Chapter 3770 Honoring You
However, Gloria knew that her position in the Void Sect was not yet secure and that it was best to keep a low profile. Gloria knew better than to attract too much attention when she was not strong enough to fend for herself. Hence, she tried her best to mask her true abilities.
Even so, Primo still thought highly of her. Ever since Gloria had agreed to his marriage proposal, Primo had visited her more often. “Gloria, you’re getting more and more beautiful. I can’t wait to tie the knot with you,” Primo said with a huge grin on his face.
There was a hint of obsession in his eyes as he said so. “Primo, you’re such a sweet talker,” Gloria said coquettishly. Primo practiced the Hedonistic Sword Technique, so naturally, he was quickly infatuated with Gloria.
On top of the fact that Gloria’s abilities were still improving, it would not take her much effort to seduce the man. Her Charm Technique stoked the fiery lust already burning inside Primo as a result of him practicing the Hedonistic Sword Technique.
If it were not for Gloria claiming that she was feeling under the weather these few days, Primo would have taken her. “Gloria, I’m really sincere. If you don’t believe me, feel me right here!”
Primo grabbed Gloria’s seemingly fragile and small hands and placed them on his chest. “Primo, I’m still worried. Will I get ostracized by the others as you indulge me so much?” Gloria asked in a worried tone.
“They wouldn’t dare,” Primo said coldly. “Just tell me who dares to do that to you. I will immediately chase the person out of my place.”
“You’re so good to me, Primo,” Gloria said coquettishly. Even though Gloria said so, she was sighing inwardly.
She had not expected Primo’s proposal to come so fast, especially since she reckoned she could maintain their ambiguous relationship until she penetrated the upper echelons of the Void Sect.
Primo kept bringing up the wedding reception. However, Gloria had been delaying the reception on the pretext of wanting to choose an auspicious date.
However, since Primo brought it up so often, Gloria ran out of excuses. I didn’t even have the time to plan everything out yet. Gloria could not help but lament to herself. She had planned to secure her position in the Void Sect before expanding her control over it.
However, she had not even been able to meet the master of the Void Sect until now, and she was nowhere close to finding out about Void Sect’s true abilities.
There was no way she could carry on with the next step of her plan. The most pressing problem at hand was that she had yet to achieve the desired level of skill. Not only would she not be able to achieve her plans if she carried on hastily, but it would also lead to the Void Sect attacking her.
In view of Primo’s continuous attempts of trying to consummate the marriage, one or two attempts at delaying the wedding would not be a problem.
However, if she continued to do so, Primo might grow resentful and turn against her in the end. Gloria was overwhelmed with a sense of helplessness right then.
“Gloria, the auspicious date that I’ve picked out is approaching. You will be my most prized partner then. I reckon you have no more excuses this time, right?”
Primo brought the topic of the wedding up yet again as he eyed Gloria with a fiery gaze.
“Primo, are you saying that I’ve been coming up with excuses then? Marriage is one of the most important decisions a woman will make in her life. It is only natural that I’m taking my time to ruminate over it. But, I am so happy that you have been so patient and considerate toward me all this time. I’ll follow your arrangements, Primo.”
Gloria knew there was no way she could talk herself out of the matter this time. Hence, she relented and agreed.
Besides, she would only gain access to more resources for cultivation if she was Primo’s woman.
Moreover, Primo was the next-in-line successor of the Void Sect. As long as she held an important position in his heart, Gloria knew that control over the Void Sect was a matter of time.
“Great!”
Primo was overjoyed and said, “Don’t worry, Gloria. All the other women will surely respect and honor you. Nobody will dare to offend you.”
“I believe you will make the best arrangement, Primo,” Gloria said coyly.
She was maximizing her Charm Technique, and Primo was hopelessly captivated by her.
