Chapter 1017
Everyone was on edge.
“Who the hell is this?” Landon spat out through gnashed teeth, a deep frown etched across his face..
He loathed himself and Jasper for leaving too hastily. They didn’t bring enough reinforcements to assert control and intimidate
these troublemakers.
A commander seemed insignificant here, earning no more respect than anyone else. Even a major would have to accord him the
respect he deserved if they were in Solana City.
“You’re a grown man. Why are you acting like a headless chicken, losing your composure when something happens?”
Axel playfully teased Landon with a sidelong glance, the cigare between his lips bobbing up and down. Despite his outward
appearance of calm and composure, he tightly gripped the gun
hand.
“I don’t care who the hell this is or whether he’s alone or with a grou
I will teach them a lesson.
“You’re right.” Landon nodded, reacting quickly. Then, he frowned with anger. “Shit. What do you mean by a headless chicken?
Take a look at yourself in the mirror.”
Axel couldn’t be bothered. He annoyingly whistled. “I don’t mind that. I am the cream of the crop. If you and I fight to compete
against each other, I will win over you by a mile.”
Landon couldn’t stand him, nor could he beat him. Yet, he couldn’t outwit him with his mouth. He was outrageous.

At this moment, Alyssa and the rest realized the entire parking lot was locked down.
Two groups of guards wearing royal uniforms rushed in hastily. They lined up neatly on both sides. It was intimidating.
The commander saw what happened and frantically hid in one corner. He saluted respectfully with a serious look on his face.
“Phew, it must be a big shot that came. What a dramatic entrance.” Axel whistled.
“From the looks of things, it seems like the person is royalty. From what I know, the royal family members are harboring the local
arms. dealers. Tsulu’s government is extremely corrupted.”
Jonah’s face darkened. However, his hand that rested on Alyssa’s shoulder was warm and strong. It gave her a strong sense of
security. “Don’t be scared, Lyse. It doesn’t matter who comes at us with trouble. I will make sure you leave safe and sound.”
Alyssa took a deep breath. She rested her hand on Jonah’s we will do this together. Jonah, I’m no longer the princess you hold
delicately in the palm of your hand anymore. I have what i to protect you, too.”
“You’re right. I forgot.”
Jonah smiled with a gentle look on his face. “My little sister had
grown up.”
Only when one truly loved another would the person always be
treated as a child.
The luxury car came to a steady stop. Subsequently, the guards swiftly approached with respect, opening both sides of the door.
Simultaneously, passengers on both the left and right sides disembarked from the vehicle.

The one on the left was graceful and dignified. She wore a blue embroidered long silk dress, a beautiful lady decked in the finest
jewelry. At one glance, anyone could tell how rich and powerful she
was.
“Your Honor, Queen Magdalene.”
Everyone knelt on one knee and saluted. Alyssa and the rest were instantly brought back in time to the days of the monarchy.
At this time, the person on the right got out of the car slowly.
The lady was as beautiful as art. She was elegant and graceful. Her eyes twinkled, appearing noble and confident.
She had a graceful figure. She wore a white haute couture suit with an emerald brooch embellished with diamonds on her chest.
It was
dazzling.
Alexa designed this personally for her as a birthday gift three years
ago.
She loved it dearly. It was a treasure to her.
The commander saw Queen Magdalene, and the lady walke
hand in hand. He quickly bowed deeply. “It’s nice to see you, M Madam President.”
He never expected Queen Magdalene to know the Madam Preside of Kontina personally, let alone how close they were.
