Chapter 1427 I Am the Queen
Lucian said, "So, you're taking the thief's side?"
Alice smacked the armrest of the throne and declared firmly, "She is a guest of Eurosia!"
He narrowed his eyes and said, "In the video, it clearly shows that Olivia stole the
necklace! She also happened to have this necklace in her purse. Regardless of the truth of
the matter, you can't deny that she's a suspect. It doesn't matter whether she stole the
'Tears of the Ocean', it was still found in her bag. Yet, you still treat such a person as an
honored guest?! Alice, you shouldn't let your personal bias against Beatrix and me color
your judgment! You should not gamble with the interests of Eurosia based on a mere
whim!"
Alice simply looked at him and said, "I am the Queen of Eurosia. You have no right to
dictate my actions!"
Lucian felt a surge of anger in his heart. This fury wasn't only directed toward Alice, but
also toward Blanchett.
Alice and Beatrix were the same age. Beatrix was even the eldest princess. Yet, that
blasted woman insisted on passing the throne to someone like Alice!
To make matters even more unbearable, this brat would always use her status as the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtQueen to suppress them.
She's doing it again right now.
Did she really take them for easy pickings?
So, he frowned and said, "Alice, if you insist on acting this way, then I really can't let you
have your way. Although you are Queen, you are harming the interests of Eurosia with
your irresponsible actions. I can't just stand by and do nothing!"
Finally, he ordered the guards, "Investigate this matter thoroughly. Olivia cannot leave the
palace until the truth is revealed!"
Alice became furious as she rose to her feet and hissed, "Lucian, are you going against a
royal decree?"
Behind his glasses, his eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness as he replied, "Since you're
so incompetent, I really don't think you deserve to sit in that position!"
Then, he swept his gaze across the room and declared, "Do you all think I have done
something wrong? You all saw how everything played out with your own two eyes. I have
always placed Eurosia's interest first. That woman is a thief who is full of lies, yet Queen
Alice still insists on protecting her. The Queen is even refusing anyone to detain her. It
doesn't matter what the Queen's reasons are; you can't deny that she is harming the
interests of Eurosia!"
Alice could feel her patience snap as she glared at the guards who were about to attack
Olivia. She shouted sternly, "Stop right there! I'm not even dethroned yet! Who is the one
paying your salaries here? Shouldn't the lot of you know just whose orders to follow? How
dare you put someone else's words above your Queen's?! What? Are you all turning your
cloaks?!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the discussions among the crowd came to a sudden
halt.
Hugh immediately stepped forward and said, "This is Eurosia, and Alice is the Queen. If
she is not worthy of this position, then who is? You? Or your daughter?"
Lucian looked at Hugh, and a glint of malice flashed in his eyes. "Mr. Plumpton, you have
only just arrived. So, you are not aware of the situation here. It's better for you to stay out
of it."
"I think you are the one who is not aware of their station!" Hugh retorted. "Alice is the
Queen of Eurosia. As long as she is present, it doesn't matter what investigation would
need to be conducted—her orders are law!"
Lucian scowled. "Hugh, cease harping about trivial matters when this is a major problem! I
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwould have conceded if Alice could provide convincing investigation results. However, the
fact remains that we don't know anything about the situation. Yet, you still insist on taking
Olivia away before she can be questioned. Have you considered what would happen if our
prime suspect vanishes before we could proceed with our investigation?!"
Hugh merely answered, "I invited Doctor Maxwell under General Bleu's orders. So, anyone
who dares to obstruct me from taking her to General Bleu will be charged with obstructing
official duties."
Then, he took the walkie-talkie and ordered, "Imperial Guards, come in!"
Soon, the gates of the palace swung open, and several imperial guards in blue uniforms
entered. They were different from the palace guards, whom Lucian's words could still
sway. These men only listened to Doreen's orders.
In fact, their arrival represented Doreen's intentions.
Doreen's abilities and methods were unmatched in the entirety of Eurosia, not to mention
Lucian's. This was also the reason why Lucian and Beatrix did everything they could to
prevent Doreen from recuperating.
Hugh regarded Lucian arrogantly as he said, "Protect Mr. Nolan and Doctor Maxwell and
take them to the Governor General's residence. If anyone tries to stop you, you have the
right to silence them!"
