Chapter 106
What Lebert didn't say was that the people who did the attack were indeed the Queen's men, but the Queen shouldn't have known about this, nor should she have interfered in this matter.
He had investigated and found that the mother of Emily's family had asked to see the queen after he left the palace that day...
That night.
When Emily received the invitation from Duke Robert, she thought that the other party had changed his mind and was ready to accept her as his wife.
She dressed up and walked into the Duke's manor again with a proud look on her face.
Even when she was greeting, Emily was particularly perfunctory.
She sat down like a hostess and naturally picked up the coffee that Duke Lebert prepared for her.
"I wonder why the Duke invited me here tonight?"
Emily, with delicate makeup, had a beautiful smile and her eyes showed undisguised determination and ambition.
This condescending attitude made the smile on Duke Lebert's lips seem a little cold.
He tapped the armrest of the sofa with his slender fingers wearing a ruby ring, and a meaningful smile appeared in his ice-blue eyes.
"When did it start..."
The mature, powerful, cold and sharp Duke changed his previous cold attitude towards Emily.
His free and unrestrained eyebrows and handsome profile were like sunshine reflecting on snow, making Emily's heart skip a beat.
"It started when I rejected your match, right?"
"You were jealous that I preferred a genderless girl to you, so you attacked her, right?"
Hearing this, Emily's hand holding the coffee cup trembled -
Brown coffee stains splashed onto her beautiful skirt.
Just like her viciousness that could not be hidden, it was particularly conspicuous.
"You failed the first time, so you attacked me a second time at my proposal dinner. You are really cruel and careful enough to even arrange for someone to kill and silence me."
"It's just that, despite all your calculations, you didn't expect that the explosion would leave someone alive..."
"You were afraid that I would track you down, so you asked your mother to meet the Queen and have her kill the man, right?"
Emily couldn't laugh anymore.
But her livid face only showed the anger and shame of having her disguise exposed.
Putting down the coffee cup, Emily raised her red lips and sneered fearlessly, "So what?"
"Duke, she is just a lowly asexual person, such a filthy ant, is it necessary for you to do this?"
"The Duke said that I did it. Are there any witnesses? Or, is there any evidence?"
Duke Lebert did not get angry in the face of Emily's provocation.
Under Emily's shocked gaze, he slowly opened the hidden live broadcast on the computer, and then cut off the live broadcast in front of her.
After doing all this, Duke Lebert stood up and glanced at Emily coldly, "I can't kill you directly for now, but I want to..."
"You are ruined, so I guess you won't be able to match with any outstanding males."
"see a visitor out!"
"Lebert! How dare you plot against me?!" Emily, with an ugly look on her face, was so angry that she threw the coffee cup beside her.
The robot butler, detecting the violence, came over with a red alert flashing and roughly restrained Emily.
"Please stop the violence! Otherwise this machine will go into attack mode!"
When has Emily, who is so proud, ever been treated like this?
Her eyes turned red with anger, her expression was distorted with pain, and she looked at Leibert's back with resentment.
She did regret it.
But what she regretted was not that she had done bad things, but that she failed to kill that bitch Shen Yinyin!
On the way back, because of Duke Lebert's intervention, Emily's arrogant disguised confession video had been spread all over the interstellar network -
[I have always known that females are evil, but Emily is a top female, how can she be so cruel...]
[She is actually jealous of a genderless person? This is hilarious! Hahahaha! I thought she was so noble!]
[The Empire's protection of females is too much. She even killed someone, and it's okay?]
[She is so vicious, which male dares to be her husband...]
[It’s hard to say. There are too many males in the middle and lower levels who can’t match the female wife. She still has someone who wants her~]
Emily was so angry at the flood of sarcastic remarks that she smashed things all over the house.
"Someone, take down all these videos! Take them down!"
But the intervention of Duke Leibert's forces doomed Emily to be helpless and furious.
In the villa.
When Noel and Norton saw this video, their brows were furrowed, and their eyes were filled with unconcealed disgust for Emily.
In the past few days, Nuoer has been suffering from the fact that he tempted Shen Yinyin at the dinner party and caused her to be injured.
So, after learning that Emily was the murderer behind the incident, he almost wanted to kill her.
But he also knew that even someone as high-ranking as Robert couldn't touch Emily, let alone him.
"Why can such a vicious and disgusting thing receive the most respectful treatment..."
Thinking of the extra people in his own villa, Noel's face became even gloomier.
"Norton, Daisy is hiding her injury and is clearly lying."
"Interstellar pirates are brutal by nature. How could she escape with just a broken hand? Send her back to Planet Six tomorrow. I really don't want to see her again!"
Even if the other party is someone from his family, he can't give him any good face.
Although Norton said nothing, he nodded in agreement.
At the same time, the young man who was hiding in the darkness to avoid being tracked looked a little pale because of a severe headache.
That night, the boy killed a group of males in order to save Shen Yinyin, which eventually attracted the attention of the imperial royal family.
During this period, the group of people hiding in the dark, secretly tracking and investigating him have been getting closer and closer.
The young man was breathing heavily, with dark blue hair wet with cold sweat, covering his eyes which were glowing red.
The familiar yet vague fragments of memory that kept flashing through his mind made him feel inexplicably panic.
He felt that as he was about to regain his memory, the distance between him and the girl seemed to be getting farther and farther.
She hated the Zerg to begin with. If she knew my true identity, she would definitely never get close to me again...
Just imagining her disgust and fear of him was more than he could bear.
Shaking off the people behind him, the young man endured the pain and climbed into the manor.
Shen Yinyin was sitting on the bed after taking a shower, lost in thought because of the video, when suddenly there was a slight sound from the window -
She looked up and saw the handsome young man with a pale face, lying quietly by the window, looking at her.
He looked even more miserable and pitiful than the last time he appeared, like a homeless stray puppy.
"Why are you like this? Did something happen?"
"May I come inside?"
Shen Yinyin looked at the boy who came in without waiting for her answer, and the words on her lips were stuck.
I can only say that the other party was a little polite, but not much...
