Chapter 692 - Whom To Believe?

'Boom!'

"Touch her, and you die!!"

.

--silence--

The Gustav's all jumped back in shock, especially Gustav himself.

How could he not?

Just when he was about to touch Lucy, the loud noise cracked from the heavens and scared the living daylight out of him.

And even though he didn't know what it was, the sound instinctively made him jump back in fear.

For heaven's sake, he almost had a heart attack from it all.

It was like a ghost he just popped out of nowhere in an attempt to terrify him to death.

He clutched his heart in fear and when the sound broke out, and funny enough... he took on a 's.h.a.ggy-s...o...b.. Doo' frightened look, as he stood on one leg with his hands hovering in the air.

In fact, he wasn't the only one who took on a bizarre pose.

Elvira quickly grabbed a fork while making a karate pose, while her son hid behind her instead.

'You go ahead and die first mom.'

And even though Elvira had never practiced Karate before, when people got scared, they would end up making some crazy poses.

Of course the girls dropped to the ground and kept their heads low in fear, as their bodies trembled uncontrollably.

What the h.e.l.l was that?

For that brief second, their minds seemed to think of a million things at once.

But before they could think any further, they heard someone else's voice.

And in a blink of an eye, several men who wore green outfits and had green coloured painted faces, popped out of nowhere and surrounded them with strange black sticks.

Again, could someone tell them what the h.e.l.l was going on?

A complex mix of feelings spread out through their hearts, as they observed the situation.

Were these people spies or a.s.sa.s.sins sent to kill Lucy?

No!

If that was the case, then why would they threaten them not to touch her?

For sure, while everyone's heart was now in turmoil... Lucy on the other hand, blinked her eyes in confusion too before finally understanding the situation.

Sure enough!

These were all her personal bodyguards.

But didn't they say that she would have absolute privacy with her family?

Lucy couldn't help but smile helplessly at the situation.

How could they leave her alone with people who could possibly threaten her?

When Landon mentioned privacy, he meant that he would withdraw his royal guards from the scene.

But Lucy's private security would always be there to watch over her no matter what.

Who knew if these people would poison her instead?

Lucy calmly looked at her old family and smiled coldly.

How naive!

.

"Touch her, and you die!!"

Hader, who was the Chief of Lucy's security was currently pointing his gun at Gustav.

He had watched everything from the bushes and had tried to restrain himself when he saw them force Lucy to kneel.

F**king b.a.s.t.a.r.ds!

Who did they think they were?

He wanted to make a move earlier on, but he remembered Landon's instructions to let her fight her battles for herself.

He was told to only reveal himself if they were about to lay a hand on her.

And in truth, he was glad that he followed Landon's instructions.

Because due to that, he got to see a very Badd**s side of Lucy.

d.a.m.n, she was awesome!

He just never expected that she would have that side within her.

After all, before today, he always felt like Lucy was just too soft and too kind.

She just looked like the type who would really forgive an enemy.

But some enemies need to be dealt with heavily, or else they would just take her for granted.

So seeing the little lady who he had protected for the last 3 and a half years grow up so fast, made him almost clap loudly for her.

Bravo princess!

Of course he wasn't the only one who felt like that since the entire team had deep love and respect for Lucy.

Hader quickly took out his Walkie talkie while still pointing his gun at Gustav.

"This is Princess Team 1 reporting directly to his majesty.

The situation has been handled.

Over."

.

The Gustav's quickly came back to their senses and looked at Lucy viciously.

"You unfilial child!

You set us up!

Do you know what you have done?

Do you know what this will cost me?

You!... You!... You!!!" Gustav roared while painting angrily.

He was so red from rage that he looked as if he had been sunburned hard.

Elvira and her son were the same too.

"I knew that you were always evil within.

What?

Now that you're wealthy, you want to kick us out and not even give us a share of it all?

Do you think that we let you eat, sleep and live with us all those years for free?

If you think that we will go back empty-handed, then dream on!!!!"

"Little sister, I'm utterly disappointed in you.

As your elder brother, I'm advising you to tell your men to stop glaring at us like this.

Do you want to kill us and bury us here where no one will find us?

Little sister, I'm disappointed by how wicked your heart had grown throughout the years."

Of course, Debbie and Praila hastily rose from the ground and also aired out their grievances too.

"You good-for-nothing seductress!

You planned it all along didn't you!!!

You knew that his majesty Landon would fancy me, so you brought your men here to give his majesty a bad impression on us right?"

"Why the h.e.l.l are you so stingy?

Why would you set us up just so that you can enjoy all this wealth alone?

All I'm asking is to share your finance with you, and you've already become a scheming b**ch!"

Lucy just looked at the jumping zoo animals before her and ma.s.saged her temples.

"Enough!

You all are giving me a headache.

Now you either shut up on your own, or I'll have my men a.s.sist you in it."

"Hmph!

Little sister, we haven't lost yet." Praila said angrily.

"That's right sister, these are your men.

So it's obvious that whatever you say, they will support you.

In other words, we will just have to wait and see who his majesty will believe."

"Alright, I'll play your little game.

Let's wait then." Lucy said while sitting in the chair which her men had brought for her.

And after a minute, everyone heard the garden gate open from a distance.

His Majesty was here.

The Gustav's sneered at Lucy while quickly putting on their most pitiful expressions.

The girls didn't believe for one second that Landon would be able to resist a damsel in distress.

Even the famous Demi-G.o.d Hercules in the Baymardian tales fell for Megara who was a damsel in distress.

He even acted stupidly just to save her from a blue river guardian.

And the Demi-G.o.d film for her weak act.

So what more of a Mortal?

'Hmph!

Just you wait, dear sister!'
