Chapter 579 - Five Hundred And Seventy-nine: The Betrayal

Isabella\'s point of view:

"The plans has been moved, the queen is suspicious. It\'s a good thing I did something about the cellphone else our plans would have been seriously jeopardized. However, we can\'t wait any longer, we have to make a move. While they rest and make plans for tomorrow, the throne of Lincolnshire would change hands tonight. Get your men ready, it\'s time to move, "

I let out a sigh, a cold expression crossing my gaze. These foolish people!

Sincerely, I cared less about the kingdom of Lincolnshire but my loved ones were here including aunt Emily and I couldn\'t let anything happen to them. If even as much as a strand on their hairs gets hurt, I\'d burn Lincolnshire to the ground. No one would take my loved ones away from me again.

How had I known about the treason? Well, my siblings were zealous fools. I had suspected it with their inquisitiveness - and carelessness. The way they had queried Akim on every detail about Lord Albert and their eagerness to perform in the bouquet had told me everything I needed to know.

I had been watching them carefully. Compared to what people think, I watch over my loved ones - almost like a stalker. Sometimes being so smart means you bore out easily, hence other lives fascinated me. So I watch them carefully and subtly while pretending not to care. If they knew I cared, they would demand more of my affection, which I wasn\'t ready to give. Being misunderstood was much better than being loved by everyone, that way, no one has high expectations of me and I\'m?free to be who I am.

I knew what my siblings planned, it was brilliant yet reckless and flimsy. It wasn\'t surprising, they were kids after all. They know nothing about the depth of darkness in the human soul - how twisted and dangerous the human heart was.

So I used them, didn\'t warn them and let them fail miserably - that would teach them a lesson not to dangle carelessly in such dangerous waters. But then, that action finally made Albert move - as I wanted.

I had a suspicion they would probably attack on Judy\'s traditional wedding and I couldn\'t let it. It was too risky that day, the mood would be joyous and the guards relaxed, none of them would expect such betrayal, especially not from their own.

So I forced Albert\'s hands tonight and now there was a hint of suspicion in the air. Although the queen was easily bought over by past acquaintances and bonds, her son, Judy wasn\'t and that was what I wanted.

Judy would surely investigate and Lord Albert knew that as well, which was what pushed their plans forward - tonight was perfect.

But then, to win against the enemies, one must know their tactics and this?wasn\'t the first time in history spies have been sent out to enemy camps to steal information, I let myself become that spy. It was cool knowing you\'re in the shadows saving the world.

I waited in the shadows and when Lord Albert appeared, stealthily planted my device on him without discovery. I recalled the way my anger rose to the surface knowing that this was the man who was about to suffer this kingdom - and my family. War ravishes.

For a moment, I had a dark thought of ending him. Staring at the guard at the corner, I thought if I could only steal his sword, I could end this man and stop the war before it even began.

But then,I?knew I couldn\'t do it as Pedro\'s face came into my mind lecturing as usual, "Violence isn\'t the answer. There is always a way other than that,"

I then tried to imagine the look on the faces of my father and mother and siblings when they heard I killed a lord. They wouldn\'t believe me even if I told them the reason - not without evidence. Even if they did, the stupid queen wouldn\'t let me be, she might even kill me before the investigation begins.

Then a dark thought emerged once again, why even bother to kill Albert. I should let that pathetic queen see the ruins her subject she trusted the most brings upon her kingdom.

And just like every other selfish human out there, I wanted to live too. Life was complicated yet interesting and I wanted more of that challenge - it thrills me.

So I went back to my spying, trying to hear what next they were upto. Since Lord Albert had made up his mind to commence with the rebel, he would surely be on call after call before he reached his place, giving out instructions and their plans.

Hopefully, the man doesn\'t mind?sweating and changes out of his clothes else my spying is over. I had placed the mini device on his coat and thanks to the cover of the night, it would take a very close look to discern it.

But then I was distracted when my door was kicked open and my sister Ailee strode in. Speak about trouble.

"Sister, I need your help -"

"Shhh," I pressed my lips against my lips to gesture to shut up. I think I stumbled upon an interesting conversation.

Ailee looked up at me in confusion and I could see the curiosity in her eyes. Maybe our behaviors weren\'t that far off, we\'re sisters afterall. So I let her in on a little secret, enough to keep her mind working.

"He\'s going to make a move tonight,"

"Huh?" she blinked, "What? Who?"

I sighed, recalling that Allen was the much faster one on comprehending situations like this. And just as I thought, he appears in my room and Neon with him.

Wonderful, those there were about to bother me to death. Good thing Anabelle wasn\'t here - I had tactically sent her away to Julie - else I would really die from their unending questions.

"Who is making the move tonight?" Ailee repeated the question. Looking at her now, she does have a lot of Reina\'s fierce spirit.

"The betrayal you failed to catch," was all I said, focused on the conversation in my earbud. Lord Albert wanted the queen and Kai alive, Emily was not to live.

They wish, I snorted.
