BXBX NOVEL Chapter 791 - He Was Just A Puppet
Chapter 791: He Was Just A Puppet
Diya bit the corner of her lips, and bean-sized tears fell.
Her eyes reddened as she looked at the pair of figures in front of her. She only felt that every step Jiang Xuecheng and Su Wan took seemed to be trampling on the bottom of her heart!
Seeing Diya’s resentful and aggrieved look, Director Fan finally reminded her softly.
“Miss Diya, His Highness has already left. Why are you crying and angry here?”
Diya was currently in a fit of anger. She had always been used to being held high and mighty. Now that she was like this, Director Fan still dared to point fingers at her!
The more Diya thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. The resentment in her heart grew even more.
“I’m crying. It has nothing to do with you. Why do you care?!”
Director Fan was speechless in his heart. It was just that because Fiennes had repeatedly told him to look after his sister and not let anything happen to this rich young lady, otherwise, did he think that he was willing to meddle in this kind of business?
He really could not understand. They were both children of the Duke of Siswell. Although Fiennes, the elder brother, had a poor background, he was publicly recognized as shrewd. On the other hand, it was Diya who was pampered and raised like a child.
In Director Fan’s view, although Diya was pampered and raised, she was already considered a cripple. She had the temperament of a young miss and only knew how to cause trouble. However, he did not think about why the emperor would be so distant to her.
If she was not the direct daughter of the Siswell family, who would be willing to tolerate her?
Director Fan sighed in his heart. He glanced at Diya indifferently and finally turned around to leave.
“Miss Diya, you should think it through yourself. Crying is the most useless. Even if you really like His Highness, he won’t agree to this marriage. But Miss Diya, have you ever thought about who has the right to take the lead in His Highness’ marriage?”
After Director Fan said this, he also drifted away.
Hearing this, Diya was suddenly stunned on the spot.
That’s right. How could she have forgotten that the person who could truly suppress everyone in the God’s Palace was not the emperor, but the high priest!
From the beginning until now, the emperor’s attitude towards her had always been neither warm nor cold.
Now, wasn’t her status as a fiancée also given to her by the high priest?
What she wanted to hold on to was not the emperor, but the high priest. As long as the High Priest came back to officiate the marriage between the two of them, what could not be postponed?
By that time, they would already be married. It did not matter if the emperor was happy or not, it was useless!
Diya believed that as long as she married the emperor, one day, she would be able to melt the emperor’s heart!
Although Diya was not very smart, she first looked at Director Fan’s words, coupled with the reaction of Jiang Xuecheng, she finally reacted.
The so-called scorpion incident was probably just a smokescreen. The emperor wanted to use this opportunity to break off the engagement with her, right?!
Diya suddenly felt enlightened, and her entire person became clear-headed.
Diya snorted coldly. She reached out to pick a small red flower on a branch at the side. She stretched out her slender fingers and shredded the petals into pieces.
It was as if this flower was her irreconcilable enemy.
Su Wan, just wait and see. The emperor can protect you for a while. I don’t believe that the Emperor can protect you forever!
After Diya figured out these things, she immediately rushed home and began to write letters to the high priest to complain.
She recounted everything that happened after Su Wan came back. At the end, she did not forget to bring up the venomous scorpion incident this time. She also emphasized how aggrieved she was and prayed that the high priest could come back as soon as possible.
If this continued, she really could not wait any longer!
Diya wanted an outcome. Only the high priest could give her such an outcome!
...
To Diya’s surprise, the high priest’s reply was exceptionally quick this time.
However, she seemed to have mistaken in the main point. She was actually paying attention to that venomous scorpion...
Why didn’t she ask about the emperor about his attitude towards her? It was none of her business for that scorpion to go out and sting people!
Diya felt strange in her heart. However, she did not know much about the incident with the venomous scorpion this time. She could only give a vague outline.
However, the result was indeed in line with Diya’s expectations. The high priest said that she would be back in two or three days.
Diya was overjoyed. She thought that the high priest had also realized the seriousness of the problem. She must have come back to help her get rid of the vixen.
She hugged the communication device with joy. Her entire person was immersed in an inexplicable sense of victory.
Su Wan, just wait and see!
Your good days are coming to an end.
Diya looked at the green plants by the window that had been blown by the wind. A smile of victory appeared on her face.
...
A few days later.
God’s Palace, the Emperor’s study.
Jiang Xuecheng was looking through some information when he suddenly saw the red bronze wooden door not far away open. A tall and arrogant figure appeared outside the door, holding a pure white Persian cat in their arms.
There was only one person in the entire God’s Palace who could enter without asking for his permission.
Jiang Xuecheng had long expected this great Buddha to return early, but he didn’t expect it to be so soon.
Hearing the cat’s lazy cry, Jiang Xuecheng put down the magnetic pen in his hand and stood up calmly.
He slightly raised his eyes, and his line of sight immediately swept over the high priest’s face.
The high priest was wearing a vintage dress in autumn fragrance. Her beautiful eyes were silent like the night, with an indescribable arrogance and indifference.
The mole in the right corner of her eye was charming, which slightly weakened the high priest’s arrogance.
When Jiang Xuecheng was looking at the high priest, the high priest remained unmoved. However, the Persian cat in her arms suddenly moved twice.
The cat’s green eyes, which were like glass beads, flashed. It seemed to be curious why Jiang Xuecheng was so bold to look directly at its master.
When the high priest heard this, she snorted coldly and quickly approached Jiang Xuecheng with the cat in her arms.
“I’ve only been gone for a few days, and you’ve already caused so much trouble for me.”
Although he was reprimanded, Jiang Xuecheng’s expression did not change.
Jiang Xuecheng casually glanced at the cat from the corner of his eyes. Then, he slightly nodded at the high priest. His tone was calm and indifferent. Although it did not seem respectful, there was nothing wrong with it.
“You came back really early. Have you finished your business?”
Jiang Xuecheng’s words were actually meant to stab the high priest.
Although Jiang Xuecheng did not know what the high priest was going to do, he knew that the high priest was unsuccessful when he saw the high priest’s furious expression.
This woman wanted to control his marriage and make him the so-called emperor of the God’s Palace. She was just using him as a puppet.
Once he lost his use, he wouldn’t even know how he died.
Jiang Xuecheng had felt that something was wrong in the past. After the mental personality treatment and the sudden appearance of the venomous scorpion, the doubts in his heart grew bigger and bigger.
Even though all his memories were so clear, every time he had a flashback in his midnight dream, he felt as if he had really forgotten something...
