Cheat Awakening

Chapter 342. Kitchen Conversations

"What do you think they're doing in there? It's been two hours, but there's no movement," Sylphy asked Aisha, who was preparing breakfast for everyone. She sat on the dining table, boredom and impatience evident on her face.

Aisha replied casually, chopping vegetables, "How would I know? Haven't I been with them the whole time?"

"But aren't you curious about what they're talking about for so long? I even tricked Waffle into going there and eavesdropping on their conversation, but he said he couldn't hear anything. he tried to open the door but it was also locked from the inside," Sylphy spoke with a frown, always suspecting Myne and Maya were hiding something serious from them.

Aisha shook her head. "No, I'm not curious, and it doesn't really matter. If you truly want to know what they're discussing, just ask them directly. You know Myne's personality; as long as you know how to make him happy, he'll spill everything easily.

Though there's a high chance more than half of what he says will be fabricated." She kept the last sentence to herself, knowing such knowledge was better left unshared, too many people knowing about it would only trouble Myne.

"Well, that makes sense," Sylphy conceded. "By the way, are you going first tonight?" She tilted her head, a hint of nervousness in her voice.

Aisha paused upon hearing Sylphy's question. Taking a deep breath, she spoke calmly, "Sigh, you can go first. I'm not in a hurry." Of course, this was a lie, one that even Aisha herself didn't believe. After all, being a woman, she naturally cared about such things the most. However, as the elder wife, she felt it was her responsibility to ensure everyone's happiness, even if it came at a cost.

It is simply inevitable.

Sylphy jumped from her chair in excitement. "Great, thank you, Aisha! You're the best!" She embraced Aisha tightly and planted a sweet kiss on her cheek.

"You're interrupting my work. And there's no need for thanks," Aisha gently pushed Sylphy away with a shrug and continued her work with an expressionless face, as if not talking to her husband, who had been missing for a few months, and receiving comfort and praise she deserve from him wasn't a big deal.

"Haaan, hoo," Aisha exhaled deeply. "By the way, what did you find out from Ayri? You had that heart-to-heart talk with her, right? Who's the culprit then?" She asked, trying to change the topic so she wouldn't feel too bad.

"It was that b*tch named Jenny. She's Ayri's personal maid. At first, Ayri was unwilling to talk to me about it, you know this is the first time she's tried to hide something from me. But then I threatened to stop providing magic water, only then did she break down and tell me everything.

It turns out that one day she went to call Jenny in her room, but she was taking a bath, so Ayri decided to wait a bit in her room."

"There, she found a book on her bed, and curiously, she started reading it to kill time. However, she didn't expect that it wasn't a simple book, but an adult-content picture book filled with all kinds of dirty things. Naturally, Ayri became curious, and when Jenny discovered it, instead of reporting it, she tried to manipulate Ayri and provide her with more such books.

"Breakfast is ready. Let's go see what they are doing. If they don't respond, then we have a valid reason to break into the bedroom now."

Sylphy, who was about to ask more about Aisha's family, easily gets distracted by Aisha.

"Yes, let's go. I am dying to know what they are doing." Sylphy nodded and quickly walked toward the stairs, followed by Aisha, who breathed a sigh of relief, seeing she had fooled Sylphy, which wasn't difficult given that Sylphy was never one to use her brain too much, except when she was too serious.

Knock-knock...

"Myne, come out. Breakfast is ready!"

Knock-knock.

"They are not responding," Sylphy turned to Aisha. "Should we break in? Mother-in-law won't be angry, right?" She asked, after not getting any response from Myne's side.

"Mother-in-law is not an unreasonable woman. Has she ever troubled you for no reason? Why are you so scared of her?" Aisha shook her head helplessly. During the time when Myne was missing, Sylphy had locked herself in the room and only came out when Maya called her.

Otherwise, Maya forcibly entered the room and dragged her out like a chicken, leaving no room for negotiation, which left a deep psychological shadow in Sylphy's heart.

"Sorry, but I can't help it. She is just too serious, especially when she stares continuously. The aura and pressure she exudes is no different than Waffle's mother." Sylphy replied nervously and moved away from the door.

"Sometimes it's really hard to believe that you are a princess..."

"Ex-princess," Sylphy corrected immediately.

"Yes, ex-princess. Sigh, I am surrounded by children in this family," Aisha rubbed her forehead in exasperation and took out the keys to the room. Thankfully, it was not locked with magic; otherwise, it's hard to say whether this door would have had to be changed.

Aisha put away the keys and opened the door. But upon seeing the sight inside, both she and Sylphy couldn't help but frozen in shock and disbelief at the sight before them.
