    Chapter 1452 This Is Eugene’s Deliberate Retaliation


    Alice spoke up, "Is there anything else you want to argue about now? Why don''t you exin the


    content of this recording, Beatrix?"


    Beatrix stumbled, looking defeated. It was over.


    Those words were all hers. How could she exin?!


    D*mn Eugene, how did he manage to record it secretly? No wonder he always had his hands in his


    pockets and showed more patience toward me. He was waiting for this moment, wasn''t he? And to


    think that I had foolishly thought my offers swayed him.


    She had naively believed that this man, no matter how unruly, could not escape her grasp. This was


    damnation! She had willingly said those words one by one.


    What was she to do now?


    She looked at Lucian in bewilderment.


    He, too, was in distress. He had anticipated that Beatrix would say some shocking things, but he never


    expected Eugene to trap his foolish daughter so ruthlessly.


    She confessed to everything.


    He struggled to control his urge to erupt as his mind raced. He couldn''t just admit defeat like this and


    couldn''t let Alice suppress him.


    So, he sighed, gave Beatrix an exasperated re, and said, "My foolish daughter, I''ve said it before:


    love is something that can''t be forced. Have you finally seen his true colors this time?"


    Then, he looked at Alice and continued, "Your sister fell in love with Eugene. She was worried that


    Olivia would drag him down, so she went to see him that day. She did it to save Eugene, to get him


    away from Olivia. She intentionally said those things, even though stealing someone else''s love might


    have been inappropriate. But love itself is innocent, and what she said wasn''t meant to be taken


    seriously!"


    Alice couldn''t help butugh. "Even facing death, you are unrepentant. Regardless of her motives, I


    can charge you and your daughter with plotting to usurp the throne based on those words alone. Not to


    mention your involvement in framing and sabotaging Doctor Maxwell''s efforts to treat General Bleu''s


    illness. Isn''t all of this preparation for the throne? I never expected that you two had been eyeing my


    throne for so long. Lucian, what are you still trying to argue?"


    With that, she ordered those around her. "Guards, arrest Lucian and Beatrix!"


    The guards exchanged nces and slowly approached the two.


    Beatrix screamed in panic and took a few steps back, hiding behind Lucian.


    Lucian, holding her, stepped back and urgently exined, "Alice, those words were entirely guided by


    Eugene. Your sister just likes Eugene, and he manipted her. This is all part of Eugene and Olivia''s


    scheme. We''re your family, Alice. How can you trust a stranger over us?"


    At that, he turned to incite the Cab Consuls. "Haven''t you all noticed? This is Eugene''s deliberate


    retaliation. When I found out that Olivia was the thief who stole the ne, I did use the Tears of the


    Ocean to implicate her, but it was all for the good of you and General Bleu. I was worried you''d be


    deceived. I admit my methods were somewhat inappropriate, but the charge of plotting to usurp the


    throne is far too unjust for us. Are you just going to stand by and let Eugene and that thief lead the


    queen?"


    Alice sneered; She wanted to see how many Cab Consuls were on Lucian''s side. So, she said,


    "Lucian, I''m not the young girl I used to be, and you don''t need to spread rumors. Let''s hear everyone''s


    opinions if you want to hear them. Don''t think that I''m ruling with an iron fist."


    She looked at everyone and said, "Feel free to speak your mind about this matter."


    The crowd remained silent.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
