"Go. Just go."
Phoenix was somewhat irritated.
Helen was stunned for a moment. She looked up and saw the despair and loneliness in Phoenix's
eyes. She couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.
After consideration, Helen found Phoenix was nice to her. However, Phoenix was reserved and didn't
like to talk. A woman as Phoenix was, she had been spying on the palace all these years. What she did
terrify Helen.
But, she was actually nice to Helen.
When Helen was sick, Phoenix never asked Helen serve her. She even called doctors over to treat
Helen's illness.
In the palace, if a maid was sick, she could not see a doctor. She could only leave the palace after
work. However, these personal maids had to work all the time and could not leave the palace.
Therefore, they always prepared all kinds of medicines to prevent unexpected emergencies. However,
with Phoenix around, she had never been worried about these things.
Helen and her younger brother were from a poor family. Because Helen was Phoenix's maid, her
younger brother had the opportunity to attend a noble school. Moreover, Phoenix had been subsidizing
him for all these years, and she was concerned about Helen's younger brother's study. Although
sometimes Phoenix was fierce, Helen thought found that Phoenix was quite kind.
But Phoenix was a princess, so she had no choice but to face everything coldly.
After Helen came around, she said hurriedly, "I'm not leaving. I'm your maid. I'll be with you forever.
Princess, don't drive me away. I don't know where I can go or what else I can do after leaving you."
However, Phoenix misunderstood Helen, thinking that Helen refused to leave for her younger brother's
future. So, she said, "Your younger brother staying in the palace isn't necessarily a good thing. Now
that the palace is in chaos. No one knows what will happen, but I can tell you that there will definitely
be a major change in the palace, and many people may die. The transfer of the regime means large
numbers of deaths. If your younger brother is on the wrong side, I might not be able to protect him. So,
you should ask him to come out temporarily. He can return after the new regime stabilizes. I don't care
about being a princess. If you follow me, there's no promising future. Why don't you leave now? I'll give
you a sum of money. With your ability, it's enough to support yourself."
This was Helen's best way out that Phoenix had come up.
No matter what, Helen had worked for her for so many years. Phoenix hoped that Helen could live a
good life.
Hearing what Phoenix said, Helen felt that Phoenix was kind.
Helen quickly knelt and said, "Princess, I'm not leaving. I will serve you forever. As long as my brother
is safe, I'm willing to be at your service."
Phoenix was somewhat surprised.
She used not to think Helen was loyal, but now, it seemed that Helen had feelings for her. However,
due to many years of court life, she didn't dare to believe Helen easily.
"Alright. Then stay if you don't want to leave. The Sawyer family can provide for you."
The moment she remembered that she was under control, Phoenix was in a rather bad mood.
"Princess, you ..."
"Alright, leave me alone. Which room does Mr. Green and Nicole live in?"
Phoenix was somewhat irritated.
"It's the first room on the left, but they haven't gotten up yet. Booth has been standing at the door of the
operating room. After Davon returned to his room, Booth keeps staying with Karina."
Upon hearing what Helen said, Phoenix paused slightly.
She was a little interested in that girl around Booth.
It was said that she was only thirteen years old.
The fact that a 13-year-old child could sneak into the palace quietly surprised her. Even her people did
not notice that girl's entering, which was enough to show that girl was something!
She was thirteen years old!
Now that she had been so powerful, she had a bright future. If there was no organization behind her,
Phoenix would not believe it.
However, Phoenix didn't know this organization would harm Samuel or Nicole. She felt that it was a
hidden danger.
Phoenix's duty was to protect Samuel from being hurt, so it was better to investigate someone
unknown like Karina as soon as possible.
"I'll go check."
After saying that, Phoenix walked towards Karina's room.
Booth did not close the door. Karina fell asleep after the operation. Booth was looking at the sleeping
Karina with gentle eyes.
He gently held Karina's hand, not sleepy at all even after a night of sleeplessness.
What had Karina experienced during this period? Booth really wanted to know it, but Karina couldn't
say anything. It was unknown she was deliberately hiding it or she didn't know anything.
Booth didn't think that anyone would put in a lot of effort to nurture a group of people and then abandon
them.
Either that organization hadn't given them orders, or they had other motives. Booth worked for Nicole.
Karina suddenly appeared like this. Although Booth was happy, he frowned when he thought of some
hidden dangers.
If Karina woke up and the operation was successful, he should probably take her away.
He was of no help to Samuel and Nicole here. On the contrary, keeping Karina with him was likely to
bring them danger. Since this was the case, it was better to leave
He didn't want the person he liked to hurt Nicole.
Thinking of this, Booth made his decision. Phoenix walked in.
"What exactly is her identity?"
Phoenix knew that Booth was Nicole's person, so she naturally didn't beat around the bush.
Booth was slightly stunned. Turning around, he saw Phoenix leaning against the door. Her casual look
carried a trace of laziness and nobility. He couldn't help but pause for a moment before saying, "She's
my people."
"Your people? Did you teach her skills?"
"No."
Booth frowned.
He knew that Phoenix was Samuel's man. Now she suspected Karina, so she came to ask.
Booth wasn't annoyed at all. Even he suspected Karina, no wonder that Phoenix would do the same.
"I know that you have resources. If possible, help me find out who took Karina away and who trained
her during this period. The resources in my hands are limited to the business circle. I can't deal with
other areas, especially some hidden organizations. I know you can."
Booth's frankness made Phoenix less aggressive.
"I've never seen how good she is. But it's not a good sign that she could enter the palace quietly and
escaped the notice of my men. I'll ask the Silver Fox of the Sky Group to investigate. Can you give me
some information about her?"
"Yes."
Booth quickly recounted something about Karina.
After Phoenix heard, she felt a trace of sympathy and admiration for Karina.
"She is a good child. I hope that she will not be led astray by bad people."
"No, she won't. I won't allow it."
Booth's eyes twinkled.
Phoenix instantly understood something.
"You like her? She's just a child!"
"I will wait for her to grow up."
Booth smiled.
Phoenix was a little surprised. She whispered, "If she grows up and meets someone else she likes,
what will you do?"
Booth was slightly astonished.
Karina would meet someone else she liked?
He didn't seem to have thought about it.
But now that Phoenix had asked, Booth thought for a moment before saying, "I will wish her a happy
marriage as his brother."
Phoenix did not expect Booth to say this, so she couldn't help but ask, "Are you willing to take such a
result? After you guard her for so long, she falls in love with someone else. Will you feel sad?"
"I won't feel sad but heartbroken. But I'll give what she wants to her, and I'll give her the best. Love
doesn't necessarily mean possession. Even if I wish I could keep her around for the rest of my life, she
is a human being, an independent individual. She has her thoughts and feelings. If she doesn't choose
me, it means that I'm not good enough to convince her she will be happy after marrying me. Then how
can I force her to stay with me? I want her to be happy and I'm willing to do whatever she wants. This is
the person I like."
Booth's remark deeply moved Phoenix.
Booth was a real man and a real gentleman!
On the contrary, Davon was despicable and shameless!
"Talk to Davon when you're free."
"What?"
Booth was a little surprised, but Phoenix turned around and left. Neither of them saw Karina's fingers
and eyes moved. Then everything calmed down.
When Phoenix came out, she met Nicole.
"You're up early enough."
"I come to see Karina. Did the operation succeed?"
Nicole didn't sleep well last night. If Samuel hadn't been with her, she would have come long ago. Now
that she saw Phoenix coming out, she couldn't help but ask.
"I think it did. Although Davon isn't good-natured, he is a reliable doctor. Otherwise, my father wouldn't
curry favor with him. He has just returned to his room to rest. He must be tired after working all night."
Phoenix did not know the relationship between Davon and Nicole, so she evaluated Davon without
scruple.
Nicole sensed something sensitively.
"You and him ..."
"I have nothing to do with him! Even if I do, I must be forced to do it!"
After Phoenix finished speaking, she turned around and left. The angry look on her face interested
Nicole.
Phoenix had always been casual and noble. Other than Samuel, no one else seemed to be able to
affect her emotions. However, as she talked about Davon, she looked as if she wanted to bite him to
death.
Besides, Nicole was not very clear about what Phoenix and Davon had done in the lounge of the
palace. Now that she heard Phoenix say this, her mind wondered.
Davon forced Phoenix?
Did Davon have sex with Phoenix?
Didn't that mean that Phoenix would become Nicole's sister-in-law?
Thinking of it, Nicole instantly became happy.
That was good.
If Phoenix became Nicole's sister-in-law, Samuel would be safe.
Although Nicole liked Phoenix, she would feel jealous if Phoenix had designs on Samuel.
Just as Nicole was thinking, Samuel walked over and happened to meet Phoenix. However, Phoenix
grabbed his arm and pulled him to the backyard.
Nicole's face instantly turned gloomy.
