112: This Kind of Relationship Really Isn't Suitable for Sisters to Have…
Jasmine wasn't putting on an act. She was serious.
Evelia could tell even without activating her Soul Gaze.
As a fellow "older sister," Evelia could completely understand the meaning of Jasmine's words.
"A little sister is meant to be spoiled! Better to suffer yourself than let your little sister suffer! A little sister is heaven itself. Anyone who dares to bully my little sister will absolutely be beaten until they tremble at the mere sight of her!"
This was absolute sister-complex talk.
And it was terminal sister obsession too, the completely hopeless kind.
Even now, if you asked Evelia to go back and see her former little sister, she would still dote on her and indulge her every whim. The degree of pampering would only be greater than before, never less.
Therefore, from this moment on, Evelia truly believed that everything Jasmine said came from her heart. She genuinely treated Lina as the most important person in her life.
The only thing that made Evelia feel somewhat bitter was knowing Lina's current attitude toward Jasmine. She had practically come to view her as an enemy.
Although she didn't know the specific truth of what happened back then, no matter what, Evelia felt she had to help Jasmine and Lina clear up their misunderstanding. She couldn't bear to see such a doting older sister like Jasmine have such a huge rift with the little sister she loved.
"Sigh, let's not talk about that anymore. Let's go, Miss Evelia. We can't keep the practitioner waiting downstairs who's picking us up."
Jasmine sighed softly. She picked up the small bag of gifts she had prepared in advance for the orphanage children from the small sofa in her room, straightened her slightly disheveled headscarf, and prepared to head downstairs with Evelia and Amya.
"It seems there really is quite a big misunderstanding between Miss Jasmine and Lina."
On the way downstairs, Amya quietly scooted next to Evelia and whispered to her.
She had also seen the overwhelming number of Lina photos covering Jasmine's room just now. If she didn't know that Lina was already taken and that Jasmine was Lina's older sister, Amya would have thought Jasmine was an even bigger pervert than her or Lina, the ultimate stalker.
And although she didn't know about the incident between Jasmine and Lina back then like Evelia did, even she, someone who had only met Lina for the first time recently, could clearly sense the hatred and resentment toward Jasmine in Lina's words. Naturally, she could guess that there must be some serious problem between these two.
The kind that was serious enough to turn sisters against each other.
"Miss Jasmine definitely has genuine feelings for Lina on her end. The difficult part now is figuring out how to make Lina believe that what happened back then really was just a misunderstanding. After all, you know Lina's current attitude toward Jasmine. No matter what Jasmine says, she'll probably think it's just Jasmine pretending."
Evelia pinched the space between her eyebrows with a headache. From how seriously Lina had warned her last time to absolutely not believe Jasmine's words, the problem was already quite clear. The rift between these two sisters had almost reached an irreparable point.
"And even I don't know exactly what happened between Jasmine and Lina back then. I need to find a chance to ask Jasmine properly."
"Hmm? What are you two discussing? Can you tell me?"
Just then, Jasmine also noticed that Evelia and Amya had been huddled together whispering. She turned her head curiously and asked Evelia with a smile.
"Cough, cough, nothing much! Just a little small talk, that's all."
"Mm, that's right. We were just discussing what position we should use when we go home tonight."
"???"
Evelia glared at Amya with great annoyance. This shameless angel, what else could she do besides making dirty jokes and bullying her all day?!
Too wicked. She must glare at her with her eyes!
And acting like this is really not cute at all. Far less lovable than my pure, cute, clingy, and thoughtful good little sister!
Ever since witnessing Jasmine's terminal sister obsession, Evelia couldn't help but think of her own little sister. When she compared her to her former little sister, who had been so startled by her Sweet Boiled Fish yet still insisted on finishing it, and even forced a smile to say it was delicious just to keep her from feeling sad, that thoughtful little angel, the difference was staggering.
Amya didn't even compare. She was leagues behind!
Evelia thought to herself with irritation.
"You two really have such a good relationship."
Having known Evelia and Amya for two days now, Jasmine had also become accustomed to Amya's habit of constantly making suggestive remarks. Besides, she actually quite envied the relationship between Evelia and Amya.
Looking again at the relationship between herself and Lina... Sigh, better not mention it.
"If only my relationship with my Lina could be this good..."
"Um..."
Evelia felt somewhat awkward. This dynamic between her and Amya really wasn't suitable for sisters to have...
It might accidentally cross a line, you know.
……
"Lady Saint, Miss Angel, and um... this person next to them."
As soon as they came downstairs, the practitioner that Sauron had arranged in advance to pick them up came forward to greet them. The Father before Evelia's eyes, dressed in black clerical robes, looked quite young. By visual estimate, probably no older than thirty. In modern times when most Bishop positions were held by middle-aged and elderly people in their fifties and sixties, for this Father to have climbed to the position of Father at this age, he must either have exceptional talent or be an ultimate overachiever.
"This is Miss Evelia. She converted to our Church in the past two days and is also Miss Amya's... hmm... close friend?"
When introducing Evelia, Jasmine hesitated slightly. She was mainly thinking about how to describe the relationship between Evelia and Amya. If she directly said Evelia was Amya's wife, Evelia would definitely jump up in anger on the spot and bonk her head. But if she said they were just ordinary friends, this angel next to them who was constantly thinking about declaring her sovereignty would also be dissatisfied.
Therefore, in the end, Jasmine used a half-questioning tone to say the words "close friend," which was also a way of hinting that their relationship was somewhere above friends but not quite lovers.
Although from the looks of it, it was pretty much there already.
"I understand. Lady Saint, please get in the car."
The Father nodded gently, turned and opened the car door for Jasmine, and made a polite gesture inviting her in.
Jasmine seemed long accustomed to this as well. She nodded to the Father, then sat in first. The car Sauron had arranged was one of those extended luxury sedans. Generally speaking, the interior space of this kind of sedan would be quite spacious. However, due to all sorts of supplies prepared as gifts for the orphanage, there were now only two actual seats left for people to sit in.
And Jasmine had already taken one seat. Therefore, what now stood before Evelia and Amya was just a single empty seat.
