10,000x Rebate System: Every Return Makes Me Stronger
Chapter 178: Felicia and Ambrosia [2]
Amon slowly opened his mouth again. "What kind of sick fuck do you think I am?"
Felicia raised an eyebrow while keeping the phone pointed toward them.
"The type of sick fuck who is good at hiding that he’s a sick fuck."
Amon’s nose scrunched slightly at her answer, but he decided not to reply.
Arguing with her when she had already made up her mind about something was usually a waste of energy.
Felicia asked again. "So, how was my sister?"
Amon thought about Marielle for a moment before answering honestly. "She’s naive in a cute way."
Felicia immediately gave him a disgusted look.
Amon noticed her expression and raised both hands defensively. "What? I was just giving her a compliment."
"You should just stay away from her."
"I can’t do that. She’s my teacher."
As he said that, Amon raised hand behind Felicia’s head and silently made a pair of devil horns with his fingers.
Ambrosia noticed what he was doing but said nothing, while Felicia remained unaware for a moment.
Then she suddenly reached toward Amon’s side and placed her hand against him.
Amon’s eyes widened.
A soft wave of frost immediately spread through his clothes and sent a sudden chill through his body.
"Ah!"
He jerked away from her and rubbed his side.
Felicia calmly lowered her hand. "You should be careful."
Amon stared at her. "Careful of whom?"
Felicia glanced toward him with her pale golden eyes. "Marielle is really bad at sharing things."
Amon blinked. "Was she a bully when she was young?"
Felicia’s expression became slightly nostalgic. "She was. She used to bully people quite a bit, but I protected her from anyone I thought was evil."
Amon narrowed his eyes. "Maybe she was the evil one who bullied everyone else."
Felicia shrugged. "That doesn’t matter much to me."
Amon looked at her for a moment before a mischievous smile appeared on his face. "So, are you going to save me from the big bully?"
Felicia slowly turned toward him.
Her pale golden eyes met his, and the teasing expression disappeared from her face. "You’ll regret getting too close to her."
Amon’s smile widened. "I’d like to see what you can do to me."
Felicia stared at him for another moment before a faint smile appeared on her lips.
"I’ll use you like a boytoy and throw you away when I’m finished."
Amon smiled quietly. "I’d love to break that arrogance of yours."
Felicia simply smiled. She didn’t say anything else as she turned around and walked toward Ambrosia.
Amon watched her leave before shaking his head. ’This woman really enjoyed provoking me.’
Felicia stopped beside Ambrosia and glanced at the phone. "We need another picture from a different angle. After that, we can submit them."
Ambrosia nodded and began adjusting the camera.
Amon looked between them. "Are you going to court instead of home?"
Ambrosia smiled apologetically. "Sorry, honey, but I’ll need some time. There are still several documents I need to prepare before I can submit everything."
Amon sighed. "Then I guess I’ll go home alone."
Ambrosia gave him an apologetic smile.
"I’ll see you later."
Amon nodded before glancing toward Felicia.
She merely gave him a small smile.
For some reason, that smile made him feel like he had just walked into another problem.

After taking several more pictures with Felicia, Amon eventually left the construction site and returned to the city alone.
The journey back was considerably quieter than the trip there, and Amon spent most of the time thinking about Felicia’s strange warning.
He still wasn’t sure what exactly she had meant by it.
Marielle didn’t seem like someone who would become possessive over another person, but then again, Amon had only known her for a short time.
There were still plenty of things he didn’t know about Felicia’s younger sister.
By the time he arrived at his apartment, the sun had already high.
Amon stepped out of the vehicle, walked toward the entrance, and unlocked the door with his keys.
The familiar smell of the apartment greeted him as soon as he stepped inside.
He closed the door behind himself and took a few steps forward.
Before he could even put his keys away, he heard movement coming from the kitchen.
Someone stepped into the hallway.
Amon looked over and Sidney froze when she saw him.
Her face immediately lit up. "Big brother!"
She ran toward him without hesitation.
Amon barely had time to react before Sidney jumped into his arms and wrapped herself around him, using her legs to cling to him like a koala.
Amon stumbled backward slightly from the sudden impact before laughing. "Hey, slow down."
Sidney ignored him and held on tightly. "I missed you!"
Amon smiled and hugged her back, placing his hands around her waist to keep her supported. "I was only gone for a few days."
"That’s still too long."
"You’ve become very dramatic."
Sidney finally loosened her grip, and Amon carefully lowered her back onto the floor.
She looked up at him with a bright smile. "Did you bring me anything?"
Amon’s expression became mysterious. "Actually, I did."
Sidney’s eyes immediately widened with interest. "What is it?"
Amon pointed toward the living room.
"Sit down first."
Sidney narrowed her eyes suspiciously.
"Why?"
"Because I said so."
She looked at him for another second before walking toward the sofa. "Fine."
Sidney sat down and leaned forward slightly, her curiosity becoming more obvious with every passing second.
Amon walked over and sat across from her.
Sidney immediately looked at him expectantly.
"So?"
Amon smiled and looked at her face.
He gently removed her hair away and cupped her cheeks and gave her a kiss on her lips.
Sidney immediately blushed at the sudden contact and whispered. "Big brother."
Amon looked at her for a long second before he said. "I will ask you this once."
He let go of her face and brought out the chain from his bracelet.
Sidney got serious as well as her smile turned dim.
Amon drew in a deep breath and said. "Would you be my wife?"
"Yes!" She yelled from the top of her lungs. "Yes! Yes! Yes!!"
Amon let out a soft chuckle. "Alright settle down."
He glanced at the system and after making sure she was registered as a wife, Amon placed the chain on her neck.
Sidney smiled at it and looked up at him with glossy eyes. Amon looked back as well.
They kissed once again without thinking of anything else.
