Chapter 359: Chapter359-Ordinary Life Is So Blissful!

"Wow! What a beautiful little courtyard!"

A delighted smile blossomed across Kate’s face. It was in a girl’s nature to be unable to resist beautiful things.

Strictly speaking, this was the first time she had ever come into such close contact with roses.

She gently bent down, bringing the tip of her nose close to the petals. The warm breath she exhaled caused the roses to sway softly, making them look like tiny fairies dancing among the flowers.

"Thank you very much, Evelyn. I really like this courtyard. In return, I can let you live a little longer."

The corners of Evelyn’s mouth twitched slightly.

"Well, I truly must thank you for that! Come on. Let’s go inside and take a look first!"

Evelyn pushed open the door. The interior of the house was just as clean and tidy as the courtyard outside. Although the furniture looked somewhat old, every single piece had been kept exceptionally clean.

The marble floor gleamed brightly under the light. Even though no one had lived here for quite some time, there was not a speck of dust anywhere. It was obvious that Evelyn occasionally came here to clean the place herself.

"Evelyn, this place is wonderful!"

Like an excited young girl, Kate spun around the room several times, her graceful movements almost resembling a dance.

Only then did she finally sit down on the sofa. With a casual movement, she took two cups of iced Snow King drinks out of her storage space and handed one of them to Evelyn.

"What a wonderful place. I feel as though I am already beginning to understand the joy of living."

Evelyn accepted the drink, took a sip, and sat down opposite Kate.

"So, what is your next plan? Are you going to find a job like an ordinary person, or..."

"No, no, no. I want to enjoy this wonderful life first."

As Kate spoke, she activated the energy projection, intending to search for an interesting show to watch.

She had already planned everything out in advance. She wanted to properly experience the everyday routine of an ordinary person relaxing at home.

However, even after taking the controller into her hands, she had no idea what to watch. After all, she had never experienced this sort of life before.

Fortunately, Evelyn, who was sitting beside her, patiently explained how to use all the household appliances. She even thoughtfully recommended a large number of entertaining anime series to her.

Kate was like a blank sheet of paper. It did not take long before she was completely swept away by the vast and colorful world of entertainment.

A full two hours passed.

By then, it was already approaching noon. Suddenly, a string of rumbling noises came from Kate’s stomach.

Kate rubbed her belly and looked at Evelyn with slight embarrassment.

"Evelyn, could you tell me how I should order some food delivery?"

"This anime is far too interesting. I don’t want to stop watching it, so..."

Evelyn smiled gently. At the same time, she took a brand-new communicator out of her storage space and handed it to Kate.

"This is for you. With a communicator, you can order any food delivery you want. Of course, since today is your welcome celebration, it will be my treat!"

Kate froze slightly as she stared at the communicator Evelyn was offering her. For a moment, she did not know how she was supposed to react.

After all, she had already told Evelyn that she intended to kill her in the future.

Yet Evelyn was still treating her so kindly.

What was she supposed to do now?!

At this moment, Kate’s little brain completely short-circuited.

Evelyn, on the other hand, merely smiled and pressed the communicator into Kate’s hand.

"Don’t worry. You do not need to feel anxious over this. Matters of destiny can be left for the future to resolve. At the very least, right now, we are friends, aren’t we?"

Kate thought about it for a moment and realized that Evelyn’s words did seem to make some sense.

Silently, she added several more years to Evelyn’s lifespan in her heart before finally accepting the communicator.

However, she still took out the amethyst card Caelan had given her from her storage space.

"Evelyn, I think I should give you some gold coins. After all, the communicator..."

Evelyn waved her hand dismissively, looking completely unconcerned.

"It is only a communicator. There is no need to make things so troublesome. Besides, Caelan really was far too careless. What use is it to give you nothing more than an amethyst card?"

"Doesn’t he know that an amethyst card can only be used to withdraw gold coins, and that each withdrawal has to be at least one hundred thousand gold coins? You would never need that much money for ordinary daily life. On top of that, you would still need to exchange the gold coins for paper currency, and then you would also have to..."

Evelyn went on to explain a long series of procedures, almost completely confusing Kate in the process.

Never in her wildest dreams would Kate have imagined that simply exchanging currency could involve so many complicated steps.

It seemed...

Her dear brother was not quite as dependable as she had believed!

Just as she was thinking this, Evelyn suddenly changed her tone.

"Still... I suppose this is not entirely your brother’s fault. After all, with the kind of life he lives, he probably never needs to worry about such minor matters."

"Forget it, forget it. Keep those gold coins stored away for now. The daily life of an ordinary person has no need for things like that. I have some paper currency here. You can keep it for the time being. Remember the exchange rate: one gold coin is equivalent to ten thousand bills. Do you understand?"

Like a caring older sister, Evelyn thoughtfully arranged everything Kate might need. She even transferred ten million directly to Kate as pocket money.

Although Kate’s amethyst card still contained several tens of billions of gold coins lying quietly inside it, that did not prevent her from feeling a kind of sisterly affection from Evelyn.

At this moment, Kate began to struggle with herself once again.

Perhaps... she should extend Big Sister Evelyn’s lifespan by another five hundred years? She could always kill her after those five hundred years had passed...

No, perhaps she could think about this from a different angle.

If she simply allowed Big Sister Evelyn to die naturally of old age, would that count, in some way, as helping her brother fulfill the destined battle between them?

Kate shook her head slightly. Then she lowered her gaze and spoke in a quiet voice.

"I understand now, Big Sister Evelyn. Thank you very much for helping me."

"Uh..."

Evelyn had not expected Kate to suddenly start calling her "Big Sister."

However, when she saw that the faint estrangement and hostility in Kate’s eyes had already disappeared, she immediately realized that Kate’s attitude toward her had undergone a fundamental change.

The smile on Evelyn’s face became much more sincere as well.

"There is no need to thank me. What would you like to eat for lunch? If you do not have any good ideas, I can give you some suggestions!"

Kate hugged a pink teddy bear to her chest, her gaze still firmly fixed on the projection, as though she could not bear to look away from it.

"I don’t know, Big Sister Evelyn. You can choose!"

"All right, then. I’ll decide for you!"

...

Half an hour later, Kate stared at the dining table in front of her with an utterly astonished expression.

At this very moment, the table was covered with all kinds of incredibly tempting food.

Burgers, fried chicken, pizza, french fries...

Kate swore to the heavens that she had never seen any of these things in her entire life.

However, that did absolutely nothing to stop an intense appetite from rising within her!

"Try some. Perhaps you will like them!"

"Oh, right. This is the one I recommend the most. Try it and tell me whether you like it!"

As Evelyn spoke, she picked up a delicate little cake and held it out in front of Kate.

Kate carefully took a bite.

Her eyes instantly lit up. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
