Chapter 1736: After Jolie Gets the Call

The rain grew heavier and heavier. The gloomy sky looked like it wouldcollapse at any moment. Bolts of lightning flashed continuously, likegiant dragons.

Rolls of deafening thunder echoed across the skies.

The timid maids and young noblewomen related to the royal familycovered their ears in fright, not daring to be alone.

The torrential downpour was like the heavens had ruptured, the rainpounded down relentlessly. The unprecedented sound of the stormmade the palace shake as if it would crumble.

In an instant, a layer of mist rose from the ground and rooftops,obscuring vision.

In Jolie's private dining room, warm lamps lit up the elegant interior.Servants brought out one exquisite, delicious dish after another for her."Please enjoy, Commander,” they said after the table was fully laid out.Then they left and thoughtfully closed the door.

This was not just dinner-it was refined, nutritious and elegant.

The aroma from the fish and steak on the table was especiallytantalizing. Jolie sat down, having felt uneasy all day.

Just as she picked up her silver chopsticks to start eating, her phonerang. She quickly answered and the person on the other end reported:"Commander, we just observed someone staking out Eden's palace.Looks like they were there the whole afternoon. Some of Eden'sservants also inexplicably left just five minutes ago.”

"Whose people are watching him? Why were the servants calledaway?" Jolie asked coldly.

"Not sure, they seem to be Mr. Marsh's people, but can't confirm."lvan's people?

Jolie's eyes narrowed slightly. "What about Prince Louis? What's hedoing? Any movements?"

"The prince is still at the king's bedchamber. He hasn't left at all. Thefog from the rain is getting too thick to see clearly.”

"What about Eden? What's he doing?" Jolie asked.

"Eden just left the king's palace, probably heading back to his ownquarters.”

"I see. Keep a close eye for me. Something will definitely happentonight. They're probably waiting for this storm to provide cover. Stayalert!"

"Yes, Commander.”

The call had just ended when another came through. Jolie glanced atthe caller ID and answered, "What's the situation over there?""Commander, there's an inconspicuous door at the back of Eden'spalace. It's usually locked, but now it's unlocked.”

Jolie's heart sank at this news!

They're checking very thoroughly!

Looks like tonight's main event is at Eden's place. But Eden is Louis’uncle. What are they planning to do to him?

"I understand.” Jolie ended the call and put down her fork to leave.She wanted to replace out what was going on, so didn't tell the Queen.Ivan had planned to drug Jolie's dinner to keep her from interfering. Butwith the two calls, she didn't eat anything.

Before leaving, Jolie purposefully wore a hat and changed into clothesshe didn't usually wear-not her uniform. She took a big black umbrella.The heavy rain severely reduced visibility to less than two meters. Thethick fog obscured sight. This helped conceal Jolie well.

Having been in the palace for years, Jolie was extremely observant andknew every corner like the back of her hand.

Plus, with her status and position, the guards generally wouldn't hinderher movements.

So she had unobstructed access.

But she had never been to Eden's quarters before.

Braving the downpour, she arrived at the location mentioned in the call-the back door of Eden's palace. The rusty iron door was right beforeher eyes. The lock on it used to be all rusty too.

The kind of lock that would be hard to open even with a key. Yet now, itwas gone?
