Chapter 391

Gloria was meeting the king alone for the first time and felt uneasy. George ordered her to sit down, but she sat as if on pins and needles. When the royal servants served coffee, she didn't dare touch it.Seeing how nervous she was, George spoke."No need to be so tense. I simply want to ask you something. After the queen was born, she was sent to the Morris family. How much do you know about it?"Hearing this, Gloria became even more terrified. She immediately stood up to deny it."Your Majesty, I don't know who has been feeding you nonsense, but the queen was raised in the Foster family. She has nothing to do with the Morris family!"George's gaze turned solemn. Judging from Gloria's reaction, he wouldn't be able to get anything more out of her. If he pressed further, she might just faint from fear.His voice was stern as he gave the order."Send Mrs Foster out of the palace.""Yes, Your Majesty!"Gloria returned home in a daze and immediately told Robin everything exactly

Jocelyn looked up and saw George standing high above on the watchtower. He overlooked everything with a domineering gaze. He held a bow and arrow in his hands, his sharp, dark eyes brimming with a piercing intensity. His strikingly handsome face was shadowed with a deep, menacing aura.Everyone knew of the king's exceptional archery skills. His arrows never missed their mark. The three arrows he had just released could have struck Jocelyn directly if he had wanted them to.This was a warning.Step back, and she could live. Step forward, and she would die.George lowered his bow, his lips parting slightly."Defiers shall be executed without mercy.""Yes, Your Majesty!"At the sight of the king, cold sweat broke out on Jocelyn's back. She already knew what fate awaited her.To survive, she would do whatever it took.The Falcon Troop was skilled in battle, but they stood no chance against a massive army, especially when they were already at a disadvantage.George's guards swif

Jocelyn looked shocked and panic-stricken.She was just one step away from escaping. Then a long spear appeared, forcing her back.Everyone inside the gate and on the walls stared in astonishment at this strange scene.Slowly, the figure holding the spear came into their view. The person wore a mask and looked strikingly like the former Commander Morris.The Falcon Troop was bewildered, and so was everyone else.As the masked figure advanced, Jocelyn had no choice but to retreat. The rain formed a curtain, blurring her vision. Yet she was absolutely certain that the masked person in front of her was none other than Jane.On the wall, George furrowed his brows slightly.Jocelyn still wanted to escape. Seeing an opening beside Jane, she quickly sidestepped to flee.But Jane flung her spear, blocking her once again.Jocelyn refused to accept it and shouted angrily, "Move!"Jane loosened her grip, letting the spear drop from her hand.Jocelyn was startled. Jane wouldn't just l

Chapter 395

Jane wanted to save the Falcon Troop, and the only way to do so was to resolve this as Stanley. Otherwise, to George, a force as uncontrollable as the Falcon Troop would be doomed.The revelation that another Commander Morris existed sparked mixed reactions among the crowd.Mary was utterly shocked. She turned to look at George.Unlike her, he remained much calmer, as if he had known all along. There was a cold and unreadable sharpness in his eyes.Karlsen suddenly understood why Jocelyn had never cared about the Falcon Troop's lives. She had never been the real Commander Morris.That meant she had also committed the crime of deceiving the king.What he couldn't understand was, since Stanley was still alive, why had he allowed Jocelyn to impersonate him?The Falcon Troop stared at Jane in disbelief."Commander?"They found it hard to believe.Jane looked at them. Seeing that they still intended to take their own lives, she ordered sternly, "Drop your swords. I never taught yo

Crack!The token shattered. Jane's strength was evident."No! Commander–" The Falcon Troop soldiers clenched their jaws and held back their emotions.Jocelyn stared at the broken pieces of the token, her heart aching. Jane had actually handed over the Falcon Troop just like that. It would have been better for them to die for a worthy cause and rescue her.George's brows were furrowed in cold contemplation.Stanley's move could be considered a master stroke. He understood the mind of a ruler and knew when to make sacrifices."Karlsen, withdraw the troops.""Roger that!"With the guards retreating, more than half the people were gone. The Falcon Troop was safe. They wouldn't die, but none of them felt any relief. From this moment on, they were no longer under Commander Morris.Though spared from execution, punishment was inevitable. They had indeed broken into the prison tonight. They had to be punished.George's voice was sharp and unwavering."Lock them all up in the dunge

With a flash of the sword, Jocelyn collapsed as if her spine had been ripped out. Her eyes widened in terror as she turned her head.Her foot–Her Achilles tendon had been severed.Watching Jane continue to approach, Jocelyn trembled uncontrollably."Stay back. Don't come any closer! No!"Jane showed no mercy. With another swift strike, she severed the tendons in Jocelyn's hands.A bloodcurdling scream rang out."Ahh!"Jocelyn was filled with hatred. Why was this happening to her? She had only tried to claim what was rightfully hers.On the watchtower, Mary felt immense satisfaction.'How dare Jocelyn impersonate Commander Morris?' she thought.George's gaze was ice-cold."Take Jocelyn to the royal prison. She will be executed tomorrow.""Yes, Your Majesty!"Seeing that there was no way out, Jocelyn completely lost it and screamed in fury."Your Majesty! I have something to report about the Morris family! They knew I was impersonating Stanley! If I'm guilty, then so are

Jane's gaze was ice-cold."Your Majesty, the only one who knew about Jocelyn's impersonation was my father."At that moment, Mary spoke up as well. Unlike before, she no longer stood by Jocelyn's side."Your Majesty, Jocelyn has already shown her treachery by assuming a false identity. And now, she even dares to betray the very people who raised her. Such ingratitude is the height of disgrace!"How could a person like her have any credibility? Don't let her spew more baseless accusations!"Mary knew full well that Marissa couldn't have been unaware of Jocelyn's impersonation, but she was determined to protect Marissa.Surely her brother was a reasonable man. If every person who concealed the truth had to be punished, the Northern Battalion would fall into chaos.George understood this as well.He thought of Jane. By logic, she must have known about Jocelyn impersonating Stanley. Yet she, too, had chosen silence, no doubt to protect the Morris family.If he punished Marissa, Ja

"Close the gates!" George ordered.Boom.The gates of the royal prison slammed shut.Jane stopped in her tracks, not moving an inch.Up on the watchtower, Mary couldn't believe what she had just heard.'Jane? Your Majesty?'Jocelyn must have gone insane. Yes, that had to be it.Jocelyn laughed maniacally. After all, if she was going to die, she might as well drag someone down with her. Jane had used the token of royal pardon to save Kennedy. How could she have forgotten about herself?Jocelyn shouted at George, who was still on the watchtower."Your Majesty! You don't know yet, do you? I'm not the only one who impersonated Stanley, so did the queen–"Whoosh.An arrow shot through the air, piercing straight deep into Jocelyn's chest.The terror of death spread through her body. Her eyes widened in disbelief, following the trajectory of the arrow.She never expected that the one who shot her would be the king.George's gaze was ice-cold, his movements swift as he nocked and

Jane hesitated for only a moment before taking off her cloak.George kept his gaze straight ahead, his fists clenched tightly on his lap.After changing her clothes, Jane truly didn't want to hold back anymore."Your Majesty, I–"George suddenly looked at her, his gaze chilling to the bone."Jane, you'd best think carefully before you speak. The marriage substitution was my greatest concession."If there was anything worse than the substitution, he would not forgive her.Jane's gaze was resolute. "I don't want to keep deceiving you. Hmph!"George yanked her into his arms and silenced her with a fierce kiss. He kissed her harshly, as if he wanted to devour her whole.Jane tried to push him away, but he suddenly flipped her over and pressed her against the carriage wall. Outside, the carriage continued smoothly into the palace without obstruction. When it arrived outside Tyrian Palace, it came to a stop.Karlsen heard a commotion inside the carriage. It sounded as if somethin
