Chapter 917
It was a very fascinating emotion.
It was much like a fondness for something that had been around for a long time.
After more than ten years, she had long since become accustomed to Barbarian protecting and watching out for her.She stepped in front of Barbarian and shielded him, just like what Barbarian had done for her every time she met with danger.She even felt that all of this was a conspiracy that the others had devised.
After all...
The Queen looked at Nora.
"The V16 or whatever it's called is with you, tight? Are you trying to use this as an excuse to get rid of Barbarian? This way, no one would fight with you for it anymore! But for you to spin lies like this, you're too much!"
At this point, the masked Justin said solemnly, "Your Majesty, they are not spinning lies."
His words made the Queen suddenly look at him.
In this instant, she suddenly realized that Justin was also aware of all this.
Therefore, it wasn't just Nora who had set up this trap for her; it was also Justin! The Queen felt betrayed.
She was here at the Schmidts just for a visit as a guest, but the group of them had all been plotting against her.
The smile on her face disappeared completely, and she revealed a cold and resolute side of herself.
She said, "So, you're also part of this, King? Hah.Do you really think that we, the British, are that easy to bully, though? I've already said it: Barbarian is mine.
If you don't have any conclusive evidence, then you can forget about taking him away from me! Since I've brought him to the Schmidts, then I will walk out of this place with him safe and well! This stands true even if...I must become enemies with the Schmidts and the Imperial League! We, the British, are not afraid!"
She had pride.
As a Queen, she had never been afraid of anyone.
Justin sighed.
"He is not a good man."
Despite that, the Queen still said firmly, "He's not a good man? Barbarian has always been very kind when he protects me.He never kills the innocent indiscriminately, and he has never come to me with even a bit of blood on him! He doesn't like to talk, but I know that he is a kind person!"
A kind person...
Her words stunned Barbarian, whom she was protecting behind herself.
To be honest, the reason why he cleaned himself thoroughly every time he killed someone was exactly the Queen's trust in him.
The Queen had blue eyes as pure as clear water.
Though the Queen was arrogant and always behaved like she was high up in the air, she had the purest heart despite her noble status.
Therefore, Barbarian was most afraid of the Queen finding out about his activities...
Thus, he had never left any traces outside that pointed to him being the Queen's bodyguard, fearing that the matter would be brought to the Queen's attention.
But as he looked at the Queen, who was standing in front of him and leaving her back exposed to him with confidence, he suddenly felt that he was not worthy.
He was not worthy of being shielded by such a good Queen.
He was not worthy of having the Queen become enemies with the Schmidts and the Imperial League because of him! Just as Barbarian was about to speak, Brenda curled her lips and said, "You're the Queen, right? Why are you so muddleheaded? Fortunately, my sister-in-law knows what you're like, so she told me to bring all the evidence here!"
After she spoke, Brenda fished out a stack of paper evidence from her bag and stretched out her hand to hand them to the Queen.
She said, "These are all the people Barbarian has killed over the years! He—"
Before she could finish, though, Barbarian suddenly moved! He charged out from behind the Queen at high speed and threw a punch at Brenda.
Brenda took two steps back abruptly and the documents in her hands fell and scattered all over the floor.
The Queen looked at the floor...
At the side, both Nora and Justin thought that Barbarian was planning to take Brenda hostage because he was at his wits' end, so they subconsciously stood in front of Brenda to protect her and waited for Barbarian to attack.
Unexpectedly, Barbarian did not rush over.
Instead, he stopped in front of the Queen.
He stood on the so-called evidence and blocked the Queen's line of sight.
‘Don't look!"
His voice was filled with panic, just like a child begging for help.He was afraid of the Queen seeing the evidence, he was afraid of seeing disappointment in the Queen's eyes...His tone made the Queen's heart wrench, and she withdrew her gaze. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"Okay, I won't look..."
Barbarian breathed a sigh of relief.
But right after he let out the sigh of relief, the Queen asked, "Then tell me, are they telling the truth? Did you...really kill a lot of people?"
Barbarian clenched his jaw.
The Queen looked at him fixedly.
"You have never lied to me.So, tell me that none of this is true.Don't worry, I will protect you."
Barbarian's expression blanked out for a moment.He suddenly thought of their first meeting more than ten years ago.
"You can live here with peace of mind! I will protect you!"
The young princess said to the boy who had just escaped from confinement with injuries all over him.
The boy curled up and tried his best to shrink himself so that his dirty body wouldn't touch the princess’ pure and clean dress.He was afraid of soiling the angel.
The princess, however, sat beside him, not caring in the least.Her skirt pressed against his bare feet, and it became stained.Her big blue eyes looked at him as she said, "Oh, but you have to promise me that you'll never lie to me."
