DreameNovelChapter 0842 "I'm on my way!" Suzy answered, then rushed straight to Evangeline's room.
When she arrived, it was immediately clear that Evangeline wasn't struggling physically-it was her mental state that had deteriorated.
"I just got back," Simon said anxiously as he paced near the doorway. "The moment I walked into the room, she orderedto leave." His face was tight with worry. "At first, I thought I'd done something to upset her. But even when she was angry withbefore, she never reacted like this.
"I kept wondering-was it because I cback too late? Did I let her down somehow?" He ran a hand through his hair, his voice breaking.
"But then I realized it wasn't just her. The staff... everyone seemed off. They all looked heartbroken.

Simon's voice caught in his throat, and his eyes turned red. "How could something like that happen while I was away? Why didn't you callright away?" Suzy's throat tightened. "I... I'm sorry, Simon. I really am." She had no other words.
She hadn't protected Evangeline, and now they were all paying the price.
Simon shook his head, his brow furrowed. "Don't do that. I'm not blaming you. I just need you to remember-no matter what happens, you have to callimmediately.
"If you'd toldsooner, I could've cback sooner. Maybe... maybe she wouldn't be like this right now." He slumped into a chair, his jaw clenched with regret.
Simon had spent the afternoon inspecting a neighboring city on Evangeline's behalf.
The assignment had been hers, but she'd felt unwell, so Simon went in her place. Who could have known that the moment he stepped away, disaster would strike? If only he'd stayed by her side, maybe this never would have happened.
The more Simon thought about it, the more regret consumed him.
"If I'd some, I would've sent else. They must have known I wasn't here-that's weld everything so perfe "Exactly!" Suzy agreed, her expression grim.
"Whoever's behind this knew our movements down to the last They knew precisely when they e would be alone" Her fists clenched tightly. "I'm almost certain the culprit is still here, inside the palace." "Still here?" Simon's brow furrowed.
"You mean they never left?" "No," Suzy said, shaking her head.
"They were never an outsider. I checked all the surveillance footage from every entrance and exit.

"No one suspicious entered the palace today. Which means...they were already here from the start." "I see it now," Simon said, his voice sharp with realization.
"I'll get a full search team on it immediately." "It won't help," Suzy warned.
"I already tried. We cup with nothing. Whoever it is they've been e planning this for a long time.
"But we still have Serena in custody.
Leave the rest to me,promise I'm find the truth and get justice for En Evangeline." "Do you really think Serena is involved?" Simon asked, his expression skeptical.
"I can't shake the feeling that she might be innocent. She's been locked up for months. How col she orchestrate something like this?" Suzy's eyes darkened slightly at his words. "I'm sure of it. Serena is the key to everything." mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliI0fiflO&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
