Chapter 358 Revelations 3

"I'm sorry. I think I heard the wrong thing..." she said. "Did you say 'the Queen'?"

He nodded. "You are right. I want you to succeed the throne. I plan on changing the leaders.h.i.+p and make you the first Queen in the history of this country. I will change the laws."

"A war is coming… and I want you to be here, with me. Be the next Queen." He added.

"I'm sorry … but how is that possible?" She asked. "I might be a Li, but… I am a n.o.body."

"A n.o.body?" He scoffed. "Who told you that?"

She shrugged. "I can't be a Queen, choose another person to lead this country."

"I am not a leader. I would help you defeat them, but promise me that you will find someone else," she added.

"I can't do that. You are the heir. The legitimate one." He emphasized. "Did you see the Crown Prince? Do you think someone like that can lead this country? Moreover, he is not a Li."

"So you know?"

"Of course… the Queen thought that she has fooled everyone by sleeping with me when she thought I was drunk. What she did not know was that it was all planned by Li Jun beforehand. He wanted to trick her into thinking that she has fooled us."

Jiang Yue stared at Gideon while toying with her hair. She was used to doubting the existence of blind loyalty. In her reasoning, no one would be able to become so loyal to the point of giving their lives for their ideals. Those people, who said that they were loyal, had their own reasons, their own objectives. Yet, what this man in front of her was showing was the exact sign of blind loyalty.

This man, would drink poison and do whatever it took to fulfill his duty. For Jiang Yue, that was utter foolishness. However, she also knew that Gideon must have been brought up that way. He must have been trained to serve and protect his King. Jiang Yue would call him foolish, but Gideon would call this fealty, an extreme faithfulness. He would call this his mission.

"I am not a Queen." She reiterated. "Find someone else… from the main Li Family..."

"That is another thing that I wanted to talk with you… the Elders want to see you and maybe discuss some important things with you."

Jiang Yue did not answer him, instead, she looked at her phone and clenched her jaws. "She is here. This conversation is not over. They are planning something for the next Cabinet Meeting. I am letting you know that because I am planning to act at that time as well." She declared before getting up and gathering her things.

Gideon just stared at Jiang Yue, speechless at the conviction of her words. Then, he turned his gaze to the door, where voices could be heard, outside of the room. From the voices, he could say that the Queen was indeed here, creating ruckus outside of the meeting room. Once again, he wondered how did Jiang Yue gain access to that information.

He let out a sigh before looking at Jiang Yue. "Let's talk about collaboration. Are you planning to impress everyone during the meeting?"

"If I was not… I will not be here," she smirked at him.

"Tell me about that device," he stated.

"I will create something that would be added to your military drones. It's not a device but a program, which will enhance the capacity of its carrier to spy on their enemies. If I install that program on your drones, it will instantly boost your ability in surveillance and reconnaissance. I will tell you in a little secret, this is going to be a revolutionary project for this country… not even the West can rival this technology."

Gideon leaned back in his chair, his eyes never leaving Jiang Yue. "You are indeed your father's daughter."

With his words, Jiang Yue lifted her chin, as her lips curled into a smile. "The Kim Family wanted to cause trouble in my life. With this creation, I will show them that I am not someone to be trifled with. I don't care about leading this country. All I want is to know the true ident.i.ties of my parents."

"a.s.sure me, once I defeat the Kim Family, you will tell me everything that you know about my parents." She added. She knew that Gideon was still hiding some information from her.

The latter stared at her, clearly considering her offer.

"If you dare to lie to me, and I will make sure to wipe out the whole Li Family together with the Kim Family," she said, her eyes narrowed, lips curled into a chilly smile.

With her words, Gideon slowly nodded. "I will. I promise."

And right after he finished his words, the door was abruptly opened. Revealing a woman in her fifties, her hair was in a perfect updo, her brows furrowed as she pointed her finger at Jang Yue.

"Arrest that woman!"
