Chapter 1736: After Jolie Gets The Call

Chapter 1736: After Jolie Gets the Call

The rain grew heavier and heavier. The gloomy sky looked like it would collapse at any moment. Bolts

of lightning flashed continuously, like giant dragons.

Rolls of deafening thunder echoed across the skies.

The timid maids and young noblewomen related to the royal family covered their ears in fright, not

daring to be alone.

The torrential downpour was like the heavens had ruptured, the rain pounded down relentlessly. The

unprecedented sound of the storm made the palace shake as if it would crumble.

In an instant, a layer of mist rose from the ground and rooftops, obscuring vision. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

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 especially tantalizing. Jolie sat down, having felt

uneasy all day.

Just as she picked up her silver chopsticks to start eating, her phone rang. 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's servants also inexplicably left just five minutes ago."

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

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

Ivan's people?

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

"The prince is still at the king's bedchamber. He hasn't left at all. The fog 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 own quarters."

"I see. Keep a close eye for me. Something will definitely happen tonight. They're probably waiting for

this storm to provide cover. Stay alert!"

"Yes, Commander."

The call had just ended when another came through. Jolie glanced at the caller ID and answered,

"What's the situation over there?"

"Commander, there's an inconspicuous door at the back of Eden's palace. 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 find out what was going on, so didn't tell the Queen.

Ivan had planned to drug Jolie's dinner to keep her from interfering. But with the two calls, she didn't

eat anything.

Before leaving, Jolie purposefully wore a hat and changed into clothes she didn't usually wear-not her

uniform. She took a big black umbrella.

The heavy rain severely reduced visibility to less than two meters. The thick fog obscured sight. This

helped conceal Jolie well.

Having been in the palace for years, Jolie was extremely observant and knew every corner like the

back of her hand.

Plus, with her status and position, the guards generally wouldn't hinder her 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 before her 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, it was gone?
