"Add that bitch Evane as well."
Raguel spoke with an evil smile on his face.
If he was going to eliminate the competition, he was going to do it thoroughly.
Gibson glanced at this Grandson of his and frowned.
"Why Evane?"
He questioned.
Hearing that question, a solemn look appeared on Raguel's face and he replied,
"Her sudden return is too suspicious, she says that she doesn't want the Throne, however, I still don't trust her."
"She can be the contender for the throne with her cultivation."
Gibson nodded.
"However, if we kill her as well, then people might get suspicious of you."
A cold smile appeared on Raguel's face,
"It doesn't matter if they get suspicious of me. As long as they don't have enough proof, no one can do anything. Not even the Dowager."
Hearing those words, a disdainful smile appeared on Gibson's face.
"Heh. You are Ricardus's son indeed."
"Indeed.:
Thornton nodded with a similar smile on his face as well.
"Huh? What do you mean?"
Raguel questioned with a frown on his face.
"Nothing. Forget about it, we have more important issues to talk about."
Gibson shook his head.
This wasn't something important right now.
Right now, they needed a plan.
"We can't send 3 separate Units to deal with 3 different people. 2 is already stretching it."
Gibson spoke.
"How about we attack when Lovis and Evane are together?"
Raguel presented an Idea.
"That's not bad, but how will we know when the two of them will be together?"
Thornton questioned.
"Don't worry, I have a perfect way to arrange that."
Raguel smiled.
"Oh? Do share."
Gibson spoke with a curious look on his face.
Raguel smiled evilly and explained his plan,
"We will…"
The planning continued and the more they thought about it, the more confident they felt.
Raguel's path to the Throne will soon be clean and clear.
…
"Master Lovis."
Two days later, Leo, Lovis's butler walked into Lovis's room with a letter in his hand.
"Hmm? What is it, Leo?"
Lovis who had just come out of his Cultivation Chamber questioned.
"I believe you should see what it is."
Leo spoke while passing an envelope to Lovis.
Lovis frowned and took the envelope. He noticed that this letter was sent by Evane and seeing that, his frown deepened.
"Why is that bitch contacting me through a letter? Doesn't she know how risky it is?"
Lovis couldn't understand, however, he didn't have any other option.
He opened the letter and his frown deepened even further.
'If you want Duke Vestalis's support, come to my room at 1 in the morning. Of course, do it is secrecy.'
That was it.
There was nothing else written on the letter, no greeting, no name of the sender. However, with the stamp on the envelope and the letter, it was clear who the sender was.
"Why is she calling me so late in the night?"
Lovis couldn't understand.
"And what's with this threatening letter?"
The letter's meaning was clear, if you don't come, don't expect my Support from now on.
A clear threat.
Something Lovis never thought Evane would do.
However, after thinking about it, a smile appeared on Lovis's face.
"She's finally going to reveal her true face, huh."
He muttered.
He was getting tired from playing this idiotic game. He tried a lot in these 2 days, however, he couldn't find anything out of ordinary about Evane.
Her life was so normal that he felt like someone was deliberately leading him to false information.
He had to admit.
Evane was indeed capable.
He realized that she was the actual threat to him, not Raguel.
Raguel was just an arrogant nobody after all.
"Alright Dear Sister, now that you have decided to come out of your shell, it is time for us to clash directly."
A cold smile appeared on Lovis's face and he desperately waited for the sun to go down.
…
Lovis didn't have to wait for too long, the time passed by fairly quickly and in the middle of the night, he walked out of his room while covering his body with a black shawl.
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
He knocked on Evane's door.
"…"
However, nobody answered.
Lovis frowned and knocked again.
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
Lovis knocked again.
"…"
But again, no one answered.
Annoyed, Lovis was about to answer, however, soon, she heard a hurried voice.
"Wait, I am coming."
Lovis paused and waited.
2 minutes later, Evane opened the door, and seeing her face, Lovis frowned.
Her face was a little red, her upper forehead and the region near her ears were wet, signifying that she has just wiped the sweat off her face, the dress she wore looked a little disorganized as well, signifying that she has worn it in hurry,
Seeing all this, Lovis couldn't understand,
"Wh-"
"Why are you here?"
Before Lovis could ask anything, Evane questioned.
"Is something bothering you? Are you okay? It is very unlike you to come here in the middle of the night. And what's with the Shawl? Are you hiding something?"
Evane continued to question with a worried look on her face.
Hearing all those questions, Lovis tilted his head in confusion.
Wasn't she the one who called him?
Why is she acting like this right now?
He couldn't understand.
Seeing that he wasn't answering, Evane frowned, her worry deepened, and then she pulled him into her room.
"Come inside first. Standing here will make us suspicious."
Lovis was pulled inside, there, he could smell a faint, funny smell, however, before he could point it out, his eyes fell on another person.
"Why are you here?"
He questioned.
"I am her bodyguard, of course, I would be here. Else people like you might try to harm her."
Nux replied with an annoyed look on his face.
Lovis shook his head.
Talking to a servant was not worth it, he just turned towards Evane and spoke bluntly.
"Sister, I need to sleep, so I would appreciate it if you don't play any games with me."
"Games?"
Evane frowned.
Seeing that she was hellbent on acting like that, Lovis just threw the letter at her.
"Here, you were the one who called me here, aren't you? It even has your stamp on it. Now tell me, why did you call me here?"
Evane frowned, she quickly grabbed the letter, and soon, a solemn look appeared on her face.
"Lovis… I did not send this letter.
This Stamp is fake…"
