She had completely lost her sense of propriety.
Teresa's body stiffened for a moment.
The other party was keenly aware of this slight change. She narrowed her eyes and a sharp glint flashed across her eyes. "What is it? Could it be that you have already developed feelings for the people here? You can't bear to take action? "
"No!"
Teresa replied resolutely. However, she felt an inexplicable sense of guilt in her heart.
"That better be the case. If you develop feelings for this place and harm the interests of the J Organisation, I will not hesitate to report this matter to the Master. Betraying the J Organisation, betraying the Master, you should know better than anyone else what the consequences are, right?" The person moved closer to Teresa, pausing between each word. "You must not follow in your foolish sister's footsteps."
Lacey …
Teresa's hands slowly clenched into fists and she lowered her eyes. After two seconds, she slowly replied, "I, understand …"
Hearing Teresa's reply, the person laughed mockingly and continued to move forward. "That's good. You are the trump card in the Master's hands. How can you develop feelings so easily? I look forward to your performance this time. "
"… Yes."
Teresa nodded her head slightly. She came to Qiao Qiao's door and gently knocked on it. After receiving a response, she walked in. When the guards outside saw that it was Teresa, they followed her in. Teresa looked at the people behind her and her heart gradually sank. Recently, whenever she was alone with Qiao Qiao, someone would definitely come in.
It seemed that she had already been suspected by Adam. If she did not take action, even if he exposed her, it would be uncertain.
"Lacey, you're here. Why is your hand so cold? Don't catch a cold." Qiao Qiao walked over and held Lacey's hand. However, she found that Teresa's hand was as cold as ice.
Hearing Qiao Qiao's words of concern, Teresa felt even more guilty. However, she could only smile and thank her. "I will be careful. Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern."
"Mm, that's good. I …" Just as she was about to talk about that matter, Qiao Qiao noticed the two guards behind Teresa and said, "You two can leave first. I want to talk to Lacey for a while."
"But …" The guards were Adam's men. Their task was to isolate Qiao Qiao and Teresa so that they would not have the chance to be alone together. Thus, when they heard Qiao Qiao's order, they felt somewhat troubled...
However, Qiaoqiao didn't want others to know about this, so her attitude became tougher. "I said, I want to be alone with Lacey for a while. Do you have any objections?"
"No, we overstepped our boundaries." The two of them quickly lowered their heads and retreated.
Seeing the two people leave the room, Teresa retracted her gaze. She looked at Qiaoqiao and asked, "Queen, why are you looking for me?"
"Mm, I do have something to ask of you." Qiao Qiao nodded. She said seriously, "Can you help me investigate the news from A Country? I want to know what Shaochen has been doing recently. "
Teresa was stunned. Thinking of the news that had caused a stir even in J Country, she did not know anything.
Regardless of whether it was true or not, if Qiao Qiao knew about it, she would definitely be very sad. A pregnant woman could not be agitated. Subconsciously, she wanted to comfort Qiao Qiao first. However, when she thought of what her companion had said to her, she swallowed the words that were at the tip of her tongue. Her superiors had already given her a death order. She had to use Qiao Qiao to hold back the third fierce attack tomorrow …
Seeing Teresa hesitate, Qiao Qiao tilted her head slightly. She looked at Teresa in confusion and asked, "Lacey, what's wrong? Did something happen in A Country? Or did Shaochen meet with some trouble? "
Teresa opened her mouth and said, "Queen, I shouldn't have told you about this, but I don't want you to be kept in the dark. This is too unfair to you …"
Hearing Teresa's words, Qiao Qiao's heart sank. "As expected, something must have happened, right? What's going on between Shaochen and Xia Xi? "
Could it really be like what Mother He said? No, it was impossible! He Shaochen would not do this to her. It was impossible!
Teresa noticed that Qiao Qiao's hand, which was holding her, was trembling violently. She felt inexplicably suffocated and panicked.
The mission came first!
The mission came first!
Teresa repeated it a few times in her heart and continued, "This matter has caused a stir in A Country and J Country. Mr. Adam forbade everyone from telling the truth, probably to prevent you from being agitated …"
"Why would Adam do this?" Qiao Qiao was shocked. "What is he hiding from me?"
Actually, she had noticed that everyone had been a little strange these few days. Sometimes, they looked at her with unfathomable eyes. She was still wondering what had happened, but now it all made sense.
"Actually, I shouldn't have told you about this. I think that Mr. Adam was probably afraid that you would be agitated, so he ordered the people of the Holy Glory Palace not to talk about this matter. Actually, I shouldn't have mentioned this matter to you."
"Say it!" Qiao Qiao ordered. She bit her lips so hard that her delicate lips were almost torn. Her eyes were a little bloodshot as she said, "What exactly happened? Why would Adam deliberately hide it from me? "
If nothing had really happened, why would he go to this extent?
Qiao Qiao originally had a glimmer of hope, but reality slapped her in the face time and time again. Previously, she didn't believe Mother He's words, but now she was beginning to feel lost. Had He Shaochen already fallen in love with someone else?
Teresa let out a long sigh. "Your Majesty, I'm risking my life to tell you what I'm about to say. Please …"
"I will never tell anyone about you!"
Teresa pursed her lips, lowered her eyes, and walked to the computer. Her fingers quickly tapped on the screen and broke through the firewall set up. She pulled up the news that was spreading like wildfire in J Country and showed it to Qiao Qiao. "The hottest news right now is the news of Mr. He and Miss Xia Xi's engagement."
At this point, Teresa paused and looked like she wanted to say something but stopped.
Qiao Qiao felt that her heart was beating faster than it could handle. She snatched the mouse and began to browse the news on the Internet.
Among them, the news that was pushed up the most was the rumor of a shotgun marriage.
It was said that He Shaochen and Xia Xi had a shotgun marriage. Xia Xi was a hostess in a nightclub, and the two of them were infatuated with each other and had sex. Xia Xi's hospitalization this time was most likely because she was pregnant.
"Impossible!"
Qiao Qiao's entire body was trembling. Her blood seemed to have frozen, and a chill gradually spread from the bottom of her feet. It was so cold that it chilled her to the bone. She took a few steps back and shook her head. "It's only been a few days. How could she be pregnant so quickly? Shaochen wouldn't do such a thing with another woman! This is all fake. I don't believe it! "
"This is just a rumor. Whether it's true or not has not been confirmed. Queen, I shouldn't have told you these things. Don't get agitated …" Teresa closed the computer. Before she could finish speaking, she saw Qiao Qiao pick up her phone to call He Shaochen.
She was shocked. "Queen, what are you doing?"
"I don't believe it. I absolutely don't believe that He Shaochen would fall in love with another woman! I want to ask him personally! I want him to tell me the truth! " She couldn't care less about He Shaochen's feelings now. Even if he found her annoying, she wanted to know if all of this was true.
Pregnant women were emotionally unstable, paranoid, and sensitive. She had a conflict with He Shaochen, and their relationship had become rigid. This had planted the seeds of a crack in Qiao Qiao's heart. However, she had always acted rationally, and she trusted He Shaochen. Therefore, even if their relationship was getting worse, she still firmly believed in He Shaochen from the beginning to the end.
However, the recent events had begun to shake this determination.
