Take it Back Fair and Square
The live broadcast came to an end.
In the Hexagon Building's administration hall.
Ravel's eyes were glued to the television screen. On the screen, He Shaochen had made a tyrannical declaration to the people of J Country. As a result, the reporters present all exclaimed in amazement. Following that, the attention grabbing stunts were still being talked about by the people.
Now, all the major media outlets were reporting on it, but there was not a single negative news.
"Your Highness, now that Her Highness Lilith's support rate has increased, our previous deployment may not be of use." Lacey stood at the side and said with some regret.
Originally, they had exposed Qiao Qiao and He Shaochen's ambiguous relationship and caused a stir in public opinion. They had already lowered Qiao Qiao's support rate among the people. After that, they would use her family to ruin her reputation. Step by step, they had planned it all out. But they did not expect that Adam and He Shaochen would destroy everything.
Ravel supported his chin with one hand and looked at the screen. He said leisurely: "Yes, I also did not expect this. This is probably what they mean by 'Man proposes, God disposes'."
Hearing Ravel's words, Lacey did not know why she felt depressed. Her eyes were locked on Ravel, and there was some worry in her eyes. She did not want to see this person disappointed. He should be the most noble person in the country. How could he let Lilith take everything away from him?
She pursed her lips, and for the first time, she made a decision on her own: "Your Highness, He Shaochen is a huge obstacle to us. Why don't you let me assassinate him …"
"Don't do anything stupid!"
Ravel's voice became serious.
Lacey's heart trembled. She clenched her fists and said in a low voice: "But, now that He Shaochen has publicized his relationship with Lilith, there will be more and more people supporting them. This is a huge threat to you."
He Shaochen must be eliminated!
Lacey looked at He Shaochen's face on the television screen, and a murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
Suddenly, the TV screen went black.
Lacey's eyelashes trembled as she saw Ravel put down the remote control in his hand. He then stood up and walked over to her, gently pulling her into his embrace.
Lacey froze.
"Your Highness Ravel …"
Ravel rested his chin on her shoulder and played with Lacey's long hair with his fingertips. He said in a low voice, "He Shaochen's identity is special. If you act rashly, you won't get away with it. The assassinations that man faces every day are no less than those of the royal family. The fact that he is still safe and sound shows that the protection system around him is perfect. Assassinating him is not worth it."
"Don't worry, Your Highness. Even if we die together, I will get rid of him."
In order to help Ravel ascend the throne, she had already disregarded her life and death. She would only feel honored to lose her life for him.
Ravel sighed.
Why was this girl so stubborn?
He held her face and said seriously, "I don't want my dear Lacey to die with another man for me. Otherwise, I won't have a wife in the future."
Lacey was stunned for two seconds, and a suspicious blush appeared on her face.
She quickly pushed Ravel away and kept a distance from him. She said in a low voice, "Your Highness, please don't say such things again. I'm just your executive officer. There's no other identity for this."
Ravel seemed to be used to Lacey's rejection, so he didn't care.
He put his hands in his pockets and became a sloppy young master again. He said shamelessly, "Then what should I do? I find that I can't get it up when I'm with other women. I only feel it when I'm with you. If you don't become my wife, I'll be a bachelor in the future. "
Lacey's face turned even redder.
She lowered her head and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, please don't joke anymore."
How could there be such a strange thing in this world?
She already knew that Ravel liked to tease people, but why was her heart still beating so fast?
Lacey, you're just a chess piece. You can't have any thoughts about this noble person!
Lacey kept hinting to herself in her heart.
At this time, Ravel lifted her chin and forced her to look up. Lacey's eyes reflected Ravel's handsome face. Ravel's expression was serious and there was no longer any teasing expression on his face. He said, "Lacey, do you think I'm joking right now?"
"Your Highness …"
Lacey looked away and said with difficulty, "We are …"
"I can give you time to think about it, but I don't have much patience. I hope you can give me an answer as soon as possible." Ravel pushed aside Lacey's long hair and kissed her earlobe. He said in a low voice, "Remember, don't find trouble with He Shaochen. That man is more dangerous than you think. Also, don't think about assassinating Lilith. I don't want you to end up like Isabelle."
Lacey bit her lips and deliberately ignored the first half of Ravel's words. She asked, "Then what should we do?"
They were clearly at a disadvantage right now.
Ravel gave a soft laugh and helplessly said, "Why is it that in your eyes, I'm a despicable person who can only use despicable tricks to win?"
Lacey was stunned. She immediately shook her head and said, "No, I didn't mean that!"
"Since we can't do it in the dark, we'll do it in the open. We'll take the throne in an open and aboveboard manner." Ravel said in an incomparably relaxed manner.
"But the other side has He Shaochen as a powerful backer. Our strength isn't enough."
Ravel smiled mysteriously and said, "Lacey, external support doesn't mean everything. Let me tell you one thing, if you want to win this Inheritance War, you can't just throw in money. When it comes to politics, I'm much more proficient than that half-baked little girl. In the end, who will lose and who will win is still uncertain."
Lacey looked at Ravel. He had regained his confident appearance.
She didn't know why, but following him, she always felt inexplicably at ease, as if everything would go smoothly.
Then, she heard Ravel mutter to himself, "Who wins and who loses, this is a matter of our Charlie Royal Family. We don't need others to interfere."
Lacey's body suddenly froze and stiffened.
Seeing this, Ravel's amber eyes flashed with a gloomy look, but he quickly recovered and smiled, "I'm talking about He Clan. They can cover the sky with one hand in A Country, but it's not their turn to intervene in our J Country's affairs."
Lacey pursed her lips and changed the subject, "Your Highness, I'll go prepare tomorrow's itinerary."
"Good, you can go."
After Lacey left, Ravel walked to his desk and took out a secret document from the drawer. He had read this document over and over again countless times.
J。
He once accidentally saw this letter on the inside of Lacey's arm, and when the forensic doctor examined Isabelle's body, he also found this letter in her palm. It was carved out with her nails, indicating that she had encountered something before she died, and the message on her palm was left behind by her.
What was she trying to convey to him?
It wasn't until this secret document appeared that Ravel had a clue. He understood that a conspiracy was slowly approaching him, or rather, the entire Royal Family.
He didn't tell anyone about this shocking secret, and all the people who investigated this matter were sent to other places.
Ravel leaned on the sofa and muttered in a low voice, "Lacey, don't let me down."

Qiao Qiao and He Shaochen's relationship was made public. Although the support of the citizens was increasing, there was no obvious change within the Royal Family.
Because even if He Shaochen gave up the heir, it didn't change that their child only had a quarter of the royal bloodline of J Country. It was basically impossible for him to become the heir of the Royal Family. There were even people who speculated that this was a meticulously planned conspiracy by He Clan and even A Country. They said that they would give up the child as the heir of Family He, but in reality, they wanted to use this to shake the foundation of the J Country's Royal Family!
For this reason, the Royal Family, the Elder's Courtyard, and various people with high status gathered and decided to hold a meeting regarding this matter.
The time was set for five days later.
"Everyone's reaction is really intense."
Qiao Qiao looked at the petition on the table and sighed.
"This is still considered good. Lilith, how do you plan to deal with this matter?"
Adam asked.
Qiao Qiao pursed her lips. "What else can we do? The law clearly states that the heir's bloodline can't be mixed. Anyway, we've already won one round, so let's just compromise this time. "
It was good that her child couldn't be the next heir. She didn't want them to be bound by the Royal Family in the future.
Moreover, even if she ascended the throne, she didn't intend to be the Queen forever. So the matter that others were arguing about had little impact on her.
"If we want to win, we have to keep winning. How can we compromise so easily this time?"
He Shaochen walked in without hesitation.
Qiao Qiao and Adam looked up at him at the same time.
When Adam saw He Shaochen, he couldn't help but frown. "Mr. He, even if you and Her Highness Lilith have made your relationship public, please don't casually walk into Her Highness's administrative office like this. Business is business, personal is personal. Please distinguish between the two! Our herald isn't just for show. The next time you come, please send someone to inform him first. "
He Shaochen didn't think much of it. "I'm here for business this time! Moreover, I sent the herald in to inform him. What does his slow speed have to do with me? "
As soon as he finished speaking, the herald rushed in, panting. "Your Highness, Mr. He … is here …"
Adam held his forehead and said to the herald, "We know. You can leave."
"Yes …" The herald immediately shrank back.
He Shaochen raised his eyebrows. "See, I did inform him!"
Adam didn't know what to say, but his brows were still tightly knitted.
"Alright, both of you, stop fighting." Qiao Qiao interrupted the two, then said to He Shaochen, "Shaochen, you're in the wrong this time. After all, this isn't a market. If you casually walk in like this, it will cause a bad influence. Remember to inform him the next time you come."
With that, Qiao Qiao turned her head and said to Adam, "Adam, don't be angry. I'll tell him to be careful."
Hearing Qiao Qiao's words, Adam's expression eased.
"Tsk."
He Shaochen's face immediately darkened. His cold gaze swept over Adam. If looks could kill, Adam would have been shot to death countless times.
Adam also looked at him coldly. The two men's gazes began to fight in the air.
When would these two be able to peacefully stay under the same roof?
