Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 149: Convincing Claire

Evelynn came inside and guiltily put her head down, not able to face her mother-in-law's smiling gaze.Claire frowned, she suddenly grasped Evelynn's robes and spread it as her eyes widened in anger. She turned to Davis and coldly asked, "Who did this?""Sasha Claymore and Vanis Claymore, I killed the both of them!" Coldness flashed through his eyes as he replied.Pah!Claire slapped him and shouted, "How could you let this happen? Weren't you arrogant? Not even opting to take bodyguards with you!"Davis put his head down in shame and regret but felt a little happy. Only his mother would dare to punish him while no one even dared to even offend him. In this case, he was in the wrong and felt that he totally deserved this slap!Even though the slap echoed like thunder in the room, it did not hurt one bit for him. Knowing that his mother held back, he smiled in his heart.Diana and Edward stopped playing and they hugged each other while watching the ongoing spectacle with a scared expression on their faces.Evelynn hurriedly stood in front of him and explained, "Mother-in-law! It was my fault! Husband wasn't present at that time! If not, how could he let this happen?""You two!" Claire pointed at the both of them in anger, but her anger slightly dissipated when she heard Evelynn call Davis, her husband. Follow current on novelenglish.net

Evelynn didn't even realise that she called Davis her husband in the heat of the moment. If she had known, then she might've been engulfed by the embarrassment. After all, she and Davis only call each other husband and wife when they're alone.Claire calmed down and glared at Davis for a while before she started to comfort Evelynn with some optimistic views and speeches. She had personally admired Evelynn's character and courage to stand up before them when they had tested her.Once she had finished her comforting speech, she looked at Davis and berated, "Be more good to her!"Davis nodded his head. He hesitated for a moment before he opened his mouth "Mother, what exactly is happening outside?"Claire's expression immediately changed before a slight sigh escaped her mouth, "Your father had an illegitimate child with a woman, and it looks like it was way before he met me...""I saw that child. Eh... does that make him my elder brother?" Davis asked as he scratched his head.Technically, it would, but he couldn't find it in his heart to accept an elder brother who suddenly came out from nowhere.Claire glared daggers at him before she uttered with a harrumph, "It does make him your elder brother..."Davis looked at his mother's expression and thought, 'Looks like she is really angry... But why does she keep sighing all the time?'"What's your opinion on it?" Davis spread his hands as he questioned. He wanted to know what she thought on that matter so he could act appropriately.Claire's expression alternated between anger and helplessness, a moment later she sighed again, "I would've made a mincemeat out of him if he were to an affair, but that woman, that matter happened way before he even met me. I can't really blame him, could I?" Follow current on novel-online.com

Davis relaxed, "You still did not go meet father?"Claire laughed in anger, "Hah! Are you kidding me? Afraid that I will kill her, he has been staying with that woman all this time!"Davis laughed internally, 'It's a miracle that he didn't escape after knowing your temper.'Exhaling a second, she continued, "Besides, that woman is ill.""Ill?" Davis narrowed his eyes.She nodded and explained, "Yes, apparently, her son, who is named Ernest, barged his way to the Royal Castle to save his mother by borrowing the help of the Royal Family. How touching! isn't it? Except we don't know if he has any schemes in store for us..."Davis laughed, "We don't have to worry about that, we have Clara after all."Thinking about it for a moment, Claire smiled, "Hmm... You're right..."Davis hesitated for a moment before he asked, "What about that woman's illness?""It has been treated, she's becoming healthy slowly." A vague amount of displeasure could be seen in her eyes.Davis could see his mother's wish for the other woman to die but he didn't say anything about it, "So, did father come to meet you?"

Claire smiled like a playful girl, "He did, a lot, but I didn't allow him inside." She looked as if she was having fun taking revenge on him for this mess.Hearing that, Davis's expression turned serious, "Mother, if you don't talk wholeheartedly with father, only misunderstandings will ensue from here on out." Though he felt that Logan deserved it.Claire went silent for a moment as her face changed. She then sighed, "I understand, I'll talk with him today...""Good, I'll leave this mess to your mother, but if my so-called elder brother does anything funny, I'll kill him before he could even succeed." Davis declared in a cold tone, his eyes emitting a faint killing intent.Claire looked at his cold demeanour and felt a faint chill passing through her spine. She couldn't believe that this was her son, who would be so warm to her at all times.She wondered in worry, 'Is his old personality returning back to him? It's like he returned back to the time when he was cold to her gentle and warm, embrace. Exactly like during the first week of his return when he was 3-years old.'But before she could say anything, his demeanour turned calm, and smiled as he said, "Time is of the essence, I have to go to the secret entrance in a month's time."Claire stopped what she was going to say, instead sighed as she knew that this day would come, one way or another. She can't expect him to act like her child every time, it was wishful thinking on her part."Why do you keep sighing mother? Just go speak with father and conclude the matter." Davis said exasperatedly.Claire chuckled slightly as if she knew it all, "I'll take care of that, you don't need to worry about it. Stay here for a day and then leave, you're already quite late to make it to that place anyway. Just take the Golden-Horned Wyvern again..."Davis chuckled and glanced at Evelynn. He then informed his mother that Evelynn will stay in this Royal Castle.Claire accepted and assigned his own Study as her room.Davis glanced at his mother with a thankful expression on his face. He knew it was unknown whether if he would return or even successfully reach the other side. Not only that, but plenty of dangers ensued the other side of the realm.He still didn't inform Evelynn of his intentions, that he would not be simply going to the secret realm to hunt but to cross the other side."By the way, do you have the marriage agreement?" Davis asked as his eyes shot wide open before it turned normal. He had almost forgotten about this matter.
