Chapter 104
Monka stood foren for a long time.
She knew exactly who the “Demon Prince” was, and Jessica said she wanted to marry him.
Monica mulled it over for a while. Setting aside the fact that Leon’s mask made him look a bit stary, in truth, he actually seemed pretty good to Jessica.
At the tournament that day, he had gesinely helped her.
Monica had seen it all with her own eyes. But still…
“Ms. Yates, Prine Leen… is too complicated. He may not be suitable for you! What Monica really wanted to say was that the royal family was too complicated. If possible, it was best to never consider royal men again.
That situation had shown them clearly, Marrying a prince or noble would always mean sharing a husband with other women in the household. And that was something Jessica could never accept.
Monica said, “Back then, when you were still very young, you fell for Waldo. There were a lot of things you
you hadn’t considered yet.”
Monica knew her words were blunt, but they were tr
true.
After this heartbreak, it was time for Jessica to see things clearly
Monica continued, “Whether it’s Waldo or Leon, their residences will never have just one woman. So, maybe it’s time we stopped considering men like them altogether,”
She had expected Jessica to protest or argue Unexpectedly, Jessica simply nodded and responded softly, “Okay”
Monica was a bit stunned. Jessica really took her words to heart.
But then Jessica saw her dazed expression and smiled, gently reassuring her, “Ater being hurt once, I’ve seen things clearly, I won’t consider any man of royal blood again.”
Monica asked, “What about Prince Malik?”
Jessica replied, “He got beaten half to death by Prince Leon last night. I doubt he’ll be bothering me again anytime soon.”
At least he was staying away for now. That’s all I nee
Jessica still didn’t fully understand what Malik was thinking, but as long as he didn’t come pestering her that was all that mattered. Whatever came, she would deal with it as it came.
“So it really was Prince Leon who beat him? Then that pool of blood outside. Monica didn’t even need to finish. It was most probably Leon’s.
Monica understood now. It was no wonder Jessica had been dreaming about Leon.
Jessica waved her hand, clearly not wanting to discuss last night any further.
Monica said nothing more. After years of following/Jessica, their bond was already rock–solid.
Even without being told, Monica had already guessed much of what happened.
She didn’t ask, but inside, she still felt a bit uneasy.
As they were heading out, Monica suddenly said, “By the way, Last night Priscilla left a letter and tried to leave the city.”
Jessica frowned. “Left letter and tried to leaver

Monica nodded. “She lingered around the city gate all night in the and Waldo tored her back. This time she didn’t cryer scream, just looked, Carn
“You seem to know quite a bit. What a waste that you didn’t become a Spy Jessica laughed,
Monica gave her a look. “All this is because of you, Ms. Yates. I’ve been huning those skills since childhood.”
With a clever and formidable lady like Jessica, Monica couldn’t afford to be some clueless sweet girl. She needed a bit of ability. Otherwise, she would have been fired ages ago.
Monica asked, “Ms. Vates, do y
you think Priscilla really wanted to leave?
Jessica replied, “She had Waldo’s command token. If she truly wanted to leave, why hover by the city gate all night?”
Monica scoffed. Her face was hill of disdain. “Knew it. She was just putting on a show!”
All that talk about being pure–hearted and different from the rest was bullshit. in Marica’s eyes, she was just another scheming woman.
She couldn’t help muttering, “What kind of war god is Waldo anyway? He can’t even see through such obvious tricks? Growing up in the palace didn’t make him wise, just made him stupid!”
