Chapter 290
Jeremy Cooper explained, “That day in the cell, I wanted to check, but Jansen Princeton broke free. Thereafter, he was restrained so I never found a chance”
Tiffany Kelley nodded and said with resignation, “There’s nothing we can do about this matter now so we can let this go. The main thing is this mind-control spell. You guys have to be carefid in the future and don’t fall for it.”
Once they fall under the mind-control spell, they would be at the mercy of other people and could be manipulated at will.
Just the thought alone was terrifying.
A rare smile appeared on Jeremy’s face. “It’s not that easy for a person to both administer the mind-numbing pill and recite the mind-control spell successfully
It was considered an amazing feat if that fellow was able to pull off twice.
Otherwise, wouldn’t everyone in the world know how to deploy mind-control spells and turn anybody into puppets?
Tiffany raised her eyebrows and asked with intrigue, ‘Lord Cooper, you seem to know a lot about such things, don’t you?”
Jeremy clammed up at once.
This had something to do with his background.
-Although he believed Tiffany and had also told her that he came to Lovell City to look for someone, he could not say
anything else.
Otherwise… it might endanger Tiffany.
June Spencer’s eyes shifted surreptitiously to steal a glance at Jeremy. She then said meaningfully, “I remember there’s a mysterious country whose natives are very skillful at using black magic. Moreover, the people there have amazing abilities and excellent medical skills.”
These words piqued Tiffany’s curiosity. “Who are they?”
June turned to Tiffany. “The Azure Sea Royal Family.
“In addition to black magic and medical skills, it is said that the Azure Sea Royal Family also possesses a secret treasure. Anyone who obtains it can not only view his previous life and current life but can also change his fate in defiance of the heavens.”
Tiffany’s eyelids twitched.
She had a past life and she also fulfilled the condition of the fate-changing heaven-defying type.
If such a secret treasure really existed, was it heaven’s blessing that she was born into this present life or was there something else at work?
The more Tiffany thought about it, the more curious she became. She asked again, “If this treasure is truly so magical, doesn’t that mean that everyone wants it?”
June nodded. “That’s right. More than 20 years ago, there were several factions fighting over it. At that time, there was also a major power struggle within the Azure Sea Royal Family. At one point, the family was split into many branches.
“Later on, that treasure and the key to unlock it disappeared together. Until now, we don’t know where these two items are, and no one has found them”.
Chapter 290
As she spoke, June glanced at Jeremy again.
She continued, “Rumor has it that the key to the treasure was stolen by a servant. The youngest princess of the Azure Sea Royal Family, who was the most doted on, was also taken away by the same servant at the same time.
“If this rumor is true, then the key to unlock the treasure is very likely in the hands of this lost young princess.
“As far as I know, there are already many factions looking for her and the treasure. Once these people locate the young princess before the Azure Sea Royal Family, I’m afraid…“
June did not finish her sentence, but one could easily draw lils conclusion from there.
Just as wealth invited envy, the young princess and her treasure would inevitably invite covetous eyes.
Of course, this had nothing to do with Tiffany and her group. Whatever happened to the young princess was also none of their business.
However…
Tiffany noticed the change in Jeremy’s expression as he listened to June. As such, her suspicions grew stronger.
She did not miss the fact that June kept glancing at Jeremy every now and then while talking. She appeared to be observing his reaction and expression.
She was testing Jeremy
Based on what Jeremy
d before, there was no doubt he was sent by the Azure Sea Royal Family.
And his mission was to locate the missing young princess. So…
June’s identity and background were also a mystery. Since she knew so much and even guessed Jeremy’s identity, did this mean that she and James Quinn were also connected to the Azure Sea Royal Family in some way?
Tiffany did not ask and would not ask.
Anyone who spilled the beans under interrogation was not trustworthy.
Tiffany trusted these people. Whether it was James Quinn, June or Jeremy, they were all on her side and she never doubted them.
She had never doubted them in the past and she would never doubt them in the future.
The only thing that puzzled her and made her feel conflicted was Melody Princeton.
If she thought about it carefully, the lost young princess of the Azure Sea Royal Family would be about the same age as Melody now. Coincidentally, Melody also knew black magic
Could it be that Melody was the young princess who was secretly taken away by the servant?
Tiffany was shocked by her own speculation.
She subconsciously looked at Jeremy with mixed feelings.
If that was the case, then Jeremy, who had been entrusted with a mission, would have no choice but to stand against Tiffany in the future…
It was like a situation whereby, as they got closer to the finishing line, they drifted further apart.
Tiffany shook her head to stop her mind from thinking in that direction.
Chapter 290
By contrast, Jeremy was remarkably calm.
When he felt Tiffany’s eyes on him, he simply said, Tm hungry
Tiffany was stunned momentarily before she burst out laughing Lord Cooper wanted to be fed now.
She had to admit that it was a little heart-warming.
Jeremy was expressing his stance in his own way.
There was no need for promises or oaths, and repeated emphasis was even less necessary.
Jeremy was telling her in a roundabout way that he also treated her as one of his own.
Therefore, in the future, no matter how things change or what the difficulties might be, even if he had to stand against her, loyal Jeremy would never do anything to hurt Tillany,
Tiffany recollected herself and broke into a smile. “Come, let’s eat. I’ll give you an extra serving tonight
“Mm-hmm.” Jeremy was still as placid as ever.
His emotions were restrained, and it was impossible to tell if he was happy or angry.
Yet, at this moment, the corners of his lips curled up imperceptibly. That vague hint of joy seeped out and made his originally delicate and neat face look even more dazzling.
Tiffany wanted badly to see what he looked like under the mask.
She gulped a few times. Should she try it tonight?
Should she sneak into Jeremy’s room in the middle of the night and remove the mask on his face to see his true appearance while he was asleep?
Of course, she would never dare to try something so bold.
With Jeremy’s capability, she would probably be caught before she even got close. Sigh!
The murder case had come to an end. Although the final outcome was different from what Tiffany expected, Melody did not gain anything despite losing a great deal.
Adverse public opinion dissipated with the publication of the evidence, and all the hoo-ha gradually died down.
When Tiffany returned to school, no one dared to call her a murderer, whether publicly or behind her back. Even if they were resentful, they did not dare to show it on their faces.
By accident, she found out that those few trouble-making thugs who locked Ged Moody in the abandoned equipment room, and whom she beat up viciously subsequently, had quit school.
When Tiffany inquired, it was said that something had happened at their respective homes. Those few thugs who spewed profanities at her did not end up well either. One of them broke his leg and the other broke his arm.
Another became a cripple outright.
Zoe Stevens felt very vindicated after hearing the news. “Almighty God is just. I knew they would get their comeuppance. Almighty God is punishing them!”
Tiffany murmured a reply but one thought swirled in her mind
Chapter 290
It seemed like she had to make a trip to Royal Bay to express he thanks.
