Chapter 1204: The Queen’s God
This scene was seen by many people, and they looked at Joshua with gloating eyes. A few people sighed with complicated thoughts, wondering what the Stoke family was thinking. They actually let Joshua attack Emily Jasper? Did they really think that such a valiant-looking young lady would like a naive type like Joshua? If Arthur came, it would be more sincere, and the success rate would be much higher.
Compared to Joshua’s despondent look, Emily Jasper was much calmer in everyone’s eyes. She was as heartless as she was when she said that. After cruelly rejecting a man’s sincere love, she was still able to continue chatting and laughing with others at the banquet.
"As expected of you. You’re playing with the young heart." Lei Qie teased Si Huang in a strange tone.
Si Huang sipped the wine in his glass," If I really wanted to play with him, would he still be standing here?"
Lei Qie’s gaze lingered on her lips for a second, and then he was pierced by Si Huang’s gaze. He did not pretend to be calm and muttered in a low voice," You’re not human."
Si Huang smiled faintly," When my patience runs out, I will indeed not be human."
Ivana, who was standing at the side, reached out her hand and caught the wine glass that she had put down. They had a tacit understanding.
Lei Qie came back to his senses and lowered his voice. Under the cover of the music, only Si Huang and the others could hear him." I already know why Stoke asked Joshua to attend the banquet."
Si Huang used his eyes to signal him to continue.
Lei Qie said," Marriage is just a rumor, but it doesn’t affect the reality. If Joshua has the ability to charm you, Miss Jasper." Lei Qie was worried that Phoenix Si’s patience would run out and he would see what kind of person he was, so he didn’t wait for Phoenix Si to respond and immediately went on to the main point." This kind of rumor is to make the opponent panic and do something impulsive, such as venting their anger on Joshua or kidnapping Joshua. Whether Mephistopheles, Pierce, or the other families would do it or not, Joshua would be killed this time, and then Stoke would have a ’legitimate’ reason to do it."
"Looks like Stoke is very confident." Si Huang narrowed his eyes.
Such a plan could be described as simple and crude. If one did not have absolute confidence in their own strength, they would definitely not have designed it in such a way.
"I think so too." Lei Qi was about to say something when he saw Simon and another beautiful woman walking over. His words turned into a provocative smile.
"What are you talking about? You don’t mind me joining, right?" Simon walked to the side and smiled at Si Huang." I forgot to mention that Lei Qie and I became friends because of a heartless guy. His name is K. I think you must know him."
Lei Qie grinned and thought,"The heartless guy you’re talking about is the one in front of you, but this evaluation is really good!"
Si Huang’s face was flawless, even though half of her face was covered by a mask. The corners of her mouth curled up into a smile." That’s not good. You have to know that K has told me about you. From the content he introduced you to me, he still has some conscience."
Lei Qie was speechless. This was the first time he had seen someone speak well of him and praise him, yet he was so calm and convincing.
Simon laughed." Alright, I take back my previous evaluation of him. He’s not that heartless. At least he has a little bit of conscience."
Lei Qie was speechless. Simon was so shrewd when he was doing business. How could you be so naive? You believed everything others said?
Lilith League, who had been ignored, suddenly interjected," Cousin has always been good."
Cousin?
Everyone present looked at this beautiful woman in surprise.
There was no doubt about Lilith’s beauty. Most importantly, her beauty was a little different from the traditional western beautiful women. She combined the advantages of both styles and easily won the favor of men.
She also had a pair of clear green eyes. When people first saw her, they would think that this young girl’s heart was beautiful and pure, and thus, they would have a good impression of her.
Si Huang looked at Simon." Your friend?"
Simon was stunned." Ah, yes. Her name is Lilith League." In fact, he was not very familiar with Lilith, but as a man, it was always difficult to resist the initiative of a beautiful woman, let alone a girl who looked quite good. However, he had never heard Lilith mention that K was her cousin.
