Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 685: If you don’t want to die, leave immediately...

Chapter 685: Chapter 685: If you don’t want to die, leave immediately...

A few hours later, with everyone eagerly awaiting, the sun slowly rose from the horizon.

Bella Sutton opened her eyes and immediately sent for Kuhn.

Seeing Kuhn’s arrival, Bella Sutton impatiently asked, "Kuhn, when do you plan to open the king’s tomb? Do you need to prepare anything?"

Kuhn looked at Bella Sutton and said calmly, "The king’s tomb can be opened at any time, no need to prepare anything."

"That’s good." Bella Sutton smiled with delight, "Then let’s depart immediately."

Saying this, Bella Sutton began to walk out of the palace.

"Wait." Kuhn called out to Bella Sutton and slowly said, "Although no special preparation is needed, opening the king’s tomb is a big event requiring all the dignitaries of Whitehill to be present."

Bella Sutton, unbothered, looked at the guard beside her, "Relay my orders: have all the palace officials come to the palace immediately, no excuses allowed!"

"Yes!" The guard responded, received the order, and left.

Half an hour later, all the dignitaries of Whitehill gathered in the palace’s council hall.

Bella Sutton stood in the main seat, looking down at all the palace dignitaries, speaking excitedly, "Everyone, I called you here today to join me in opening the treasure of Whitehill. The treasure has been hidden in the king’s tomb for years. Once it’s revealed, I will rejuvenate Whitehill. With the treasure, Whitehill’s economy will rise to a new level and reach out to the world."

"At that time, it will be more prosperous and powerful than the Whitehill of the past."

Bella Sutton couldn’t contain her excitement.

She had planned and endured for so long, now that revenge was near, how could she not be excited?

Gathering all the palace officials in one place, even without Kuhn’s suggestion, she would have done it.

Because only this way, once she retrieved the treasure, her brother’s men could slaughter them all cleanly, making Whitehill vanish from the world once and for all.

Today, she would change this place drastically, for the moment the treasure is uncovered, Whitehill shall fall...

Bella Sutton, with all the palace dignitaries and all available guards, followed Kuhn in grand procession into the northern tribe, preparing to open the tomb and extract the treasure.

As they passed through the forest of the northern tribe, Kuhn, with his cold, emotionless eyes, glanced faintly at the masked men hiding in the woods.

His thin, pale lips curled slightly into a mocking smile.

Ha, another batch coveting Whitehill’s treasure!

Over the years, countless people have come here to die, why don’t they learn their lesson?

The greed of humanity is truly terrifying, knowing they face death, yet they still willingly come to die.

Humph, since these people are eager to die, he won’t mind killing a few more to offer to the spirits within the tomb.

Kuhn, oblivious to the small ghosts within the woods, continued toward the tomb, and suddenly noticed the woman beside Bella Sutton—Arnold.

Kuhn found Bella Sutton’s companion unfamiliar.

This woman wasn’t from within the palace, if she were, he would know her.

If he wasn’t mistaken, this woman only appeared beside the false princess this morning.

Kuhn frowned with suspicion.

Who is this woman?

Where did she come from?

Is she an enemy or a friend?

Kuhn’s cold, probing gaze fell unrestrained on Arnold.

Feeling Kuhn’s gaze, Arnold looked in Kuhn’s direction.

Meeting Arnold’s eyes, Kuhn noticed: the woman that suddenly appeared had fox-like, elongated eyes, lively and cunning, yet exceptionally clean and pure at the same time.

People often say that eyes are the window to the soul, and through someone’s eyes, you can see through them.

No matter who this woman is, Kuhn believed: with such clean and pure eyes, she couldn’t be a cunning, deceitful person.

While Kuhn was gauging Arnold, Bella Sutton’s phone rang.

Upon hearing the phone ring, Bella Sutton immediately went aside to answer a call.

Using this opportunity, Kuhn immediately walked over.

He looked at Arnold, coldly asking, "Who are you?" 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Arnold looked up at the slender boy in white before her and spoke frankly, without a trace of flaw, "I am the queen’s maidservant."

Finishing her statement, seemingly expecting more questions from Kuhn, she continued, "I’m new and responsible for the queen’s safety!"

Kuhn looked at Arnold, who was small and slight but didn’t belittle her. Instead, he found this girl’s abilities quite remarkable.

He looked at Arnold and directly asked, "Whose person are you? The one sending you, what relation do they have with our princess?"

Arnold was shocked, unexpectedly the boy could guess her identity and knew she was sent by someone.

Not sensing any malice from the boy, Arnold immediately responded, "Regardless of whose person I am, I bear no malice towards Whitehill. I am simply commanded to protect the queen."

"Humph!" Kuhn coldly snorted, his brown eyes icy, "Protect the queen? Do you know the queen you’re protecting is the root of Whitehill’s destruction?"

Arnold: "..."

Seeing Arnold’s silence, Kuhn’s gaze grew colder, "Even knowing this, you still want to protect her!"

After speaking, Kuhn coldly looked at Arnold, then warned, "If you don’t wish to die, leave immediately!"

Arnold’s dark eyes narrowed, she protested, "Impossible!"

"In that case, wait for death." Kuhn said coldly, then turned and left.

Watching Kuhn’s departing figure, Arnold was speechless.

Who had she offended? She was only following orders, right.

Though she felt something was amiss, she had instructions from above to ensure the queen’s safety...

Wait!

Arnold’s fine yet handsome brow slightly furrowed. What did this boy say, that the queen is the root of Whitehill’s destruction?

What does this mean?

Could it be that the queen isn’t real?

This thought shocked Arnold.

However, simultaneously, she felt she had unraveled the truth.

Because regardless of her sixth sense or her interactions with the queen, Arnold felt only this explanation could clarify everything.

Arnold quickly looked up at Kuhn.
