Divorce Anxiety

Chapter 459 It Does Not Make Sense

“Adina?” Clarissa was confused. “Don’t you mean Wilbur?”

Hah!

Charles scoffed. “Wilbur is greedy, but so is Adina.”

“What could she possibly want?” Clarissa couldn’t understand.

“Adina might be a royal princess, but royals are plentiful. Only someone capable enough will be prioritized.” Charles explained, “If Adina helps Wilbur take down Blissful Sect, her status amongst the royals will rise significantly. Do you get what I mean?”

“So, you’re saying Blissful Sect is just a tool for her to rise through the ranks of royalty?” Clarissa frowned.

“Yes. Furthermore, if she takes over Blissful Sect, she’ll become more useful to the royal family. Do you understand how important this matter is now?” Charles asked.

“Yes. The only way for us to acquire Blissful Sect is by dethroning Adina so that she can’t help Wilbur,” replied Clarissa.

“Mhm.” Charles nodded. “I’ve been observing things for a while now. Tomorrow, I intend to fly to Dartan.”

“I’ll come too!” Clarissa tugged at his sleeve. “Take me with you.”

“Of course, I’ll bring you along.” Charles smiled deeply. “I’ll take you to meet the prince, Lachman.”

“You know him?” Clarissa was surprised.

“Not me, Kate.” He explained, “Three years ago, Lachman came looking for Kate in private. He wanted her to help him cure an illness.”

“I’ve heard of that. His siblings took advantage of him because of his poor health,” stated Clarissa.

Charles nodded. “Yes. However, in these past three years, with Kate’s medicinal prescription, his body has healed completely. The reason he fakes illness is to act as a protective shell. That’s why he’s never publicly announced that he’s recovered.”

Clarissa nodded in acknowledgment. “I see. I doubt Adina would ever guess that.”

“Lachman has wanted to take action for a long time now. He plans to wipe out all the people who have been eyeing his throne.” Charles smirked. “We will go to him and ask him for his help in dealing with Adina. Then, we can deal with Wilbur.”

“Sounds good!” Clarissa nodded.

“You better go to bed then. I’ll get someone to book the flights,” said Charles.

“Okay!” Clarissa smiled. “Good night, Charles.”

“Night.”

Clarissa turned around to go back into the house.

Charles went out to the balcony and stared at the night view of the city.
