    Chapter 1137 Albert’s Motives


    Christoff red at Olivia and took a seat opposite her. "I have a feeling that the man is an important


    figure in Eurosia, which exins the guns they have."


    "I understand."


    "I was told that the Queen of Eurosia must own the ne, which is an heirloom, to ensure her


    position. Do you think they''re looking for the same ne?"


    Olivia panicked at his words, and she immediately denied the im, "That''s impossible! The current


    Queen''s reign hasn''t ended. Why would they look for the ne at this point?"


    Her denial convinced him, so he agreed with her, "You''re right. However, they''re making quite a fuss


    over it if they''re searching for a normal ne."


    I can''t let him dwell on this matter!


    Olivia tried to change the topic. "Enough about this talk. Stop worrying. It''s their national affair. Don''t tell


    me you covet the Queen''s throne."


    He sneered at her joke. "No thanks. And I would like to stay as a male for now."


    Meanwhile, Albert got in the car.


    River could no longer contain his confusion. "Sir, why did you tell her the truth? The Queen asked us to


    make a secret investigation."


    Albert exined, "I have a feeling that the woman had the ne, but she won''t give it to us if we


    don''t show sincerity."


    River eximed, "That''s easy! We know her father! We can kidnap him and force her to give us the


    ne."


    Albert watched River with a stern look. "Your hot temper won''t do you good in this mission, you know? I


    wish everything could be resolved that easily."


    River prompted, "Are you worrying about something?"


    Hugh in the back seat chimed in, "He should be. What if she deceives us with a counterfeit?"


    Albert added, "She looks like she knows something, which exins the questions she asked."


    River asked, "What are we supposed to do now? Since she said it was lost, she probably won''t give it


    to us. We can''t possibly sit around and wait for something to happen."


    At that, his eyes shone in excitement. "We can steal it! Since you''ve found her lying about the


    ne, it means she still has it. We can ask somebody to rob her house. They can find the ne


    there."


    Albert shot daggers at River. "Enough talk. I''m ashamed to hear you speak. Get the car going."


    River stuck out his tongue. "You and your principles... Then how are we supposed to retrieve the


    ne? It''s been two months since we left Eurosia, and we''ve made no progress so far."


    Albertforted him, "It can''t be helped. For now, what matters the most is to gain her favors."


    "Sir, are you sure she has the ne we want?"


    Albert exined, "All I know is she didn''t tell us the truth just now. There are two possibilities for her


    lies. First, she didn''t want anything to do with us, so she tried to turn us away. However, she had many


    questions, which means she wanted to learn more about our background. Thus, it leads to thest


    possibility, which is that she lied due to ack of trust in us or she''s holding back her opinion before she


    learns our motives."


    "Maybe she''s just curious?"


    "But she immediately thought about Eurosia when she learned my surname. It''s not a coincidence.


    She''s testing us. She''s either a knowledgeable woman or familiar with Eurosia."


    River hesitated. "So, we''re going to waste our time and energy on her? Are you sure it''s worth it?"


    Albert soothed him, "In the meantime, you''ll carry on the secret investigation. We''re taking a two-track


    approach."


    River studied Albert''s expression from the rear-view mirror. "Sir, are you sure it''s not because she''s a


    pretty woman, and you fell in love with her at first sight?"


    Albert denied the im. "That''s ridiculous. However, having a friend as beautiful as her is not bad."


    ...


    At night, Eugene brought the children home and found Olivia in the living room. He smiled at her.


    "You''re early."


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    She hummed a response and exined, "I need North''s help to look up a man."


    Her statement took him aback. "Who is it?"


    "Here." At that, she took out the business card from her purse and showed it to him.


    He nced at the card before asking, "Albert Bleu? Who is this guy?"


    Seeing no point in hiding the truth from him, she told him what happened this afternoon.
