Novel Full Chapter 416 Particularly Jealous_2
In fact, she hadn’t felt even the slightest bit of power from the other person, that so-called “Demonic Woman” seemed to be just an ordinary person.
That was just too good!
Even if she decided not to kill her, when it came time to escape from here, she could hold her hostage and kidnap her!
Charlotte suddenly realized, right, if she could kidnap the girl in front of her from Fischer Manor, that would definitely be an important merit!
She was the daughter of that Christine! With this trump card, Cyart’s rebels wouldn’t be too passive when facing the Fischer family in the future!
Yes, she must kidnap her no matter what!
“But rest assured, now that you’re here, there won’t be any more trouble!” Hecate’s smile was as warm as the sun, making Charlotte fall silent for a long moment, unsure of what to say.
“I… thank you for saving me, for not letting me freeze to death outside.”
Hecate nodded gently and continued with a smile, “Don’t thank me, it’s what I should do. I think anyone who came across this situation would choose to save someone just like I did.”
After speaking, she continued to caress Charlotte’s forehead and said calmly, “I will call a doctor to come see you soon.”
“No!” Charlotte shouted subconsciously.
“Hmm? What’s wrong?”
Hecate looked puzzled, and after Charlotte thought for a moment, she continued, “I, I am a bit afraid of strangers…”
“Is that so?”
Hecate thought for a moment and said very gently, “Good child, I understand what you’re thinking, yes, you must have been through a lot over the years.”
“But I still hope you get better soon. Since you are afraid of strangers, I can find a gentle female doctor for you. She should be able to make you feel less afraid and uncomfortable.”
Charlotte fell silent, clearly feeling that the girl’s every move was filled with genuine goodwill, and couldn’t help but feel a pang of guilt deep inside her heart.
What if there were good people within the Fischer family too?
In that moment, the girl’s heart felt as if it had been torn in two, and a torrent of emotions raged within her chest.
Complex, confused, and lost like a dense fog that tightly enveloped her, Charlotte felt almost suffocated.
She was somewhat unwilling to believe, and didn’t want to believe, that the gentle girl who had offered her help in her most helpless moment belonged to the same family as the man who was the source of her past pain and scars.
No!
She had to make a decision…
So many people had died at the hands of the Fischer family…
She couldn’t let a little kindness confuse her…
Not kill her, but at least take her hostage, yes, she wouldn’t kill her …
Charlotte had made up her mind deep inside, and just then a shadow appeared outside the door, and her heart jolted.
“Sister, may I come in?”
Hecate also showed a surprised look, quickly saying loudly, “Wait a moment, Arte!”
Charlotte was shocked when she heard the name of the incoming person.
Arte Fischer was the man who was about to marry Queen Peggy. If Arte really succeeded in marrying the Queen, he would be Cyart’s future prince.
What to do? He was about to come in!
An intense anxiety and panic surged deep within her heart—had she been discovered, it would all be over. Should she take advantage of the situation to take the two hostage and fight to the death in an attempt to break out of Fischer Manor?
Huge waves rose again in Charlotte’s heart, and then she suddenly realized that Hecate had covered her with a blanket and then she felt a soft touch on her hand, as if Hecate had sat down on her.
Was she hiding her?
Hidden under the blankets, where she could smell a faint scent of flowers, Charlotte, tucked away inside, was filled with doubts, not daring to breathe too deeply. Luckily she was thin enough, and the bedding was thick enough, to completely conceal her body.
“All right, you can come in now, Arte.”
First came the sound of the door opening, then footsteps of someone entering. Charlotte was very aware that the person who came in must be Arte Fischer, the young man about to marry Queen Peggy.
He was one of the detestable beasts of the Fischer family!
“What is it, Arte?” Hecate asked.
Soon, Charlotte heard a male voice filled with hesitation and a slight youthfulness.
“I just feel so confused, sister.”
“Peggy, Her Majesty the Queen has only met me a few times, and she’s even several years older than me. It’s very likely we have nothing in common, yet we’re getting married in a day. It really makes me feel lost… I don’t know how to put it, but I just feel really uncomfortable.”
Arte was Christine’s second child. While others might fear his sister Hecate, known as the “Demonic Woman,” he and his younger sister Delia always felt she was the closest person in the world to them.
He had only met Peggy Adler five times at banquets, and they had exchanged fewer than thirty sentences. Yet, Arte had been told upon reaching adulthood that he was going to become Queen Peggy’s husband.
Such things filled Arte’s heart with confusion and unease.
“It’s okay, Arte, you will have plenty of time to get to know and communicate with each other in the life that’s ahead of you. I think your relationship will gradually become close,” Hecate paused briefly before continuing, “and you have the destiny’s trajectory of ‘Friendly Person’, don’t you? So as long as the other person doesn’t have ill intentions, most people will take a liking to you. You don’t need to worry about being disliked by Queen Peggy.”
“But…”
Arte’s voice was still filled with doubt, anxiety, and even a hint of resentment.
“Why does it have to be me? Isn’t Archer of a more suitable age?”
Hecate let out a sigh and said, “His position does not allow it, as you know.”
“But he can change other parts of the doctrine, so why can’t he change this one? Can’t it be so that from his reign, a High Priest is allowed to marry?”
Doctrine? High Priest? What were they talking about? Charlotte, wrapped in the bedding, felt very confused, somewhat at a loss.
“That’s because he hopes to devote his body and soul to Him, you know they have all done the same, how could he apply a double standard?” Stay updated through empire
“Alright…”
Arte took a deep breath, turned around, and then said, “I understand, sister. I will try to adapt. Thank you.”
After Arte left, Charlotte meant to emerge from under the covers, but found her body held down by Hecate’s hand, as if indicating she should not come out yet.
What?
Had she discovered my identity, or what was it? Charlotte’s mind was in turmoil.
Just then another man walked in from outside the door, seemingly wearing boots, his footsteps heavy, and his voice magnetic yet authoritative.
“Hecate, I hope I’m not disturbing you?”
Hecate was silent for a long moment, then immediately asked, “Uncle Darren? What brings you here?”
“Oh, there are some things I wanted to discuss with you, let’s do it now, as I’ll be busy with many things in a little while.”
Darren Fischer!
It was him!
The atmosphere around became heavy and oppressive, making it almost impossible for Charlotte to breathe. Her heart wanted to scream, to flee, but her throat felt as if choked, unable to make a sound.
Fear struck in an instant, and she instinctively hugged herself tightly, seeking a sliver of comfort amid the boundless fear.
Darren Fischer, Darren Fischer, Darren Fischer, Darren Fischer… the demon of the East Coast, Duke Darren!
The next moment, Charlotte’s mind was consumed by the burning flames of hatred!
Her eyes, once sparkled with innocence and dreams, were now replaced by endless hatred.
Hatred, like the darkest ink of the night, had been eroding Charlotte’s soul noiselessly, causing her to toss and turn during sleepless nights, unable to let go.
Finally, the wheel of destiny slowly turned, bringing her and the enemy who had once brought her endless pain and despair into each other’s air for the first time.
Charlotte’s heartbeat accelerated like drumbeats, her eyes ignited by the flames of anger, mingled with a complex mix of sorrow, reluctance and determination.
She would never allow this grudge to fade with the passage of time.
Instead, this force kept building up inside Charlotte, becoming an unstoppable torrent, compelling her to take action and seek justice for herself.
I’m going to kill you!
The thought of revenge grew wildly in her heart, utterly uncontrollable!
Darren Fischer!
