The Medallion

Chapter 1824 A Remote Place

"What? Do you care to explain that further?" This time, Gilbert could not read Rocky's mind. He had no clue what the young man was planning.

"Well, let it be a secret in the meantime. I'm sure you will realize it soon," Rocky said, deliberately kept Gilbert guessing.

Although Gilbert still had some misgivings about it, he had no choice but to go with it since Princess Layla already agreed to Rocky's plans.

Then, as the two returned to the Ghost Fief, Gilbert began preparing for the wedding ceremony. At the same time, Rocky also started collecting more information about Zain and Enoch, Layla's biggest rivals in the selection for the next leader of the royal family.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

At this time, the date of Rocky and Valeria's wedding was finally set, and it would be held a week later.

Then, another two days passed. There were only five days before the wedding.

Rocky had just gotten out of the Ghost Palace when a delicate figure suddenly appeared in front of him. In a flash, a snow-white dagger was pressed against his neck, rendering him motionless.

"Gloria, what do you think you're doing? Put that dagger away from me! What if someone sees you?" Although the figure was hiding her face, Rocky could easily tell from her aura that it was none other than Gloria.

"Why should I do that? You are going to marry that woman behind my back! How dare you?! Do you think I'll just let this slide?" Gloria scolded angrily.

"We've already talked about this. You know that we are engaged, and we're bound to get married sooner or later," Rocky reminded her.

"Then, what about me? You're just going to toss me away?" Gloria's enchanting eyes widened as if she had already lost all logic.

"Have you forgotten? This marriage is just necessary for the alliance of our fiefs. It is not real. It's not like I will sleep with her afterward!" Rocky reasoned strongly, knowing that this was what Gloria was thinking.

"Ha! You're just saying that!" Indeed, Gloria was not actually worried about the marriage per se, but she was afraid that Rocky might have already fallen in love with Valeria.

"Fine! If you don't believe me, you can hide inside the bridal chamber after the ceremony. If you see that I will do something to Valeria, then you can go out and stop me at any time." At this point, Rocky said whatever Gloria wanted to hear just so she would calm down.
