Chapter 7: Even the Blind are Cautious
“Little fool” Adele leaned her delicate body against the car window.
Her light pink pupils half-open, a dazed and fragile appearance.
She would often look at the city’s neon lights in the falling evening outside the window, and often look at herself.
Hermione could see clearly from the rearview mirror.
As her spiritual power’s influence in her mind gradually faded.
The girl would only become more and more awake.
More and more… hating her, right?
Even though she knew Adele detested the Sequence Ones’ spiritual suppression.
With the rising flames in her heart, Hermione couldn’t help her temper.
She was the queen of frost, supposed to be cold and aloof.
Yet time and time again, her emotions were disturbed and her heart became hot because of someone.
Stepping hard on the brakes, the traffic light in front of Hermione flashed.
Adele felt a violent vibration.
Then, as if waking from a long dream.
The girl’s breathing quickened, her eyes panicked.
She couldn’t help but curl up her weak body, as if this could give her a less frightening sense of security.
She began to observe her surroundings.
Car, inside Hermione’s car.
Her expression was as if recalling.
Hermione crawled towards her…
After that, she knew nothing!
Adele’s acting was so good, Hermione couldn’t see through it, her mood anxious and twisted.
Adele… was going to hate her.
Hermione’s mood became agitated.
But the red light in front made her have to stop in this difficult silence.
Hermione in the driver’s seat.
Hermione didn’t dare to look at her.
But she could almost imagine the fragility and sadness in her eyes.
Adele opened her mouth as if wanting to say something.
But in the end, she couldn’t say it.
Outside the window, a cold drizzle started falling.
Just like her mood turning gloomy.
Listening to the sound of rain, Adele closed her tired eyes.
As if she had already accepted her fate.
The moment the red light ended and the green light came on.
Hermione started the engine as if venting, roaring into the distance.
The traffic control officer stretched out a hand in confusion, clearly not raindrops but ice crystals falling on it one by one.
“Is it hailing… strange.”
This abnormal weather condition only lasted for a short period of time.
Since that silver-blue luxury car left.
…………………
Underground in the villa, Hermione’s exclusive garage.
The bright white incandescent light illuminated a dozen luxury cars and supercars of various styles and colors.
Hermione parked her favorite one in the center position.
She roughly turned off the engine, then stepped out of the driver’s seat in her high heels.
She opened the back door, her gaze falling on the girl’s dazed appearance.
Adele looked around as if attracted by those luxury cars.
But Hermione knew, how could she possibly be the kind of woman who could be bought with material wealth…
“Get out, don’t tell me you need my help.”
Hermione’s voice was a bit cold.
“…”
Only then did Adele come back to her senses in a daze.
Her expression was a bit embarrassed.
Hoping that her appearance of being in a daze while looking at the cars just now hadn’t been discovered by Hermione.
Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing.
But when she entered the garage and saw those supercars and luxury cars, her eyes really went straight!
Who let her be inexperienced.
Thinking that casually selling one of the cars here would be enough for her to live a worry-free life…
Hermione was a wealthy big sister worthy of the title!
Thinking of this, Adele’s determination to win Hermione over increased a few points in her heart.
Faced with Hermione’s urging, Adele was originally going to lift her leg to get out of the car.
But then, she suddenly remembered something, a cunning glint flashing from the corner of her eye.
“…My legs, a bit weak.”
Adele quickly entered the role, saying it in a voice as cool as rain.
In her gaze was a subtle sadness, looking at Hermione.
Then avoiding as if escaping. The girl’s hand explored under her skirt.
As if wanting to make a final confirmation.
Confirming if the reason her legs were weak was because she had already been…
Hermione was stunned seeing this, but when she reacted.
Her face instantly turned a shameful red.
She grabbed Adele’s snow-white slender wrist.
She didn’t pay attention and used too much force, eliciting a cry of pain from Adele.
“It hurts…!”
Hermione actually thought of “apologizing” at that moment.
But Adele was clearly just the lowest Sequence Five vampire.
The hand gripping Adele’s wrist subconsciously loosened a bit.
Then she coldly explained for herself.
“I didn’t do anything to your body.”
“I’m a Sequence One, you should clearly recognize your identity, you’re not even worth me…”
Although she said that, Hermione’s expression was very easy to understand, looking stubborn.
“…I understand.”
Adele interrupted Hermione’s words, her tone a bit soft.
Then, she looked down at her thin and long legs.
“If you understand then get out yourself.”
Hermione seemed to have lost patience.
“Then let go, I’ll get out myself…”
Adele’s tone was soft and even had a hint of coquettishness.
Hermione thought it was an illusion and couldn’t find a reason to refute for a moment.
She hesitantly let go of Adele’s wrist.
The girl lightly stepped down from the back seat of the luxury car, her footsteps very light, with an uncertain and uneasy appearance, like a little deer in the forest.
Perhaps it was because of her low status that she was worried about dirtying the floor of her garage.
Hermione thought this way and glanced at Adele’s feet.
The floor was smooth as new, bright as a mirror, reflecting everything on the ground as if another world had been born out of thin air.
Hermione knew a True Ancestor possessed the ability to travel in the mirror world.
She didn’t know if that Sequence One had such an ability.
Hermione didn’t have many friends in the Sequence One circle because of her aloof and proud personality.
But the focus at the moment wasn’t this.
But in that world reflected like a bright mirror.
Reflecting the girl’s tender ankles, reflecting the girl’s slender fair calves, fluttering skirt.
Reflecting the pure white color, soft fabric…
Hermione suddenly felt a heat rushing to her nose.
Adele was still looking at her with a curious and innocent face.
Completely unaware of what she had already exposed.
“Hermione… why did you stop?”
“N-nothing!”
Hermione tried to put on a serious appearance and forcefully turned her head, walking towards the nearby elevator.
Her high heels tapping on the floor in a hurry, making a “clack clack clack” sound.
Adele was sweet, soft, seductive, and unaware.
It took Hermione a long time to clear the distracting thoughts from her mind.
And at this moment, Adele was quietly following behind Hermione.
A well-behaved and pure, lovely appearance.
But actually, in her heart, she was slightly dissatisfied and mumbling.
Why are you, Hermione, an ice queen…
Wearing safety shorts? Why bother with safety shorts when even a blind person would be wary of you?”
