Oliver looked at her, his body unmoving, not even flinching.

“How do we take it further?” he asked, his tone calm, his eyes clear, as if completely unaffected.

Ashley took his hand and moved it toward her chest. Oliver pulled his hand back and gave a cold smile. “That trick won’t work on me.”

Ashley smiled seductively. “This isn’t a trick. You are handsome and majestic. No woman could resist you. I simply admire you.”

“Is it appropriate for a concubine to say such things?” Oliver emphasized the words “concubine” heavily.

“Appropriate or not depends on how you see it. You’re in the court, I’m in the inner palace. Together, we could be unstoppable. I guarantee you’ll achieve unprecedented success.”

“Aren’t you afraid I’ll report this to the King?” Oliver stared at her.

“You won’t,” Ashley laughed, her charm radiating. She leaned closer, their faces inches apart. Oliver could see the ambition in her eyes.

“You are a smart man. You won’t say anything because it would be useless. With just my face, no one would believe I’m a wicked woman. If I turn the tables and accuse you of trying to take advantage of me, do you think the King would believe you or me?”

“Ashley, you read people well. You’re indeed clever. No wonder Kamari trusted you so much,” Oliver sneered.

“Winner takes all. Kamari is dead. People must look forward. You are a man of ambition. You won’t be satisfied with your current position. And I can help you.”

“The contents of this box can also help me,” Oliver said indifferently.

“It’s not the same. This box might elevate your status, but it won’t make you second only to one person.”

“Who is this one person you speak of?” Oliver’s eyes flickered as he asked.

“That person is whoever I decide,” Ashley said arrogantly.

“You’re very confident. But right now, you can’t even control your future. Such confidence seems a bit hollow. Besides, the world has never been ruled by a woman.”

“Isn’t Queen Mother ruling the world now? What she can do, I can do too,” Ashley said smugly, though her tone was filled with envy.
