Emma said nothing. She already knew the outcome of this story. King Lycan had furiously condemned Luna Liliana to death and ordered the execution of Alpha Cipher’s entire family. Alpha Jeffn was sent to be raised by Omega Lena. Omega Lena and the Queen formed a close alliance, and Alpha Jeffn’s deep respect for the Queen stemmed from this connection. However, this part of history was deliberately concealed by Omega Lena. King Lycan had only informed the public that Luna Liliana had died of an illness, maintaining Alpha Jeffn’s image. In reality, the shrewd knew that Luna Liliana, with her humble background, giving birth to a royal heir, had drawn both admiration and jealousy, leading to a conspiracy against her.Emma smiled. “The one behind the scenes understands King Lycan’s mindset. He knew that King Lycan wanted to eliminate Alpha Cipher completely, so he provided a convenient reason.”Edward was taken aback.Emma’s voice remained calm and devoid of emotion. “Doesn’t Your Highness
She knew that the more noble a person was, the less likely he would say a word. Refusing someone like that would be like skinning a tiger, but when she rejected him, she didn’t feel afraid at all, because if Edward was angry because of his rejection. , then he will not have any promising future worth mentioning. Also, she wants to be an ally with Edward, not a submissive subordinate, and not the woman he loves. He has to get used to her way of speaking!Edward saw her stony face, was frightened, and suddenly let go of her hand.Emma quickly said: “I need to go back, I’m so sorry.” After speaking, he turned around and left, briefly and fluently.Edward bewilderedly watched her leave, feeling sad and lost, but he was not worried. There will be many opportunities to win her heart in the future, that’s for sure!Emma calculated in her heart, she did not expect Edward to make such a request. She was not sure if this came from his sincere love, or because he felt they could stand on the sam
Draco’s cool eyes turned away.Emma smiled, “No one in this world can oppress me, and if she wants me to come, then I have to go. I don’t care about the consequences.”A while later, Emma entered Luna Sandra’s room with a bright smile. A maid was massaging Luna Sandra’s feet, her left ear covered by the raised collar of her robe; her gaze vague and unfocused. Nanny Joie spoke gently, “The Third Miss is here.”It wasn’t until well over half a day later that Luna Sandra finally opened her eyes. She stared at Emma for a moment, then smiled slowly. “Emma has arrived, I see.”Emma smiled brightly, “Indeed, Mother. I’m here to assist as per your instructions.”Luna Sandra uttered a single word, “Good. It’s time for a meal.”Nanny Joie had already instructed the servants to set up the dining table, and Luna Sandra looked at Emma. With a friendly tone, Emma stepped forward to help her.In the presence of all the servants and nannies in the room, the two appeared very affectionate, almost like
Watching everyone hurriedly carry Luna Sandra, who was groaning in pain, into the room, Emma smiled as she stepped out of the door, feeling the bright sunlight on her face and in a great mood. Qri was worried, saying, “Miss...”Emma turned around and said, “What’s wrong? Are you worried?”Last time, she had even dared to commit murder at the pool. Now, there was nothing to be afraid of, and Qri was only concerned that Luna Sandra wouldn’t give up her intentions.Emma smiled and said, “Even if I carefully serve her, do you think she won’t cause trouble for me?”Qri thought it over and agreed. If Luna Sandra had received a lesson this time, she would likely remain quiet for a while. However, the next day, Nanny Joie arrived and said, “Madam said that the careful nursing of the Duchess is beyond the fourth young lady’s capabilities. It would be better to entrust it to the fourth young lady, but the Duchess had already come to take care of it. If she does nothing, then I will take care of
The others dared not show their teeth and obediently left the room. When there was no one else left in the kitchen, Emma smiled and said, “Qri, you cook the soup.”“Yes, ma’am.” Qri placed the cleaned astragalus roots into the pot, added water, and simmered them. Holding a fire fan, she sighed, “Miss, you’re absolutely right. If we let the maids cook, there might be some commotion. It’s better for us to handle it ourselves.”Emma smiled but didn’t respond.Luther stepped up to help Qri, and together they prepared the soup much faster than before.After a while, the soup was ready. Qri used a white porcelain bowl with delicate lotus patterns and a top rim to ladle the soup into it. She placed it on a tray and then said, “Miss, it’s ready.”Emma turned her head to glance at Carol. Carol nodded, and Emma’s smile deepened.Nanny Joie, on the other side, had already heard the news and was standing at the door, waiting for Emma. A few hours ago, the maids had informed the third young lady t
Emma watched Luna Sandra’s expressions from beginning to end, with her face appearing as though she were watching a play. She then loudly asked Nanny Joie, “Nanny Joie, do you dare to swear that everything you just said is the truth? That I bribed you, and furthermore, that you poisoned mother’s soup?”Nanny Joie knelt straight and said, “Yes, I dare to do so. I’m willing to let His Lordship and Madam decide.”“You’ve always said I bribed you, and you’ve accepted the money. Why have you changed your mind?” Emma pressed.Nanny Joie had prepared for this moment, so she responded quickly, “It’s because this morning, Madam told me about the time when you were still living at your birth mother’s home. I followed Madam into this household after marrying into the family, but hearing you mention the past event made me feel ashamed. I remembered the old instructions from Beta Jason and Luna Lucca that I had wronged Madam in the past. I obeyed Duchess before because I was foolish, but now I’ve
People are often like this. If it were not for their personal involvement, Beta Henry would have surely realized that Felicia was just a pawn Emma had used. However, at the moment, he was consumed with anger, thinking that someone was plotting against him, unable to consider other possibilities. Thus, he immediately concluded that Felicia had poisoned the soup. Emma smiled, and this was the blind spot in human nature.Initially, Luna Sandra had invited Beta Henry to confirm the accusations of plotting against her. Little did she know her scheme would backfire so perfectly.Emma looked coldly at Felicia. “Big sister, Father brought you to Communal Hall Gloire to reflect on your actions. I didn’t know that you would resort to poisoning while reflecting. You saw Luna Sandra about to eat the soup, and in your panic, you hastily tried to stop her. However, you hadn’t planned for the unexpected, so you had to lie and frame me. This explains why the investigators found nothing in your room.
When Jadeite rushed forward, Emma immediately hid behind Beta Henry: “Father, I’m scared!”Jadeite didn’t expect Emma to hide behind Beta Henry. He was just about to stop, but he didn’t know who was blocking him. His whole body rushed forward. Beta Henry was too scared and had no time to dodge. In an instant, the dagger appeared. That stabbed Beta Henry’s left arm! Emma shouted loudly: “Protect, father! You’re not coming soon!”There was only a nanny in this room. All the guards guarded the outside. No one expected this kind of incident to happen. Jadeite used a dagger to stab and injure Beta Henry.Luna Sandra was angry and righteous, struggling to speak, but only spit out a mouthful of blood. She fainted, but no one in the room paid attention to her, because Beta Henry was injured, and his mouth was bruised. The wound was bleeding non-stop; the dagger was still stuck above it.Beta Henry was angry. Jadeite dared to stab and injure himself! He pointed at Jadeite and shouted at the gu
