Chapter 429 He sees you as a threat,Evane. "Hmm? Lovis? What happened?" Evane frowned in confusion as she saw Lovis standing in front of her room. Then, a smile appeared on her face and she questioned, "What? Were you missing this Elder Sister of yours?" Lovis, however, clearly wasn't in the mood for any jokes. "Heh, trying to act ignorant I see." Lovis snorted. Seeing that, Evane frowned, "You seem to be in a bad mood." "Oh yeah? It seems that way to you?" Lovis snorted again. This time, Evane realized that something was wrong. She then turned towards Nux and questioned, 'Did you do something?' 'Hmm? Of course not.' Nux denied. 'Other than stealing some paper from his room.' He completed the sentence. 'What did you steal?' Evane questioned with a frown. Nux smiled. 'Nux, tell me. What did you steal?' Nux, however, did not reply. He was waiting for something. 'Nu-' Evane was about to say something, however, suddenly, Lovis spoke up. "Are you thinking of an excuse right now? If that's true then I must say, you are shit at planning something. If I were you, I would already have an excuse even before you meet me." Lovis spat. "Huh? What are you talking about?" Evane questioned. "Ahh, so that's it. Your dumb brain couldn't come up with an excuse, therefore, you are planning on acting ignorant. I must say, that's quite dumb but that's to be expected of you." Evane's face turned serious. "Lovis, I don't know what you are on about, however, that is not the correct way to talk to your Elder Sister." "Haah? Do you think I care about the fact that you are my Elder Sister? Stop daydreaming! Just because I indulged with you for a while, you think I am someone you can fool anytime you want? Did you think you can play around and I wouldn't know?" Lovis shot back and Evane's eyes widened in surprise. Just what is Lovis talking about? And… why is he acting like that? He has never done something like this before! However, Lovis was not done yet. He walked close to Evane and spat, "You are here for the Throne, aren't you, bitch?" Evane's eyes widened even further. "What? Surprised that I found out? Did you really think that you can hide it after doing something like this?" "Just what are you talking about!? Are you going to tell me what happened!?" Evane shouted. "You!" Seeing that she was still acting, Lovis couldn't control himself and was about to attack Evane, however, before his hand could touch Evane's face, Nux grabbed it. "I stopped myself before, I won't do it again. Back off. Or you will regret it." 'Haah… I told you to wait a little…' Amaya sighed. 'And let him hit Evane?' Nux questioned back. 'She can defend herself, she is about to become an Expert Stage Cultivator after 1 or 2 more sessions, remember?' 'That bastard cursed her. He should be glad that he is still alive.' 'You need to control that temper of yours, the plan won't work as we want it to.' 'We will think of another plan, I am not planning on letting anyone touch my wife. The Throne can go fuck itself.' Hearing those words, Amaya sighed. 'Whatever… let's just see how it goes.'𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚 Then she glanced at Nux and a small smile appeared on her face. On the other side, Lovis, who glanced at Nux could feel a dominant aura suffocating him. As a cultivation maniac, he could feel it. The disparity in strength, he could feel that prince or not, if he does anything reckless here, he will die. Therefore, he quickly calmed down, and then, he stepped back. Seeing that Lovis had calmed down a little, Evane questioned. "Now can you tell me what happened?" "Please stop acti-" "Will you shut up and tell me what happened!?" Evane questioned in frustration. "Stop acting like you don't know! Acting Ignorant! Playing with me! Why are you talking in codes!? Just tell me what happened and we can talk about it!" She shouted. Lovis couldn't believe that Evane was still trying to act as if nothing happened, however, this time, he wasn't planning on backing down. "Alright, tell me then, where is the paper where I wrote about Lucas? You should have it with you, correct? Show it to me." Evane tilted her head in confusion and soon, a paper appeared in her hands. "Here." Lovis took the paper and then, his anger turned into confusion. "How do you have it?" He questioned. "You were the one who gave it to me…" Evane didn't know what her little brother was talking about. However, soon, she realized something and turned towards Nux. 'You stole his paper!' 'Umm… I borrowed it for a little while…' 'What did you do with it!?' Evane questioned. 'I… kinda gave it to Lucas…' Nux answered with a wry smile on his face. Evane's eyes widened in surprise. 'So that's why you wanted him to write 2 papers.' She realized. 'I just wanted to show you your brother's true face. Didn't you see? He came here without even checking his own paper first. He didn't even consider the possibility of checking his own room and directly blamed everything on you. If the relationship between the two of you was as strong as you think it is, he wouldn't have doubted you. He sees you as a threat, Evane. He is wary of you. He is scared that you will take away the Throne he always desired. He cares about the throne a lot more than he cares about you, or anyone for that matter.' Nux explained everything and Evane turned silent. "…" "…" On the other side, Lovis was silent as well. He couldn't understand, if Evane has this letter, then how did Lucas get his hands on it? Does that mean… Another thought appeared in his mind and without saying anything, he turned around and rushed towards his own room. 'You see that? He didn't even apologize for acting like that. Do you really think he is as innocent as you think he is? Evane, you need to understand, this is the Royal Palace, everyone here only cares about one thing, the Crown. Everyone here is selfish. They only think about themselves and your brother, He is no different.'
