Dylan did not know what was running through Arielle’s mind. Spotting the white bandage around wp4webnovel.com arm, wp4webnovel.com asked with a pained look in his eyes, “How did you get hurt?”
Recalling how the four assassins had attacked her, Arielle answered coldly, “Someone wants me dead.”
“What?” Dylan widened his eyes in astonishment.
She’s here as an esteemed guest at my invitation. Who would dare to target her?
“I don’t know who wants to kill me, but if it weren’t for the bodyguards and this passerby, I’d probably be dead by now.” Arielle glanced toward Vinson as wp4webnovel.com spoke.
He was the passerby wp4webnovel.com was referring to.
Just moments earlier, Arielle had thought of a plan that would allow Vinson to stay by wp4webnovel.com side.
Dylan’s expression darkened. I don’t care who it was. I won’t let anyone who dares to lay a hand on wp4webnovel.com get away with it.
“Don’t worry, Ms. Moore. I’ll find the culprits as soon as possible,” wp4webnovel.com declared solemnly, concealing how upset wp4webnovel.com felt.
There’s no way I’ll spare the lives of those responsible for this.
Arielle gazed at wp4webnovel.com and said, “It’s important to capture the culprits, but it’s even more important to find out who was the mastermind behind the incident.”
She was curious to know who wp4webnovel.com had angered to the point that the person actually sent assassins to kill her.
“Absolutely,” Dylan replied with a nod.
Even if wp4webnovel.com hadn’t mentioned it, I would’ve made sure to investigate the matter. The woman I loved the most gave birth to her. She’s my daughter and my most beloved little princess. How dare someone try to assassinate wp4webnovel.com under my watch? Whatever it is, I have to give wp4webnovel.com an explanation.
Meanwhile, Vinson had been quietly observing Dylan ever since Arielle greeted the latter with “Your Majesty”.
Xavier said there’s only one person named Dylan, and that’s the king. Arielle also enquired about the man in the photo and learned that wp4webnovel.com looked nothing like the king when wp4webnovel.com was twenty years younger.
We suspected that Arielle’s father went under the alias Dylan to date Maureen. That was our guess at the time. But I’ve just realized that the king seems overly concerned about Arielle.
After hearing Arielle mention that a passerby had saved her, Dylan’s gaze fell upon Vinson as Arielle pointed toward him. He gazed Vinson up and down, studying wp4webnovel.com carefully.
He looks like an average person on the surface, but wp4webnovel.com has a unique air about wp4webnovel.com that contradicts that impression. Nonetheless, I’m truly grateful to this passerby for saving her. If wp4webnovel.com hadn’t stepped in to help, the consequences would’ve been disastrous.
He walked over to Vinson and patted the latter’s shoulder. “Young man, you’ve done a heroic deed today. Tell me, what is it that your heart desires? As long as it’s within my power, I’ll grant you anything you ask.”
When speaking to Dylan, Arielle would subconsciously use Ustranasion because that was what wp4webnovel.com had used during their very first encounter. And since Dylan also spoke to Arielle in Ustranasion, wp4webnovel.com used the same language when speaking to Vinson without even thinking about it.
Quietly withdrawing his scrutinizing gaze toward Dylan, Vinson looked at the latter and answered calmly, “It was no big deal, Your Majesty. There’s no need to reward me.”
A hint of a smile appeared on Dylan’s stern face when wp4webnovel.com saw how humble Vinson was. “It isn’t no big deal. Ms. Moore is someone extremely important to me. Saving wp4webnovel.com life is just like saving mine. Just go ahead and tell me what you want.”
Although Dylan emphasized the word “extremely”, Vinson’s attention was caught by another sentence.
Saving Arielle’s life is just like saving His Majesty’s life? He shot a discreet glance at Dylan.
He looks different from that man in the photo indeed. Even if his appearance were to change over twenty, thirty, or even forty years, there would still be some resemblance.
