Chapter 823: Chapter 822: Coming to Seek Peace, Hoping to Return to the Past

Moore walked into the room and saw Alfredo standing beside the bed, dressed in hospital garb, with the bruises on his face having faded but still leaving faint traces.

Finally, Moore’s gaze fell on Alfredo’s injured arm, and his eyes narrowed slightly, “That was the little princess who broke it, wasn’t it?”

Moore had had the fortune to see Wen Xin in action, so he looked at Alfredo’s injuries and knew without thinking that it was Wen Xin’s handiwork, so he wasn’t too surprised.

Alfredo glanced at Moore indifferently and lay back down on the hospital bed, resting his uninjured arm on his forehead in a manner that showed he had no wish to deal with Moore.

Moore looked at Alfredo, full of grievances, and smiled lightly, “Aren’t you just blaming me for taking action against the Elders Guild because of Mu Chengxi? I had no choice, she’s the little princess’s person. Do I have the right to stop the little princess from doing what she wants?”

“All right, I came here today to seek reconciliation. If possible, let’s make peace. You’re not that bad after all. If you really were that bad, you wouldn’t have let Sun Ning go save Mu Chengxi.”

“Aren’t we all aiming for the same goal? It’s just to protect the little princess.”

Moore’s gaze was gentle as he looked at Alfredo, his eyes containing an indescribable softness, as if he were coaxing a sulking child.

Listening to Moore’s words, Alfredo sighed helplessly as he lay in the hospital bed. From the moment Sun Ning was brought up, he couldn’t deny his concern for Wen Xin.

He just didn’t want Wen Xin to be sad or upset, which is why he had Sun Ning go save Mu Chengxi, but at the same time, he didn’t want Mu Chengxi to survive.

In his mind, only if Mu Chengxi died would Wen Xin possibly return to his side. He was selfish; all he wanted was Wen Xin.

“The little princess ran into trouble in Beijing, did you know?”

As soon as Alfredo finished speaking, Moore, who was peeling an apple for Alfredo, paused slightly.

“The little princess ran into trouble? What happened, what’s going on?”

Moore tossed the apple in his hand straight into the trash can, looking at Alfredo in shock. He couldn’t believe that someone would dare to harm Wen Xin in Mu Chengxi’s territory. Who was it that wished to court death?

“The little princess was in a car accident. Her arm and shoulder were injured, and Sun Ning performed the surgery, repeatedly assuring that the little princess’s arm functionality wouldn’t be affected.”

After Alfredo finished speaking, Moore unconsciously let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Wen Xin was fine, otherwise, he really didn’t know how to explain to the elders.

After heaving a sigh of relief, Moore seemed to think of something else. He sat by Alfredo’s hospital bed, looking intently at Alfredo.

“Have they found out who did it? It must be related to Independent State or the Old Fox, right?”

Moore’s first instinct was that it was the Old Fox’s doing. Ever since Wen Xin blew up the Wen family, Moore had been waiting for the Old Fox to make a move.

However, what surprised them was that this time, the Old Fox hadn’t made any moves, but instead had become much quieter, which made them all feel that the Old Fox might be planning something big.

“I don’t know if it’s related to the Old Fox, but what can be certain is that this matter is definitely related to Wen Yunuo.”

“`

“I’ve also heard that the little princess’s car accident has something to do with Jiang Linyan, and right now, in Beijing, he has been supporting the Jiang family. That old thing from the Jiang family wants to leverage the relationship with Independent State to control Beijing.”

“Now, becoming a piece on Wen Yunuo’s chessboard, I feel a large part of what Jiang Linyan did was orchestrated by Wen Yunuo!”

Alfredo looked at Moore and didn’t say the definite answer he knew; instead, he hinted at the truth about the matter to Moore. He didn’t want Moore to know he was involved as well. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

Even if his involvement was to protect Wen Xin, it wasn’t excusable.

After listening to Alfredo, Moore abruptly stood up, his hands clenched into fists, “I knew that Old Fox couldn’t be trusted; but I never imagined he could be so ruthless, even thinking about making a move on the little princess.”

“Alfredo, another reason I came today was to ask for your help with something. I’ve detained a batch of goods from the Wen family at the docks, and I hope you can sign this official document, preventing them from taking the goods away…”

While speaking, Moore took a paper from his pocket and laid it in front of Alfredo, the bald man quickly moved over and took the wrinkled sheet of paper from Moore’s hand, the most crumpled official document he had ever seen.

With the bald man’s assistance, Alfredo made out the content on the paper. He hesitated for a moment, unsure whether to agree; the matter was quite significant, and he didn’t know how much trouble his signature would cause.

Seeing Alfredo’s hesitant expression, Moore’s face suddenly darkened, and he began speaking with a hint of sarcasm.

“I thought you were sincere about the little princess! The little princess got hit by a car in Beijing, and here you are, hesitating to do something for her. Weren’t you already aware? The docks are hers, so detaining the goods there is as good as keeping them in the little princess’s hands.”

“If you’re too scared to even sign this, then I’ve really lost all respect for you!”

Moore’s words hit Alfredo hard, but Alfredo was an extremely rational person. Under normal circumstances, Moore’s words wouldn’t have affected him at all.

However, today was different. Alfredo already wanted to cause trouble for the Wen family, and now that Moore presented such a good opportunity, how could he not cherish it?

He only hesitated briefly before picking up his pen from the desk, biting off the cap, and then, under the bald man’s guidance, signing his name on the document.

“Take it, do whatever you want with it. If there’s trouble, I’ll have your back.”

As Alfredo made his decision, he felt an unprecedented sense of relief. Finally, he could follow his own wishes for once; the feeling was exhilarating.

Moore took the document from the bald man, his brows slightly raised, “Thank you for your support. Rest assured, the little princess will surely be pleased when she learns of this, and of course, I will make sure your contributions are known to her!”

At this point, Moore paused, then stepped closer to Alfredo, speaking very earnestly.

“There are many ways to protect the little princess, and it’s not necessary to be her husband. The princess won’t accept a marriage that exists in name only.”

“I still miss the days when the little princess called you ‘brother.’ I am the little princess’s Knight, and you are the brother she recognizes. Don’t you think those were the happiest times?”

“You know how reserved the little princess is; the people she acknowledges must be special. Perhaps there’s something about Mu Chengxi that you lack, and that’s why she’s attracted to her.”
