Lucas said, "I asked Eva to protect Edward, your highness. She just did as what I said. I didn't expect
her to be used by someone who wanted to hurt you. Eva has always been doing her best by my side. I
really appreciate the excellent bodyguards of your royal family. I hope she can recover as soon as
possible and continue to do her duty by my side. " As an outsider, his explanation was more convincing
than Edward.
The queen kept silent for a while and said to Prince Edward, "Your Highness, you must be astonished
by what happened today. I will order them to severely punish those who incite the wrong and give fair
play to your highness." She turned to Lucas, "as for Eva, the safety bureau will recover her work as
soon as possible. Mr. Lucas, please rest assured."
The imperial edict seemed to have carried out smoothly. The only one that was displeased in the
parliament hall was Princess Daisy.
After Edward and Lucas left, the queen turned around to face Daisy and said, "are you satisfied with
what I have done?"
"Mother!" Surprised, Daisy lowered her head with guilt. The mother knew her daughter so well. How
could her small tricks be hidden from the queen's wise eyes?
"It's not going to change anything about the marriage. You must put the interests of the whole into the
first place." The queen said in a firm tone. Biting her lower lip hard, Daisy stood up and ran out of the
hall in a rage.
She was like an injured reindeer that never stopped in the wind. She ran forward regardless of
everything, until she saw the tall figure of the man in front of her.
"Mr. Lucas." She called him in a low voice, out of breath.
Lucas stopped and turned around. When he saw her sweating, he was slightly surprised. "Anything
else, your highness?"
"Can I ask you something?" Daisy raised her head and looked at him.
"Go ahead, your highness."
"Mr. Lucas, you seem to be quite fond of Eva, aren't you?" Her tone was sour, as if she had just drunk
a lemon tea. She had kept it in her heart for a long time. When she had been in Provence, she had a
vague feeling that something was wrong between Eva and him. Now she had to ask clearly in order to
make a right decision for her future.
"Your Highness, you misunderstood me. I was just telling the truth." Lucas explained.
"We have so many royal guards in H Country. Why do you insist on Eva?" Daisy kept asking.
"Because I only know Eva. I don't like strangers around me." He said unhurriedly, "I'm sorry that I made
a rude request to transfer Eva to me without your permission. Please forgive me!"
"I didn't mean that." Daisy bit her lips. It seemed that Lucas had misunderstood her, but she could not
speak out her thoughts to him. She frowned, and her heart was suffering from a strong contradiction.
She didn't know that he said that deliberately to stop her. He had to maintain the relationship with her,
neither too far nor too close, otherwise it would have a huge impact on the cooperation plan.
Just as they were talking, the prince was not far away, with a pair of deep and unpredictable silver
green eyes staring at them deeply. From the corner of his eye, Lucas turned to him and nodded slightly
to him. Seeing him, Daisy had no choice but to turn back to the palace.
***
The secluded villa was as dead silent as the hell. It was so quiet that even when she talked, Eva felt
angry.
Especially when night came, a person curled up on the sofa alone, even the light was desolate.
The wind blew in from the slightly opened window.
The wind was as cold as late autumn.
The bright moon hung by the window.
The moonlight was as cold as ice.
She looked at the bright moon, but her eyes were dim.
Somehow, she thought of the person she hated.
Just like a passionate fairy, he accompanied her to watch TV, to offer her his arms as a pillow, to
prepare her delicious brown sugar water, to hold her in his arms when the thunder came, and to ease
her lightning fear. She should have hated it, but why was she so peaceful to sleep in his arms? She
wanted to run away from his arms, but after she got rid of him, her heart was like being hollowed out. It
was terrible?
She kept asking the reason in her heart for countless times, but she couldn't get the answer.
At last, she looked out of the window helplessly. There was neither sky nor moon outside. Her problem
was unsolved!
She tossed and turned all night, unable to fall asleep. Her messy thoughts together with the long night
slowly passed as time went by.
The next day, Helena called and she was reinstated. The magazine that reported the gossip also
published an apology.
She finally suffered a great injustice and did not die like a think. She just did not expect that she should
still go back to the side of Lucas. She asked Helena for a transfer, but she told her that the storm had
just subsided and it was the best choice to stay with Lucas. A sudden divorce was likely to cause
trouble.
At the thought of being hunted down by the public, she realized that she had no choice but to endure
humiliation and sought consent for it.
When they got back to the villa, Lucas had hardly taken a look at her, let alone talking to her. His
silence was like a stone, as cold as an ice, and as indifferent as a stove without fire.
In addition, he did not allow her to follow him when he went out. He left her alone in the villa. He just
brought Tina and Jerry As soon as he came back at night, he closed the door of his study and did not
show up again, as if she was an eyesore.
