Chapter 1606

Chapter 1606 Not In Favor Of The King “Sannie, I’m just worried about you and Vinson, but if duty calls, I’ll not stop you two from leaving.”

Susanne looked at her and continued, “But I want you and Vinson to take good care of yourselves, and please watch out for your safety. You two are my children. I’d be devastated if something bad happens to any of you.”

Arielle was touched by her words. “Thank you, Mom. Don’t worry. Vinson and I will return in one piece.

I promise,” she replied, her heart and voice brimming with gratitude.

Susanne said nothing in return and merely stroked her daughter-in-law’s hair gently.

A corner of Vinson’s lips quirked up when he came downstairs and saw their interaction.

“Vinson, Sannie said she faced two assassination attempts in Turlen. Make sure you protect her since you’re going to be with her,” Susanne exhorted her son as soon as she saw him coming downstairs.

The man responded with a smile of resignation. Come on, Mom. That goes without saying.

“Don’t worry, Mom!” he reassured.

While the three were having small talk, Susanne suddenly asked about the political situation in Turlen.

She then learned that Arielle’s father was fighting for power against her grandmother. Upon finding out that Dylan was at a disadvantage at the moment, she began to worry.

“Wouldn’t he be helpless now that you two are away?” Susanne became even more anxious the more she thought about the matter. “Since my injuries have mostly recovered and Vinson has deployed people to protect me, you two should head back to Turlen as soon as possible!”

“It’s all right, Mom. There’s no need to leave in a hurry. I wish to bring a few doctors along as there’s a shortage of medical support in Turlen. It’s my dad’s wish to hire a few Chanaean doctors and bring them over,” Arielle said while holding Susanne’s hands.

“I need to bring some men over as well. It’s difficult for us to do anything when we don’t have our people to mobilize,” Vinson chimed in.

Susanne decided not to voice her opinion anymore since the couple had plans in their minds. Despite having urged Vinson and Arielle to get back to Turlen to support Dylan, deep in her heart, she still wished they could spend a few more days with her. Once they leave, I know I won’t be able to see them in the next few months.

Meanwhile, at the palace in Turlen, Sybil stood before Dylan’s desk with a grim expression.

“Your Majesty, we do not have the upper hand in the current situation. General Matthew and the others have decided to support the queen mother.”

Dylan’s expression was dark. Though he had gradually regained some power in the last two years, no one dared to side with him, afraid of offending Nancy as she had always been Turlen’s ultimate decision maker.

This country belongs to my family. Those who continuously pledge their support for the queen mother must be blind!

“I’ve heard you!” Dylan massaged his temples as he was experiencing a migraine.

At the same time, Lawrence invited Harvey over to the Wynter residence to analyze the political situation in the country.

Harvey’s eyes were dark as he explained, “The current development is not in favor of His Majesty!”

The young man was bewildered by the limited power and resources that the king of Turlen had at hand.

In other words, the king was nothing but a puppet monarch.

Lawrence bobbed his head in agreement. “That’s why I wanted to discuss this with you. Are there ways for us to build up Dylan’s support so that he could rival the queen mother?”

Harvey narrowed his eyes when he heard the question. That’s a tough row to hoe.

“Since General Matthew belongs to the queen mother’s camp, let’s convince him to support His Majesty,” he proposed.

Lawrence instantly shook his head.
