Chapter 59: Chapter 059: Evelyn Your Highness Chapter 59: Chapter 059: Evelyn Your Highness Evelyn sneered, “She’s now Fu Xing’s woman; forget about her! You’ll never have her in this lifeti.”
The man clenched his fists tightly and closed his eyes in agony, repressing his voice as he asked, “Was it you who ordered the killing of Ding Xuan?”
“Why? Can’t I kill a lowly commoner?” Evelyn replied dismissively.
“She was the adopted daughter of Admiral Fu Guang, not so lowly commoner.”
“Does it make a difference?” Evelyn exuded an aristocratic charm mixed with seductiveness, every frown and smile captivating, her distinctive cklenburg Royal Family rose-pink hair making her seem like a bewitching goddess straight from a myth.
She was once the elder princess of the Royal Family, the first in line to the Imperial Throne, the true Imperial Moon, Princess Evelyn.
Unfortunately, ten years ago, due to internal struggles within the Royal Family, the weak and benevolent Joseph IV was assassinated, dragging nurous nobles and military leaders into imprisonnt or exile.
The noble princess thus beca a hunted dog, constantly pursued and living in exile.
This once proud Princess Evelyn beca twisted and capricious, driven mad by her desire for revenge and power, unrestrained by any ans.
Anything could be sacrificed and abandoned if it ant reclaiming the Imperial Throne, even a rebellious and uncontrollable sister.
“She might be the adopted daughter of Admiral Fu Guang, but she’s not his blood daughter,” Evelyn said scornfully, “She humiliated my sister and must pay the price. Why are you angry? You should be happy that I’m protecting my sister.”
“You’re not protecting her; you’re harming her. I know you want to incite internal strife within the Fu Family, disputes between uncles and nephews; that’s fine. But making Flora a scapegoat will kill her.”
Xiling, unable to control his rage any longer, kicked over the table, causing a noisy crash and further infuriating the already agitated Evelyn.
“How dare you lash out at ?”
The woman glared down at Xiling, flas in her eyes.
“I warn you,” Xiling grasped Evelyn’s shoulders, enunciating each word, “I know you’re upset, but no matter how upset you are, you have to endure it.”
By the end, Xiling was almost growling through clenched teeth.
“Moreover, Fu Xing isn’t a fool; your tricks won’t fool him. His recent sweep of Zone 23 is a counter-warning. We must remain patient and cautious.”
“But I’ve had enough.”
Evelyn collapsed weakly, her spirit broken, lanting, “Do you know how much I hate all of this? Do you know how disgusting it feels to watch that clown Theresa parade around with the title that belongs to ?”
Xiling wanted to say that Flora, treated as an expendable pawn, hated and suffered even more.
But he held back, knowing Evelyn would not want to hear it.
“We’re all suffering.”
From being the jewel of the heavens to a hunted outlaw. Not daring to use their real nas, showing their true faces, even abandoning their surnas, ridiculed even by the Star Thieves, each day was torture.
“Flora is doing well; she’s already begun to earn Fu Xing’s approval. Our plan will succeed.” There was a sinister gleam in Xiling’s eyes as he spoke.
“You’re right.”
Evelyn’s gaze suddenly hardened, “I want this internal Royal Family struggle to be extrely brutal. I want the skies of the Empire to once again be overwheld with funeral banners.”

The assassination incident passed quietly, with only a few aware of what had truly happened, most people oblivious.
David had vanished, unnoticed except by a few close friends.
Such is the fate of a pawn—pitiful, tragic, detestable.
Song Zheng insisted on preserving David’s enrollnt.
The newcor team assembly at the Land War Academy was about to be completed, the gravity simulation chamber competition still in full swing.
Lin Fu was ordered to rest at ho for three days and only returned to school today.
Wanting to return to school earlier, she was unable to even step out of the front door; Mr. Major General had given the order, and the private security system and robots showed no rcy.
Fu Xing hadn’t returned either, denying her any chance to complain.
“I’m back.”
Excitedly pushing open the door of Dormitory 2277, Lin Fu’s smile vanished instantly when she saw her belongings scattered ssily in the living room.
Her clothes, favorite accessories, and books thrown on the floor and trampled like trash.
And the companion robot given to her by her foster father when she left her hotown.
