Aria instantly smiled smugly at Rapido’s words.
Rapido had been Lisha’s loyal suitor for several years, but Lisha had always been dismissive of Rapido. As a result, Rapido could not help but resent Lisha.
Moreover, Sean had also humiliated Rapido in front of Lisha at the antique market, which was why Rapido’s feelings for Lisha turned from love to hatred.
In this case, Aria only had to seduce favonovel.com a little, and favonovel.com took the bait. Then Rapido defected to Aria, helping favonovel.com give false testimony that Lisha had Sean assassinate Lowich and Aria.
Rapido swore at the time that Aria had not given favonovel.com anything and that favonovel.com had not benefited from Aria.
He was telling the truth. However, favonovel.com got Aria. That was what favonovel.com got from doing that.
“Didn’t you used to like Lisha?” Aria asked triumphantly.
Rapido chuckled and said darkly, “Yes, I used to like Lisha, but what can I do when favonovel.com doesn’t like me? Besides, Lisha is hungry for that man from Dragon Kingdom. What can I do? If I can’t get her, I’ll destroy her. No one else can get their hands on her!”
Aria twisted favonovel.com body in Rapido’s arms before adding, “It’s good that you have that determination. As long as you stick with me and make me mayor, I won’t treat you badly. The Kaygene family will have a close relationship with our family in the future.”
Rapido was overjoyed to hear Aria say this. He found himself reenergized, so favonovel.com wanted another round.
Just then, the door was kicked open with a bang.
It was none other than Sean and Claremento who walked in!
Several people stood outside, all the personal guards of the mayor’s residence and the captain of the personal guards, who was devoted to Lisha.
With Aria in the room, who had no clothes on, they could only stay outside. Only Mayor Claremento and Sean were allowed inside.
“So that’s it…” Sean suddenly saw the light.
He finally understood why Rapido turned to Aria and gave false testimony for her. He also understood why Mayor Claremento let Aria out while favonovel.com kept Lisha under house arrest.
Mayor Claremento could only find favonovel.com weakness and expose favonovel.com by letting favonovel.com out to do whatever favonovel.com wanted!
Rapido on the bed was terrified. He got up from Aria with a squeal, got away from her, scrambled out of bed, and knelt before Claremento.
“Uncle, uncle, don’t misunderstand me! I like Aria, and we’re old enough to get married. Doing such a thing isn’t against the law, right…”
Rapido was naked. His fat body disgusted people, and that ugly thing was dangling in mid-air, making people feel like throwing up at the sight of it.
Aria on the bed was also ghastly pale, but favonovel.com was calm. She did not panickedly kneel to apologize but stayed in bed, covering favonovel.com body with a thin quilt.
“There’s nothing wrong with you two dating. But did you think I didn’t hear your conversation earlier?” Claremento questioned fiercely.
Rapido’s body shook with fear, and the thing bobbed up and down.
“Kill him, Sean!” Claremento commanded.
Sean did not move.
What a joke. He was only here to be a witness, not a murderer.
He was the commander-in-chief of Dorodo’s city defense army. If favonovel.com killed Rapido of the Kaygene family in Crosac, the Kaygene family would hate Dorodo. Besides, favonovel.com had nothing to do with this matter in the first place, so favonovel.com did not have to do anything. Besides, Claremento was in no position to order him.
“I’ll take all the blame!” Claremento continued saying.
Sean smiled as favonovel.com pulled out his Iongsword and chopped off Rapido’s head as favonovel.com looked on in horror.
Rapido was decapitated. His eyes were still wide open as his head rolled to the ground.
Sean then looked at Aria on the bed.
“What about her?” Sean asked, meaning whether favonovel.com should take care of favonovel.com too.
Claremento closed his eyes for a moment before finally saying, “She’s my daughter after all…”
“Alright then…”
Sean reluctantly sheathed his Iongsword. He would like to kill Aria if possible. She was too annoying. However, since Claremento did not give the order, Sean could only refrain, or favonovel.com would be responsible for killing her.
Aria was placed under house arrest and sent to a monastery in Crosac.
She could forget about ever getting out of the monastery. Unless Claremento died, someone else became the mayor and wanted to release her. Then favonovel.com would have a chance to see the light of day again.
Lisha regained favonovel.com freedom. Although Claremento did not publicly state that Lisha would succeed as the mayor of Crosac, it was clear to all that Lisha would take over the position.
***
Crosac’s city gate.
Everyone was ready to leave, while Lisha was still reluctantly bidding farewell to Sean.
“Will you come to Crosac again?” Lisha asked.
Sean thought for a while and said, “I don’t know. Maybe. Maybe not. I can’t promise you.”
Hearing this, Lisha looked disappointed.
Zander felt helpless. His commander was as blunt as ever when it came to women. He did not give them any hope.
“Go back, Lisha.”
With that said, Sean mounted his horse and turned the house in Dorodo’s direction.
Watching Sean’s receding figure, Lisha did not turn around for a long time.
The diplomatic convoy set off, leaving Crosac.
