A second chance with my billionaire husband

Chapter 1968: Chapter 477: Ambitions Pave the Way, Turbulence Across the Land

Anna let out a cold laugh and continued to entice, "Oh? Young Master Lorde? Is it the Young Master Lorde we know?"

Gan Wei’er suddenly went silent, as if afraid of saying the wrong thing.

Anna said softly, "Little sister, don’t be afraid, we won’t tell anyone."

Gan Wei’er glanced at the group, her eyes as clear as an innocent little rabbit, causing them to feel a guilty sense of a big bad wolf bullying a little rabbit.

Anna coughed and said in the gentlest tone, "Don’t worry, we’re just curious, we won’t tell anyone, I swear. Isn’t that enough?" As she spoke, she raised her hand.

Gan Wei’er quickly grabbed her hand, "Well, alright, you all don’t look like bad people, you even helped me out earlier. So, I’ll tell you, I’m actually here with our Princess to Country Q, mainly to get engaged to Young Master Lorde. Mr. Sangque even invited our Princess to dinner a few days ago, and I got to tag along. Mr. Sangque was so kind and friendly, especially to our Princess..."

A sudden "crack" of a glass shattering startled Gan Wei’er, and she saw Xi Lin holding glass shards between her fingers, blood dripping down, shocking everyone.

"Oh, your hand is bleeding."

Xi Lin smiled gently, but her eyes were like a deep, unfathomable pool, and the curve of her lips was soft, her voice sending a chill down everyone’s spine, "Is that so, then congratulations to your Princess."

Gan Wei’er’s face broke into a proud smile, "Young Master Lorde is also very good to our Princess, he visits her every day. When she sleeps till noon, he waits till noon without complaint. He was supposed to come to tonight’s banquet too, but he couldn’t because the Princess got sick and he had to take care of her..."

Xi Lin’s smile grew even more peculiar, causing Gan Wei’er to shiver suddenly and look at her with fear, "You... what’s wrong? Did I say something wrong? This hasn’t been made public yet, you promised not to spread it, or the Princess will blame me..."

"Little sister, don’t worry, we won’t spread it. Thank you for telling us these things. Have fun tonight, you all, come and take good care of this lady."

Anna called over a few young people, both men and women, who then surrounded Gan Wei’er and led her away.

Xi Lin stood in the shadows with a gloomy face, making her an intimidating sight.

Anna glanced at her, "Xi Lin, what’s the deal with this Princess who came out of nowhere? Why didn’t we hear any news before?"

The cute-faced girl, Feiwen, whispered, "I only found out from my dad’s conversation. I didn’t expect it to be true. This suddenly appeared Country Bauhinia is amazing, being able to form a bond with Mr. Sangque. Sister Xi Lin, don’t you have no chance now?"

Anna gave her a glare, "So what if she’s a Princess? It’s just a tiny place. There are many Princesses in this world. Don’t you know that even a Princess of Country Y would only be qualified to shine shoes for our Xi Lin? That crappy Country Bauhinia isn’t even worthy of shining her shoes."

Feiwen secretly pursed her lips and stayed silent, silently feeling a bit gleeful. Xi Lin’s family background is deep, considering herself the top socialite, always disregarding others. Her infatuation with Lorde was no secret, but Lorde never paid her any attention. After joining the military, he never returned. Xi Lin could only console her lonely heart by constantly changing boyfriends, but her love for Lorde never ceased. Now that Lorde is back, there were rumors that Sangque was preparing to choose a wife for him among the noble ladies, and Xi Lin started to feel restless. Tonight’s birthday banquet was actually prepared for Lorde, and she even planned to take advantage of his drunken state to accomplish her goal... Who knew Lorde didn’t show up, and the reason he didn’t come was because of another woman.

Proud as Xi Lin, how could she accept this result?

But thinking about that Princess, both lucky and unlucky. Lucky to have gained Young Master Lorde’s love, but unlucky to have such a terrifying rival in Xi Lin. Xi Lin’s methods... Just thinking about them was terrifying.

"Enough," Xi Lin coldly snapped.

Anna closed her mouth but couldn’t help asking, "Are you really going to watch him marry another woman?"

"Can’t bear it, so what?" Blood flowed profusely from her palm, but she no longer felt the pain.
