Vivian talked to Jay for a long time, but unfortunately they couldn't reach an agreement.
Late at night, Catherine took the carriage home in a daze. On the way, I encountered a drunken man blocking my way, and I was furious for a moment. She was originally in a bad mood today. First she was scolded by the crown prince and then she lost money in the casino.
Even the homeless now dare to look down on her!
Catherine ordered her personal maid and groom to catch the man, and she wanted to teach him personally what a noble rank was!
The maid looked timid at the tall and strong drunkard, but fortunately the groom was very skilled and easily caught the drunkard in front of Catherine.
"Give me the whip!" Catherine grabbed the riding crop from the groom's hand.
There was a loud "snap", and the tough riding crop hit the drunkard fiercely. Suddenly he raised his messy head and stared at Catherine.
"Who allowed you to look at me with such dirty eyes!"
Catherine whipped her a second time, and the drunkard didn't move. But when she finished the third whipping and was about to give her a fourth, the drunkard suddenly grabbed the riding crop.
Catherine was accidentally dragged to the ground. The maid hurriedly helped her, and the groom let go of the drunken man's shoulder. At this moment, the drunk man suddenly took out a short sword and stabbed it with lightning speed.
"ah!"
Catherine was so frightened that she screamed loudly, and the maid ran away quickly.
The drunkard's movements were quick and his eyes were filled with murderous intent. Catherine could figure it out with just three moves. Such a person must be a professional. Who wants to kill her? Was it really the Crown Prince’s instigation?
When the drunkard was about to stab Catherine, Vivian pushed Victor out, while she looked at the houses on the left and right.
In the red house on the left, there is a group of people hiding in the crown prince. In the original plot, he watched Catherine being killed, and then took the opportunity to get rid of the queen's nephew Jay!
Hiding in the yellow house on the right is Jay's group of people. The drunkard and the groom are the people he sent to assassinate Catherine.
Victor's sudden appearance disrupted the plans of the crown prince and Jay. Catherine found someone coming to rescue and hurriedly shouted for help!
It was past midnight and the streets were deserted.
Victor has good skills and there is no pressure in one-on-one. Seeing that something was wrong, the groom hurriedly ran away. Vivian would not let him go. She knocked him down with one kick and then walked to Catherine to comfort her.
"Princess, you must be Princess Vivian!" The maid had already escaped, and Catherine covered the injured part and shivered in fear.
"Yes, breathe slowly, it's okay."
"I, I'm so scared, wuwuwu!"
Catherine had been slashed by a sword when she used her hand to stop the drunkard, and now the wound was bleeding. Vivian took out a handkerchief from her pocket and tied it on her to prevent her from fainting due to excessive blood loss.
Victor trampled the drunkard under his feet. Jay was worried that the matter would be exposed, so he hurriedly sent two people out of the yellow house, and two people also walked out of the red house on the other side.
Vivian took off her hat, revealing her long white hair and blue eyes, which were the appearance symbols of the northern Klein family.
She smiled and said to Catherine: "It seems there are a lot of spectators tonight. On the left is the Crown Prince and on the right is Young Master Melvis. I just don't know who the murderer is?"
"Crown Prince?!" Catherine trembled even more when she heard the word "Crown Prince". Did he really want to kill herself? Just because she investigated Eunice's past?
How ridiculous!
Vivian's voice was neither loud nor quiet. People on both sides just heard it, their expressions stiffened, and then they stopped.
Even if they don't care about Miss Catherine's death, the heir and daughter-in-law of the Northern Duke have a distinguished status. If something happens at the same time, the cunning and cunning Duke of the North may make a big fuss and even launch a rebellion!
People on both sides did not approach, but returned to the room to report to the owner. Vivian asked Victor to tie up the murderer, then helped Catherine get into the carriage and drove her back.
Arriving at the gate of the Marquis Mansion ten minutes later, Catherine invited Vivian and her brother to rest at home and asked her to thank her.
Vivian refused on the grounds that it was too late, but the two murderers stayed. How to deal with it later was none of her business.
Jay was very discreet and the two murderers had never seen him. Every time he committed evil, he asked his subordinates to contact the person and put on a mask to ensure that they would not be recognized.
How did Vivian Klein know the Crown Prince was nearby?
If Catherine really died, he would probably be caught and beheaded by the Crown Prince before he could pin the blame on her. But it doesn't look like she was helping, otherwise she wouldn't have said her name?
what to do? Will aunt be angry if the mission fails?
Jay bit his finger uneasily, and the crown prince on the other side was very angry. Ever since he became an adult, he has never been plotted against like this!
Vivian Klein, Victor Klein, wait and see, I will definitely pull out all your claws!
The next morning, before Vivian woke up, Catherine's mother and sister came to the Winter Palace in a carriage to say thank you. I brought three boxes of thank-you gifts, including jewelry, cosmetics, and high-end tea.
Vivian talked with them for a long time before sending them away. Before leaving, the Marquise hinted that they were willing to get along well with the north.
Due to political considerations, the two murderers last night were treated as drunkards. After all, with the Crown Prince on one side and the Queen on the other, neither of them could afford to offend.
Not long after the Marchioness left, the Crown Prince and Eunice came to visit. The two now go in and out together, and their relationship is very ambiguous.
Victor was shocked when he first saw Eunice because she had very beautiful brown eyes and looked just like the cat he had when he was a child.
In the original plot, Victor was obsessed with the heroine not only because she saw him killing someone, but also because he wanted to treat the heroine as a pet.
"It's almost time for lunch, why don't we talk after eating?"
Vivian didn't even eat breakfast in order to entertain the Marchioness. People's attention is easily distracted when they are hungry, and they can fall into traps if they are not careful, so be careful.
"Please, sir, please entertain us." The Crown Prince said solemnly.
The kitchen quickly delivers the food to the restaurant. The reserve wine paired with the tender lamb chops is indeed appetizing.
The four of them ate lunch quietly, and Eunice suspected that Vivian had either been reborn or traveled through time, otherwise she would not have been there last night. The most important thing now is whether she supports the crown prince or the second prince.
The northern area is vast, and although the number of people is smaller than that of the prosperous south, it has always been known for its barbarism. The men are tall and strong, and the women are stronger than those in other places.
Oh, I really wanted to slap my high school self to death.
After lunch, the four of them sat in the drawing room drinking tea. The knights and servants all rushed out. It was obvious that the topic they wanted to talk about was very private.
"Mr. Klein, how did you know where I was last night? Could it be that your daughter secretly sent someone to monitor me?!" The Crown Prince's eyes were sharp and he exuded a terrifying murderous aura.
Vivian gently put down the teacup and replied: "The Crown Prince has misunderstood. How dare I send someone to follow you, your honorable one? I just have a better memory."
"I don't have time to beat around the bush with you!"
"I saw those two knights when I went to the palace. As for the other two, the situation is similar."
"Why do you two siblings appear on the streets late at night?"
"Because I'm going back to the north in two days, I just wanted to take a look at the night view of the royal capital, that's all."
"you wanna die!"
The crown prince felt that he was being teased, so he drew his sword and threatened Vivian. I have to say that he was really sick!
She finally understood that the violent crown prince and the petty second prince were not as good as the overall situation-oriented Princess Elena.
"When I was in the north, I heard that the crown prince would kill people if they disagreed. It seems that it was not groundless." Vivian said that the crown prince pressed the sword to her neck, and blood quickly flowed out.
Eunice hurriedly hugged the Crown Prince's arm and explained to Vivian: "My lord, you misunderstood. The Crown Prince did not mean to hurt you."
"Then thank you for your noble hand, Your Highness."
"let's go!"
The crown prince was very dissatisfied with Vivian's attitude, but he couldn't really kill her, so he could only drag Eunice away angrily.
"What if he-" Victor couldn't help but say.
The Crown Prince is famous for being cruel and unkind. If he had really killed Vivian just now, his father would not avenge her. At most, he would exchange for greater benefits.
"Dear brother, if the crown prince dares to kill his daughter today, tomorrow the king will feel that he dares to kill the king, and the result is not worth the gain!"
No matter how noble the crown prince is, he cannot kill nobles arbitrarily, otherwise if other nobles unite, the royal family will be in danger.
"Why are you telling me this?"
"Because I don't want my brother to be a fool."
Victor muttered something softly, but Vivian didn't hear it clearly. She didn't sleep well last night, so she put down her tea cup and planned to take a nap.
The dim sunset dyed the bedroom red, and Vivian blinked several times before she could gradually see her surroundings clearly. It turned out that she took a nap until evening, no wonder she was so tired.
