Victoria arrived at the main palace and could not help but shiver when she locked eyes with Martin.
“Uncle…”
Martin looked sullen as if he had lost all hope in her.
Victoria looked around—the guards seemed to be General Harris’ men. It was easy for one to figure out why Martin
had summoned the team to the palace at such a time.
She bit her lip and forced a smile. “I wonder what it is that you summoned me here?”
Martin took a deep breath to suppress his rage and waved to get the guards to leave.
Soon, they were the only people left in the main palace. In reality, Martin still cared about her dignity. After all, he
was the one who had brought her up.
“We’re the only ones left.” His voice was deep as he glanced at Victoria with sharp eyes. “Tell me the truth!”
Victoria pouted. “I don’t know what you mean, uncle.”

hurt Alexander, making him go through this crisis. What exactly are you doing!?”
“Uncle, what makes you think that I did it?” Victoria denied it. “Ha! Don’t tell me you think I’m jealous of Alexander?
He’s my brother by blood! What’s the benefit for me to do that?”
“Yes, I just wanted to ask you that! What benefit do you get out of it!”
Martin gasped for breath, his chest heaving up and down. His voice came out in a hoarse whisper. “When you and
Alexander were just children, you entered the palace. I held both of you in my hands and climbed the stairs… I
made a vow to myself that I would care for you as if you were my own, and I kept that promise!
“But why is he grateful, yet you are not? You’re going all out to destroy him, even to destroy the entire royal
family!”
“I…” Victoria’s lips moved, and her voice shook. “Uncle, you have no evidence!”
“Evidence?” Martin could not believe that she refused to admit it until she was faced with grim. He scoffed and
tossed a brown folder.
Victoria opened the folder and saw many documents regarding the spam accounts, payment methods, and bank
accounts she had used.
She widened her eyes and inhaled sharply.
“Are you giving up now that you’ve seen the evidence?” Martin glanced at her. “You think you did everything
perfectly and that nobody would find out?”
She sat on the ground, drenched in cold sweat.
Martin had indeed dedicated considerable effort to investigate those accounts. However, with Jim’s assistance,
gathering the evidence became effortless, like a piece of cake.
Upon first encountering the evidence, Martin found himself reluctant to believe that it was Victoria who was
responsible.
“I can’t believe that I spent so much effort to raise a person like you,” he mumbled.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMartin was consumed by a mix of emotions—troubled, angry, and filled with self-blame. He reproached himself for
failing to properly educate Victoria and for not being able to protect Alexander.
“You’re wrong, uncle.” Victoria got up from the ground slowly and revealed a crazy smile. “I’m removing the
trouble for the royal family to be doing that!
“What did you say?”
“What makes Alexander worthy of the throne!?” Her eyes gleamed with madness. “He is not an ordinary man. He
doesn’t deserve it!
“Are you asking all men in Southeast Aciatic to copy what he does to make him the king? What would Southeast
Aciatic be by then?
“Uncle, if my aunt was still around, she’d support me!”
“Shut up!” roared Martin. “You’re mad… You’re completely mad!”
He pointed at Victoria, his finger trembling, before yelling to summon the guards. “Take her out!
“Since you like listening to your aunt, stay in your palace to reminisce about her all you want!”
