“What if Duke Vestalis supports you in this Battle of Throne?”
Evane offered with a smile on her face.
“W-What?”
Lovis was stunned.
He couldn’t believe what he was hearing.
He tried to hide his excitement and was trying not to show any reactions to Evane’s words, however, no matter how hard he tried, Nux could see those eyes shining in uncontrollable greed.
‘His Desire was the Throne is too Great, even greater than Raguel.’
Amaya, who was seeing everything from afar spoke.
‘I can see that and I refuse to believe that he is the person Evane thinks he is.’
Nux nodded his head and narrowed his eyes as he glanced at Lucas.
He was doubtful at first, however, now he was sure.
Evane was wrong about Lucas.
This man was definitely not as simple as Evane portrays him to be.
He has many secrets.
‘Evane needs to stay away from him.’
‘We need to prove everything to her.’
Amaya replied.
Nux then glanced at Evane and his face turned solemn,
‘It won’t be that easy.’
‘Don’t worry, let the act continue, I am sure this man would fall for this.’
Amaya smiled.
Nux smiled back.
“What are you smiling about, you bastard?”
Leo, Lovis’s butler, who Nux pulled away, questioned in a frustrated tone.
“…”
Nux, however, completely ignored the man and continued to observe Lovis and Evane with his [Sense].
“Lovis, I need your help.”
Evane muttered.
“Help?”
Lovis frowned.
Weren’t you about to help me? When did our situation turn around?
Wait…
Was her sister playing with him?
Lovis narrowed his eyes.
However, before he could make any more absurd conclusions, Evane continued.
“Yes, I need your help with Lucas.”
“With Lucas?”
Lovis tilted his head in confusion.
He just couldn’t understand what was going through his Sister’s mind.
“I am observing that boy ever since I returned and I realized that his addiction to Alcohol has increased even more compared to the time I left. Not only that, he has even started going around touching random women and prostitutes, I heard that he even assaulted a few women.”
Evane spoke about her worries.
This time, although what she was saying was according to the script, she wasn’t acting.
She was actually worried about Lovis.
“I have to do something, I can’t allow him to destroy his life like that and for that, I need your help.”
She spoke in a determined tone.
Although Lovis couldn’t understand where Lucas suddenly popped into this conversation, he still questioned.
“What can I do for you?”
“Listen, I have a plan.”
Evane then moved her body close to Lovis and continued.
“I will talk to my Grandfather, I will ask him to support you instead of supporting me. You can then talk with your Grandfather and tell him to give my Grandfather some benefits, I am sure he will agree and support you in this Battle of Thrones.
With two Dukes supporting you, there is no way you would not be chosen as the next King of this Kingdom.”
Evane explained her plan and hearing her words, Lovis’s eyes shined in excitement and a smile appeared on his face.
‘He is not even trying to hide his excitement now.’
Nux shook his head.
‘He is too excited to care about it.’
Amaya replied and Nux nodded.
Evane’s face then turned solemn and she continued,
“Once you become the King, I want you to put Lucas in Prison.”
“Prison?”
Lovis frowned.
“Yes, I have realized that normal methods won’t work against him. We need to use force. In prison, he wouldn’t be able to touch any alcohol or women, in a few years, I am sure Lucas would get rid of this annoying addiction.
I know it is wrong, however, if it can place him back in the right path, I am ready to do it.”
Evane answered with conviction.
“So… you will support me as long as I promise to imprison Lucas after becoming the King?”
Lucas questioned.
“Yes, I will.”
Evane answered.
“And what if I don’t keep my part of the promise?”
“Huh? Why would you do that? You are not planning to go against your Big Sister are you?”
Evane narrowed her eyes jokingly.
“Of course not. How can I do that.”
Lovis chuckled.
A smile appeared on Evane’s face as she grabbed Lovis’s cheeks.
“I know I can trust your words, Lovis.”
“Ugghhh! I am not a child!”
Lovis complained.
“For me, you will always be a child, even after you become the King.”
Evane answered.
Lovis chuckled and at the same time, he realized.
His Sister was as naïve as before, she hasn’t changed at all.
She was not a threat.
A smile appeared on Lovis’s face as he glanced at Evane.
“Oh right,”
Suddenly, Evane spoke up.
Then, two papers appeared on Evane’s hand and she passed them to Lovis.
“Alright, write what you just said on this paper and then sign it.”
Hearing those words, Lovis narrowed his eyes.
“Didn’t you say that you trusted my words?”
“I did, however, I do not trust your memory. You will forget about it, therefore, it is better to write it.”
“Why two papers then?”
Lovis questioned.
“One for you and the other for me, of course.”
Evane replied.
Lovis narrowed his eyes even further, however, in the end, he decided to give in.
The rewards were just too enticing for him to not give in.
Also, it is just writing on paper, what could possibly go wrong?
Once he actually becomes the King, would he really be threatened by a piece of paper?
Of course not.
In the end, Lovis decided to fulfill his sister’s wish and started writing on paper.
“Hm hm, good.”
Lovis quickly wrote on the papers and as soon as he was done, Evane smiled.
“Alright, now stick this paper in your room, so that you will never forget it.”
Lovis chuckled, and then, he called,
“Leo.”
“At your command, Master Lovis.”
Leo appeared within a second.
“Stick this paper to the wall of my room, make it so that I can see it every day.”
“As you command, Master Lovis.”
Lovis then turned towards Evane and smiled.
“Are you satisfied, Big Sister?”
“Good Boy.”
Evane smiled.
