Chapter 369


    “No, you will eventually like me!” Magnus said confidently.


    “When will that be?” udette asked, amused.


    “On this day next year,” he replied earnestly.


    However, she became tense after hearing his response because she was


    familiar with him. Unless he has a specific n, he would not say such things.


    Now that he has said it, it implies that he is confident, and the first step

    toward that confidence is to erase the person in my heart! “Do you want to kill


    Emmanuel?” she asked nervously.


    “The path of a knight’s love and power is always filled with thorns and


    bloodshed. A knight is willing to risk his life for the sake of his princess, no


    matter the cost.” Magnus‘ answer revealed his intention.


    “Magnus, beneath your handsome appearance lies a cold, dark, and ruthless


    heart. You’re a terrifying devil,” udette said directly, her eyes earnest.


    “Yes, I am merciless toward anything and anyone I don’t care for, and I can


    be even more cruel than a devil!” he confessed. “But when ites to things I


    like, I will treat them well wholeheartedly, like you.”


    “But I don’t like devils, and I don’t want to be with one,” she asserted


    confidently and honestly.

    Then, he sighed, downed the wine, and uttered, “You may not need to like me


    for now, but no matter what, I am the most suitable man for you. I am the


    man who can protect you and make you happy. That’s an objective fact!


    When women choose men, isn’t security the first consideration? How can a


    man without money or power protect you and bring you happiness?”


    “You’re wrong!” she retorted. “Firstly, having money and power is not the


    source of a woman’s sense of security. Secondly, being forcefully protected


    by a man I don’t like will never make me happy but more like being in a


    cage!”


    Suddenly, he burst intoughter upon hearing his exnation. “udette,


    everyone lives in a cage; it’s just that the cages of the bottom ss are


    heavier than those of the upper ss. If you choose to be with that


    gynecologist, you will have a difficult life ahead. So, I will never allow you to do


    that!”


    Knock! Knock! At that moment, Emmanuel finally approached and lightly


    tapped on the table. He had been eavesdropping on their entire


    conversation and had formed an impression of Magnus based on what he


    had heard. Nheless, he wasn’t particrly interested in Magnus and


    udette’s story, but he wanted to figure out if Magnus, this wealthy young


    man, had any connection to the traitor from the Northern Region Wolf Warrior


    Unit. He was curious if Quinn could work for Magnus; the traitor might also be


    persuaded to join Magnus. However, their conversation was not about that


    topic. Emmanuel knew listening further wouldn’t provide the information he


    wanted, so he walked over to reim his seat.


    “Is there something wrong?” Magnus was displeased with this rival as he


    raised an eyebrow calmly.


    “This is my seat,” Emmanuel said.


    “I came to Yeringham from Zovince to celebrate Princess udette’s


    birthday. I made the reservation for this seat even earlier than you,” Magnus


    replied calmly.


    On the other hand, udette enjoyed the current atmosphere. Previously,


    she had alwayspeted with other women for a spot next to Emmanuel,


    but now he had topete with other men for a ce next to her. However,


    she was a wise woman. Firstly, she didn’t want Emmanuel to sh with


    Magnus again because she knew Magnus surely had a backup n.


    Secondly, she was afraid Emmanuel might give up voluntarily, so she


    preemptively said to Magnus, “Well, then, you can have this seat.” After


    saying this, she stood up, took Emmanuel’s arm, and said tenderly, “I just


    finished eating. Let’s go!”
