Chapter 1425 Framed

Fortunately, most of the guards rushed in and separated them before things could get ugly.

Eugene knew that he couldn't do anything to Lucian in this situation. So, he forcefully shook off theguard holding him in place and quickly rushed to Olivia's side.

"Are you okay?"

She shook her head. "I'm fine." Then, she took the sapphire necklace that Eugene handed to her andkept it in her pocket.

Eugene's anger was far from subsided. Thus, he turned his attention and glared fiercely at thebewildered Albert. "Albert Bleu! Is this how Eurosia treats their guests?" Albert opened his mouth to saysomething. Alas, for the life of him, he didn't know what to say.

Mainly because he was also rather confused at the moment!

Now, he wasn't sure whether Olivia was the thief.

If she was, she had no reason to come to Eurosia and saunter right into a trap.

If she wasn't, then what had just happened earlier?

If Lucian planted the 'Tears of the Ocean' to frame her, how could the sapphire necklace have fallen outof her bag?

The only possible reason was that she owned the necklace.

As for whether she bought it herself or stole it… Well, excuse him, but he had no idea.

Unfortunately, Eugene's patience had run out during Albert's brief hesitation, and disappointment couldbe heard in his voice. "We're nothing but utter fools to have traveled thousands of miles just for thelikes of you. We definitely didn't come here just to be humiliated!"

As he spoke, he embraced Olivia's shoulder and said, "Let's go!"

Just as they had spun on their heels to leave, Beatrix blocked their way as a gloating smile appearedon her face.

"Go? Where do you think you're going? You stole something from Eurosia and still had the gall to leavejust like that?"

She looked around at everyone and exclaimed, "You all saw what happened, didn't you? Not only didOlivia steal the necklace from Eurosia, but she's also targeting General Bleu's 'Tears of the Ocean.'Everyone knows that Queen Alice gave that necklace to General Bleu herself. It's also a well-knownfact that he has always treasured it. If Olivia weren't a skilled thief, I doubt she would have been able toget her hands on this necklace so easily. I told you she was suspicious, everyone..."

Before she could finish her words, she was kicked in the stomach, exactly where her father had beenkicked.

She looked up at Eugene in disbelief, with a hint of grievance and sadness in her eyes. This manactually attacked her?

Frankly, no one could understand Eugene's feelings at this moment. He was scarily close to committingmurder.

These fools had been testing his patience one after another. It was as though they were deliberatelytrying to get themselves killed.

Eventually, he spat coldly as a scowl appeared on his face, "Get lost!"

After that, he embraced Olivia and tried to leave yet again.

This time, Lucian stepped forward and stopped them in their tracks. "You, who have both committedassault and theft, can't just leave like this, right? Shouldn't the two of you explain why Eurosia'streasured item has ended up in your bags?"

Olivia's face turned cold, and there was a hidden anger in her eyes. "Then, don't you think you shouldexplain why my bag was in your hands before we circle back to that particular topic? Besides, I replace itutterly outrageous that you, who are supposedly a part of the royal family, would stoop so low to usesuch despicable means to frame a guest who came from afar just to treat your citizen. I have to say,because of you, I have come to replace Eurosians nothing but despicable!"

Then, Eugene interjected, "Why waste your time talking to him? If we are treated unfairly here, it won'tjust be a war between me and you. Instead, it will be a war that will involve two countries."

Lucian curled his lips into a triumphant smirk. "Unlike you, we have conclusive evidence of yourmisdeeds. So, why don't you explain to me just how I framed you for a crime that you have clearlydone? Sure, you guys claimed that the video could have been doctored. Still, you can't sweepeverything under the rug now that you've been caught red-handed. I know you have a powerful countrybacking you, but you can't just turn a blind eye to the law, right? I'm not sure if this will blow up into anincident that will bring shame to two countries, but even if it does, you will be punished according toEurosia's law."

Once he was done, he ordered loudly, "Someone, take them away."

The palace guards moved forward and surrounded Eugene and Olivia upon hearing his instructions.

Eugene took a step back and instinctively shielded Olivia. Then, his voice turned glacial as hethreatened, "I dare you to make a move!"

Alice stood up and shouted, "Stop!"

Lucian ignored her words and bellowed, "Arrest them!"

The guards looked at each other, unsure of what to do. Whose orders should they follow?

At this critical moment, a voice suddenly rang out from the entrance. "Wait!"
