You finally got it right!
Ravel's expression changed.
Teresa's attack power was definitely not weak. Even if she met someone like Adam or Phillips, she would still have a 50% chance of winning.
Her hands were free. Even if there were guards beside her, Ravel did not dare to let his guard down. He looked at her cautiously, in case she suddenly attacked.
His guards judged that Teresa was extremely dangerous. When they caught her before, they already had a taste of her skills. So, before Ravel gave the order, they had already rushed forward and tried to subdue her. But this time, it was as if Teresa had turned on a cheat. Her body was extremely nimble, and she easily dodged the attacks of those people.
Those people could not even get close to her.
In just a few moves, she had beaten all of them down, but she did not kill them.
In the blink of an eye, only Ravel and her were left.
Ravel frowned as he looked at her. His expression gradually became serious. Teresa could not help but chuckle when she saw his cautious look. If she really wanted to attack him, he would not even have the chance to fight back.
She was a tool, a tool specially used to kill people. How to use the fastest speed to subdue a person was her specialty. His Highness the Crown Prince, who lived like a prince, would definitely not be able to surpass her.
Teresa looked up at Ravel and smiled. "Your Highness, can you listen to what I have to say now?"
Ravel: "…"
Teresa took a deep breath and slowly said, "I'll say it again. My name is Teresa, not Lacey. I'm very honored that you've given me the love that originally belonged to Lacey. However, tools also have their dignity. I don't want to be a substitute. I don't want others to see someone else's shadow in me." Teresa had wanted to say these words to Ravel for a long time, but she did not have the chance. He would not listen to her at all. Now was a good time.
She stepped forward and walked towards Ravel step by step. Only when she was less than a centimeter away from him did she stop.
"Actually, I know that you planted a listening device on me, because I also planted a listening device on you. You know my actions, but how can I not know yours?" She raised her hand and took out a millimeter-sized eavesdropping device from the back of Ravel's head. Then, she crushed the tiny eavesdropping device. "Every night of intimate contact, you really have too many flaws …"
At this point, Ravel didn't really care when Teresa put the listening device on him. He couldn't feel any killing intent from Teresa. "Then you knew about my plan from the start, right? Then why did he return to the J Organisation? And purposely exposed his whereabouts? "
It could even be said that the man's defeat this time was caused by Teresa.
Wasn't she the organization's most loyal dog? Such behavior was no different from betrayal.
Or was she planning to beat him at his own game and get the necklace?
Teresa paused. She lowered her eyes and thought for a moment. Then, she answered, "The Queen, no, Her Highness Lilith is very good to me. I also like her very much. If the necklace can really save her, I'm very willing to give it to her."
So, was this a case of good people having good karma?
Ravel couldn't help but laugh. He thought it was because …
Later, Teresa changed the topic. She said in a declarative tone, "If I can't fulfill your love, then I'll keep your family. I've always remembered this sentence in my heart."
After she finished speaking, she looked at him seriously and persistently.
From Ravel's point of view, there was something similar to love in her gaze.
He was completely stunned and looked at her in astonishment. So, she would save Lilith because of what he said?
If she couldn't fulfill her love, then she would keep her family for him?
Teresa smiled faintly.
Her smile was very beautiful. Although her face was stained with mud, it didn't affect her elegant appearance at all. "I don't know when it started, but I actually placed Your Highness in my heart. I couldn't chase you away even if I wanted to. Maybe I'm too envious of how well you treat Lacey. She's clearly a twin sister, but she can be so happy. Unknowingly, I've also been moved by you."
Ravel: "…"
His heart was beating rapidly. Ravel realized that he was a little nervous.
"So, I can't accept that I've become a substitute. I hope Your Highness can understand that the woman standing in front of you now is called Teresa, and not Lacey. Teresa is a human-shaped tool cultivated by the J Organisation. She was born to kill. So, Teresa doesn't have the right to love."
She tirelessly repeated the name Teresa over and over again. She wanted to use this method to make Ravel remember that she was Teresa.
"Last time, I stood on the fence of the mansion and said goodbye to you. You probably didn't hear it. This time, I'll say it again …" Teresa suddenly stepped forward. She stood on her tiptoes and hugged Ravel. She mumbled, "Farewell, Your Highness Ravel. Teresa loves you."
Teresa loves you.
Loves you …
Those words kept echoing in his mind. Ravel's mind went blank. He felt as though he was caught unprepared.
Teresa had always been a taciturn person. She would only say a few words a day. However, this time, she seemed to have said all the words she wanted to say for the rest of her life. This gave him an ominous feeling.
He wanted to hug her back. However, before he could raise his hand, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his neck. It was as though he had been pricked by something. His eyes narrowed as he saw Teresa slowly release him. She was holding a syringe in her hand.
"What … did you inject … into me?" Ravel felt an intense sense of dizziness. The world spun around him and he nearly lost his footing. He did his best to shake his head. Then, he pressed down on his head and looked at Teresa.
"Please don't worry. I injected you with an anesthetic. You will only sleep for a few hours. It will not affect your body in any way."
Teresa tossed the syringe aside and turned around.
Ravel could not even stand properly. He half-knelt on the ground. He pressed down on his head and stared at Teresa's departing figure. He shouted, "Do you want to go back and throw your life away? If you go back, He Shaochen's men will treat you as an enemy and kill you. Even if you rescue your master, he will kill you because you failed your mission! No matter what the outcome is, you will still die! "
"I know."
Teresa continued to walk forward and did not stop.
"If you know, then why do you still want to go back?!" Ravel shouted angrily at Teresa. He wanted to chase after her and stop her, but all the muscles in his body were numb. He could not muster up any strength. His hands, which were supporting him on the ground, sank deep into the mud. He gritted his teeth and said, "Come back! You are not allowed to go! "
However, Teresa did not listen to him at all.
Ravel was angry and anxious. He desperately wanted to grab Teresa, but his body restricted his movements. He fell heavily on the ground. However, he continued to stare at Teresa. His heart was suddenly filled with panic.
His body was becoming more and more uncontrollable. His brain was also becoming insufficient. He could not think of anything. However, there was only one thought in his mind, and that was to stop Teresa.
"Stupid woman, didn't I ask you to stop? Come back! Teresa, I order you to come back! "
Teresa's feet paused and she stopped.
Seeing that she had stopped moving, Ravel's heart was once again rekindled with hope. It seemed that the name Teresa was still effective on her.
He continued to shout at her, "Teresa, don't go!"
Teresa turned around and looked at Ravel, who was lying on the ground. She tried to squeeze out a smile, but tears had already flowed down her cheeks. "Your Highness … I finally got it right this time."
She was Teresa, not Lacey.
Ravel let out a long breath. It seemed that she really cared about this name. He continued to shout at her, "Teresa, Teresa, Teresa …"
If he could make her stay by doing this, so what if he called her Teresa in the future?
Teresa cried silently for a while. Then, she wiped her eyes and performed the standard etiquette of a socialite to Ravel. "Your Highness Ravel, please forget the sorrow of the past and pursue new happiness. Lacey and I will be watching you from the sky."
With every word she said, Ravel's face darkened.
When he saw Teresa turn around again, he shouted dejectedly, "What do I have to do to make you stay?!"
He didn't know why he was so nervous about this woman. In fact, he knew very well that this woman was called Teresa and not Lacey. However, he still wanted her to stay. He didn't want to watch her die without doing anything.
He shouted again and again until his throat was almost broken.
However, Teresa walked further and further away as if she didn't hear him.
Ravel, who was born with an incomparably noble status, would never understand how important a home was to people like him.
She and Lacey were both abandoned babies. If the J Organisation hadn't picked them up, they would have died long ago.
Therefore, in Teresa's heart, the J Organisation was her home. The people inside were her second parents. Her life that should have ended long ago was left behind by them. Therefore, this life should be returned to them.
Lacey had chosen the opposite path, and Teresa did not blame her.
Everyone had their own ambitions.
Therefore, she chose to follow the J Organisation. Even if that place was condemned and despised by tens of thousands of people, it was still the place that raised her. It taught her all kinds of knowledge and taught her the ability to endure and survive. She couldn't ignore it.
Going back was a dead end.
However, she still had to go back. She had to fulfill the last bit of her responsibility as a member of the J Organisation. She had to save her master. If she couldn't save him, then she would go to hell with him.
Behind her came a roar that sounded like a wild beast. This sound was undoubtedly coming from Ravel's mouth.
His voice sounded so hoarse and desperate, like a trapped beast.
Teresa didn't know why the tears that she had finally stopped started flowing again. However, she didn't stop. Instead, she continued to walk forward.
In the end, she simply covered her ears and jogged away.
In the end, Ravel couldn't resist the effects of the anesthetic. He seemed to see Lacey's figure when she left.
These two people were so similar.
Damn it!
