Chapter 38: Secrets

Obviously we’re discussing business, why are we suddenly having a crooked mind? This is not good.

Richard took a sip of tea, his tone was gentle, "Then Carlotta can try it now, if you can enter directly, this kind of being ambushed won’t happen again in the future, and you can tell your males in advance, so that they can prepare in advance."

Richard asked to try, so Carlotta actually did the experiment.

She tentatively let go of her spiritual power and used God’s Vision to look at the spiritual sea of the surrounding attendants, including Blaze and Richard.

It was true that she could see clearly, but she also discovered that Richard’s spiritual sea was in tatters.

The seawater that represented spiritual power was sparse in some small puddles and dried up with black mist all over it.

Carlotta looked at Richard in shock.

This royal uncle’s spiritual sea was damaged not to mention that almost all of it was occupied by black mist, and the royal uncle was still able to maintain his normal sanity.

When Richard saw Carlotta’s eyes, he knew that Carlotta knew about his physical condition.

A light smile appeared on his sickly pale face, "It seems Carlotta is truly able to see without touching."

Carlotta nodded and was hesitant to say that she could save Richard when he heard Richard open his mouth, "I wonder if Carlotta could tranquilize me? While I won’t have a mental breakdown, I’m in poor health due to regression in my ability level."

" If you can soothe it for me, I’d be willing to give you ..."

Before Richard could finish his words, someone came to report, "Your Majesty, Lord Prince, Marquis Lucas is here with her daughter to see her."

Lucas is here?

Carlotta saw the first time the Queen looked at her, knowing what the Queen’s eyes meant, Carlotta said, "Queen receive Marquis Lucas, it’s okay with me."

She never took Lucas seriously in her heart anyway, so it didn’t matter if she received her or not.

Carlotta took the initiative to speak up, and the empress nodded, "You are a generous child."

Complimented by the Queen, Carlotta was appropriately shy for a moment before looking at Richard again.

She wanted to know what Richard was just about to say.

Richard smiled, "What I wanted to say is that if you can heal my spirit sea, I can transfer a mineral in my name to you as payment."

The minerals in this world were very valuable, as many places needed to use ore energy.

At all times, money would never fail a person.

"Good, then I can appease Royal Uncle now." Carlotta directly agreed, not hiding at all that she was indeed moving for the minerals.

This instead caused both the Queen and Richard to smile lovingly.

The younger generation’s greed for money would only make them feel cute, after all, the royal family had the strength to give.

"So Carlotta want to try, can you appease me with no contact?" Richard suggested.

Carlotta was about to speak when Lucas’s voice came from over there, "Greetings, Your Majesty, and greetings, Prince Richard."

The two females, who looked similar, respectfully bowed their heads to the Queen and Richard.

I don’t know if they didn’t see it or what happened, but they were just missing the line of bowing to the Duke.

The Queen and Richard’s faces sank at the same time.

Carlotta was about to open her mouth to speak when she heard Blaze behind her speak sternly, "Marquis Lucas dares to disrespect the Duke, is he not putting the royal family in his eyes?"

Blaze spoke with a deliberate voice, which was different from the usual naive voice.

Carlotta was tempted to turn around and see what Blaze’s expression was now, perhaps Blaze was serious and not smiling brightly like he usually did when he was relaxed.

It was too curious.

But Blaze was saying that to hold the scene for her.

Carlotta held back her curiosity, her azure eyes glowing with a clear coldness, and just looked at Lucas and the female Lucas had brought with him.

I don’t know what Lucas was thinking, but in any case, she paused for a moment before looking up at Carlotta with a shocked expression, "I’m sorry, Your Excellency the Duke, I didn’t realize you were there."

Then lowering her head once again, she brought her daughter to say, "Greetings to His Excellency the Duke."

Lucas bowed honestly before the Queen spoke, "Rise."

Lucas then stood up straight.

Vivi, who was behind Lucas, also revealed her face in front of Carlotta.

It was a bright and beautiful face, belonging to the woman with prominent features in Carlotta’s original world.

Carlotta was looking at Vivi, but Vivi wasn’t looking at Carlotta.

Her black eyes, which were the same as Lucas’s, were fixed on Richard with an extremely unbridled gaze.

Lucas was talking to the Empress, "Your Majesty, when I heard that Prince Richard had returned, I brought my daughter here to give Prince Richard his usual appeasement for this month."

The Queen’s gaze fell on Vivi.

Vivi was wearing a white dress, the dress was designed in such a way that the front revealed a ditch, and the back had a large portion of snow white back.

How was it possible to dress like that just to deliver the Imperial Prince as an appeasement?

The empress pushed down the dissatisfaction in her eyes towards Lucas and directly said, "By coincidence, just now Richard had already asked Carlotta to help give him appeasement, Marquis Lucas came one step late."

These words were already enough to give face.

Carlotta was Infinite Spirit Power, her channeling was definitely much more useful than two 3S females.

Saying that she came one step late was already a refusal.

As soon as she heard the Queen say that Carlotta was going to pacify Richard, Lucas’s eyes revealed a bit of dissatisfaction.

But she hid it well and only pulled Vivi and smiled, "Our Vivi’s rank is said to be 3S, but it’s actually higher than 3S, and before, after Admiral Abyss’s collapse value exceeded 60, it was Vivi who served him."

"The Prince’s spiritual sea, it has also been Vivi who has been stabilizing and pacifying the Prince. Didn’t it happen before that another female gave the Prince a stabilizing pacification, causing the Prince’s crash value to increase? Changing the pacifier rashly now might even make the Prince feel uncomfortable."

This was true.

Richard’s appeasement wasn’t something that just any female could do.

There were females who soothed Richard and in turn raised Richard’s meltdown value.

This was the reason why for so many years, Richard had been having Vivi go to his detachment every month.

After so many years, Richard was most comfortable with Vivi’s spiritual channeling.

Although Richard seldom participated in politics due to his health, the last time he attended a meeting, he was able to put forward a point of view that none of the ministers were able to refute, which was enough to prove that he was still able to sway the Queen’s mind.

How could such a powerful resource not be grasped in one’s hands?

As long as more appeasement was carried out, Prince Richard might just treat Vivi differently, so that their family could be considered to have really climbed up the royal family.

Therefore, when he heard that Richard returned to the Imperial Star, Lucas would be in a hurry to bring his daughter directly to the Imperial Palace, begging to see Richard.

Who knew that he was a step slow, Carlotta was already here.

Lucas, who had just finished his long speech, stared at Carlotta with disgruntled eyes.

Carlotta’s repeated refusal to return to Lucas’s house was already enough of a headache for her, and now to come straight to the palace and steal Vivi’s male was just too much!

Carlotta was stared at with disgruntled eyes by Lucas, and in her heart she only felt speechless.

Repeatedly pulling her in without success, this body’s birth mother still treated her as an enemy.

It was fine if Lucas was willing to clear the air with her, but if Lucas was clearly hostile to her, then she wouldn’t be willing to be bullied.

"Isn’t Marquis Lucas’ long speech so much about telling me that if I don’t know how to give mental appeasement to my royal uncle, I’m plotting against the royal family?"

Saying that, Carlotta paused for a moment, a scared expression appearing on her small face that had no make-up but was delicate enough, "It’s better to let your daughter pacify Royal Uncle, but what if she in turn causes him problems?"

Vivi, who had been silent all this time, heard Carlotta say this and furrowed her eyebrows drawn with a delicate eyebrow pencil, pouting her lips with an unhappy expression, "Sister, you’re saying this, I’ve been giving Prince Richard appeasement for so many years, and I’ve never once made a mistake. Prince Richard, don’t you think so?"

Vivi winked at Richard, looking indeed playful and cute.

Richard, however, remained aloof.

He knew exactly what the Lucas family mother and daughter were up to, but they just wanted to use him to continue to climb up the ladder. There was nothing wrong with females being ambitious, but he had never meant it that way.

"Your soothing did keep my meltdown value from going over 60 again," Richard said directly, "but this time I want to try Carlotta’s soothing."

After Richard said that, he thought that mother and daughter Lucas would argue their case and not let Carlotta soothe him.

Who knew that Lucas suddenly lowered his eyebrows, "Then let the Duke-sama perform the pacification for you first, if the Duke-sama can really lower your breakdown value by other than 10, that would be a good thing too."

Vivi also followed along and lowered her head, condescending, "Your Highness the Prince even wants to try, I respect Your Highness the Prince’s decision, but if my sister makes His Highness the Prince’s body go wrong, shouldn’t my sister also bear the corresponding responsibility?"
