Chapter 695 - Keeping a Good Royal Resume
Hader was really going on and on about this matter for Lucy's own good.
He was 38 years old and had been taking care of Lucy from the moment Landon ordered for Lucy to have private bodyguards years back.
It was almost as if he had raised Lucy too, so he sometimes treated her like a child.
She was just too innocent and could easily be fooled by others.
Additionally, just because she didn't want to 'burden' them, she always kept troubling matters to herself.
But what was the point to that if it would only get her into more trouble?
If Landon hadn't told them about her family, they wouldn't have been extra careful about the matter.
If one was going out on a mission, depending on the mission difficulty, one would assess their weapons and gadgets based on that.
In that way, they would know what to bring during the mission.
Whether they had to climb Rick's, blow things up or silently do things assassin style.
Mission difficulty was a must for them.
If they hadn't hidden and prepared everything in advance, Lucy would've made even more trouble for herself.
Sure, the inspectors might be able to aid her in winning the case.
But the moment things went to court, it would be a public matter.
And so far, no one had taken any royal to court, and they intended to keep it that way.
.
Lucy listened to Hader helplessly.
She had definitely learned her lesson this time.
But honestly speaking, Hader reminded her of an old whining man.
She couldn't help but chuckle a bit when she listened to grandpa Hader here.
She was truly blessed.
Well, as for the hard evidence... Yup!
They had recorded everything.
And as far as she knew, the recording was still going on.
What surprised her was that hidden underneath the table and even disguised around the flowers were several microphones.
So everything was being picked up by the many hidden cameras that captured them at different angles.
Hader told her that it would take 3 days for the royal security team to put the tap and everything else together, forming it into a Cassette for viewing.
This wasn't a movie that needed them to rehearse and take several shots or make drastic changes.
This was just a recording that needed to be put together.
And with the team placing all hands on deck on this matter, in 3 days they would produce the finished product.
So all she could do was wait.
But while the wait was on, it was important for her to show a defeated look in order to make the enemy feel like things were going their way.
Hader had reminded her of the matter and had even made plans to contact the Gustav family within these 3 days to make things seem more realistic.
They even planned on sending money to them, so that they could see their sincerity.
Playing the enemy was a big part of winning the bottle.
Because even though they knew that they would win, if the enemy felt it... they might do something that would become a public matter.
And that wasn't something that they wanted.
If that happened, Lucy's head secretary... who was Hader's wife would kill him, as she handled a Public Relations (P.R) matters involving Lucy.
She was like a P.R agent who also made sure that Lucy had an outstanding image in the public eye.
So if the Gustav family smelt defeat, then might put a stain on Lucy's good resume.
Therefore, it was better to play the enemy and keep this matter private until they won effortlessly.
.
The Gustav family looked at Lucy's nervous expressions and tried to hold in their arrogant expressions while leaving the palace.
Of course, Mother Kim and Landon also showed their disappointed expressions as well.
And when they received word that the Gustav family was out of the palace, they all burst out in laughter.
"Mother, you were awesome!" Lucy said while giving Mother Kim two thumbs up.
"Mom, do you know that you could win an Oscar for your performance?"
"You little brat!
Are you insulting your mother?"
"No! No! No! No!
You are the honourable queen mother of Baymard.
So how could I dare?"
"Hmph!
These shameless people dared to lie against a girl who I had practically raised till now.
So why shouldn't I play with them a bit before trampling on them later on?
Served them tight for treating my baby Lucy like that.
On top of that, they had the guts to lie to my face with no fear at all.
How could someone lie like that without even blinking?
Their skills are truly legendary!"
"Hmhm... and 3 days from now, we will show them what happens when one plots against us," Landon said coldly.
He hadn't shown it before, but he was truly mad when he watched everything go down from the system's monitors.
They dared to make his princess kneel?
Heh... they were simply looking for death!
And so while the Baymardian royals made plans, the Gustav's on the other hand seemed to be in ecstasy.
"Hahahhahahahaha!
I can't believe we did it!
We actually disgraced that tramp in front of queen mother Kimberly and his majesty Landon Barn!"
"Yeah!
Did you see the disappointed looks on their faces?
By now, they should still be lashing out on her harshly."
"Hahahhahahaa!!
She's probably crying like she used to do.
Tsk!
What a fool!"
"Hmph!
She deserves it!
Who told her to go against father?
If she had just agreed to our requests and stayed out of it, then we would have been a royal for a little bit longer.
But because she just wants to have his majesty Landon all to herself, this is the result that she will get!"
"Screw her!
Even if she was willing to share, I wouldn't want to share such a handsome and nobleman as his majesty Landon with that disease infected chicken.
Wouldn't that be an insult to my future royal self?"
"Debbie!
I've told you many times, his majesty Landon is mine.
So go find another wealthy bank to cash in!"
"In your dreams!
Just relying on your skinny arms that look like twigs and those pimples on your chest that you call b.r.e.a.s.ts... Do you think that they would be enough to attract such a man like his majesty Landon?
Your body can only attract a beggar.
You need more meat!"
"_"
And so the ladies began wrestling for Landon, while their family did their best to separate these WWE wrestlers.
But who won the fight before the family separated them?
Well, that was a story for another day.
All in all, the Gustav family was looking forward to the 3rd day.
Royalty, here they came.!
