Chapter 261 In the end, Poliana and Lucius the First arrived at their destination shortly after the sunset. They entered the village right before the entrance closed for the night. The two headed straight to the town inn and thankfully, there were empty rooms available. The innkeeper, who thought she wasn’t going to get any guests that day, greeted Poliana and the emperor happily. But when she noticed the appearances of the two, she seemed shocked and confused. ‘Hmm… Is he a gold digger who seduced…-

Book 4. Story 20. If you make trouble, I will take care of it Chapter 259 Poliana and Lucius the First grabbed their things from the inn. It was getting late and the nearest town did not have an inn. This meant that they would have to travel to a farther village and if they wanted to get there before the sunset, they had to move fast. The sun set fast in the mountainous areas. The villages in the area built walls around themselves for protection against wild animals as well as strangers. The entrance…

“So?” “Master Frau is a family member of our landlord, so you can't do this…” Poliana glared at the villager, making him flinch. She said to him, “Duke Sneke and his family are no more. They will not be returning here. If you are so worried about this man being related to your former landlord, then I will become your new landlord.” She looked around, and the villagers didn't have to question whether she could do this. It was clear, based on her behavior and the way she spoke, that Poliana…

Chapter 257 Poliana realized the big and stupid mistake she made. The moment Frau revealed that he was after her money, she should’ve walked away from him. She should’ve known that he had an ulterior motive. Even if she didn’t suspect this, she should’ve never accepted him. He was clearly unethical and rude, so she should’ve dumped him. Why? Why did she go on like she did? Why did she believe him? Why did she trust him? Why did she act so foolishly? Poliana thought he was a naïve innocent…

Chapter 256 The left side of her lips jerked in shock and anger. She was wealthier than most small kingdom’s rulers used to be. She had the best piece of land on the continent. Her position as the head of the Second Division was the highest any knight would hope to achieve in his life. She was still beloved and trusted by the emperor of this entire kingdom. Poliana had everything. There were many in this world who envied her. But of all the things she treasured in her life, the one that was most…

Chapter 255 The town they arrived at was a small rural one in the rough Acreian mountain. Poliana never imagined the real reason why she was brought here; she just looked around the area and enjoyed the small village. Its landlord, Duke Sneke, was currently arrested and in jail, but the town was still running as usual. It was not overly big or small; it was an average-sized village and its main industry seemed to be hunting. There was a well-built inn often used by the hungry, which was fortunate. This…

Chapter 254 It was rumored that things were going well between Sir Ainno and Cekel. They became closer thanks to frequent conversations. Both Sir Ainno and Cekel’s marriage and Poliana and Frau’s marriage involved two people whose social statuses did not match.

Chapter 253 The knights and the emperor made sure Poliana didn’t know about their plan. The emperor extended Poliana’s vacation on purpose. When she protested, the emperor told her that her time off was a form of punishment. He told her never to risk her life again, and she disobeyed him. Poliana nodded in understanding. Poliana was overjoyed to see her adopted brothers Sir Donau and Sir Howe. She hugged them tightly. They wrote to each other often, but it was not the same as seeing them in person.…

Chapter 252 One of the knights suddenly asked, “But what if Marquess Winter already knew about the existence of Frau’s bastard? Or what if she still wants to marry him even after we tell her?” Sir Donau replied indignantly, “My adopted sister would never do such a thing!” Sir Howe nodded, “That’s right! Pol would never be that stupid!” Lucius the First agreed with the brothers. He has never been this angry in his life. He wouldn’t have been as angry as right now even if Duke Luzo…
