"Since we’ve already rested, we should do something meaningful," his seductive voice echoed as he leaned in and captured her lips, dominantly prying open her lips and teeth. She bit him in shame and anger, causing him to pull back in pain. Yet, he immediately bit her lip, while his tongue invaded deeply, eliciting a shivering thrill from her.

After the kiss, she almost collapsed from exhaustion.

"Let you go, rest well, then come find me," he ordered before leaving, leaving her alone, blushing.

The cruise ship was still sailing on the sea. Alexander Kingsley went to the banquet hall and called Lucas Knight to report. It was Harry North who answered the call, and the gist was that the Crown Prince had been acting differently lately, and Harry seemed to inadvertently reveal something:

"Admiral, recently, a woman has appeared by the Crown Prince’s side, and she’s exactly like Miss Eva Nightingale from back in the day."

"The Crown Prince favored her, even asked me to investigate her identity. However, her information shows she is indeed the future Lady of Eastern Europe, the future leader of the entire Bennett Clan. From her birth to her current 23-year-old timeline, there’s no connection with the Sovereign Empire..."

The implication was that the Eva Nightingale found by Harry was not the same Eva Nightingale from the past.

Who knew how deeply Lucas Knight’s gaze darkened at that moment; he straightforwardly imprisoned her. For three years, Lucas Knight had never been this extreme.

"Harry, have you had too much to drink?" Alexander evidently didn’t believe it, he couldn’t believe this matter.

There are no two identical leaves in the world, nor are there two identical people. Just like Harry described, this woman and the triumphant Eva Nightingale from back then are exactly alike, and both have met the big Boss?

The odds of that.

Alexander joked, "Harry, lost a big gamble?"

"Admiral!!" Harry was already the most sincere, "Admiral, I’m serious, how could I dare lie to you? I, Harry North, swear to heaven, if I lie to you, I’ll... I’ll never be able to get it up again. I curse myself..."

Harry, the incredibly devout sorcerer, hadn’t finished speaking before Alexander interrupted, "Alright, alright, I believe you."

Harry was one in a million, a super special forces elite, with professional integrity extremely high, and he was raised by the Knight Family patriarch from a young age. Hence, his relationship with Lucas Knight was incredibly strong, moreover Harry’s life now was given by the Crown Prince, of course, everything he did was for the Boss’s benefit.

Due to days of entanglement, Harry had no choice, hiding secrets in his heart, feeling troubled!

He could only call Alexander and seemed to confide. Because usually, Alexander had the best relationship with Lucas Knight, so Harry hoped Alexander might have a way to persuade his own master.

After all, it’s been three years, it’s better if he can’t remember, but now he’s imprisoned the young mistress of the Bennett Clan, who is the Bennett Organization’s beloved.

Seeing as it’s been a month or two, Eastern Europe’s people surely have tracked Eva Nightingale, and will definitely take action!

If it causes unnecessary trouble, Eastern Europe and the Sovereign Empire come to blows, it will definitely not be fun...

"Bennett," this Mafia force, nobody ever knows how powerful it is, only hears that their style is decisive and ruthless, they absolutely act without unnecessary chatter. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Harry also had no choice, calling Alexander, and continued, "Admiral, you also know, Bennett has been rampant in Eastern Europe for decades, even centuries, and already formed a massive dark force, already becoming a Dark Kingdom."
