Chapter 884 A Very Long Time


The Duke eyed the blond woman before he let out a sigh. "Arrest Leandro and Mikaela."


"Father! How could you?"


"How could I what, Leandro?" The Duke asked. "How could I have the knight arrest a criminal?"


"I— "


"You held us against our will. That is a crime itself. After that, you let your sister roam free despite knowing that she was responsible for stabbing me. She not only attacked the Grand Duke but also tried to cover up her crimes by working with you. Isn't that something that warrants an arrest?"


"Father!" Mikaela started bawling, her shoulders shook while eyeing her father, silently asking for him to reconsider. "That was a mistake."


"And yet you tried to use another mistake to hide it." Eliza, who stood next to her father, said. "How dare you cry right now when you didn't even shed a single sincere tear when you stabbed our father?" Eliza remembered growing up in a happy family. However, this all changed when these two fell in love. Was love really something that changes people? Or it only amplified the real characteristics of those who experience it?


"Eliza… calm down." Levi held his twin sister's shoulder. Eliza snorted in response, hate apparent in her eyes as she glared at Mikaela, who was now kneeling on the floor then into his greedy elder brother Leandro.


"Arrest them." The Duke repeated. In response, the knight that stood behind the Duke arrested the two.


"Father, you are making a mistake." Leandro insisted. His grandfather told him that he should be the next king. Now that he is in a compromising situation, his grandfather would surely help him, right? However, the Duke only stared at him before looking at Eliza.


"Release the evidence of their action, every proof that connects to them. Make an official statement apologizing for the scandal." The Duke said.


"Understood, father."


Leandro stared at the three people who stood in front of him, and then his gaze darted towards the blond woman standing by the door. He immediately knew who she was.


'Lily' he mouthed. The woman who single-handedly broke the Royal Family apart.


On the other side of the hall, the blond woman also stared at Leandro. Then a smile blossomed on her face. She knew that these two would blame her until they face their deaths. However, that is not something she could control. They could hate her all they want, but that won't affect the fact that she got herself a well-deserved justice. . Of course… This was nothing but an icing on the cake that she prepared for them. Her smile soon turned devious. "I won," Lily responded.


She remembered how Leandro called her to tell such words just seconds before they blew up the vehicle that they were in. She remembered the feeling of anger, and betrayal when the car burst into flames just a few seconds after they secretly got out of it. A few seconds late, and she, along with Zhou Jingren, Secretary Go and Qin Yuanfeng. She, along with her baby, would have become unrecognizable from the fire.


Lily remembered feeling the extreme heat from those fires. Sadly, those emotions are long gone by now. Feeling the same hate would have easily made her irrational. That was not healthy for her son, for her Kaen. Slowly, Lily let that hate turn into something close to indifference. Yet, she knew one day that she would come and make them pay for what they did.


And this day finally came.


She raised her eyebrow as if silently challenging Leandro to say something. Then, Lily chuckled. Seeing the defeat in both of their eyes was enough to make her day.


......….


When Leandro and Mikaela were sent to the same underground facility where they kept their father, the two immediately knew that something was definitely wrong. This was not the prison for the Royal Family! Both of them shivered as they eyed each other.


Was this Lily's plan all along? To kill them and make them suffer? To their surprise, the person waiting for them inside the room was not Lily. Instead, it was a man… that they have seen before.


"Bei— Bei Tian?" Leandro stuttered. How could he forget that man who reeks of blood? He could never forget the man's cautious eyes and arrogant smirk. Isn't this the man who accompanied Lily and Zhou Jingren in Skopelos? Isn't this Zhou Jingren's close friend?


The two immediately wondered why was he here instead of Lily or Zhou Jingren? Wait… Something is wrong. When Lily showed herself, there was no mention of Zhou Jingren. The man also didn't show himself. Surely, a man like him would not make his wife handle everything, right? Was it possible that….


Just like Harringfort, the two immediately concluded that something must have happened to Zhou Jingren. Something sinister…


If so, this only meant that they are done. How could Lily spare their lives now that Zhou Jingren died because of what happened?


"You should kill him!" Mikaela's voice surprised both 'Bei Tian' and Leandro. "He was the one who hurt your friend. I didn't know that he was planning to kill Zhou Jingren and Lily. I only told him to arrest them." Amusement flashed in 'Bei Tian's' eyes.


"You…" Shocked, Leandro looked at his sister. Despite being arrested, the two didn't have cuffs. Because of this, he was able to clutch his sister's arm. "How dare you! You were the one who told me to deal with them!"


"I— I didn't!" Mikaela used all her strength as she tried to remove his hand on her arm. "Leandro! You are hurting me! Let me go!" the struggling Mikaela said.


"Then why don't you tell them that you were the one who told me to deal with them? You are also the one who stabbed father without any remorse! If one of us should suffer, then that should be you!" he continued clutching her arm.


"Leandro! I said… let me go!" Mikaela sobbed. "My arm… you're hurting my arm." How could her strength equate to the power of her brother?


���Clowns."


The two stopped arguing when they heard 'Bei Tian's' voice. They stilled and turned their heads towards him. "Don't worry." 'Bei Tian' continued. "You won't die…. You two will live for a very… very long time." He smiled. "I promise."
