The Cruel Truth
Adam's expression changed. He looked at Eve suspiciously.
Eve maintained her smile. "Let's go."
Adam's heart began to sink at the sight of Eve's enigmatic smile. Eve's sudden visit to him gave him a sense of foreboding.
Adam followed Eve into her room.
Eve gently closed the door of the house and locked it from the inside.
"Why did you lock the door?" Adam's dark red eyes showed a trace of suspicion.
Eve smiled. "I have to keep it a secret."
"Tell me, what orders did the higher-ups give?"
Eve coughed and said, "The higher-ups gave you an A-rank red order. You have to protect Princess Lilith's child."
Adam's expression changed when he heard this. He suddenly rushed in front of Eve and pressed on her shoulder. His dark red eyes suddenly surged with a terrifying aura. His voice was bone-chilling. "How did the higher-ups know about Lilith's pregnancy? Did you tell them? "
"There's no such thing as an airtight wall in the world. Adam, have you thought about the consequences of trying to hide this matter? If the higher-ups find out that you deliberately hid Lilith's pregnancy, you will be judged as a heretic. When that time comes, do you know how terrible your fate will be? "
Eve said sternly.
Adam narrowed his eyes. He moved to Eve's neck and exerted a little force. "So you're saying that you were the one who leaked this matter?"
Although her breathing was becoming difficult, Eve's expression did not change. Her blue eyes reflected Adam's handsome face. "Yes, I was the one who reported this matter. As the supervisor, I have the duty to monitor your actions. Adam, I don't care if you're obsessed with Lilith. But if you betray the organization, you will die! I won't watch you throw your life away! "
"My matters are none of your business!"
"Then I'll return the same words. You have no right to interfere with what I do!"
"Eve, don't provoke me. Otherwise, even if it's you, I won't be merciful."
Although Adam looked calm, those who knew him well knew that he was like a volcano that could erupt at any time. He was in mortal danger.
"I didn't want … didn't want to provoke you. I … I just … don't want you to die." Eve's breathing became more and more difficult. Her face was flushed red.
Just when she thought she would suffocate to death, Adam let go of her in the nick of time.
Eve immediately fell to her knees and clutched at her throat as she began to cough violently.
Cough cough … cough cough cough …. "
Seeing her in so much pain, Adam's eyes flashed with a trace of pity. But in the end, he hardened his heart and said coldly, "Eve, from now on, I don't need you to interfere with my matters. This is the last time. I won't be merciful in the future."
Eve recovered with great difficulty. She looked up at Adam and said bitterly, "Are you really willing to give up your life for Lilith? Even if I tell the organization about her pregnancy, so what? As long as she compromises with the organization and is willing to be controlled by us, the higher-ups won't hurt her. "
Adam looked like he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
He looked coldly at Eve and smiled bitterly. "Are you saying that you want Lilith to bow down to an organization that killed her parents?"
"But she doesn't know about this, does she?" Eve retorted. "Right now, she mistakenly believes that her parents were killed by Ravel. As long as she continues to believe this, you can encourage her with words and she will definitely obey. Otherwise, why would you work so hard to learn hypnosis?"
"Absolutely impossible."
"Why is it impossible?" Eve was also agitated.
This was already a foolproof plan. If Adam continued to be stubborn, Eve was really afraid that he would lose his life.
Adam couldn't tell Eve the truth. He could only clench his fists, afraid of revealing his true feelings.
He wouldn't let her know that the reason he joined the J Organisation was to avenge Prince Rovino and secretly protect Lilith. Right now, they didn't have enough strength to fight against the J Organisation. The only way was to let Lilith ascend the throne and slowly cultivate their own strength. Then, they could destroy the J Organisation in one fell swoop.
But now, the plan was disrupted again.
Qiao Qiao's pregnancy was an accident.
And it was terrible.
Qiao Qiao's father, Rovino, died because the heir, Qiao Qiao, was born. Because of the appearance of a new heir, Rovino, who didn't want to be on good terms with the J Organisation, was killed. If Freya hadn't risked her life to rescue Qiao Qiao and escaped to A Country, Qiao Qiao would have long become a puppet of the J Organisation.
And now, history was repeating itself.
The J Organisation had ordered them to protect Qiao Qiao's child. Their goal was to control the next heir. If Qiao Qiao resisted the J Organisation like her father, she would only end up being killed. Her child would become a puppet and a tool for the J Organisation to control the J Country.
It was because he foresaw this future that Adam wanted to hide it. Unfortunately, he was one step behind and the organisation found out.
Now, Qiao Qiao's situation would become even more dangerous.
What should he do?
Adam suddenly had the thought of getting rid of the fetus in Qiaoqiao's womb. He couldn't let his princess be killed like this. No, he definitely couldn't!
— —
Various forces were coveting Qiao Qiao and her unborn child. Danger, traps, malice, deceit surrounded her. But they couldn't defeat Qiao Qiao's persistence.
In the ward.
She stroked her belly and murmured, "Baby, don't be afraid. Mommy will protect you. Absolutely, absolutely, absolutely."
Even if she had to die, this time, she had to protect this child.

Because of her heroic rescue at the press conference, Qiao Qiao received the general recognition of the people. Her reputation increased greatly and the negative impact from before was basically wiped out.
The seven-day agreement with Zachesis was up. Zachesis came to visit again.
"Your Highness, I'm very sorry to disturb your rest. But the seven-day period is up. You …"
"My reputation has increased again, hasn't it?" Qiao Qiao snatched the right to speak.
Zachesis was stunned.
He looked at the pale woman in front of him with her head wrapped in gauze. She looked so thin and weak, but he felt like she had endless strength. He narrowed his eyes and said, "But you haven't clarified your relationship with the head of his Clan yet. If someone tries to sow discord again …"
"You don't have to worry about this. Mr. He and I have already discussed the countermeasures. But such an accident suddenly happened, so the plan can only be delayed. I think His Highness Zachesis isn't the kind of person to stick to the rules. He will definitely make an appropriate compromise, right?" Qiao Qiao's every answer was watertight. Zachesis couldn't find any loopholes. This made Zachesis dissatisfied.
This little girl was very sharp-tongued.
"Then according to Your Highness, when do you plan to clarify? Take advantage of the fact that the citizens are more tolerant of you and quickly resolve this matter. That's the best plan. It's not good to waste the opportunity. His Highness is still recuperating. Why don't you hand over your authority to us, the Elder Council? We will definitely … "
"You don't have to worry about this matter. Princess Lilith and I will handle it properly."
He Shaochen's voice sounded at the door of the ward.
Qiao Qiao and Zachesis turned around together and saw He Shaochen leaning against the door, looking at them calmly.
When Zachesis saw He Shaochen, his eyes suddenly sharpened. "Mr. He, how can you come here so openly? You are the ambassador of Country A. If you want to see Her Highness Lilith, you should at least let the messenger inform her. "
He Shaochen smiled coldly.
He walked over with elegant steps and brushed past Zachesis. He walked to Qiao Qiao's bedside and sat down. With an intimate look, he said gently, "Lilith, how are you feeling now? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? "
What the hell was this person doing?
Qiao Qiao couldn't figure out He Shaochen's sudden intimate behavior.
Although she said to Zachesis that she had thought of a countermeasure, that was just a bluff. She didn't know what He Shaochen's countermeasure was. Now that he was publicly showing affection in front of Zachesis, Qiao Qiao felt that she would be finished sooner or later!
Zachesis was caught off guard and was very angry. "Mr. He, don't you know how much trouble you have caused our Princess? Now you are publicly showing such intimate behavior. You will make it difficult for our Princess! "
He Shaochen's dark eyes flashed coldly. Zachesis suddenly felt a chill down his spine and his body stiffened.
He Shaochen said, "Your Excellency, don't you understand J Country's language? I said that I already have a countermeasure. You don't have to worry about this matter! "
Zachesis was speechless for a moment. He sneered and said, "Since Mr. He is so sure, then I have nothing to say. But Mr. He, you have to understand that J Country is different from Country A. Here, you can't do whatever you want!"
He Shaochen smiled emotionlessly. "Your Excellency, are you sure you want me to say it a third time?"
Zachesis's old face turned red.
He glared fiercely at Qiao Qiao and He Shaochen, then left in a huff.
Qiao Qiao looked at Zachesis's back as he left. She was secretly pleased. She had long found this guy an eyesore. He was always looking for trouble. She was very happy to see him suffer.
"Are you happy?"
He Shaochen hugged Qiao Qiao and raised his eyebrows.
Qiao Qiao said without thinking, "I'm happy!"
But as soon as she said that, Qiao Qiao felt that something was wrong. Wasn't she still in a cold war with He Shaochen?
After realizing this, Qiao Qiao pushed He Shaochen away and said, "Don't think that I will compromise with you just because of this. He Shaochen, let me tell you the truth. If you don't want this child, the two of us are finished!"
He Shaochen didn't expect that after a few days, Qiao Qiao still hadn't calmed down.
He controlled his temper and said calmly, "Qiao Qiao, since you are already the princess of J Country, can you not be so emotional when you consider things? Do you need me to repeat how much of a threat this child's existence is to you? "
Qiao Qiao also didn't expect that after a few days, she would still receive the same answer.
