NovelAppChapter 1716: All Wishes are Desires Fulfilled.
The girl was leaning against the window, looking in the direction of the palace with a sad expression on her face. She cried so
much that she almost couldn't breathe.
She couldn't understand why, but after coming to the central city, the man she admired had becthe queen's man in one fell
Swoop...
She was sad, angry and puzzled, but didn't even have the qualification to fight for him.
Her father was just a mediocre nobleman and she didn't dare to compete with the queen for her man by being willful and ignorant.
All she could do was be sad by herself.
Her brother stood aside, watching his sister's sad appearance and sighed before turning his gaze towards their father.
"Father, what exactly is going on?"
Just as their father was about to speak, clear footsteps suddenly cfrom outside of the door.
The next second, someone pushed open the door from outside.
A familiar figure stood outside with a slender body and looked coldly at this family of three inside. Without that mask covering his
face anymore, his charming features were fully exposed. Coupled with slingering demonic energy that hadn't completely
dissipated from escaping out of vortex earlier made him look like he could charm anyone he wanted.
The girl blushed as she looked at him happily before running towards him. "You're back!"
But before she could run over there completely unbridledly , her own father and brother stopped her in time.
The girl only cared about being happy without noticing how cold and murderous-looking he appeared in his eyes.
This person... definitely did not chere to thank them for saving his life!

Osvaldo's cold gaze locked onto the middle-aged man in the room. "Tell me, a year ago, did you saveby accident or were you
ordered to do so?"
The middle-aged man's face twitched slightly. "It was purely accidental..."
Osvaldo raised his hand and pointed a knife at the young girl. "I don't like it when people lie to my face. This is your last chance!"
The young girl looked at the sword pressed against her throat, her face turning pale.
She wanted to scream but her brother covered her mouth before she could.
The young man turned to his father with an anxious expression. "Father!"
After a year of being around this man, they knew he was ruthless and cruel.
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment before finally speaking up under the threat of harm to his children. "Someone told
there would be great rewards in store for me."
In reality, when he found this man he had already been bandaged up by someone else.
They simply brought him back with them.
His only relief now was that they hadn't done anything harmful towards him during this past year.
After all... wasn't Osvaldo considered royalty?
In a cold voice Osvaldo asked: "Where is that note?"
The middle-aged man produced it and handed it over without hesitation.
With his answer obtained, Osvaldo withdrew his knife and left without another word.
After he left, the young girl looked at the empty doorway and suddenly burst into tears. "Brother, he's so scary. I'll never like him
again..."
Her older brother comforted her while feeling relieved.
Osvaldo walked out of the hotel and pulled out the note with its clear handwriting, staring at it for a few seconds.
He had seen that shandwriting before.
In the capital.
The day Selena got engaged to him, she went to see Aarav who gave her a note. Although Osvaldo didn't fully read it, he
remembered the writing on it from just one glance.
It was exactly like this one in his hand now.
The conflict between Riddle Group's two ladies had reached its climax. For years, Aarav had been secretly protecting Selena and
couldn't rest easy until he personally entered Central City himself. But where was he now?
Osvaldo put away the note and looked towards the direction of Administrative Hall before turning towards the palace's direction.
At that moment inside Administrative Hall, many people were also sleepless for a night.
The guard standing outside the closed door looked worried. Ever since Miss Regent returned from His Majesty's wedding yesterday,
she had locked herself inside and hadn't cout yet.
The Queen's wedding had been interrupted by a sudden change of groom. And this new groom was someone many of them had
seen with their own eyes during the Rose Palace massacre a year ago. Just thinking about those eyes filled with slaughter and cruel
domination sent shivers down their spines.
Now, the Queen was back on her throne, and that man had also returned. The situation that once favored them suddenly turned
against Miss Regent, making things particularly difficult for her.
On this night in the administrative hall, people were anxious while an enclosed dark room remained silent and cold. A young
woman dressed in military uniform with peach blossom eyes knelt on the ground with a knife by her side. She gazed up at a self-

"Your Majesty Yingzong," Lillian stared at the portrait wistfully as if lost in thought, "you once said that as long as you were here to
defend our borders and conquer all enemies, you would establish Riddle Group's eternal foundation! Even after your passing when
your soul becone with dragons’, you would bless our empire to thrive forever!"
"And | share your belief!"
"If | cannot achieve my wishes in this life, | would rather die trying!"
"I swear by the sun and moon, witnessed by heaven and earth, heard by gods and demons alike!"
As dawn broke, the woman who had been sitting all night finally stood up. She drew the knife from her side, its sharp edge glinting
in her cold peach blossom eyes.
Lillian held onto the knife tightly as she stepped out of the dark room. Standing straight under the gray sky with her snow-white
blade pointed directly at the palace, she spoke in a chilling voice that echoed through every ear in the administrative hall.
"Gather all my people tonight and followto attack the palace!"
Under that ssky, Selena let down her hair as she stood on a porch looking towards the administrative hall. Carly walked over
with a white cloak to help Selena put it on gently while asking,"Your Majesty, why don't you sleep for a little longer?"
It was Selena's wedding night last night but not only did her groom disappear but even Selena herself woke up unusually early.
Selena looked towards where the palace was located with black eyes shining dimly,"Carly... the weather is about to change."
Carly paused for a moment before instinctively looking up at the sky above their heads where she saw nothing but grayish-white
clouds.
The weather today doesn't seem too good, but... is that what you meant, Your Highness?
Carly instinctively looked towards Selena, but all she saw was a disturbing calm.
She looked at Selena's frail body. "Your Highness, it's getting cold. Let's go back to the room."
Selena smiled faintly. "The scenery around the city has developed well in the past year. Why don't you go visit my mother and have
her take my mother out for sfresh air?"
