Dorf Castle- Pierre Weber's Residence

When Pierre saw his wife walking towards him, he immediately changed his expression and smiled at her. How could he show her the murderous aura that he just showed his right-hand man when the latter told him that Zhuo Jingren and Lily will stay for about another week or two. How could he allow those two to stay near the Duke and possibly ruin his plans?

"Hey, you look beautiful today." Pierre raised his head to meet his wife's kiss.

"Thank you," Mikaela said before she sat on the Earl's lap. "Are you going to stay in your office again? Look at you… it seems that you have lost a lot of weight."

Pierre smiled in response. He shook his head. Who wouldn't lose weight? With Zhou Jingren's people breathing behind his back, Pierre was forced to stop and limit his interaction with his connections in the black market. As insulting as it may seem, a peasant like Zhou Jingren was actually more influential than him when it comes to the black market. He was already a known figure in the East. Now… Zhou Jingren was trying to create a name in the west too.

With Lily and an unknown Mafia's backing, Zhou Jingren's influence is growing day by day. That is something that he almost could not accept. Of course, he knows that he was helpless about this. How could he act against that man and risk suspicion? "There's a lot of problems at the airport lately. You don't have to be worried about me."

"But… it's been days." Mikaela frowned. "Is father giving you a hard time? Was it because of Lily?" As the days passed, Mikaela thought that Lily's actions against Pierre were cruel. How could she embarrass Pierre in front of his father and mother? Her husband is a very hardworking man! Yet, Lily emphasized that Pierre was petty the moment she arrived?

As a businesswoman, Lily should have known that Pierre was only concerned about his business.

"What? No…" Pierre laughed. "Of course not." He shook his head. "But now that you mentioned it… I tried to set up a meeting with the Duke earlier…. But he asked his assistant to decline. Do you think… Do you think he is avoiding me? Was it possible that he was mad at me about the dress?"

"No. I don't think father is that kind of man." She avoided her gaze. Her father may not be that kind of man, but she doesn't know what kind of lies Lily fed her father. Mikaela and even Leandro saw how much their father favors Lily and even her husband, Zhou Jingren. Moreover, they have also witnessed what kind of tongue Lily had. She is very good at manipulating her words, making it look like she was the victim when in fact she was the one calling people dumb.

"Then… don't worry about it. He must have been busy." Pierre said. "Eliza and Levi's birthday will be in three days?"

"Four days." She smiled. "I already prepared the gifts for them. You don't have to worry about it.

"Good. I always knew I could rely on you when it comes to these things." He smiled and kissed his wife's temple. "Well, then… I still have things to discuss with my assistant. You should go ahead and sleep first."

Mikaela smiled. "Alright." She nodded and gave her husband another kiss before leaving the room.

When Pierre saw his wife leave, his face instantly turned grim. He eyed the coffee that Mikaela gave him before a sneer escaped his lips. "Asked everyone to be very careful. I believe that Lily is a very smart woman. She might figure out that we are trying to stage a coup d'etat soon." He gritted his teeth. Because of Zhou Jingren and Lily's presence, they have to change their plans and do the coup as soon as possible.

Seeing how the Duke seemed to like Lily and Zhou Jingren, Pierre feared that Duke Phil would soon make Lily the heir to his throne. After all, Lily is clearly more intelligent and talented than Leandro or any other children that the Duke had.

"Master…"

"What is it?"

"I — I am just a little nervous about the initial plan. Killing the prime minister is a big act of — "

"I know what I'm doing!" he said. He already had everyone around him thinking that he would kill the Prime minister. However, that Is not going to happen. On the day of the twin's birthday, Pierre was planning to sacrifice his wife for his cause.

He was planning to kill Mikaela.

Then he would make it seem as if it was the Duke who mistakenly killed his own daughter when he tried to target Pierre. Isn't that what everyone needed to pity him? Pierre mused.

Once the world will know that the Duke killed his own daughter in an assassination attempt, Pierre was sure that not just the people in Luxembourg, but the people in the whole EU will support his cause. Everyone will agree to demolish the Grand Ducal and change the type of government.

A smile slithered on his face.

Mikaela had been a dutiful wife and mother to their children. However, Pierre believed that her death is necessary to instigate a revolution. Everyone was born with a purpose, and he believed that Mikaela's purpose was to change this country. The people will know Mikaela as the woman who changed a country.

"Tell the Knight commander to be very careful. Do not give the Duke some poison in the next few days. Rather… stop giving Lead to everyone's food. Tell him to observe and listen. Be very careful around Lily and Zhou Jingren. I believe they are smart enough to know that something is wrong with him… you know what? Just tell him to avoid Lily and Zhou Jingren. Do not — and I mean… never talk to them." He sighed. "That knight commander is pretty useful, but he is a little dumb. I am sure that one conversation with someone like Lily who is pretty good with words will reveal that he had been one of my subordinates for years now."
