Chapter 264 264 Game In Game

"What do you have in mind for making this a city-wide spectacle? Your perspective is invaluable in ensuring the success of our ruse."

Monica leaned forward, her eyes shimmering with a hint of mischief. She laid out her proposal, "Here's what we could do. We'll stage an incident where Selina discovers Ni Yang with me in one of Castra City's high-end hotels. She'll catch us in a compromising position, and we'll engage in a heated argument, maybe even a fight, with her."

Selina raised an eyebrow, skeptical about Monica's plan, "And how exactly will that help us convince Fitch? Why would he be interested in such a trivial matter?"

Monica smiled slyly, "It's all about perception. We want Fitch and his network to believe that Selina is ready to sever ties with the Russell family, that our internal strife is threatening to expose family secrets. It's the kind of drama that could draw Fitch's attention."

Nexus saw the logic in Monica's plan. "It's about giving him a reason to believe that the Russel family is fractured and vulnerable. He'll see an opportunity to exploit our internal divisions."

Madeline was quick to respond, "It's a risky move, but it makes sense. If we can sell this story convincingly, Fitch will be more inclined to make a move against Selina. It's the distraction we need to lure him into the octopus monster's territory."

Nora added, "And we should also ensure that the news of this incident spreads beyond our family, making it a citywide spectacle."

Selina remained doubtful, believing there might be ulterior motives behind Monica's proposal. "I'm not entirely convinced of Monica's sincerity in all of this. What if she's using this opportunity to tarnish my reputation or damage my relationship with Ni Yang?"

Monica responded feigning reassuring tone, "Selina, I understand your concerns. But my goal is to protect our family. The risk I'm willing to take by being part of this act shows my commitment to the Russells. I'll play the role, but I promise not to overstep boundaries or harm our family's reputation."

Monica enthusiastically continued with the additional details of the plan, "Here's how we'll make it more convincing. After our staged fight, the next day, Selina will come to the Russell residence with the intention of confronting me about the incident. This is where Madeline will intervene, defending me and taking your side in the altercation."

Selina seemed intrigued by the development, "So, the three of us will get into a fierce battle, and I will ultimately lose. It's a risky move."noVe/lb-In

Nexus chimed in, "Exactly. We need to make it look like a genuine altercation. Your willingness to 'lose' the fight will be crucial."

Monica emphasized, "After the confrontation, you'll take it upon yourself to approach Fitch. You'll request to work with the Howard family to eliminate me. This will give Fitch the impression that you are ready to betray the Russells, and he'll see it as an opportunity to exploit our internal strife."

Selina looked skeptical but waited for the plan to unfold. "And what happens after that?" she said

Monica continued, "This will give Fitch a strong reason to pursue the Russells."

Nexus nodded in agreement, "It's a good strategy. Fitch will undoubtedly see the opportunity in Selina's betrayal and be inclined to act."

Madeline added, "We should ensure that this encounter is observed by other magical beings in the city. It will reinforce the illusion of our internal strife."

Selina hesitated, still unsure about Monica's intentions. "What guarantee do we have that Monica won't use this opportunity to her advantage just to have sex with Ni Yang and harm the family further?"

Monica responded earnestly, "Selina, you have my word that I won't cross the line. This is a show, and my loyalty is to our family, not to cause harm."

Selina argued again, "Monica, I understand that this plan requires boldness and sacrifice, but you've got the mind of a hunter. This plan fits your nature, and it doesn't come without personal gain. We all know that you've had your private desires for Ni Yang."

Monica paused for a moment, considering her words carefully before responding, "Selina, my intent was always to protect our family. And even if there's a personal element involved, it's irrelevant as long as it serves the greater purpose of this plan. The key is to convince Fitch."

Selina acknowledged the logic in Monica's words, "You're right; we need to ensure the success of this plan. I'm willing to accept such a stain on my honor. But Monica, you don't have to go all the way with Ni Yang because it's just part of the act. What's important is that Fitch thinks it's real."

Monica outwardly agreed with Selina's proposal, "I understand your concerns, Selina. I'll stick to the plan and won't let personal feelings interfere. As long as Fitch believes in the deception, that's all that matters."

Nexus chimed in, "We will have safeguards in place to protect you and ensure this act remains controlled."

Monica nodded, "You have my word, Selina. Our family's well-being is my top priority."

But Monica had her own agenda, and as she outwardly agreed to Selina's proposal, her mind raced with personal desires. She knew that her position would be strengthened if Ni Yang spent the night in her bed.

She knew that, as part of the plan, she would share a bed with Ni Yang to make the act convincing. She couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation about the prospect, knowing that this opportunity could be used to her advantage.

Nexus assured Selina, "We will closely monitor the situation and ensure that no real harm befalls you. Our main objective is to stage a convincing act to lure Fitch."

Madeline nodded in agreement, "We'll work together to make this plan successful, Selina. You have my word, and I'll personally oversee the execution to minimize any risks."

With the combined reassurances of Monica and her family, Selina slowly began to accept the idea, though she couldn't help but maintain a degree of suspicion. "All right, I'm in. But Monica, if I sense any betrayal or hidden agenda on your part, you'll face the consequences."

Monica nodded but in her head she knew her plan was working, "I understand, Selina. I'm here to support my family and protect you from external threats, not to cause harm. You can trust me."

Nexus smiled, "Now that we have a plan in place, let's ensure that the performance is convincing. The success of our mission depends on it."

With a clear strategy in mind, the Russell family set out to prepare for the grand act. They knew that the more convincing their performance, the greater the chances of luring Fitch into their carefully laid trap. The stakes were high, and their citywide spectacle was about to unfold.

Nexus bid farewell to the Russells, stating, "I will contact Ni Yang and ensure he collaborates with Monica and Selina to complete this drama. The success of our mission relies on its execution." With that, he exited the garden, leaving the family to continue their conversation about the plan.

As he exited the garden, Selina and Madeline continued their conversation, discussing the plan that had been meticulously outlined.
