Chapter 457 I Lied To You
Chapter 457 I lied to you
After Louis finished talking with Martha, it was already half past nine in the morning.
After telling Martha to rest well, he turned and left the ward.
At the door of the ward, the man's eyes darkened, and he looked slightly sideways at the guards
guarding the door of the ward.
"Keep an eye on this place, no one is allowed to come in."
"Yes."
Several guards bowed their heads slightly and responded respectfully.
Louis took two steps forward and stopped just a few feet away from the hospital room door, beckoning
for a trusted confidant to approach him. The confidant walked over solemnly and stopped respectfully
in front of Louis.
"My Lord."
"Martha's safety is very important now. You must make sure that this place is well-guarded," Louis said
coolly as he gazed at the closed hospital door with concern for Martha's safety still weighing heavily on
his mind.
Martha's plan was perfect, but he knew that even a slight mistake could put her life in danger.
"Yes, I will take care of it," replied the confidant seriously. He knew that there must be more orders from
his lord than just this one so he didn't leave immediately after receiving instructions from Louis.
The next second, Louis' cold voice sounded again.
"In addition, the news of Martha waking up cannot be spread. You block the news, and then announce
to the public that Martha is in poor condition and has been in a coma."
"Yes, this subordinate will do it now."
The confidant nodded solemnly, turned and left the door of the ward.
Having followed Louis for several years now, he understood that when his lord gave such orders, there
must be something big going on behind-the-scenes; they didn't need to know what was happening as
long as they carried out their tasks successfully according to their master's wishes.
Louis, who stayed in place, watched the figure of his confidant slowly go away, his thin lips tightly
pursed into a line.
He knew that the plan this time would not go too smoothly, but... he could only do this now.
After he regained his senses, he turned around and left the hospital quickly.
In order for things to go smoothly, King Ducasse would also play an important role in helping them
achieve success..
Although Martha rejected King Ducasse in the ward not long ago, after so many years of getting along
with him, Louis knew that King Ducasse was a soft-hearted person.
He would definitely help them with this favor.
Half an hour later, Louis came to the royal palace.
He and King Ducasse were good friends who grew up, so he was naturally familiar with the layout of
the royal palace.
After he failed to find King Ducasse in King Ducasse's bedroom, he went straight to the northeast of the
royal palace - the archery range.
Since childhood, whenever King Ducasse was unhappy, he stayed in the archery range and vent his
annoyance with absolute strength.
Today was no exception.
Sure enough, when Louis walked to the archery range, he saw a familiar figure inside.
At this time King Ducasse was standing at the archery place, taking the arrow neatly, and shooting the
arrow.
"Whoosh!" The arrow that he shot hit bull's-eye once again.
Louis clapped his hands lightly, and an indifferent voice sounded behind King Ducasse.
"As expected of a nobleman. Even if you haven't practiced for so long, you can still hit bull's-eye with
ease."
Hearing this, King Ducasse pursed his thin lips tightly and did not answer.
As early as when he left the Loyal Hospital, he had guessed that Louis would definitely come here.
When he heard footsteps behind him just now, he knew it was Louis.
Louis didn't care about Ducasse's silence and instead looked sideways at the guard standing by the
door before saying coolly, "Old rules."
"Yes."
The guard responded respectfully, turned and left the door.
Soon, the guard walked towards Louis with a pair of bows and arrows, offering them respectfully.
Louis took the bow and arrow brought by the guard, and said calmly, "Go down."
The guard responded, and left the inner room of the archery range knowingly.
Louis didn't talk to King Ducasse anymore, but walked to a place next to King Ducasse, stretched out
his bow and fired an arrow.
He deliberately shot the arrow intentionally off target, and then shot a few more arrows without hitting
bull's-eye.
After a while, he put down his bow and leaned against nearby table where bows were kept while
speaking, "It has been a long time since I last shot an arrow; and I am not as good as I used to be."
When King Ducasse heard this, his golden eyes flickered slightly, and he continued to shoot without
saying a word.
He had been friends with Louis for so many years, so he naturally knew that the latter's archery was
not like this.
He also understood that the other party was creating an opportunity to talk to him, but that didn't mean
he had to strike up a conversation.
The man pursed his lips, and shot the arrows in his hand one after another, without any intention of
speaking.
Louis, who was standing next to him, turned around and looked at the man beside him fixedly, with
apology in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, Ducasse, I do know the truth of the matter, I lied to you."
"I admit that what Martha said is true, but I did it for a reason, and there is really no other way."
Louis stopped speaking and silence reigned over again.novelbin
King Ducasse didn't respond, but just shot the arrow in his hand one by one.
After waiting for a while, Louis still didn't hear any words from the man beside him. His eyes darkened.
After he pondered for a while, the indifferent voice sounded again in the archery range--
After pondering for a while, his indifferent voice sounded again in the archery range - "I was wrong to
do this thing, but our situation is not good. So I hope you can understand us."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ducasse's sarcastic voice followed - "Why should I understand you?"
