Eagle’s Glory

Chapter 782 78, act on one's own accord

"Your Majesty, can you let Agnes and I talk alone first?"

Alice was silent for a moment and asked Agron.

Originally, Agron could have completely ignored this request, but the beautiful woman with blond hair and blue eyes in front of him had a gentle temperament, which made the young man reluctant to refuse rudely.

It didn't matter anyway, so Agron agreed to her.

"Of course, I'll go out first."

"No, no, how can I drive you out?" Alice hurriedly stopped Agron, "Agnes and I will go inside, please wait a moment."

The so-called "inside" refers to a small room in this suite. She turned it into her own lounge and would take a temporary rest when she was tired.

"Okay." In this case, Agron had no objection. He half-lay on the sofa, then picked up a document on the table and browsed it casually.

Alice got up from the sofa and motioned her sister to come with her. Although Agnes still looked a little embarrassed, she still obeyed her sister's call.

Soon, the two sisters came to the room together. There was a recliner in the room, and incense was placed in the closet. The window also faced the garden. The warm spring breeze kept pouring in from the window, mixing the fragrance of flowers and incense, making people feel relaxed and happy.

But Alice didn't have the leisure time at the moment. She looked at her sister nervously and asked. "Agnes, what's going on?"

"I don't know more than you." Agnes replied with a wry smile, "Your Majesty won't discuss what he wants to do with me."

"But you are the person involved." Alice was a little puzzled, "Didn't he discuss it with you beforehand?"

"No." Agnes answered honestly, "Maybe he is sure that I won't object at all."

"Then will you object?" Alice asked.

This time Agnes was silent for a moment, but soon responded, "...No."

"Why?" Alice asked.

"Does this need a reason?" Agnes was a little confused. "He is His Majesty, and our family is loyal to him. He has the right to arrange my work as he wants. I just need to do it."

The answer of her sister made Alice not know how to respond for a while.

In theory, this is indeed an impeccable and correct answer, but she knew that if it was her sister before, she would never think so.

But what can she do?

The sister is right. Now her family and husband's family are loyal to His Majesty, and she herself is also receiving His Majesty's favor. In this case, since His Majesty has made it so clear, she can't overturn and has no right to overturn Aiglon's opinion.

But she felt that she couldn't stop talking about this.

She was worried that her sister was still too young and naive to see the danger.

So, she carefully reminded her sister.

"Agnes, things are not as simple as they seem on the surface..." She tried to lower her voice so that the young man outside would not hear. "Do you really think he keeps you by his side just for the so-called 'protection'? He has plenty of guards around him, and he is so skilled, why does he need you to look after him all the time?"

Before her sister could answer, she continued, "It is obvious that he covets you, so he has to find a seemingly reasonable excuse to keep you by his side..."

Perhaps because she felt that what she said was a bit "disrespectful", she quickly backtracked, "Of course, I am not saying that His Majesty will definitely have ill intentions, but think about it, what will outsiders think? If I feel something is wrong, then outsiders will only have more vicious speculations. When rumors spread, what will happen to your reputation? Agnes, this is not a joke, you'd better seriously consider the consequences."

After that, she looked at her sister eagerly, waiting for Agnes' response.

Unexpectedly, even though she said it so bluntly, Agnes did not show any anxiety or anger. Instead, she looked at her sister with a relieved look, "So, you are persuading me to refuse?"

"That's not what I said... I just advise you to think carefully and not be blinded by the superficial honor." Alice instinctively dodged, but her words hinted at her meaning, "I know that you have been angry with me because of the previous things, but in this matter, I ask you to trust my judgment. This will definitely make you fall into trouble and ruin your reputation... Why do you have to ask for trouble?"

Having said this, Alice was already committing a crime. She really tried her best to persuade her.

She also sincerely hoped that her sister would not fall into the fire pit - after all, she was different from her father and father-in-law, two old guys who wanted to use Agnes to flatter and win favor. Even if she did not have the favor of her sister, she had already gained the trust and reuse of the two majesties. She had no motivation or need to "sell her sister for glory".

However, her efforts were destined to be useless at this time.

Because in her eyes, her sister, who was the most pure and the least likely to be corrupted by the secular world, would eventually change a little in this dangerous world - or make some inevitable choices.

"It's too late," Agnes whispered.
