"You're the one," Jody argued.

"We'll talk later. I have to report to King Keannu," Dorothy retorted.

Without wanting to argue anymore, Jody let her lover go and he could only vent his frustration through physical exercise in the building.

Meanwhile, in the Silver Building, Bill stood looking through his old belongings accompanied by his ever faithful Andrew Reece.

"You don't have to keep me company like this, Reece," Bill said.

"It's my duty to serve you, General."

"No, it isn't. I'm only a War Advisor now, Reece. You don't have to serve me," Bill said.

However, Andrew Reece remained adamant. "No, General. I swore to serve you to the death, so I will."

Bill sighed wearily and let Andrew follow him.

"General, it's unacceptable to me that you have to bow before that jerk Jody Gardner."

"Shh, watch your language!" Bill admonished.

Andrew said, "But he is a jerk, General. He kidnapped you, held you captive and-"

"I know. You're right about that, but you have to remember, he's

    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

    The sudden change of subject actually took Andrew a little by surprise, but he thought quickly. "You've never fought him, General but General Gardner has." "Uh, I see. Bring me the full document tonight, Reece!" Bill ordered. "Yes, General." In another part of the palace, Keannu Wellington was standing in his flower garden that night when Amanda Clark, the palace secretary who had served the kingdom for several years, came to him to report something. Keannu realized she was coming after the guard told him. "Your Majesty," Amanda Clark greeted as she bowed slowly. "Yes, Amanda. Did you get it?" Keannu asked. "Yes, I have, Your Majesty," Amanda replied as she handed a white tablet to the king. Keannu immediately took his reading glasses and opened the document and read it carefully. "Good, this is very good. We can use this to attack them," Keannu said happily. Amanda Clark looked down and smiled with relief. "So, should I tell General Gardner now, Your Honour?" Keannu Wellin

    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

    "Monica, you know how great he is right?" Keannu replied even more annoyed. "Well, no matter how great he is, if you can't control him, it's useless, right?" Monica said. Keannu immediately made a move, ordering all his bodyguards and servants to get out of the way. Gosh, his mood really got worse after he heard his wife's words. Monica let out a long sigh, the young queen looked sorry for her husband. "Then, what exactly did he do?" "He just criticised my way of winning." "What kind of way?" Monica asked. Keannu was very open with his wife. He told his queen everything. There was not a single secret he hid from Monica Wilhelm. So, this time he didn't hesitate at all when he told her, "I found out an interesting piece of information about the crown prince of the Maldiva Kingdom and it's a scandal. I intend to use this to threaten the King of Maldiva." Monica nodded, easily understanding the story quickly. "Oh, I see and that arrogant general disagrees? Is that what he criticiz

    "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

    "There's something I need to discuss with him," Bill replied, putting an end to any questions Andrew might have asked. Andrew didn't dare ask any more questions after seeing the general's face looking so unkind. Bill once again checked all the equipment and afterwards made some important notes. The next morning, exactly two days before they were to attack the kingdom of Maldiva, Bill met the war general after getting the permission obtained with Andrew's help. "I didn't realize that Andrew Reece had turned into your loyal servant," Jody quipped as Bill entered his private residence. Bill was being satirised and he replied casually, "Ever since I entered this palace, Andrew Reece has been the one who has helped me the most in various ways." "Hm, of course I can see that." Jody's gaze looked unfriendly but since he and his war advisor had to work together this time then he tried to suppress his ego for the time being. "So, what did you have to say this morning?" Jody asked. "Ab

    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

    Cassandra widened her eyes, "Grandpa." Arthur walked over and intended to touch Cassandra's hand, but the woman firmly jerked the bodyguard's hand away. Cassandra was too shocked at what was happening. She still found it hard to believe that her grandfather would do such a thing to her, his biological granddaughter. "Cassie. Obey or-" "Or what, Grandpa? Marry me off to another man?" Cassandra interrupted as she took a few steps back. She shook her head, looking so hurt. "Don't be stubborn, Cassie!" Christopher snapped. "Arthur, what are you waiting for?" George said, ordering his grandfather's men back. Cassandra gave her brother a disappointed look and turned her head back to her grandfather, "Why, Grandpa? What did I do wrong?" "Don't listen to her, Grandpa! Just get over there!" Shirley cut in quickly, not wanting to give her sister a chance to avoid their grandfather's punishment. Cassandra really didn't understand. These three people near her were her family. They shared

    "General, we're surrounded."A soldier with a bullet wound in his leg dragged himself to walk towards the place where the war general of Ans De Lou Kingdom was preparing his weapons.The soldier who was staggering as he walked was no longer wearing his head armour or any other body armour. That made the war general glare angrily at him, "What have you done? Where is your armour?"The soldier of the first class could only grimace in pain and replied, "It's unusable, too many bullet wounds."Riley Mackenzie widened his eyes and instantly removed the goggles protecting his eyes.The young man crouched down and looked at Benedict Arkitson's injuries, which were extremely severe.

    People were eager to approach Riley, to help him. However, when they saw James Gardner moving toward Riley, they stayed where they were.James quickly caught Riley's staggering body as if he couldn't bear the weight of his own body.James sighed softly, “What are you doing?”“Preventing you from leaving,” Riley replied weakly.James exhaled roughly and picked up Riley who was still so weak.“You don't have to waste your time and energy,” James said.“Why? You don't have to go, James. You-”“It's my decision,” James cut in quickly.Riley shook his head, staring at the young man who was only one year older than him. “You're not guilty. I'm an asshole for wanting to keep you as my best friend.”“It's nice of you to admit that,” James replied with a faint smile.“If anyone should leave here, it's me, not you,” Riley said.James frowned, “Don't be crazy! You're the general of war in this kingdom. You can't-”“I lied to everyone from the start, not just to you,” Riley cut James off.Riley's

    Rowena nodded weakly, while the four soldiers who were also inside the infirmary immediately looked at each other. Riley himself took some time to process the information.However, Reiner immediately asked, "Your Highness, then ... where is the deputy general of war right now?"Rowena turned her head quickly, "I don't know. I ... only heard the news from the palace maid, just now. Perhaps ... he has already returned to the dormitory or-"Thank you, Your Royal Highness," Reiner cut off Rowena's speech quickly due to being too panicked.After that Reiner immediately paid his respects to the king's daughter and quickly left the area together with Diego.Ben also said, "Riley, I'll be there first. Later I ... will be here again."Alen nodded, "Don't worry! We'll let you know when we know what's going on."Riley could only stare at his friends' departure with a look full of confusion.Rowena was the only one left in the room and was accompanied by several staff, soldiers and servants.Row

    At first Riley was eager to force James to answer him, but he stopped doing so when he finally understood that James might need some time alone.He sighed softly, “I'll talk to him later.”Meanwhile, outside Riley's room, all the people who were good friends of the two young people who were having complicated problems were staring at James with questioning eyes.While Alen and Ben were silent because they didn't dare to ask, Diego casually asked, “Did you ... talk to Riley?”James nodded.“Then ... how?” Reiner asked in an anxious tone.James did not answer Reiner's question and only said, “I'm going back to the dorm first.”Shin, who heard that, bit his lip and replied, “I'll accompany you.”James did not refuse and let Shin come with him, while Diego and Reiner remained there.After James and Shin were no longer there, Alen decided to go inside with Ben.Not long after, Diego and Reiner also entered Riley's hospital room area.“He already knew about it,” Ben said when he first looke

    James laughed disappointedly when he saw Riley's silence.Riley suddenly stared at him wordlessly.“Why, did you ... did you never even have the intention of telling me about it?” James said in a sharp tone.Riley opened his mouth but not a single word came out of it.James was getting annoyed at him, “Uh, I see. I see now.”James nodded and stepped back, making Riley surprised.“James, it's not like what you're thinking,” Riley finally managed to reply to James.James shook his head.“Do you really know what I'm thinking, Riley?” James said in a sarcastic tone.The young man could no longer hide his immense disappointment, “You don't know, Riley. But ... I can tell what you're thinking.”“James, I ... know I've wronged you. But, please understand, my position is very difficult. I don't want you to ... hate me, James.

    Shin and Reiner glanced at each other, as if they were both confused about whether or not to leave the area as James had requested.However, the reason they hesitated was certainly not because they were both worried that James would hurt Riley. Instead, both of them were more worried about James.Unfortunately, James, who did not get an answer from his two friends, turned his head with a furrowed brow, “Why? Don't you two trust me?”“You guys ... think I would do anything ... to hurt Riley? Is it like that?” James added with a sad look on his face.Shin quickly turned to James, “Of course not. I am sure you wouldn't do anything that bad.”“Don't get me wrong, James! We're ... just very worried about you,” Reiner said quietly.James was startled and when he looked at his two friends in turn, he instantly knew that they were not lying at all.The young man closed his eyes and instantly realized his mistake, “I'm sorry, senior.

What have you done?”Ben was silent.Shin took a deep breath and watched the expressions of all the soldiers who were his best friends. The man sighed softly, “Aren't we ... all friends? How could you ... and you hide this important thing?”Ben raised his head, “Then, what do you expect me to do?”“What did you say?” Shin retorted fiercely.“You think it's easy? Hiding a secret of this magnitude? You think ... what happens if I tell you and the others? Especially James. He ... would definitely fight with Riley.
