Chapter 680: Little Prince

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Jiang An was a little surprised by Sophie’s judgment. Mary just didn’t appear, so how could she be sure that she had other motives?

“Is there any basis?” she asked.

Sophie sighed. “Mary never did anything useless. She knew you were at the party today, but she didn’t try to win you over. There must have been something more important.”

Jiang An did not know much about the royal family of Country F. Although the Zou family’s secret guards had power here, they had to be more careful when it came to other countries’ internal affairs.

Therefore, they didn’t receive much information. They were even more on the sidelines about the royal family. After all, the royal family of this country had real power. They only discovered some suppressed scandals.

Zou Bai didn’t know what kind of person Mary was. To outsiders, she was always gentle and amiable, caring towards the people.

“Is there anything we’ve overlooked now?” Jiang An began to use elimination. “There must be something more important to make her give up this banquet.” Zou Bai instantly understood. “The old king.”

Now that there was a substitute replacing the old king, if he said something biased, it would be beneficial in the future.

If Mary controlled this substitute, the situation would be very different.

Sophie was visibly flustered. “Then what should we do? She won’t want that substitute to pass the throne directly, will she? Do we still have a chance to find the crown prince?”

Jiang An quickly held her hand and comforted her. “No, that substitute can’t really replace the old king. If they could do that, they wouldn’t have tried to rope me in from the beginning.”

Sophie calmed down when she heard this. It was no wonder she was so anxious. If the throne really fell into the hands of someone else, it would not be a good thing for Country F.

Jiang An also realized that the current situation was not good, but they still had the initiative. There should still be a chance.

She was lost in thought. Sophie looked at her expectantly, while Zou Bai stepped back to stand beside her.

After a while, Jiang An smiled. “It seems that there’s a difference between the two princes now. I think Mary’s actions will speed up the rift between them. As long as she uses a little more strength, these two will fall out.”

Sophie was confused. “Why do you say that?”

Jiang An leaned closer to her. “I don’t think Henry knows what Mary did. If he did, he would have let his son go too. I think everyone is here to please me. Could it be that he’s magnanimous enough to give his substitute to John?”

Of course, the answer was no. They were both wary of each other. It was just that they had a common enemy that they had temporarily formed an alliance with. Once the enemy disappeared, the first person they had to get rid of was the other party.

“So where do we go from here?” Sophie asked.

Jiang An thought for a moment. “You’d better help me spread the word that my fiance and I are connected by marriage, but we actually don’t have any feelings for each other and that I really need someone to accompany me.”

Zou Bai was immediately displeased. He looked at Jiang An with a cold face. Sophie didn’t know if she should say that.

Jiang An patted Zou Bai’s hand. “It’s just a plan. Anyway, these things have nothing to do with us after we return to the country.”

Zou Bai agreed without pulling his hand away. He whispered into her ear, “Explain it to me tonight.”

Jiang An instantly felt a chill run down her spine. She didn’t want to go back tonight.

Before Sophie could pass the message, Prince Allen, who had been reluctant before, came over and said with a smile, “Miss Jiang, do you think this banquet is fun?”

He was in his early twenties and looked as handsome as a prince in a painting. When he smiled, there were two dimples on his face. At this moment, he looked very pleasing to the eye with a smile.

Jiang An wanted to make use of them, so she immediately smiled. “It’s quite fun, but I’m a little lonely.”

This was a hint. Allen quickly walked to his side and said, “Then I’ll accompany Miss Jiang. I’ve attended such banquets too many times. There’s nothing new.”

Zou Bai silently stood behind Jiang An, but he had already thought of 800 ways to kill him. Tonight, he would teach this kid a lesson.

Allen still didn’t know what he was about to encounter. He felt that he had already taken the first successful step and happily stayed by Jiang An’s side.

Jiang An chatted with him and realized that this person’s IQ.was not high. She could actually get information out of him.

This discovery made Jiang An even happier. She continued to talk to him about some things she wanted to know, including things that Sophie didn’t know.

She didn’t know if he was really stupid or pretending to be stupid, but he actually said it all..
