Violetta stood there silently for several seconds before she finally lowered her head. "I understand what you mean, Master."

Damian began to smile, thinking his acting had finally touched her heart.

But before he could feel happy, Violetta suddenly turned around quietly and slowly walked back toward her room without another word.

Damian frowned when he saw this, and only after she completely entered her room did he sigh. "Damn... this is really troublesome."

Damian now didn’t know whether his acting had fully worked or not.

Since Violetta didn’t say anything at all, it meant he couldn’t tell whether this was good or bad.

At this moment, Damian could only return to his room and rub his forehead helplessly.

He absolutely couldn’t afford to lose Violetta’s fifty-times multiplier, because her multiplier was just that effective for him.

Everything he currently had, his spiritual root, martial arts, and resources, had all come from Violetta.

If her emotions toward him truly changed negatively... then his future growth would suffer massively.

Damian could only click his tongue. "Damn it... what the hell should I do now?"

For the first time since obtaining the system, Damian actually felt somewhat nervous.

Because of this incident, Damian no longer even dared to think about going to brothels again for now.

Even though he still technically had four weekly gifting chances remaining, he completely ignored them.

Compared to Violetta’s multiplier, the brothel girls honestly no longer mattered much.

Right now, the only thing Damian wanted was for Violetta to calm down and return to normal again.

Soon, Damian slowly leaned back while staring silently toward the ceiling. Hours quietly passed, but even then, he still couldn’t sleep at all.

The next morning, Damian slowly walked out of his room with heavy dark circles beneath his eyes.

He had barely slept all night because his mind kept thinking back to Violetta’s reaction.

Now that morning had come, he headed toward the garden to get some fresh air and morning light, and unexpectedly, Violetta was already there.

The moment she saw Damian’s exhausted appearance, her expression instantly changed slightly, especially when she noticed the dark circles beneath his eyes.

For a moment, guilt appeared inside her heart because she clearly knew that Damian had ended up like this because of her.

Violetta quickly lowered her head slightly. "I’m sorry, Master. To think I made you uncomfortable because of my emotions."

Damian blinked slightly afterward before slowly sighing and sitting down.

After thinking the entire night, he had already decided what to say, so he directly looked toward Violetta before speaking honestly.

"I’m sorry too, Violetta. I never thought that me going to brothels would affect you this much."

Violetta silently lowered her gaze afterward.

Meanwhile, Damian slowly continued while rubbing his forehead. "But... I’m sorry, gifting women has already somewhat become a habit."

Violetta’s body stiffened slightly after hearing that.

Damian noticed it, but he didn’t avoid her gaze. Instead, he looked straight into her eyes. "And honestly, I probably can’t completely stop."

Then Damian suddenly laughed bitterly afterward. "After all, you’re my disciple because I liked your beauty too, and since I’ve already said that, I’ll be honest."

He could only sigh, lowering his head for a moment before lifting it again. "I’m still a man at the end of the day, and just like other men, I’m weak toward beauty, so..."

The atmosphere became quiet afterward.

But strangely, Violetta no longer felt as hurt hearing it now, because Damian wasn’t trying to fool her anymore.

Damian was honestly telling her everything directly, and Violetta decided to hear everything first before deciding anything.

"But don’t worry, Violetta. You’re my disciple and the most important one to me, so I won’t disrespect you or treat you carelessly."

Violetta quietly listened while slowly calming down, and at this moment, she realized that she might have been the main problem here.

She realized that she had no right to control Damian’s life, as she wasn’t like that man who wanted to control everything.

If she began to think like that, how could she be any different from the man she wanted revenge on?

Damian had already sacrificed and given her far too much, and compared to that, what was the problem with him liking beautiful women?

Even powerful emperors and great cultivators often had many wives and concubines.

This kind of thing was honestly completely normal within the cultivation world.

Thanks to all of that, Violetta slowly lowered her head, accepting it all fully. Strangely enough, her heart even felt better than before.

Because in the end, as long as she still remained important within Damian’s heart, she didn’t care about anything else anymore.

Violetta bowed her head and spoke softly. "I’m truly sorry, Master. Because of me, you couldn’t even sleep at night."

Then Violetta raised her head and looked him in the eyes. "This time... I won’t interfere in your life anymore."

The moment those words entered his ears, Damian instantly frowned inwardly. His thoughts immediately became chaotic.

"Wait... Don’t tell me she doesn’t want me anymore? Is she planning to leave later?"

At this moment, Damian became slightly nervous again, because if Violetta truly decided to leave him...

Then his greatest treasure chest might genuinely disappear, and before Damian could say a single thing, Violetta suddenly continued.

"I said I won’t care anymore, Master... but promise me one thing..."

Damian swallowed and focused fully on her words, preparing for any countermeasure that might keep her by his side. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Meanwhile, Violetta’s voice became quieter afterward. "Promise me... that I will still remain important in your heart."

The moment Damian heard that, he didn’t really focus properly, so he just blurted out whatever appeared in his head naturally.

"Violetta, don’t leave me... You’re literally my greatest treasure. I can’t live without you."

Right after he said that, Damian froze completely, closing his mouth. He never expected to say something like that right in front of her.

But on the other hand, Violetta was surprised to hear it, and this time, she smiled genuinely once again.

"Master, to think that you even consider me your greatest treasure... Thank you, Master."

Meanwhile, Damian himself suddenly froze slightly after hearing those words.

Because somehow... that sentence sounded strangely dangerous coming from her mouth.

And before he could think even further, Violetta continued. "So this time... it doesn’t matter anymore if Master goes to brothels. After all, I am still your treasure."

Damian immediately became speechless.

Meanwhile, Violetta herself quietly bowed slightly afterward before calmly turning around and returning to her room peacefully.

Now Damian was left there alone, completely confused about what the hell had just happened.
