"Come here," Xia Tian commanded, his eyes fixed on Evelynn. Evelynn looked up from her book, taking a moment to process his request before standing up and making her way over to him.

Despite the casual nature of their relationship, Evelynn couldn't help but feel a tinge of excitement at the thought of being in his company.

As she approached him, Xia Tian's arms reached out and pulled her onto his lap.

Evelynn's heart skipped a beat as she felt the heat from his body against hers. She could smell his cologne and feel his breath on her neck, sending shivers down her spine.

Despite being accustomed to his touch, she still found herself blushing slightly.

Xia Tian pulled her closer, his eyes locked on hers. Evelynn couldn't help but feel a sense of comfort and security in his embrace.

Nyx furrowed her brows as she watched the exchange between Xia Tian and Evelynn.

She didn't take any action, but something about the situation made her uneasy.

Xia Tian buried his head under Evelynn's neck, inhaling her scent. "So where have you been all this time?" he asked, his voice muffled.

Evelynn shivered at his touch. "I was finding a woman for you," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.

Xia Tian lifted his head, surprise etched on his face. "Finding a woman for what?" he asked, confusion in his eyes. "And when do you plan on taking over Isabelle?"

Evelynn smiled bitterly, her gaze downcast. "You told me to find a woman with a higher standard," she said softly. "I thought I was doing what you wanted."

Luo Xue couldn't help but feel a twinge of sympathy for the girl. She had been sent on a wild goose chase, all for Xia Tian's pleasure.

Xia Tian's expression softened as he looked at Evelynn. "I'm sorry," he said, reaching out to touch her cheek. "I didn't mean to confuse you. And as for Isabelle, I trust you to take over when the time is right."

Evelynn's eyes widened in surprise, and then a smile spread across her face. "Thank you, Xia Tian," she said, leaning in to kiss him.

Nyx couldn't help but roll her eyes at the nauseating display of affection in front of her. "Can you stop this act?" she said, unable to hide the irritation in her voice.

Evelynn stopped mid-gesture and shot Nyx a side-eye, sticking her tongue out playfully. "Who started it?" she quipped.

Nyx blinked, knowing she had unwittingly provoked Evelynn in the beginning. She felt a twinge of guilt, but didn't let it show.

Xia Tian couldn't help but chuckle at the playful banter between Evelynn and Nyx. It was humorous to watch the two trying to outsmart each other.

But Xia Tian knew that he would ultimately emerge victorious in any competition between them.

A sly smile crept onto his face as he watched them continue their bickering.

Suddenly, without warning, Xia Tian grabbed Evelynn and pushed her down onto the bed.

Nyx's heart raced as she felt Xia Tian's hand on her shoulder, pulling her down next to Evelynn. She was caught off guard, but the feeling of being so close to both of them was thrilling.

She could feel Evelynn's warmth next to her, and the anticipation of what was to come made her breath quicken.

"Mhhh~" Evelynn's mouth was open, ready to protest, but Xia Tian's lips silenced her. The taste of him was intoxicating, and she couldn't resist him as he deepened the kiss.

The scent of salvia flowers filled the room, adding to the already intense atmosphere.

As Xia Tian's left hand rested above Nyx's face, she felt a jolt of electricity shoot through her body. Without hesitation, she took his two fingers and began sucking on them, her moans of pleasure mixing with Evelynn's.

Evelynn moaned as she felt his warm, wet tongue exploring every inch of her mouth.

With eager enthusiasm, she reciprocated the kiss, tangling her tongue with his.

Her legs instinctively wrapped tightly around his back, pulling him closer to her as she lost herself in the moment.

She felt his lips lingering on hers, then trailing down to explore every inch of her face before finally settling on her neck.

His touch was slow and deliberate, sending shivers down her spine.

As he continued to move downward, she felt her grey dress slip away, leaving her completely exposed and vulnerable to his every touch.

As he leaned in towards her neck, Evelynn's eyes flew open in surprise, and she instinctively tried to push him away.

But it was too late. Xia Tian had already spotted the marks on her neck that trailed down to her back, and his frown deepened.

"How did you get these?" he asked, his tone stern.

Caught off guard, Evelynn struggled to come up with a plausible explanation.

She couldn't confess to everything, so she settled for a half-truth. "We fought," she muttered, hoping he wouldn't press her further.

"We?" Xia Tian's eyebrows shot up in surprise. "Who did you fight with?"

"Selene and I," Evelynn replied, hoping that would be the end of it.

Xia Tian's eyes glinted with interest. "That must have been quite a vicious fight to leave marks like these," he remarked.

Evelynn felt a chill run down her spine, sensing the underlying threat in his words. She braced herself for the punishment that was sure to come.

But to her surprise, Xia Tian chuckled and asked, "Who won?"

Nyx's eyes narrowed, while Evelynn's jaw dropped in disbelief. She couldn't believe her luck.

For a moment, she hesitated, wondering whether it was safe to tell the truth.

"Of course, the bitch lost," she snorted, her tone dripping with sarcasm.

Xia Tian couldn't contain his amusement as he looked at his daughter, who was trying her best to pass off a blatant lie.

If she had actually won the battle, he would have heard about it long before now. She was never one to keep quiet about her victories.

He turned to Nyx, his eyes narrowing as he silently questioned her. "Were you hiding this from me?" he seemed to ask, his gaze piercing.

Nyx's smile wavered momentarily before she sent him a mental message, revealing every detail of the fight.

Evelynn, completely oblivious to the exchange between her father and sister, continued to watch them with a curious gaze.

But in just a moment, Xia Tian had pieced together the whole situation. His expression was inscrutable, but his thoughts were clear.

He didn't like the idea of the Eternal Seer of Destiny playing a role in his daughters' lives.

Xia Tian's voice was sharp with annoyance as he addressed the little fairy. 'Hey, you haven't done any work as a system at all until now.'

Luo Xue, who was summoned before her master, flashed a wry smile, knowing full well that she had yet to prove her worth. [Master, the system feels useless to you], she replied, her voice tinged with regret.

Xia Tian chuckled inwardly, acknowledging the truth. He quickly put on a stern expression and demanded, 'Get me the information on the Eternal Seer of Destiny.'

The Eternal Seer had been on Xia Tian's hit list for quite some time, and Luo Xue knew that her master was serious about this request.

She could sense his hunger for the man's downfall, and it both excited and frightened her.

[I can't just casually find anyone's information, Master], Luo Xue sighed, knowing that this task would be difficult.

'Just check it,' Xia Tian insisted, his voice brooking no argument.

Luo Xue set to work, she searched for any shred of information on the elusive Eternal Seer.

She could feel the pressure mounting, knowing that her master's patience was wearing thin.

But then, to her surprise, she discovered a way for the system to retrieve information on anyone, a feature that had never existed before.

Her eyes widened in shock as she realized the implications of this discovery.

The system was evolving, becoming more powerful and advanced than ever before.

Ignoring the fact that Luo Xue herself couldn't see the information, she sent the information to Xia Tian.

Xia Tian accepted the information of the Eternal Seer of Destiny without a word.

As he gone through through the data, a smirk formed on his lips as he found an interesting piece of information.

'Daughter for a daughter,' he muttered to himself, amused by the newfound leverage he had over the Eternal Seer.

As Xia Tian's mind raced with various thoughts, Evelynn shot a curious glance at Nyx, her eyes brimming with suspicion.

She couldn't help but wonder if Nyx's presence had anything to do with Xia Tian's abrupt silence.

Was Nyx the cause of his distracted state?

But Nyx seemed unfazed by the accusatory look in Evelynn's eyes. Instead, she nonchalantly shrugged her shoulders, a sly smile tugging at the corner of her lips.

She refused to take the blame for Xia Tian's sudden aloofness, pretending to be innocent despite being caught red-handed.
