Dragon Queen, dressed in a plain and elegant outfit, got into the bullet-proof Rolls-Royce Phantom. She leaned on the leather seat with her eyes closed. "How's it going?"
"Barnaby has got the Jade Dragon yesterday. In addition, I've made some arrangement." Harley answered with her head lowering down.
"What?" Dragon Queen asked with dissatisfaction.
"Please don't be angry. I told the monk in Lingshan temple to invite Maximilian's wife over. You can meet her if you want later."
"If you don't want to see her, I can let someone take her away. If you don't want to do anything to her, we can just let her go."
Harley had the intention to capture Victoria, but only if Dragon Queen asked him to do it.
Dragon Queen curled her lips in disdain, and said calmly, "Do you really think you can hold her as a hostage? Men couldn't care less about women on their way to pursue power."
"I heard an emperor in Han Dynasty kicked his sons and daughters out of his carriage when he escaped. There was another famous man saying that women were just clothes, and brothers were like his arms and legs. Read more history books and you can see through the real humanity."
Harley lowered his head and said, "I am too ignorant and shallow. You are like heaven to me, and should anything dangerous happen to you, I am willing to sacrifice my life for your safety."
"Hah-hah!" Dragon Queen laughed, but her laugh sounded very disdainful.
Dragon Queen didn't believe any of the words Harley said.
"I'm serious, really. I'm speaking from the bottom of my heart."
"Okay, just keep flattering me. I don't need that. You've got the Jade Dragon, and that might be a good sign. We're going to show our gratitude for our luck."
She was full of hope. She wished she could conquer Maximilian and take the Dragon Sect under control from now on.
To conquer Maximilian might be the best result. In that way, she would be able to attend the affairs in the sect. Once the time was due, she would abolish Maximilian and take over the throne.
To kill him was an unwise move. That was because he had encountered so many incidents. She could see the silver lining now, which made her more confident.
She closed her eyes and thought for a moment. Then she said calmly. "I can meet Victoria, but I want to keep it simple. Don't scare her and don't let her know who I am."
"Understood, I'll make some arrangements for you."
"OK... will Maximilian go with her?" Dragon Queen added.
She wouldn't meet her if Maximilian was with her, because this was not a good time.
"He will not go there. There will only be Flora and Victoria," Harley hurriedly explained.
Dragon Queen nodded with satisfaction. "That's nice."
Seeing that Dragon Queen wouldn't want to say more, Harley closed his mouth and gave the driver a gesture, indicating him to drive more steadily. Dragon Queen didn't like bumps.
Canaan's Mercedes-Benz stopped in front of Maximilian. Maximilian opened the door of the passenger seat and sat in.
