Chapter 1455 Do You Think You Can Fool Me Like a Child?

As Alice continued her revelation, the crowd was in shock.

What's going on? Does this mean that Olivia is the rightful queen of Eurosia instead?!

Alice ignored their astonishment and continued, "The Crown Princess' name is Avril Bleu, which means'beginning' and symbolizes a new start for my mother. Later, when Avril was lost, my mother searchedfor her, but when it proved fruitless, she shifted her focus to replaceing the necklace. Since the necklacewas placed on Avril, my mother believed that replaceing the necklace would lead to her daughter, andthat's why Eurosia's succession required the sapphire necklace. My mother was wise; she knew thateveryone would strive to replace the necklace for the throne, but it was never found. Five years ago, on thenight depicted in Lucian's video..."

She paused and took a deep breath. "At this point, I don't want to hide anything. The video Lucianreleased a few days ago is indeed genuine, and the person in it is indeed Olivia. She was the assassinfrom the Double Dragon Court hired by Lucian, intending to steal the sapphire necklace."

The crowd was left bewildered by this revelation.

What's going on? Wasn't the video said to be fabricated just a few days ago? Now, it's genuine again?!Also, the Queen had just claimed that Olivia is both the Crown Princess and the rightful queen, and yet,now, she revealed that Olivia is indeed the assassin from the video. What's the real story here?!

Lucian grinned wickedly, schadenfreude. How about that? She doesn't spare any mercy now that Oliviais threatening her throne as well. She wants to strike us down, then get rid of Olivia, doesn't she?!"

At that, he exclaimed urgently, "So, you're admitting that the video is real now? Last time, youvehemently claimed it was fabricated. Whom were you trying to protect? Or is it that the person you'reprotecting also poses a threat to you? You're accusing me of hiring assassins from the Double DragonCourt. What evidence do you have? You're labeling Olivia as an assassin and branding both me andyour sister as employers of assassins. By doing this, you're eliminating all those who threaten you. It'sa clever way of getting rid of your rivals! I suspect you're not here to solve problems but to eliminatedissidents!"

Alice's lips curved into a half-smile, seemingly amused. "I was just introducing Doctor Maxwell's identityto everyone. Why are you so worked up, Lucian? If I wanted to eliminate dissidents, I wouldn't haverevealed Doctor Maxwell's identity."

While Lucian furrowed his brows, looking somewhat puzzled, she continued, "I recognized DoctorMaxwell immediately when I saw her this time. Back when she and the others were in this study, I wasjust outside, and I had their every move under my control. Of course, I had no idea that Lucian hadplaced a recording in my study."

She then turned to look at Lucian. "You asked me who I was protecting to deliberately claim that thevideo was fabricated. Well, let me tell you, it was you, my father. I was giving you a chance! I didn'twant to be ruthless with you. Don't you realize that by admitting the video's authenticity, you essentiallyacknowledge that you hired assassins to steal the necklace?! Otherwise, how do you explain placing arecording in my study that conveniently captured them committing the crime? The only explanation isthat you knew in advance.

"Even if the Double Dragon Court's assassins were formidable, without someone on the inside, theycouldn't have moved about Eurosia freely without raising suspicion. I've given you chances time and

time again, but you truly didn't take me seriously. Your daughter made grandiose claims, framingdoctors and preventing them from treating General Bleu. You secretly rallied various factions to yourside. Just a few months ago, you even sent assassins from Dragon's Breath to steal the necklace,didn't you? The list of assassins in your possession is something only the employer would have.Father, did you really think you could fool me like a child?"
