Chapter 1150

Meanwhile, Maxine swung open the door of a secluded villa located in Cansington's Military Region. The villa was surrounded by numerous fully armed soldiers.

The moment she tried to walk out, several soldiers stood in her path. They kneeled on the ground abruptly and pleaded, "Ms. Maxine, please don't make this difficult for us. Our superiors have given us our orders and failure to execute them will result in us receiving the death penalty. If we let you leave today, we'll be punished by military law. In the best-case scenario, we'd be stripped of our rank and dismissed from the army. In the worst-case scenario, we'll be subject to the death penalty.”

When she heard this, Maxine furrowed her brows worriedly.

Her acupoints had been unsealed since last night, and she wanted to leave but had come face to the soldiers who were begging her to comply out of fear of losing their own lives.

At that moment, Thea also walked out of the villa and also saw the kneeling soldiers.

Since she had undergone military training, she understood a soldier's sworn duty was to be bound to the orders given to them. In essence, they were simply acting according to their superior’s wishes.

"Call the Blithe King. I need to see him,” Thea ordered the men.

One of the kneeling soldiers replied hesitantly, "Ms. Thea, we can't do that for you. He has gone for a field inspection and is not expected to return soon.”
