Thousands of Brilliant Stars: You Deserve the Best!-Chapter 157: Orion Crawford to the Rescue!

The plane traced an arc in the air, traveling from one end of the world to the other, landing at The Kingdom of L’s airport in the dead of night.

Jonas Kingsley tipped his hat lower, revealing only the lower half of his handsome face. He was dressed in a hoodie, walking through the VIP channel with Hannah Lennox following behind him, whispering, "This time we’ve come quietly. Do we need to inform the organization...?"

"Not for now."

Jonas squinted slightly, "The Royal Family doesn’t seem to be such an impressive place after all. I can handle them on my own."

"The First Prince Dante might be easy to deal with, but Lachlan Wyatt is another story..."

"Don’t worry, as soon as things involve Iris Crawford, Lachlan will become accommodating."

Who knows what Jonas is planning, Hannah glanced at her master a few more times, then silently lowered her head.

The next day, the sun rose, shining its dazzling and warm rays on every inch of land, as though darkness had never existed. Iris Crawford woke up in The Royal Palace, looking at the gilded decorations around her, feeling an overwhelming sense of unreality.

How long has it been since she stayed in The Royal Palace?

Outside, a Royal doctor was waiting for Iris to wake up. As soon as she opened the door, the doctor respectfully said, "Miss Crawford, we’ll check your wound."

Iris instinctively lifted her neck to show the wound.

The doctor was a woman, and every time she saw the wound, she couldn’t help but sigh, showing a look of heartache.

Rumor had it that Iris had deliberately walked into the knife. Although the news was kept from the public, it circulated within The Royal Palace.

Initially, people thought that Iris staying in The Royal Palace was biased, but now when they see Iris, everyone in The Royal Palace expresses a sense of admiration towards her.

There might even be a hint of respect.

"We’ll find a way for this scar..."

The female doctor comforted Iris while examining her wound, "Miss Crawford, don’t worry, we’ll do our best to repair this part of your skin..."

Iris felt dazed, and through the doctor’s face, she seemed to see Lachlan Wyatt.

He wasn’t like others, who found the wound scary when seeing the hideous scar. He was different.

He would be ecstatic, finding it beautiful, seeing it as a symbol of her revenge and victory.

Lachlan’s world seemed inverted compared to others; what others scoffed at, he treated as a norm, and even his habits and preferences diverged from everything else in the world.

You all advocate being a good person, then I will commit every wrongdoing.

You raise the moral line, I will trample on human decency.

Iris’s fingers clenched; she was so deeply affected by him that all along, she almost became a second Lachlan.

After the wound was checked, the doctor instructed some important matters, saying, "The wound is healing fast, Miss Crawford, soon the stitches can be removed."

"Thank you."

"It’s my duty."

Holding a box, the doctor left, and Iris returned to her room. At this moment, a voice came from behind, "Birdie, what you wanted done, we’ve completed it for you."

Turning around, she found the members of the agency had arrived without her knowing.

Peach looked complicated, "We’ve secured Cynthia’s citizenship in our country; henceforth, she is no longer under The Royal’s control. She’s free now."

They even changed her citizenship?

Iris was shocked, "Really? That’s great... Now my sister and Cynthia are free!"

Cynthia, the kind woman, won’t be held hostage by her family again. From now on, Skye Lockwood can openly take Cynthia back home!

Iris showed a sincere smile, "The promise to Cynthia is fulfilled."

"Now your sister and Cynthia are safe, but Birdie, what about you?"

She became the price for others’ freedom.

"Me?"

Iris’s eyelashes trembled, "I’m not that foolish to push myself into a pit. My contract with Dante has a deadline; once it’s over, I’ll be free."

"Really?"

Seraphina Colbert spoke up, eyes full of worry, "Iris, if you have anything, don’t bear it alone."

This woman was too strong-willed, with more grit than men.

But Iris just smiled; no one could enter her heart.

The members of the agency exchanged glances, each shaking their head inwardly.

In the end, paper can’t contain fire. Soon, Orion Crawford back in the country found out about Iris. By the evening, he came cursing all the way down from his private plane, looking like he was about to storm The Royal Palace and overthrow the government. Dante had sent people to greet his future brother-in-law at The Royal Palace gates, yet the brother-in-law gave no face, shoving aside several Royal Guards and directly poking Dante’s face with a finger, "You beast!!!"

Dante almost called for guards, "Mr. Crawford, you’re too anxious..."

"Marrying my sister behind my back, it’s good I don’t fight you to the death!"

Orion gritted his teeth, wanting to explode but remembering that the Crawford Family held no sway here, he suppressed it, speaking to Dante with disdain, "Where’s my sister?"

Dante smiled and made a "please" gesture, "Studying programming with Seraphina Colbert right now, probably in the study, why don’t we talk first and call them down later?"

Seraphina accompanying her? That’s not bad.

Orion nodded slightly, and the maids nearby blushed.

"Such a handsome Asian face!"

"Wonder if he’s single."

"Seems he’s the future Princess’s brother."

"No wonder, the Princess’s family has good genes!"

At that moment in the study, Iris hadn’t realized that her brother, Orion, had arrived in The Kingdom of L, nor did she know that after Orion finished discussing everything with Dante, he stood up with a serious look, and instead of seeing Iris, his first move was to change his mind and instead went to find Lachlan Wyatt.

He kicked open Lachlan’s door with a face full of murderous intent, shouting into the dark room, "Lachlan!"

Lachlan thought he was hallucinating, but as he felt his way to the wall to turn on the light, he saw it was Orion, "It’s you?"

"I caught wind and flew right over."

Orion slammed the door behind him, locking himself and Lachlan in the room.

The elder brother stared intently at Lachlan for a while, then suddenly stepped forward, grabbing Lachlan’s collar and swinging a punch towards Lachlan’s mouth!!

Lachlan didn’t dodge, bracing to take the hit; but just as the punch was about to land, Orion stopped forcefully.

Lachlan’s eyes were obscure, "Why didn’t you hit?"

"Are you trying to kill me with rage!"

Orion’s eyes were red, "Weren’t you my candidate for brother-in-law? In the blink of an eye, it turns out to be The First Prince. Are you playing me, Lachlan!"

"I wasn’t capable enough." Lachlan laughed self-deprecatingly, yet even so, his face was astonishingly beautiful, "Your sister decided to marry into The Royal Family; what could I do?"

"Have you just given up like that!"

Orion shook Lachlan’s shoulders vigorously, "Why didn’t you tell the brothers back in the country to help when such a huge thing happened? Keeping my sister’s kidnapping from me! And why just give up on Iris like that! Lachlan, you’re such a coward!"
