Chapter 501
At that moment, as Jefferson's father continued speaking with determination and urgency into the phone, the man on the other end of the line responded with the confident, measured tone of someone who had done this kind of dangerous work many times before and knew exactly what he was getting himself into."Well, you have absolutely nothing to worry about when it comes to my capabilities or my discretion," the man said smoothly, his voice carrying the self-assurance of a professional who took pride in his dark craft. "You know me very well by now, and you know exactly what I am capable of doing when properly motivated and given clear instructions."There was a slight pause before he continued with even more emphasis."And you should also know by now that I will not treat this assignment like some kind of game or joke, and I certainly will not allow myself to get caught or fucked up over any operation I undertake, because my reputation and my freedom depend on maintaining the highest lev

Uncle Festus jumped in immediately, not wanting to lose the momentum they had finally gained after all this careful maneuvering. “No problem at all, absolutely no problem whatsoever,” he said with an expansive gesture that suggested unlimited generosity. “You can literally request anyone that you want to be present with you. We don't have any issue with that at all.”His tone was magnanimous, almost indulgent, as if he were granting her the most reasonable request in the world. “Whatever makes you feel comfortable and safe is perfectly acceptable to us.”But Princess Naomi was sitting there fuming internally, her royal composure barely containing the frustration that was threatening to explode. She absolutely was not having this - not at all. She couldn't understand why Uncle Festus and his wife were giving Tyler's mother this kind of free hand to dictate terms and make demands as if she had any real power in this situation.The free hands they were offering her were just too much,

Upon hearing her husband's persuasive offer, Uncle Festus's wife immediately seized the opportunity to pile on more reassurance, her voice taking on that warm, concerned tone that women often used when trying to convince other women to trust them.“You really, really need to consider what my husband just said,” she urged, leaning forward with an expression of seemingly genuine care. “Yes, he's absolutely right about everything. If you're worried that something might happen to you during your treatment, or that being away from your regular medical team could be dangerous, you shouldn't be afraid of that at all.”Her voice became even more soothing, more maternal, as she continued weaving her web of false security. “You see, we are going to take complete care of you at the palace. We'll make sure that no harm literally touches you while you're under our watch. I personally will make sure that nothing bad happens to you - you're going to be okay, you're going to be perfectly fine, and

Upon hearing Tyler's mother's medical excuse, Princess Naomi's eyes flashed with a mixture of frustration and disbelief. She wasn't about to let this opportunity slip away so easily, not when she had come this far and invested this much effort into cornering Tyler's mother.“So what exactly are you suffering from that's so severe?” Princess Naomi asked, her voice taking on a sharper edge despite her attempts to maintain royal composure. “Is your condition really that serious that you cannot sacrifice just one single day for me? Just one day to demonstrate what you're capable of creating, so that I and all my distinguished friends can witness your talents firsthand?”Her tone became more pressing, more demanding, as she leaned forward with obvious determination. “Is that really too much to ask? We're talking about one day out of your entire treatment schedule - surely your medical team could accommodate a brief delay or rearrangement for such an important royal engagement?”Princess
Chapter 487
The moment Tyler's mother's polite but firm rejection left her lips, the atmosphere in the elegant VIP section shifted dramatically. Princess Naomi's jaw literally almost dropped open in shock, her royal composure cracking for just a split second as she processed what she'd just heard.Uncle Festus's wife felt like she'd been slapped across the face. Her mind went completely blank for a moment, unable to comprehend what Tyler's mother had just said. This wasn't supposed to happen. People didn't say no to opportunities like this - especially not people who supposedly came from nothing and had everything to gain from royal patronage.Both women had been prepared for negotiations, maybe some hesitation about timing or logistics, possibly even some attempt to ask for more money or better terms. But an outright rejection? That was something they absolutely hadn't seen coming, and it threw all their carefully laid plans into complete disarray.Princess Naomi's mind raced as she tried to pro
Chapter 496
Upon hearing Tyler's mother's straightforward response, Princess Naomi's expression shifted into what could only be described as a diplomatic smile - the kind of carefully crafted facial expression that royal family members perfected for situations where they needed to appear gracious while feeling anything but satisfied.The smile didn't reach her eyes, and there was a subtle tightness around the corners of her mouth that suggested she was far from pleased with the lack of useful information she'd just received. But her royal training kicked in, reminding her that losing composure in public was never an option, especially not in front of potential witnesses.“There's no problem at all,” Princess Naomi said, her voice maintaining that polished tone of royal politeness even as disappointment flickered behind her eyes. “I wasn't expecting much detailed information anyway.”But then, as if a lightbulb had suddenly illuminated in her mind, Princess Naomi's demeanor shifted slightly.
