    Chapter 1345


    What should they do now?


    Mango and Mckenzie immediately panicked when they saw this.


    "You guys should leave first."


    Lebanon gave Mango a push as he said this.


    On the other hand, Mango was speechless.


    "Where should I go then?"


    She was unfamiliar with this ce, so she was expecting Lebanon to at least give her some


    directions.


    While they were speaking, the other party had alreadye up to Lebanon.


    "Lebanon? What brings you here? D*mn, did the two women behind you juste out of the


    garbage? They stink."


    The person who came was Prisca Argus, one of the princesses of Ango. Her mother was the


    daughter of a small family. Thus, when the family fell into crisis, the family sent her mother to be


    Laborn''s wife. After Prisca was born, her mother was immediately abandoned by Laborn. Over the


    years, the family had lived in istion and away from the public''s attention. As for Prisca, she rarely


    associated herself with anyone.


    Therefore, Lebanon was not familiar with her. He hesitated slightly as he was didn''t know what were


    her intentions.


    "How about you? Where are you going?"


    "I came out for a walk. The snowstorm has been ongoing for three days. My mom said that the


    residents might need our help outside, so I nned to go out and have a look."


    Prisca''s voice was tender and sweet. The dimples on her cheeks was rtively apparent when she


    smiled, which made her look very easygoing.


    However, Lebanon still had his guard up against people around the pce as they were often


    vicious and scheming.


    "Well, go ahead, then"


    Lebanon didn''t want to talk any longer. Then, he took Mango''s hand and was about to move


    forward, but Prisca immediately stopped him.


    "Are you heading to your mother''s ce?"


    Prisca easily guessed that they were going to Magnolia''s pce as this was the only ce that led


    to there.


    "Look, if you have anything to tell me, you can just say it directly."


    Lebanon knew that it was toote for any excuse now. If it didn''t work, he could only...


    At this thought, a cold gaze shed across Lebanon''s eyes as he was nning to kill Prisca.


    On the other hand, Prisca obviously knew what he was thinking from the look in his eyes. She


    shivered in fear and said in a low voice, "Dad is in her pce. I saw him when I passed by, so I''d


    advise you to get rid of those people behind you before going. Well, he doesn''t seem to be in a


    good mood today."


    Her words reminded Lebanon of something else.


    Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat. If Prisca was telling the truth, then bringing Mango along would


    be very dangerous. However, where else could he send Mango to?


    Hence, Lebanon was in distress right now.


    Then, Prisca looked at him and said timidly, "If you don''t mind, my pce is not far from here. Why


    don''t you take them to my ce to clean up?"


    After hearing this, Mango couldn''t help but nce at Prisca.


    Prisca looked rather innocent, and she had a sweet voice, so Mango had a good impression of her.


    However, she could see that Lebanon had no affection for his sister, who was standing in front of


    him as they were acting like strangers! Thus, ot was difficult to tell if Prisca was genuinely lending a


    helping hand or nning to harm them even more.


    Since things had taken a turn to this state, they could only go with the flow.


    At the thought of this, Mango tugged at Lebanon''s sleeve and said in a low voice, "Why don''t we go


    over first? Besides, it''s not safe to stay here anymore. If we meet one of Bernard''s men, we''ll be in


    bigger trouble!"


    Well, Mango was telling the truth.


    Lebanon thought of how Bernard was hunting him down and was concerned if Mosco could handle


    it. Then, he nced at Prisca again and pondered for a moment.


    Meanwhile, Prisca was not in a hurry as she patiently waited for him to make a decision.


    After that, Mango looked around and whispered, "Let''s go over first. Well find out her intentions after


    we go there."


    "All right."


    Lebanon had no other ideas now, so he could only look at Prisca and say, "Let''s go to your ce


    first."


    "Here,e with me. I''m sorry girls, but you smell really bad. I''ll talk to you guyster."


    Prisca was gentle and kind to them, but Mango remained cautious.


    Soon, they arrived at Prisca''s pce.


    The decoration in her ce was inferior aspared to Lebanon and Prissy''s grand pces. It was


    obvious that their family was least favoured by Laborn.


    Meanwhile, Mango closely observed the surroundings. There weren''t many guards or servants


    around, so this ce was rtively empty and deste.


    After that, Prisca led them into the pce and sent someone to serve Mango and Mckenzie. As the


    girls went to wash up, Prisca poured Lebanon a cup of hot tea and said with a smile, "Here, have


    some tea."


    "Thank you."


    Lebanon felt that she wasn''t an easy target to deal with. As he took a sip of the tea, he found that it


    was some poor quality tea.


    Meanwhile, Prisca said, "I hope you don''t mind if the tea doesn''t taste great. Our ce doesn''t have


    any support from the pce."


    "No, I won''t. However, why did you help me today?"


    Now that Mango was not around, Lebanon decided to inquire directly. As Mango''s cousin, he could


    never put her in danger. Even though Prisca looked harmless, there had to be a reason for her to


    help him. Thus, he had to think of a backup n in case anything went wrong.


    Meanwhile, Prisca remained calm. She smiled sweetly and said, "You are impatient. But forget it,


    let''s be direct. I can see that the atmosphere in the pce has been tense recently because


    everyone is fighting for the throne. However, there''s something I''m not sure if should say."


    "Just feel free to say it. Since you said it''s better for us to be direct, there''s no need to hide it."


    Lebanon said these words honestly.


    Prisca paused for a moment and continued, "Dad is still in the prime of his life, but you guys are


    already scheming to seize the throne. Isn''t that awful? Although we''re not in ancient times, I''m sure


    that those in power don''t want to step down so quickly. I know that you and our other brothers are


    fighting for the throne, but dad is still strong and healthy, and he could stay on for many years. s!


    I am afraid that everyone will get into trouble if you guys ever cross the line."


    Her words were quite sincere.


    However, Lebanon said with a sneer, "Heh! I have never been interested in that position. I even


    nned on leaving this ce previously."


    "Then why did youe back this time?" "For revenge!"


    A hint of coldness shed through his eyes.


    "Is Alfred really your true love? Although you two have always depended on each other, perhaps


    your rtionship is not what you think it is. It''s probably because you''ve never gotten close to any


    other woman, so..."


    Prisca naturally heard about what happened to Lebanon, so she was a little hesitant.


    However, Lebanon said frankly, "The rtionship between me and Alfred has long surpassed


    affection. We''re both lovers and family. We lived with each other so that we could survive, but he


    was killed by Bernard. Hence, I need to seek revenge on behalf of him!"


    "But what if Bernard didn''t kill him, but someone else did?"


    Lebanon frowned when he heard what Prisca had said.


    "Do you know something about this?"


    "I don''t know anything. I''m just guessing. Well, I''m just letting you know that our dad will not let go of


    his position as the ruler. So, you should probably forget about that."


    Upon hearing this, Lebanon sneered and said, "Hah! It''s impossible for me to stop now. Besides,


    he''s probably mad about how we desire his position badly, so he''s also on guard against here.


    If I don''t manage to seize the throne, I won''t be able to get my revenge. Hence, there''s no way I can


    back out now, Prisca."


    Lebanon knew the challenges he had to face along the way. After all, his enemies were not only his


    brothers but also his biological father, Laborn Fang.


    As Prisca said, Laborn was in his prime and would not let go of his power easily. However, Lebanon


    couldn''t wait any longer. Judging from the way Laborn shielded Bernard, there was a long way to go


    before Lebanon could seek revenge.


    After hearing Lebanon''s words, Prisca sighed softly and said, "I guess you''re determined to put


    yourself in danger."


    "Did dad sent you over to persuade me?"


    Lebanon couldn''t help but make a guess.


    However, Prisca shook her head and said, "If you are determined to snatch the position, my mother


    and I can help you."


    Lebanon was slightly stunned when he heard this.


    After all, Prisca''s mother was from the Acker family. However, the Ackers was considered a low-


    ss family in Ango. Despite their shorings, she still had the confidence to support Lebanon,


    so he was surprised.


    "The Ackers doesn''t seem to be very powerful."


    "Heh! Are you looking down on our family?"


    Although Prisca smiled sweetly, Lebanon couldn''t help but feel pressured.


    "It''s not like that. I''m doing this all alone, so what rights do I have to judge others? Is this solely your


    decision, your mom''s or the Acker''s?"


    Prisca looked at him and pondered for a while before saying, "Well, to be honest, my cousin, Tristan


    Acker, was the one who wanted to do this."


    Well, Lebanon had heard of Tristan Acker. He had heard that Tristan was the new head of the Acker


    family and was very talented in the business. He had great achievements over the years and helped


    the family to survive through the business crisis. Moreover, it was said that he was the current hope


    of the Acker family.


    However, Tristan was a low- profile person and never showed up in public. Hence, his assistants


    would attend a lot of banquets in his ce. Therefore, not many people knew how Tristan looked


    like now.


    Some people even said that he was ugly or disabled. People had different opinions, but Tristan


    never said anything about these rumours.

    Thus, Lebanon didn''t understand why Tristan was supporting him in the fight for the throne.


    "What does he want?"


    "Tristan wants the Acker family to be the biggest family in Ango."


    Prisca said cheerfully, while Lebanon was shocked upon hearing those words.


    Wow! Tristan was ambitious indeed!


    "What if I fail then?"


    "Nah, you won''t fail with his help."


    Lebanon was surprised by her confidence.


    "Why didn''t you choose to support Lexis instead? They''re more powerful than me and has a good


    rtionship with the elders. If you choose him, you''d have a better chance of winning. Why me?"


    Well, Lebanon wasn''t that foolish as he had been able to make it this far all by himself. Even though


    Magnolia would support him at times, he still had to depend on himself. Now that the Acker family


    had shown such a will, Lebanon couldn''t help but think carefully about this.


    Then, Prisca continued with a smile, "Tristan will let you know the reasonter. Anyway, you and my


    cousin are destined to work together."


    After hearing this, Lebanon was confused as he didn''t know what was going on.
