Chapter 128

Andre rushed to hold the door still.

Lance pushed it open slightly. Yet Andre shoved it right back.

“Andre?” Lance’s voice turned dark, “What the hell is going on here? Why don’t you want me to go in?”

There was cold sweat on Andre’s forehead. He was so nervous that he started to stutter, “F-Father took his clothes off already…He is not decent to meet you, My King.”

“Your father and I go way back. I can handle a little indecency.”

Lance pushed the door one more time.

“Let me in, Andre,” he said with a warning tone. “Or I am breaking the door down.”

What to do?

Janet’s mind was racing. Her heart was thumping against her chest.

She could probably get out through the window before Lance walked in. She could save herself.

Yet Andre and Dora were still here. And Lance would find out that Danton was murdered, which contradicted to their whole plan.

Most importantly, she couldn’t abandon Andre and Dora.

But were there any other options?

Her time was running out.

Right at this crucial moment-when Janet thought that Lance was about to break in and see everything-another series of urgent footsteps came from the outside.

“My King!” a guard cried in an urgent voice, “There is fire on the North side of the campsite!”

“What? What happened?”

“We don’t know yet. But a few people said that they saw someone setting the fire. It was arson!”

“Yes! Right over here!”

Lance’s voice became “Under,

my fucking nose? Show me the way!”

Before Lance left with the guards, he said one last sentence to Andre through the door, “Get your father up. And tell him to meet me at the fire!”

The three of them waited for their footsteps to disappear into the distance before letting out a long breath that they had been holding.

“Fuck…”

Andre wiped his forehead, relieved, “That was fucking close…That fire really saved
