Chapter 1429 Full of Schemes


    She couldn''t ept not doing anything and watching Elisa return to ascend the throne and receive the


    citizens'' adoration.


    Irene controlled her emotions and said, "Eden, don''t forget that you''re not the real crown prince. What


    are the consequences of you protecting Elisa? Don''t talk to me about love. You and Elisa only met not


    long ago. Don''t you think it''s ridiculous to give up what you''ve been pursuing for years just because of


    that so-called ''interest'' in her?"


    Irene knew what Eden was most concerned about and his feelings toward Elisa. So, every word she


    spoke hit the bull''s eye.

    Eden red at her bitterly.


    Irene smiled. "Killing me at this critical time won''t do you any good. Even if my country doesn''t fight for


    me, you should remember whose turf this is. If you cause bloodshed and affect their business, do you


    think the mysterious person behind all this will let you off? Also, do you really think that I came


    unprepared?" The coldness in Irene''s eyes grew more apparent.


    Edenid a hand on her just now, so she couldn''t simply pretend as if nothing had happened.


    Eden narrowed his eyes and emanated a threatening aura. "So?"


    "You think there''ll be no consequences after killing me? But have you considered that I reached where I


    am today not just bypromising and giving in?" Irene smirked dangerously.


    Eden didn''t reply but stared fixedly at her.


    Irene continued, "I have kept my guard up ever since we started cooperating. Don''t even think of


    obtaining what I fail to obtain. If I die, you won''t have it any better!"


    At that moment, Eden realized it was not a good idea to offend a woman. He didn''t know what crazy


    things Irene might do. Before his n seeded, he didn''t intend to burn bridges with Irene.


    "Many people saw using in together. We might be aughing stock if we suddenly go in


    separate ways. At this moment, you shouldn''t act rashly, or you might invite unnecessary troubles."


    Eden gave in, but his expression remained unpleasant.


    Irene knew Eden merely gave in temporarily and realized that he wasn''t her only indispensable partner.


    However, she decided that she couldn''t kick him outpletely yet. Both of them kept their own


    schemes to themselves.

    On the other hand, Elisa followed Mr. North to the fourth floor. The space wasrge and luxuriously


    furnished.


    They could clearly see the scenes downstairs through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Every corner of the


    casino was disyed on multiple screens.


    A thought came to mind when Elisa saw the numerous monitors. "Boss, may I check the footage from a


    few days ago?" Elisa asked a suit-d middle-aged man who ced his hands on his back.


    The man turned around upon hearing the request. His mask was removed. Although age had left its


    traces on his face, his temperament and charisma couldn''t be concealed.


    The man nodded in consent.


    She extracted the footage of the private room where she, Gareth, and Nicole were in. Everything


    looked normal besides the appearance of the person who impersonated her.
