Don't Hurt Lilith
"I still need to chat with the ladies in front of us. Let's meet on the dance floor later." Phillips said again.
"Do as you wish."
Phillips nodded. He pulled the silent Eve beside him, and like a gentle gentleman, he said, "Eve, let's go."
They exchanged a few pleasantries before parting ways.
"Lacey, you don't look too good."
Lacey's face was pale. She only regained her senses after hearing Ravel's words.
She smiled. "I'm fine."
Her gaze inadvertently fell on Phillips in front of her. This man's figure was very similar to the man she met at the auction that day. Although his voice sounded much younger, there were many people in the organization who had a variety of voices.
The more she looked, the more they resembled each other.
This Phillips was most likely the man with the silver mask!
If she remembered correctly, the dance partner beside him was Lilith's subordinate, the head of the Department of Wei 'an, Eve. Did this mean that the J Organisation had already decided that Lilith would be the next Queen?
Was His Highness Ravel already an abandoned pawn?
How could this be?
The person who should rule the world should be Ravel!
"Lacey, Lacey?"
Ravel called Lacey several times, but he still couldn't call her back to her senses.
His amber eyes darkened. He suddenly walked in front of her, stretched out his hands, and slapped Lacey's face.
The pain instantly woke Lacey up. She looked at the serious Ravel in front of her in shock. "Your Highness, you …"
Ravel pressed his hands on Lacey's shoulders. He said seriously and sternly, "I won't allow another man's figure to appear in your sight!"
Lacey was even more shocked. A trace of helplessness appeared on her face.
Ravel stepped forward and stroked her cheek. His handsome face was calm at the moment. He said word by word, "Don't look at other men all the time, even in your heart. You are my executive officer. Just think of me in your heart!"
Lacey could not help but laugh at such a domineering declaration.
"Your Highness, aren't you being too overbearing?"
It was inconsistent with his character.
Ravel was disdainful. "I'm just that domineering when it comes to you!"
He had become the unreasonable and willful little prince again.
However, Lacey found that the behavior that used to give her the most headaches was now so cute. Emerald's eyes were soft and gentle. She nodded and said, "Yes, Your Highness."
…
On the other side, Eve was holding onto Phillips's arm. At this moment, she was like an upper-class socialite from a prestigious family. Her beautiful posture frequently attracted the attention of others. In this ball, she was undoubtedly the shining point.
Phillips faintly glanced at the lewd gazes of the surrounding men.
He pursed his lips and lowered his head to look at Eve beside him. He lowered his voice and said, "I didn't expect you to adapt so well to the upper-class ball."
Eve's expression was indifferent. She disagreed with Phillips's words. "If I'm at a loss in such a situation, I don't need to carry out the mission."
As a member of Cyan J, Eve was undoubtedly very outstanding in it. She could deal with all kinds of situations freely and her mission completion rate was as high as 97%, second only to Adam. This made her a very dazzling star in the J Organisation.
Phillips admired Eve's indifference.
However, the more she was like this, the more he couldn't help but want to see her panic.
Just like in the past, when she revealed a repressed and uncontrollable expression of indulgence under his body, it made his body feel like it was burning fiercely, and even his throat became parched.
He purposely leaned closer to Eve and whispered into her ear in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Say, if I were to f * ck you right here, would you still be able to maintain such a calm expression?"
His voice was low and hoarse with intoxicating magnetism.
Clearly feeling Eve's body stiffen, she raised her head and glared at him.
This hooligan!
Phillips smiled with satisfaction.
This was the expression he wanted to see.
When the ball started.
Everyone entered the dance floor, but Ravel and Lacey took advantage of the dim light to avoid the crowd and went to see Duke Kruje.
In the Duke's study.
"You should know that this old man hasn't been in charge for a long time. I probably can't help you." Kruje shook his head with difficulty.
Ravel already knew that Kruje would answer like this, so he wasn't surprised.
"Duke, as a member of three generations, you have also seen our J Country become prosperous today. However, Lilith's actions will destroy the J Country's current peace. If the inheritance law is changed, the royal family will definitely usher in turmoil! I don't believe that you will stand on her side. "
Kruje lowered his head, his round face like a Maitreya Buddha showing a very difficult expression.
"To tell you the truth, before you came, Lilith had already come to see me."
Lacey's face changed, she was about to speak but was stopped by Ravel.
He looked at Duke Kruje and said: "I believe that the Duke isn't on her side. Otherwise, you wouldn't have specially invited people to find us, right?"
Kruje looked at Ravel and smiled: "What a sharp boy."
He paused, then moved to Lacey. Lacey understood and very sensibly turned around, "Your Highness, I will wait for you outside."
"Okay."
Ravel nodded.
After Lacey left, the whole study was left with only Ravel and Kruje.
Kruje's round face showed a helpless smile, "Lilith is a good child. If it wasn't for the matter of changing the inheritance law, I would probably choose to support her."
"Oh?"
Ravel raised his eyebrows.
It seems that Kruje also noticed that something was wrong.
He pondered for a moment, his amber eyes flashed, he smiled meaningfully and said: "The Duke is also very opposed to this bill. Did you also see some clues?"
Kruje shook his head and smiled: "Your Highness, you don't have to test me. Since I am willing to talk to you in secret, I have also prepared to cooperate with you."
After that, his face suddenly became serious, he said word by word: "The bill to change the inheritance law must not be passed! This is a conspiracy that has been planned for a long time! "
"Why?"
Kruje opened his mouth, he suddenly thought of something, he turned around and walked to the desk, took out the remote control, blocked all the surrounding signals to prevent them from being eavesdropped, then said in a deep voice: "I don't know if Your Highness has heard of an organization called 'J'."
"The Duke also knows about the J Organisation?"
This was out of Ravel's expectation.
"So you are also secretly investigating this organization? But listen to me, before you have enough ability, stop the investigation, or your situation will become very dangerous! Let me guess, when you investigated the J Organisation, there are probably no less than 20 people who died, right? "
More than 20 people?
Almost 200 people died.
Ravel smiled bitterly in his heart.
Kruje's expression was a bit heavy, he sat on the chair and looked at a picture in front of him, showing a nostalgic look, "Rowino was a very outstanding child, if he was still alive, he would definitely become a wise ruler, he would lead our J Country to a more glorious future, and even catch up with the strongest country, A Country. What a pity, such a person still died in the hands of that organization."
Kruje's understatement made Adam show a shocked expression, "Prince Rowino didn't die in the hands of my father?"
Kruje glanced at him. "If that useless father of yours can get rid of Rovino, I'll write my name backwards!"
Ravel: "…"
Kruje continued to shake his head, "That organization is very mysterious, so mysterious that you don't even know how big it is. I am a coward, although I want to avenge Rowino, I am afraid that not only will I not be able to take revenge, but I will also implicate my family, so I don't know much about the J Organisation."
"Until now, no one knows about the existence of the J Organisation?"
Ravel asked.
This organization that threatened the existence of the J Country was like a huge monster entrenched in the J Country, but the funny thing was, after so many years, no one knew about the existence of that organization!
"Those who went to investigate are all dead."
Kruje shook his head regretfully, then said, "But through this incident, I finally confirmed one thing."
"What is it?"
Ravel asked.
Kruje looked at him seriously, and said calmly, "The person who established the J Organisation must be related to the royal family, and this person's bloodline must be related to the clan, but it is not pure!"
"So Lilith's child is just a cover, saying that it is to help Lilith, but in fact, that organization is only using her to amend this bill, to make their inheritance legal."
Kruje nodded.
"If my guess is correct, then it is just as you said, so, we must not let this bill pass!"
Kruje had always been a person who was wise to protect himself, but he was also a supporter of the royal family of Charlie. No matter how the royal family of Charlie fought for the throne, he could ignore it, but an impure bastard wanted to touch the throne, and even assassinated a promising heir, this was something he could not tolerate.
So no matter how good Qiao Qiao was, Kruje would choose to stand on Ravel's side.
"If you ascend the throne, you must promise not to harm Lilith."
This was Kruje's only request.
Because she was Lovino's child, he could not watch as Lovino's bloodline was cut off.
Ravel nodded solemnly, "I swear by my real name, I will never harm Lilith."
In the eyes of outsiders, he and Qiaoqiao were fighting until the sky turned dark and the earth turned dark.
But no one knew that he never had the intention to kill Qiao Qiao.
Even when he was at the peak of his anger, he only wanted to exile Qiao Qiao, and not kill her.
When Charles VII died, he asked him to treat his family well.
Ravel engraved his words in his heart, and never forgot them.
After receiving Ravel's reply, Kruje showed a gratified smile, "Although there are too many scandals about you, and your reputation is not very good, but my view of you has changed a lot. Perhaps, you really can become a wise emperor."
Ravel showed a faint smile, he shrugged and said, "Duke, sometimes what you see with your own eyes is not necessarily the truth."
