Chapter 261 He thought, âWhy is Cassie here?
âDoesnât she know that there are endless wars here?
âLife may be in danger here at any time. Why is she here?
âSheâs actually saving people on the street. Isnât she afraid of being targeted by Kamilaâs men?â
âMs. Yates, why are you here?â The man addressed her by her last name directly.
Cassandra frowned and thought, âDoes this man know me?
âBut I donât know him.â
âDo you know me?â Seeing that this man might know her, although she was highly vigilant, her tone was calm.
âYes, youâre classmates with my younger brother.â
This man was Harperâs nominal eldest brother, Theodore Yates.
He was adopted by the queen and the prince consort.
Cassandra thought for a moment. This man was from Zosteylor, and his younger brother and she were classmates, which meant that he was Harperâs elder brother.
She remembered that she met Harperâs elder brother at the amusement park last time, and they didnât seem to be the same person.
She thought, âThe queen has so many children.â
âI see.â Cassandra nodded.
âCassandra, come with us. Iâll take you back,â Theodore said.
1/6 Originally, Theodore wanted to get ahead of Kamilaâs men and take away the doctor. Even if she refused to join them, it would be better to persuade her not to join Kamilaâs team.
Now that he knew she was Cassie, it would be impossible for him to put her in peril.
His previous thoughts didnât matter anymore.
âDo you know where I live?â Cassandra asked.
At this time, the man behind Cassandra lost patience and looked angry. He even aimed at Cassandra with a gun and said, âYou, turn around. Look at me. I have something (to) ask you.â
Cassandra turned her head, looked at the muzzle of the gun without any fear, and replied, âWhat are you going to say?â
âCome with me. My master wants to see you.â He said this pretty clearly.
âYour fight has nothing to do with me. Iâm a Clusian, and more importantly, Iâm a doctor. Iâm just here to save people. It seems that I havenât disturbed you.â
Cassandra didnât walk to either side, and she didnât have to rely on either side to get away as well.
She just needed to wait for Kenneth to come here.
But still, she couldnât confront the tough with toughness now that she was still alone here.
Therefore, she had to buy some time first. She didnât have a gun. Only the two men arranged by Kenneth had guns.
She didnât take a gun with her because these injured people had experienced the war and were very sensitive to guns. If she put it in her bag and took it out accidentally, they might be scared.
She didnât expect that she would be surrounded by so many people.
âYou... DâDonât... PâPush... Me...â
2/6 It was clear that he wasnât good at Clusian. He couldnât even finish a sentence properly.
âBrut, sheâs just a young girl. I donât think Ms. Stark will find faults with a young girl.â Theodore took two steps forward and talked to the person opposite him in Zosteylorâs language.
âTheodore, why do you care so much about her? Iâm more interested in her now. I believe that my master will also be interested in her.â
The man thought, âIf the royal family of Zosteylor is interested in her, my master must be interested in her.
âMoreover, Theodore seems to care about this person very much, which makes it even more interesting.â
Cassandra could only understand some of their conversation, such as little girl, relationship, and interest.
It seemed like they were talking about her.
The kindness of Harperâs elder brother made her a little confused. She felt he was being too friendly.
The two of them had been talking to each other in the language of Zosteylor. Cassandra couldnât understand it, so she just sat on the ground and watched them arguing. She didnât have to do anything except for waiting for Kenneth to arrive.
Before long, several large military trucks appeared ahead. Dozens of people jumped out of the trucks and soon surrounded them.
Theodore was speechless.
They seemed to be the Clusian army.
Kenneth walked towards Cassandra in military uniform in a quite imposing manner.
He hurriedly walked up to Cassandra and asked, âCassie, are you okay?â
Cassandra smiled, shook her head, and answered, âIâm fine. They didnât do anything to me.
3/6 They were quarreling and I couldnât understand their conversation because I donât know the language of Zosteylor.â
Kenneth was speechless.
He thought, âIs it the right time to talk about this now?â
Seeing some army coming to pick Cassandra up, Theodore was still a little worried about her. But when he saw the manâs face clearly, he was shocked and said, âMr. Zelinski?â
The logo on Kennethâs uniform was the Falcon Special Operations Force.
Theodore thought, âHeâs with the Falcon Special Operations Force?
âAnd he seems to be a commanderâin-chief.
âMr. Yates, I didnât expect to meet you on such an occasion.â
Kenneth didnât expect that the person sent by the royal family was actually Theodore, a guy who was definitely no fighter.
Kenneth thought, âDid he come out to get himself killed?â
Cassandra reacted for a moment and suddenly remembered that Kenneth knew Harperâs other elder brother, so he should know this one as well.
But Theodoreâs gaze at Kenneth wasnât so friendly.
Because he had heard from Vincent that Cassieâs boyfriend was Kenneth, but he didnât expect Kenneth to be the chief of Falcon Special Operations Force.
When the Falcon Special Operations Force was dispatched before, the chief always wore a mask. But this time he didnât wear it...
âMs. Yates is a Clusian, so Iâll take her away.â Kenneth took Cassandraâs hand and was ready to leave.
Brut pointed his gun at Kenneth and said, âYou canât go!â
He said in the language of Zosteylor, âMy master has invited her. No one can take her away. She must go with me.â
4/6 Kennethâs face darkened instantly. He said in a deep voice, âMs. Yates is from the military department of Clusia. Where does Ms.
Stark want to take her? Did she ask if we Clusians agree?â
Brutâs face became gloomy as well. He knew that Clusians cared about their citizens, but he didnât expect this woman to be a member of the military department.
If he openly took away Clusiaâs soldier, it would be causing a dispute between the two countries.
Even accidentally hurting a citizen of Clusia wouldnât have much impact. At least, they could explain and say that citizen was implicated in the war. However, the nature of taking away members of the army department was different.
Brut continued, âWhy should I believe you? Do you have any proof?â
âMy presence is the best proof. Clusia wonât intervene in the matter between Ms. Stark and Queen Leanna, but if you want to take our people away, we wonât turn a blind eye to it.â Kenneth looked at Brut sternly, and his tone was firm.
âMr. Zelinski, take Ms. Yates back. Iâll handle this.â
Theodore thought, âAs long as Cassie leaves, nothing will be a problem!
âThank you, Mr. Yates.â
Kenneth thought, âIt would be the best to let Theodore handle this. I canât harm those people easily, but he can do it at will.â
Kenneth took Cassandraâs hand and strode away.
Seeing Cassandra safely in the car, Theodore looked at Brut with bloodthirsty and cold eyes.
He snatched a gun from one of his men and shot Brut straight through the middle of his eyebrow...
âYou can threaten me with anyone, but if you want to hurt Cassie, youâll have to die.â
Theodore turned around and left with his men, leaving Brut lying in a pool of blood...
