A Beauty with Multiple Masks novel Chapter 1753

“Why are you looking at me like that? Do you think I’m the one who stole the firearms?” asked the Duke when he noticed Nancy’s suspicious gaze.

His sharp gaze was focused on the woman.

Taking note of Nancy’s silence, the Duke’s expression turned gloomy. “I’m not that shameless. I’ve promised you that I’ll only take half of the portion. I’ll never go back on my words.”

“Then who do you think took the firearms? No one knows about this other than the two of us and our subordinates,” said Nancy with a grim look on her face.

At that moment, she wasn’t worried about falling out with the Duke. Since the firearms were gone, so were her confidence and power.

The Duke regarded her silently as well.

If it wasn’t either of us, then who took them? Which one of us leaked the information?

At that moment, both of them suspected each other and did not believe the statements of the other party at all.

“Your Majesty, this happened in your territory, and those firearms are yours. I have sufficient reason to believe it is you who self-directed this show. No one dares to pull dirty tricks on me, and you’re the first to do so!” The Duke stared intently at Nancy.

Nancy was so angered by his accusation that her chest hurt.

Why would I put on such a show?

I still need him to help me in returning to the palace to become the queen of Turlen.

Why would I be so stupid to put on such an act to steal his firearms?

I did think about pulling some dirty tricks, but he ended up discovering my intentions before I could even do it!

In the end, I still decided to give him the firearms. Now that the firearms are gone, I’m as angry as he is. How can he suspect me?
