Chapter 698: Lost
....Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Mary said this to deny his ident.i.ty as the crown prince so that no matter what he said later, it would be useless.
Unfortunately, the people present would not let this happen. They were all people who often came to the palace to attend banquets. They knew very well what the crown prince looked like.
Moreover, it had not been decades. The crown prince had left less than two months ago. There was no way they would not recognize him.
However, Mary seemed to have gone crazy as she shouted, “Hurry up and arrest this person who’s pretending to be the Crown Prince.”
“You know very well who I am. If you want to capture me, how are you going to deal with the fake king sitting there?” The crown prince pointed at the subst.i.tute.
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Mary quickly denied it. “Don’t talk nonsense, you lunatic. I’ve always been by my grandfather’s side. How can he be fake?”
The n.o.bles were also watching. They really could not see anything wrong with the king. His appearance and figure were all the same as before.
Perhaps something had happened in the royal family again. The members of the royal family had been fighting fiercely two days ago. They did not expect the crown prince to rush back and interfere.
The crown prince looked at Mary coldly. “This subst.i.tute listens to you. Naturally, you’ll say that he’s real.”
“Everyone, think about it.” The crown prince faced everyone. “My father is decisive and magnanimous. He definitely won’t have such an expression.”
The subst.i.tute was currently curled up in his chair, afraid that someone would notice him. He looked worlds apart from the king of the past.
It had to be known that when the old king was young, there was a large-scale riot in the country. He personally led people to quell the chaos.
How could someone who wasn’t even afraid in the rain of bullets be so frightened?
Mary didn’t expect this subst.i.tute to be so disappointing. After all, he was someone who had attended many official meetings on behalf of the king. Why didn’t he learn the demeanor of the main character at all?
John stood up to support his daughter. “Father was seriously ill previously, so he’s not in good spirits. Don’t spout nonsense here!”
“You’re clearly the fake one, yet you’re still trying to distort the truth here. I think you just want to s.n.a.t.c.h the throne,” Mary said.
The father and daughter echoed each other. They wanted to label the crown prince as someone with ulterior motives as soon as possible so that the subsequent plan could proceed smoothly.
Seeing that he was only one step away from the throne, he could not let anything happen.
The crown prince really did not expect them to be so naive. He smiled and looked at the Marshal. “Then who do you think I am?”
The Marshal bowed to him and greeted, “Your Highness.”
This was an acknowledgment of his ident.i.ty, and Mary and John instantly became jokes.
The n.o.bles could also tell that today was the last moment of the battle for the throne. The king on the stage might really be a fake.
Henry and Annie did not say anything. Although they hated John for using such methods, everyone had a part to play in the matter of the fake king. If they jumped out now, they would definitely be punished together. It was best to push the blame to John.
Mary knew that there was no way out for them. They could only die on the hill that the king was real. Otherwise, the crime they committed would be equivalent to treason.
“No matter what, the king is sitting here. He has already said that he wants to make my father the crown prince. Don’t tell me you don’t even listen to the king?” Mary said anxiously.
The crown prince looked straight at her. “Mary, say that again. Is he really the king?”
Mary felt guilty at the question, but she forced herself to say, “Of course he’s my grandfather.”
The crown prince nodded and rushed forward to grab the collar of the subst.i.tute and throw him down. “My father had already pa.s.sed away before I left. Now, he’s lying in the hospital morgue. You actually said that he’s the king. Could it be that he can be revived after death?”
The subst.i.tute did not expect the crown prince to attack directly and fell to the ground before he could struggle.
Just as he was about to stand up, he heard what he said. He knew that he could not pretend anymore, so he sat on the ground with an ashen expression.
Mary started to say more, but John took her arm. “Child, we’ve lost.”
Mary couldn’t accept this outcome at all. “We didn’t lose.” With that, she took out a knife from her bag and ran towards the crown prince. As long as he died, everything would go according to plan.
Under the stimulation of failure, Mary had completely lost her rationality and didn’t think about the consequences at all.
Just when everyone thought the crown prince was going to get hurt, Sophie lifted her skirt and kicked her.
Mary was kicked in the waist and rolled several times on the ground. The knife in her hand flew somewhere, showing how powerful the kick was.
Jiang An smiled and said, “You’re really skilled.”
John quickly went to see if his daughter was injured. The n.o.bles retreated in unison, afraid that they would be implicated.
