Without waiting for Jody to reply, Bill bowed again, "I'll take my leave, General Gardner." The man standing right in front of Bill instantly clenched his fists, held back his annoyance and then finally left the palace hall with anger still lumped in his chest. Strange. In all his life, he had never been this upset before. But, what that War Advisor did actually made him easily upset. Jody walked quickly towards the training building. Steven who followed right behind was already starting to worry if the general would go on another rampage there. He hoped that there weren't many guards there so that they wouldn't become the target of Jody Gardner's anger. But, fortunately, Jody's anger faded a little when he saw Dorothy Winks, one of the palace staff who was Jody's lover, inside the training building, checking the equipment of their tools that had become her duty. Steven was really relieved and immediately considered Dorothy as a saviour goddess who had saved everyone from Jody

Andrew Reece noticed the forehead of the war general he served so faithfully was furrowed and he cautiously began to speak, "Perhaps, they are not from another kingdom, General." Bill immediately turned his head and gave a questioning look in return, "No? Then where do you think they are from?" Andrew moistened his lips, trying to give a neutral but purposeful answer, "I suspect that they might be people from your neighbourhood, General." Bill sighed softly. He disagreed but still appreciated the answer given by Andrew. The young man had the courage to say his answer, so there was no reason for Bill to sneer at it. So he chose to say slowly. "Hm, I have many enemies, but I don't think anyone would dare to kill me, Reece. My enemies in Carlo Hill are just ordinary people," Bill said. "Ordinary people are also very likely to commit such acts, General," Andrew replied, still seemingly confident in his answer. However, even after hearing that, Bill still couldn't accept it. He trie

Keannu Wellington's eyes gave a look of disbelief. He even stared in bewilderment at the best general the Ans De Lou Kingdom had ever had and was even adored by all the people of Ans De Lou and trusted by his father. "General Mackenzie, of course this is very pertinent. Don't you think we can use that to destabilise the kingdom, General?" Keannu asked, suddenly filled with so much fervour that Bill could feel his excitement. Bill's brow furrowed in confusion, "You mean you intend to use this scandal to threaten or frame King Maldiva, Your Majesty? Is it really like that?" Keannu was happy that Bill finally understood his brilliant idea. "Exactly. We can use that to strike a deal with them. I'm sure they'll be unlikely to attack if they know we've got evidence of that Kingsley scandal." Keannu chuckled at the thought of that haughty king surrendering to him. It must feel so good to see your enemy bow before you, helpless. His eyes wandered far and wide, as if the King of Maldiv

"Sorry, Your Majesty. Forgive me if I have been presumptuous. But, this is my first time meeting you," Bill said. Monica frowned, a little unsure. There was no way she had the wrong person. This person standing not far from her was definitely that person. The person she had met a few years ago. Uh, it was so long ago, but the old incident was a common occurrence and she easily forgot about it. So, she was sure she could not have recognized the wrong person. In fact, the person's face had not changed. There was no significant change at all. "No, no. You're wrong, we've met before. It was at ....." The woman could not continue and soon realised she was not alone with Bill. So many bodyguards and servants were around them. If she made a wrong move, tomorrow's unpleasant gossip could spread throughout the palace. Her good reputation could be damaged and she did not want that to happen. For Monica Wilhelm, her position and reputation in front of the public was certainly the most impo

Keannu unburdenedly replied, "Of course. I've thought about what the future holds." "Are you sure?" Monica asked, clearly doubtful of her husband's words. "You doubt my word, darling?" A smile appeared on the queen's lips, "I don't know if this is a doubt or not. But one thing is for sure, I know you somehow." Keannu Wellington replied with a small chuckle but it was enough to prove that what was inside Monica's head was a little bit of the truth. "You must have thought of getting rid of one of them, right?" Monica guessed. Keannu Wellington stopped his laughter and looked at his wife intently, before replying with another chuckle that now sounded even more unpleasant to hear. The queen did not return the laughter and only stared at her husband curiously so the young king immediately replied, "You are indeed very suitable to be my wife, my queen." Monica bit her lower lip and looked away, "Isn't the reason you married me because I can understand your thoughts? I'm famous for g
