Chapter 60: Misunderstanding
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Antoninus's words caught Marcus off guard. Marcus turned pale, raised an eyebrow, and after a moment, nodded with a twitch of his lips, "Of course."
"Thank you," Antoninus politely thanked him and then returned the baby lion to me. I hurriedly accepted the lion and gave him a glare. After all, it was still a young animal, and he had been tossing it around like a toy. But then again, he had let four-year-old Chris ride a horse by himself. It seemed that, in his eyes, even cubs were made of steel.
While I was soothing the poor baby lion, a person in the distance began approaching us. It was Roman, who had taken Antoninus's convoy earlier. He walked directly to Marcus and whispered something to him.
I pursed my lips, my eyebrows furrowing deeper. He seemed to be even more subservient to Marcus than Eric was by Antoninus's side. It was evident that he was Marcus's right-hand man in running this animal farm, which used hunting wild animals as its main attraction.

"There's also a rescue center here. We bring injured wild animals from the field and nurse them back to health," Roman explained.I asked, "And after they recover, do you release them back into the wild?"Roman smiled and said, "That's entirely up to you. If you wish for me to release them, then so be it.""Of course, they should be released."I then asked if this would cause a significant loss to them since treating and rehabilitating injured animals required a lot of money. But Roman was nonchalant and said, "As long as it makes you happy, I have no objections."I replied, "This should be your family's decision. As long as they are treated well, keeping them here is not a bad option."Roman suddenly burst into laughter and then lowered his head, his clear blue eyes filled with tenderness. "Lily, you always think of others so much. You're my little princess."Well, not always. I could be quite stubborn at times, too. I'm sure Antonin

I looked at Roman with suspicion. He smiled, appearing puzzled, and asked, "What's wrong? Don't you know? The President's father, Tiberius, is the biggest arms dealer in the country and also the world.""Really?" I found it hard to believe."Of course, they produce half of the firearms in the country. Even the guns we have here are from their company.""Okay..." I was shocked and didn't know how to respond.Seeing my uneasy expression, Roman reassured me, "Don't worry, we only buy hunting rifles, and I'll make sure that none of the bullets here will ever harm a person.""Alright, I understand."This was the first time I had learned about Antoninus' family background. Strangely, I didn't feel excited; rather, I felt a sense of repulsion. Perhaps it was because firearms were a topic that often stirred negative political discussions.I sighed softly, feeling a growing sense of anxiety. Antoninus was a high-ranking political figure, and I

The car raced across the grassland, kicking up billows of yellow dust in its wake. Occasionally, when the car hit a mound of grass, we would be sent flying off our seats.I clung tightly to the handle on the car door, afraid to move.Antoninus, on the other hand, remained composed, his usual calm expression unaffected. He turned to say something to me, but the wind was too loud for me to hear.Suddenly, he reached out and pulled me into his embrace. I was taken aback, and my instincts kicked in. I held onto his neck, angry as I asked, "What are you doing?""I don't want you to fall," he replied calmly."But I nearly fell just now!"I glared at him, annoyed. He was still smiling, enjoying the feeling of freedom and recklessness.The wind had caused his eyes to narrow slightly, and his lips curled up gently. Strands of his slightly overgrown hair danced in the wind, giving him an unexpectedly soft and elegant appearance.While I

I looked curiously at the driver. He was wearing a yellow camouflage uniform, with a long rifle slung over his shoulder. Right now, he was leaning casually against the seat, his big boots resting disrespectfully on the windshield of the open-top off-road vehicle. In short, his demeanor was very lax, and he seemed... unreliable.Turning my head, I saw that Antoninus had followed Marcus to a nearby withered tree. I had no choice but to return to the car and proceed with my plan to secretly take photos.However, as soon as I removed the lens cap, the driver reached out and snatched my camera away. "Wow, what a clever little gadget."The voice was familiar. I looked up, and there before me was that insolent and arrogant face."Lucius!" I exclaimed in surprise."Hush," Lucius made a shushing gesture, winking and saying, "Keep quiet, my sweet."He jumped out of the car, leaning casually against the vehicle's door as he continued to observe the two

I took a deep breath and thanked Roman again."Hehe, these days, I've heard you say thank you too many times," Roman chuckled softly, his voice captivating. "So, any more practical ways to show your gratitude? How do you plan to thank me?"I replied, "Well, once we get back, I'll treat you to dinner?"Roman hesitated for a moment, seeming somewhat dissatisfied. However, he still agreed with a smile, "Alright, after we return, I'll wait for your call."Lucius, who had been eavesdropping nearby since he returned, spoke up with a cold warning, "You'd better stay away from this guy. This little snake is capable of betraying even his own father. Do you really trust him?""He's just doing the right thing," I replied."No, he's doing what benefits him," Lucius retorted.I said, "He's not that kind of person.""Why? Do you really know him? Do you know everything he's done?" Lucius fired a barrage of questions, leaving me momentarily sp

I lost my balance and fell on top of Antoninus.Antoninus hugged me gently, with his hose-filled arms."Are you crazy?" I scolded him angrily.If one of these hoses misplaces a needle, it pierces a blood vessel and bulges under the skin.It hurts just to think about it. Isn't he scared at all?I tried to get off him.But his arms continued to hold me in their arms, and I was too frightened to move.'Let go of me!"Yes. But you must kiss me."'What?I suspected I had misheard, and looked into his eyes in surprise.He's the one in the weak spot right now.How dare he threaten me back?His long, thick lashes quivered gently, and his deep eyes were tender and touching.Obviously very sincere expression, but what he said is too shameless.I bit my teeth and coldly warned, "You'd better let me go right now!" Or else... I'll pull out your needle right now!"Anoninus raised an eye

Sleeping on a plane is a real pain.Occasionally encountered turbulence, fuselage tremor a few times, directly wake people from sleep.Anyway, I didn't sleep well that night.And the consequence of not sleeping soundly is that I have been unconsciously moving in bed all night.By the time I woke up rubbing my eyes, I was resting on Antoninus's chest and my cheeks were cold and sticky.I opened my eyes and got up, and, my God, Antoninus was left with a pool of transparent spit on his chest.I blushed and watched quietly.Fortunately, Antoninus is still asleep.So I quickly got out of bed, found two tissues, and gently wiped the saliva from his chest.And by the time I started wiping, I realized the bastard was already awake.He's just pretending to sleep the whole time.As Antoninus took a breath and began to say something else, I covered his mouth. "Shut up! Don't talk!"I didn't mean to do it!

I thought my bold actions would anger Antoninus, but to my surprise, he went along with it. After I was satisfied and stopped, he raised an eyebrow and asked, "Was it fun?""It was okay," I replied. I used a towel to clean him up and then admired this brand new body in front of me. I couldn't resist touching it again.Antoninus raised an indifferent eyebrow, "If you're done playing, please leave. I need to use the restroom.""Alright, go ahead."Surprisingly, the injured Antoninus was unexpectedly obedient while recovering. It made me unable to resist wanting to tease him. But as time passed, our journey was finally coming to an end, and we were about to land back at the castle.I leaned over the table by the plane's window, gazing at the blue sky and white clouds outside, feeling worried, "So, where do you plan to recover?"Antoninus was puzzled, "Don't you want me to go home?""It's not that," I explained, concerned, "I'm just worri

Once the hype is over, it's time to start preparing for our roving pitch. The first presentation was downtown. It's where the last parade was. Only this time it wasn't Antoninus in armor on the stage, it was me. He didn't show up, so I, the president's personal secretary, had to deliver his campaign message instead. I don't know much about Antoninus' politics, but at least I know what he did, and I have something to say about it. I don't know if the advertisements all over the street played a role, and when I took the stage to preach, the audience came to be particularly large. I even saw a lot of professional reporters and cameras standing in the audience. Good flow of propaganda, actually made a press conference sense. The dark camera came over, and I panicked for a while. However, I was more disturbed by the questions they asked. "How do you and the president know each other?" 'What? I suspect I misheard. But then someone asked, "I hear you and the president have a son

"Boss, I might need a favor from you." I said."No problem, go ahead."I said, "Antoninus's campaign has been delayed for a while, and I was hoping you could help us out."'Of course you can!Blake grinned and patted me on the shoulder, but sure enough, he was looking down and rubbing his hands. "But... You know, Lily, we don't do this kind of propaganda at this paper. So I'm afraid I can't help you directly. How about I give you the contact information of some of my colleagues, and you go find them?"I knew this was gonna happen.I sighed and stepped aside.Lucius, who was behind me, stepped forward and expertly pressed Blake down on the table, sneering, "Repeat what you just said?"Blake's face turned white. "You... Who are you? Lily! How could you do that?! I'll call security in!"I gave him a faint glance. 'Bark.'"I... Help me! Get me someone now! Security guard!"Just as he spoke, the door was pushed

"Antoninus lost? What do you mean?" I asked him.Lucius replied vaguely, "The day you were taken by Roman, my duel with him ended." Four out of seven, I won.""Not two out of three?"lucius replied uncomfortably, "Never mind a few games, I won anyway.""Well," I said, "it's none of my business. It's just a game. I don't care if you win or lose.""You don't care about the result?""Of course not."A kid takes a game like that seriously!Lucius snorted, "That's what I thought."He stretched out and asked, "Do you have any food here? I'm a little hungry."He did not regard himself as a stranger at all, and had begun to dig in the refrigerator.Two people in a bunker suddenly burst into a dozen people, just preparing the ingredients can be exhausting.Fortunately, they were not idle, rushing to help wash vegetables and cut meat, almost pushed the table over.Even the meal was noisy.The fir

“Be careful!” I rushed to shield David behind me.Draw my gun.Aim.The dark figures gradually rose to their feet.They looked at each other for a moment, then suddenly shouted my name: "Lily?"This voice?Is it the Salamanders?I looked at the men in surprise as they came out of the shadows one by one.It was them.And the tall figure in the distance who was waving a crowbar to greet me was the bear."Why are you here?" I was pleasantly surprised.They were visibly agitated, too: "We're coming to save you.""But how did you find me?"I can't get any signal out of here.Did they call in satellite surveillance? Or infrared tracking?"No, no, none of that. The salamander vendor said, "We have the drawings, look at the coordinates and find it."The blueprints?I looked back at David. Didn't he say the drawings were gone?So, salamander, where did the

“What's that noise?”I instinctively stood still and looked warily into the cave.David smiled and explained, "Don't worry, it's just some... Music in the background. Surely a dark cave needs some monsters, doesn't it?" 'What do you mean? I looked at him in even more shock. "Don't tell me you've been genetically modifying animals."Could it be that the depths of the cave are visiting cages stacked with animals, and the cages are filled with mutated monsters with hideous faces?Judging by his uncle's crazy ideas, it's not impossible.But David waved his hand and denied my guess: "This is a shelter. Not an outdoor adventure park. How could I really put some monsters in here? You may rest assured that you are perfectly safe here. ""So what was that sound?""I don't know..." David scratched his head and looked puzzled, "These are all audio files I downl

I looked at Antoninus on the screen and asked anxiously, "Does he have a good chance of reelection?""I don't know."I looked back in doubt.With all this surveillance, it's kind of bullying for him to say he didn't know.But David doesn't seem to know.He raised an eyebrow innocently and explained, "Well, his approval ratings are very high and he should have a good shot at re-election.""But?"But he doesn't seem to be running anymore."'Why?I was surprised. "Where did you get that information?"I know all about Antoninus. How could a workaholic totalitarian like him give up the presidency?David was still clueless: "Maybe it's you?""Me?"I'm not sure. Well, that's certainly the case according to the surveillance results. He spends half his time at his desk working and half looking at your pictures.""Oh," he said.My heart beat faster, but my face pretended not to care, "Then

"How can this be..." I know I'm not tied tight.I seriously doubt he strangled his hands like that on purpose.Sure enough, he looked up at me innocently again, his blue blue eyes blinking and blinking."All right," I said, "I'll untie you, but you have to give me a gun!""I don't have a gun.""Do you expect me to believe that?"I don't think a guy with his paranoid, cautious personality wouldn't have a few guns stashed around here."Say it! Where is the gun?"He smiled brightly again: "Under your bed, the floor closest to the wall is pry up.""Very good."I looked where he said, and sure enough I found two pistols under the floor.With a weapon in my hand and some relief, I unseated him from his chair.He still looked at me with a big smile. "You're not afraid I have a gun somewhere else.""Not afraid. One is enough for me."Shoot him or shoot yourself, but I won't give him another cha

For the next few days, I just stayed in my room.I cooked for David every day, watched TV with him, and even chatted with him until late at night.Because I wanted him to let his guard down early, hoping he'd forget to close the door one time he left.But I really underestimated him.The man was indeed introverted and timid, but he was also sensitive and cautious, like a rabbit, a scheming rabbit with a soft exterior but a dark belly.He locked the door when he entered the room and made sure I was standing at least three metres away when he opened and closed the door.I think it's gonna take a few months before he's completely unwary of me.I can't afford to wait that long.I can't stand the fact that he provides me with everything I need to live here, like food, like clothes, including my underwear.I even had to give him my underwear to change.I'm really gonna go crazy if this keeps going on.Might as we

"Well..." I nodded, as Antoninus had told me.Tiberius did all he could to restore the glory of his family, even though it drove his wife away and killed his only daughter.David sees that my face is fine and continues: "Mr Tibeirus chooses a quicker way to have a baby as soon as possible. One that doesn't require much cooperation from the president." .I probably guessed what he was going to say, and I bowed my head and listened.David said: "His father found a surrogate for him. That's you, isn't it?""That's right." I freely admitted, "I did have a child with him.""Chris. That's the name, isn't it?"I heard him say Chris's name and raised my eyebrows at him. "He's just a kid! What are you investigating him for?""I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Seeing my anger, David awkwardly began to wring his fingers, "I didn't mean to hurt him." I just feel sorry for you... I mean, innocent.""It's not something you should take on," he sa
