While Lynette warned Zen of his action, Krista Dragoon dropped her papers down and stood up.
"So you only decided to come now?"
Krista Dragoon said slowly and held a little bit of disappointment when Zen only showed up at this time.
Zen kept quiet and shrugged his shoulders.
There was no way he was going to tell Krista Dragoon that he was busying fucking with Angela and filling her cunt with his love and delayed his arrival time.
Krista Dragoon narrowed her gaze when she saw him being overly suspicious. Normally, Zen would have replied cheekily or given her some excuse but staying silent was a rare occurrence.
Thus, Krista Dragoon walked forward and stared at Zen deeply in the eyes.
Zen swallowed nervously when he felt the intense gaze from her and tried to avoid looking at her.
Alas, that only made him more suspicious as Krista Dragoon walked around him before grabbing his clothes and sniffed on them slightly.
"A perfume that I remember… Angela huh," Krista Dragoon scoffed as she stepped away when she found out why he was late.
A recommendation letter that he kept showing deep concern about could be delayed because he wanted to enjoy some lovely time with his other woman.
Zen smiled bitterly as he wanted to explain, "It's not like that Krista. I-I actually wanted to come as soon as Angela relayed the information about the recommendation letter in your hand."
Meanwhile, Lynette stared at the two of them with a suspicious gaze.
'D-Don't tell me Princess Krista Dragoon and this person… have a romantic relationship?' Lynette exclaimed inwardly as she saw them arguing but at the same time, not really arguing.
After all, she saw many people in the imperial court arguing with each other and their tone of speech was different from what Krista Dragoon and Zen had.
"Krista, listen to me, I'm a gentleman and can't possibly refuse a lady's request," Zen said as he quickly chased after Krista Dragoon around the room.
"Yes, you listen to every lady except mine unless I have to shamelessly bug you until you agree to ally with me," Krista Dragoon snorted as she refused to look at him.
Zen almost had a headache on her behavior and wondered when she changed into a jealous woman.
She was never like this before and was always calm in everything until they fucked long and hard.
'Do women change after losing their purity?' Zen pondered inwardly as he gave up chasing after Krista Dragoon and sat on the chair.
"What do I have to do to earn your forgiveness, Krista?" Zen asked softly as he grabbed a cup that Krista Dragoon was drinking from.
Afterward, he started taking a few sips from it, shocking Lynette to the core as that was an indirect kiss in her mind.
"What are you doing?" Lynette shouted as she quickly walked forward and snatched the cup away from Zen.
Zen raised his eyebrow in surprise and stared at Lynette with a confused expression, "Obviously, I'm drinking some tea from the cup. What do you think I would be doing to a cup?"
What could she be thinking he would be doing with a cup?
Zen couldn't understand her reaction and tried to grab the cup back but Lynette retreated and held the cup tightly in her hand.
"This is Princess Krista Dragoon's cup and she has drunk it. How could you even possibly put your filthy mouth on the cup," Lynette shouted in anger as she wiped the area of the cup where Zen placed his mouth on.
Krista Dragoon started covering her mouth as she giggled at Lynette's words that caused Zen to become speechless.
"What filthy mouth are you talking about?" Zen shouted in response and continued. "Don't you know a certain person that you highly respect enjoys my saliva deeply?"
Krista Dragoon's expression darkened as she coughed slightly to warn Zen from exposing their relationship.
Although she trusted Lynette fully, she didn't want anyone else to know their relationship yet due to the amount of stress and pressure she had from the imperial court.
Zen also realized his impulsive behavior almost ruined her plan as he kept quiet but what's done is already done.
Lynette's suspicions were basically confirmed with Zen's words even if he didn't finish his sentence.
However, as a dutiful maid that cared about her master's opinion more, she didn't say anything and kept quiet, remaining ignorant about this matter.
"Anyway, you only came here for the recommendation letter and nothing else right?" Krista Dragoon cleared her throat softly and asked Zen.
Zen pondered for a while before answering, "Yes and no. I only intended to come to get the recommendation letter originally but I have other information to relay to you."
And he continued, "How many noble families have you managed to convince to be on your side?"
"At the moment, only the Kaiso family is worthy of mention on our side. The other noble families that sided with me are either low-ranked noble or have lost influence from the empress so they could only come to me." Krista Dragoon replied with a defeated sigh.
She was still unable to counter the empress's influence among other noble families and if this continued, her uprising might fail entirely.
Zen smiled briefly as he snatched the cup away from Lynette when she was distracted by Krista Dragoon.
Afterward, he started taking multiple sips at the area that Lynette meticulously cleaned purposely.
Lynette was irritated as she tried to make a move but Krista Dragoon halted her movement and shook her head.
"Let him since it's clear that he got some valuable information for acting this haughtily." Krista Dragoon said as she sat on the couch whereas Lynette nodded and stood by the side.
"You really do know me well." Zen chuckled softly.
"Given your character, it's pretty obvious," Krista Dragoon snorted and crossed her legs, revealing some of her skins for Zen to see.
Zen smiled and said, "What if I told you… I would soon have an audience with the Camellia family's patriarch?"
