He Shaochen, are you that free?
Just as Eve was about to hug Adam back and linger with him, Adam suddenly pulled away.
Eve was stunned. Then she heard Adam's calm voice. "Alright, I've kissed you. Now you should tell me what the higher-ups are doing."
Eve touched her lips. His breath still lingered on them.
She stared blankly for a moment before smiling bitterly.
"You're really heartless, Adam. In order to achieve your goal, you're willing to betray your own feelings?"
In order to obtain information, he kissed her without any hesitation. Was there any emotion in his kiss?
Adam was amused by Eve's question, and a hint of mischief appeared in his dark red eyes. "I thought that you wouldn't be the one to say that."
Xiaxia's body froze, and her face immediately turned red.
She began to tremble slightly and said in a daze, "You're so cruel, Adam. You're really cruel. As long as it's not someone you care about, can you say such things to provoke others?"
Adam said, "I'm just stating a fact."
Since they had entered that organization, everyone was aware that their bodies no longer belonged to them. For the sake of the mission, in order to gain the trust of the enemy, they would even change into the most lowly prostitute. Betraying their feelings was a common occurrence. As long as they could complete the mission, they could exchange anything.
This was the J Organisation.
Eve was one of the best in the organization. It was impossible for her not to have done those things. That was why Adam found her words laughable.
"Yes, you're right. Anyway, no matter what I do, I can't compare to that little princess with a halo around her. She's the one you should protect with all your might. Anyway, she's the kindest, most naive, and the most beautiful. Everyone else is worthless! Am I right? Adam? "
Eve raised her head and looked straight at Adam.
Adam didn't answer the question. He was just a little troubled. "If you've kept me here for so long just to say this, Eve, I think you're really bored."
"Haha, that's right. I must be crazy to ignore all the good men outside and talk about these romantic things with a heartless man like you." Eve took a deep breath. She tucked her fingers into her hair and pulled it back. Once again, she looked like a capable career woman.
"Don't you want to know what the higher-ups are doing? I can't reveal too much. If something happens, I don't want to be implicated. But there is one thing I can tell you. Although you have elected Lilith as the next Queen, the people above will not only set their eyes on her. "
"Ravel also has people from the organization?" Adam immediately realized this.
Eve shrugged. "I'm not the one who said that. Don't drag me down with you if you're purged by the organization."
Adam was silent.
He felt that with Ravel's personality, he wouldn't do such a decisive thing. After all, he still had a capable assistant, Yale. Doing this was equivalent to breaking his own right-hand man.
But if it wasn't Ravel who did it, who could it be?
Who had the best chance to get close to the torture chamber?
Who could control Ravel's thoughts?
That day, outside the Council Hall, the petite girl behind Ravel suddenly jumped into Adam's mind. He subconsciously said a name. "Lacey …"
Eve's eyes flashed.
She smiled bitterly in her heart. This man was indeed very sharp.
Adam looked at her and smiled playfully. "It is indeed something that the upper echelons can do. The two crown princes have their own subordinates planted around them. No matter which one ascends the throne, they can use this opportunity to infiltrate the core of the imperial family."
"I'm not the one who said that."
Eve looked away.
"Thank you, Eve."
Adam walked to the door and said in a low voice, "Even if I'm purged by the organization, you don't have to worry. I won't give you away."
After saying that, he disappeared around the corner.
In the empty monitoring room, Eve's low laughter slowly echoed. She covered her eyes and muttered, "What a heartless and willful man. He never cares about other people's feelings, but always shows his gentleness inadvertently … What a cunning man …"

In Ravel's palace.
Ravel went to one of the rooms, where a maid stood guard outside.
"Yale still won't eat?"
"Yes, Your Highness. His Excellency has been locking himself in the room. He didn't touch the food at the door at all." The maid replied in a trembling voice.
Ravel lowered his head and pondered for a moment. Then, he ordered the guards behind him, "Break the door."
"Yes."
Two tall men walked forward and broke the door open quickly.
The room was immediately filled with a foul stench.
Ravel couldn't help but frown. However, he suppressed his disgust and walked in. The floor was covered with wine bottles. Yale was leaning against the bed, drunk, regardless of day or night.
"Yair," Ravel called out to him.
However, he didn't get a reply.
Ravel turned his head and ordered the people behind him, "Bring a basin of ice water."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
After the water was brought over, Ravel took it and splashed it directly at Yale.
The maids were shocked and covered their mouths in shock. "Your Highness Ravel, what are you …"
"He needs to clear his head." Ravel casually tossed the basin aside.
Under the stimulation of the cold water, Yale's eyelids twitched. He slowly opened his eyes and saw everyone in the room. Finally, his gaze stopped on Ravel. He smiled sarcastically. "I was wondering who it was. So it's the incomparably noble Your Highness Ravel. What brings you to my humble abode? "
Ravel raised his eyebrows. "Yale, as my deputy, don't you think you're neglecting your duties?"
"Haha."
After hearing this, Yale smiled indifferently. His gaze drifted to Lacey behind Ravel. He said playfully, "Neglecting my duties? Then you can replace me too. I don't want to be an adjutant anymore. You can just remove me like you removed Isabelle. I don't care anyway. "
"This is your answer?"
Ravel's voice was cold.
Yale picked up the wine bottle beside him and poured it down his throat again.
Seeing him like this, Ravel took a deep breath. "We're all sad about Isabelle's death. However, if you continue to be depressed like this, it's a sign of cowardice!"
"Coward?"
Yale looked at him sharply. Suddenly, anger surged in him. He suddenly stood up and looked at Ravel. "Ravel, Isabelle died for you. How can you be so calm? Did you shed a single tear when she died? Why is your heart so cruel? She only had eyes for you. How can you be so indifferent? Why? Why? "
Yale picked up the wine bottle and threw it out.
Glass shards flew everywhere.
"Tears can't solve anything. Instead of being depressed, it's better to spend time on revenge."
Yale looked at the man in front of him in disbelief. He didn't know when, but the sunny and simple little prince had completely disappeared. Now, in front of them was a standard crown prince, a perfect, calm, and self-controlled monarch.
It was said that this time, his reputation had risen instead of falling because he used Isabelle's death.
"Ravel, you've changed."
"Didn't you make me like this?" Ravel took off his coat and threw it to Lacey behind him. He said to her, "You all want to wait outside."
The others saw that the situation was not right and were about to stop him, but Lacey replied, "Understood."
She turned to the others and said, "Didn't His Highness ask us to wait outside? Why aren't you leaving? "
The others were somewhat apprehensive of this petite and expressionless new executive, so they all walked out.
Soon, there was a sound of beating in the room.
There was also the sound of things being smashed and cursing.
Those people were all frightened when they heard it. Someone couldn't help but walk forward and ask, "Sir, is this really okay? It seems to be very intense inside. Will His Highness be okay? "
Lacey leaned against the door and crossed her arms. She said lightly, "His Highness asked us to wait outside. We'll just listen to his orders."
"… Yes."
Half an hour passed.
Ravel walked out with bruises on his face.
He exhaled and ordered his subordinates, "Go and find someone from the medical class to treat Yale. His condition may not be very good."
Everyone's hearts trembled.
Since Ravel had said so, they didn't know what kind of tragic situation it was inside.
After fighting with Yale, Ravel and Lacey left Yale's residence. Lacey handed the coat to Ravel and said in a low voice, "Thank you for your hard work, Your Highness."
Ravel looked at Lacey and a faint smile appeared on his gloomy face. He reached out and hugged Lacey's shoulder, pulling her close to him. He said, "My body hurts so much. Lacey, help me apply medicine."
"I … am not professional …"
Lacey refused in a muffled voice.
"But my body hurts so much."
Lacey: "…"
They argued for a long time.
Lacey finally compromised. "I'll try …"
"Haha, I knew you're the best, Lacey." Ravel hugged Lacey even tighter, his tone incomparably cheerful.
Lacey was about to resist when she realized that Ravel's body was trembling slightly.
She quietly looked up and saw that Ravel's face was so gloomy that ink was about to drip out. She heard him say in a light tone, "This time, I suffered a terrible loss. I almost broke both my left and right arms. Lilith Lamperton Charlie. I didn't really do anything to her, but she bared her fangs at me first."
"Ravel …"
Lacey called out softly.
Unfortunately, Ravel was immersed in his own world.
A strong murderous intent flashed in his eyes. "You want the throne? Then you'll have to ask if I agree to it first! "

"Take it away. I have no appetite right now." Qiao Qiao looked at the exquisite dishes, but she couldn't resist the disgust in her stomach.
He Shaochen touched her forehead. "That's strange. Your temperature isn't high. Why do you have no appetite?"
"I don't have a fever to begin with." Qiao Qiao pushed his hand away. She was speechless. She glanced at him curiously. "He Shaochen, are you very free today? Why haven't you returned to Country A yet? "
He Shaochen was a little unhappy when he heard this.
He put down his cutlery and pinched Qiao Qiao's cheek. "You ingrate. Why do you think I'm staying here?"
"To be my lover?"
Qiao Qiao said casually.
He Shaochen's face immediately darkened.
He looked at Qiao Qiao like a demon from hell. "Say that again?"
"Hehe, I'm kidding."
Of course, she knew that He Shaochen was staying in J Country because of her. Because of the assassination last time, although he said that he was fine, he was still very worried. That was why he wanted to accompany her as much as possible.
But Qiao Qiao also knew that He Shaochen wasn't free every day. Even when he was with her, He Shaochen's phone kept ringing.
In the end, he had no choice but to turn off his phone when he was with her.
She didn't want to be a burden to him.
