Chapter 465 Improper Thoughts
"Your majesty... I also think that Baron Cain should also be a suspect.
Your majesty... that man is too sneaky!
Even though he has never done anything wrong, something about the way he moves doesn't add up." Said another knight.
Alec couldn't agree more, as he knew first hand how slippery Cain was.
They continued tallying up their suspects, until they had 11 names jotted down.
Since Alec would have to think of how he wanted the suspects tackled before giving his men assignments... he quickly closed all talks about his assault within the western regions and focused on Baymard instead.
It was time to plan his attack on that unfilial son of his.
But before that, he had to upgrade his weapons, before taking down Landon.
"Call all the Royal blacksmiths and weapon masters immediately.
I want a shield that can protect one against that lightning thingy that those Baymardians use!"
"Yes, your majesty!"
With that, everyone immediately dispersed, leaving a happy Alec in the room.
After getting shocked silly by that small black thing that produces lightning... Alec was very pleased with himself for coming up with a shield that could protect the knights against that type of attack, when they begin war with Baymard.
Hehehehe.... with his massive army, how could those Baymardians even stand a chance?
.
And just Like that, Alec had successfully made it to the palace in one piece.
The news of how he returned had already spread throughout the Capital to the prominent families.
Hence many people planned to bring him gifts and whatnot.
As for his daughter, Cary who had just returned from her own trip to Baymard a week ago.... even though she knew that seeing her father now would get her in his good graces, there was something way more important for her to do today.
.
--The Benevolent Princess Estate, Capital Of Arcadina--
.
Cary looked at the note in her hand and smiled stupidly.
It was a note from Anthony!
Her entire heart twinkled with love, as she held the note dearly.
She envisioned how tonight would be, as she had planned to kiss her baby to stupor.
Even though it's been 2 years since that b**ch sister of hers died, she and Anthony still couldn't make their relationship public yet..... as Anthony was Janette's fiance at one point.
For many, 2 years was still a short time for mourning, so how could she just publicly say that Anthony was her beloved?
People might even suspect her for killing her sister instead?
Others might also speculate that Anthony had been cheating on Jenette with herself.... when Jenette was still alive.
No matter what, it was definitely wise for them to keep their relationship under wraps.
Hence they had only been meeting outside in places that one wouldn't expect royalty or nobility to be in.
Cary giggled and read the letter again in her bedroom chamber, while rolling on the bed playfully.
Right now, she was currently in her own estate that was given to her by Alec... so she could do whatever she wanted without fear of her stepmothers or their spies listening in on her.
Cary held the letter in her hand and smiled lovingly.
Tonight, she would be with her beloved again after so long.
.
"Mo!"
"Yes, my princess!"
"Quickly!
Get that red gown that I brought from Baymard.... as well as the black coat with silver buttons too.
And get out that Bx-42 Lipstick in the shade Rouge out!
Now go!!!!!"
"Yes, my princess!"
With that, one of the maids quickly left the room, to go into Cary's closet room.
"Zana!"
"Yes, my princess!"
"Get that expensive cherry-scented soap, as well as the shampoo, conditioner and hair oil there.
I want my body to glow and shine when I step out today."
"Yes, my princess."
With that, many of the maids hurriedly stepped forward to strip Cary down naked... while others hurriedly ran towards the royal bathhouse, to prepare the water for bathing and so on.
They couldn't help but wonder why their princess was so happy today.
On top of that, did the princess want to dress this way for her father who had just arrived?
Did his majesty bring a suitor for princess Jenette?
If not.... then why was the princess wearing such a stunning outfit just to see her father?
Eh?
Is the princess having an affair with her father, his majesty Alec Barn?
.
The maids hastily did their jobs, while having several ridiculous thoughts in their minds.
Since they didn't know about Jenette's plans to see Anthony in secret, they could only be left in the dark with their outrageous thoughts.
Many of them quickly shook out the thoughts from their minds, whether or not the princess was having an affair with his majesty alec... how was that their business?
Seeing how suspicious the whole thing was, they decided to keep their mouths shut instead.
At least even though the situation seemed indecent, it seemed to bring the princess some sort of joy.
Ever since the princess had come back from Baymard, she gat been getting more annoyed with everything.
She seemed to hate the fire torches, as well as the act that her bath water came directly from the stream.
She wanted the water to flow out from within the bath as if it were magic..... and she also wanted something called a fridge?
In short, ever since the princess had arrived... she seemed to grumble about everything in her estate more.
She wanted to estate roads to be redone with something called sidewalks... and wanted the gardens and fields to have water squirting out from them which she called a Fountain.
The princess also seemed to want to take up sword fighting too.
It seemed like she had experienced some sort of gruesome experience in Baymard for her to train so hard.
Every time she trained, she would stab the dummy and yell out the name 'Landon' or 'bastard'.
It has only been a week since their princess had begun practice... And so far, the princess was extremely angry with all the trainers that she had hired.
She wanted to be a pro within a day, but she had forgotten that she had to start from the bottom and make herself powerful with time.
Of course, all of this made the princess frustrated.
And in the end, she would take it out on the maids.
So now that they saw her happy, how could they not be happy as well?
At least they wouldn't be used as punching bags anymore.
With these thoughts in mind, the maids did their best to make Cary as gorgeous looking as possible.
And after that, Cary secretly left with a few of her guards in a peasant wagon.
Now... it was time for her to see her beloved.
.
At the same time, after Cary's wagon left her estate... someone lurking deep within the shadows smiled coldly.
'B**tch!
I'll let you know what pain is..... hehehehehe'
