"Leave that aside for now. I need your help." Derek stated after looking at Alicia who seemed to be lost in her thoughts. He was not willing to continue wasting time, as the more time we wasted, the more the time of Celine and Jack being together increased.

"What is it?" Alicia asked impatiently. If there was something that she really wanted to do, that was to get rid of Derek as soon as possible. After all, just his presence reminded her of the fact that he was actually being compared to Celine.

Although it was true that initially he did not hate Celine, but after this incident, he had began hating her. It was just that the level of hate that he possessed towards Celine was not that high.

Nevertheless, she did not care. If there was actually a possibility of taking care of Celine without causing any trouble that would come to affect her in the future, then, she would definitely not hesitate to do that.

It was just that, until now, Celine was currently under the protection of Jack. And more than that, it seemed that even Derek had set his eyes on Celine. For that reason, it was definitely going to be a difficult task to be able to get rid of Celine under the protection of the two.

One of them was a superhuman whose background was completely unknown, and another was a young master and a future heir to a big family of the same level as hers. Alicia could not help but get frustrated when she thought of just how difficult things had gotten.

Rather than helping her in getting rid of Celine, this idiot had gone ahead and even intended to marry her. Although that was the initial reason why she introduced Celine to him, but, the guy had not given up on her. He was actually intending to marry the two of them.

So, rather than getting rid of him, she had just increased the trouble that she was supposed to face. Moreover, she had no intention of getting rid of Celine using a method that was going to irritate Jack, causing him to hate her even more.

But now, it seemed that even if she resorted to that method, both Jack and Derek were going to prevent her from doing that. So, she was in a tight spot right now.

"I would like you to assist me with a ship. Celine has entered the stronghold domain. It is just that I am not sure about where she has gone to. So, I am intending to go around look for her. It is just that I cannot go around on foot. So, it is going to be way faster when I use the ship." Derek explained himself.

Alicia on the other hand got even more irritated after she heard what Derek had said. This guy had actually come over to her, to ask for her help in order to just after another girl? Even if she was not into him, but still, it really felt uncomfortable, considering that even the person that this guy was chasing after was the person that she really wanted to get rid of.

"Dream on! Do you think that I have the ship to give you? Not to mention the resources that are going to be consumed in order to operate the ship, but, do you believe that even my mother is going to agree to that?" Alicia snorted as she responded.

Derek blinked a little. He could see that Alicia was in a foul mood. But still, he had no choice but to get the ship from her. After all, other than getting the ship from her, he could only go back home. And once he arrived home, there was no way that his father was going to allow him to go out this soon again.

"Listen here Alicia. You are the one that gave me the information about Celine. So, why are you not helping me in getting her?" Derek asked, confused a little.

It was just then that he finally thought of something. Alicia had just claimed that she had investigated Celine. And that too, she did it personally. And if that was the case, what was the reason for her to investigate a person?

Of course, Derek did not believe that the only reason why she did that was to give him the information about Celine. He knew that the reason she gave him the information about Celine was because she wanted him to change the target. But still, she knew that that was not the only reason.

After all, according to the information that she had provided, it implied that Alicia believed that Celine was from just an ordinary background. For that reason, how did she believe that he was going to marry her?

There was definitely no way that he was going to marry a person from an ordinary background. That was not something that his father was going to agree to. And since that was the case, there was no way that he was going to change his target from Alicia to another person who was not at the same level as Alicia.

Additionally, Alicia was getting even more irritated whenever she mentioned Celine. From this, she couldn't tell that there had to be enmity between Alicia and Celine. As for what the reason for the enmity was, Derek was not sure about it.

"What is the other reason why you wanted me to make a move on Celine? Mind telling me?" Derek asked after a moment of hesitation.

Alicia on the other hand was already irritated by Derek. So, when he asked that question, she did not even think much about it when she responded.

"What other reason? Of course I want her to get away from the person that I want to get married to. Since I cannot do something drastic like going ahead to kill her, I had no choice but to look for someone that was capable of snatching her away from the person that I…" It was only after she reached at this point that Alicia suddenly realized that she had said something that she was not supposed to say.

After all, from the looks of it, it seemed that Derek had already met with Celine. And if that was the case, then, that implied that he should have met with Jack as well.

She had initially planned all of this, making sure that Jack would not be able to tell that she was related to this. But now, she had just revealed everything to Derek.

Derek was already into Celine although they had just met a few days ago. That meant that, since he was claiming that he wanted it to marry Celine, Derek must have had the intention of getting rid of Jack.

And now, she had just told him that she, another target that he had set his eyes on, was also into Jack. Didn't that mean that the enmity between Derek and Jack was going to increase to another level?

Of course, that was not something that she really cared about. She did not believe that Derek had the capability of dealing with Jack. After all, other than the fact that Jack himself was a superhuman, there was also his background that was definitely not to be underestimated.

That implied that if the two of them clashed against each other, it was definitely Derek who was at a great disadvantage.

But, what she was worried about the most was if Derek was going to mention her in front of Jack. If that was the case, then Jack might actually be capable of relating all of this to her.

It had been just a little over a month ever since she had been there, and now, there was a person who had come over, specifically targeting Celine, although this was the first time that they were meeting.

"Forget about it. I'm not helping you with the ship, and be better forget about what I just said now. Anyway, I don't care about you, and don't even think about the two of us getting married." Alicia stated before she turned around to leave.

There was no need for her to continue staying here anymore because the plan that she had initially initiated had already failed. More than that, she had to try and look for a method that she was going to solve the problem that came if Jack came to know that she was involved with the presence of Derek.

Derek immediately reacted. He grabbed Alicia's hand, preventing her from leaving. He looked at her with his eyes already red from anger as he asked, "Are you trying to tell me that you love Jack? Are you telling me that the time that he went to investigate Celine, you fell into love with him?

Are you trying to tell me that you actually fell in love with a person that is normal? Although he is considered a rich person in the normal world, what is that when brought back to the stronghold domain? It is completely nothing!

Additionally, do you believe that your parents are going to agree to the two of you being together? I am the only person that is meant for you!" Derek practically shouted as he looked at Alicia agitatedly.

Alicia on the other hand was definitely not comfortable with someone insulting Jack. So, she used a lot of force, forcing her hand out of Derek's grasp.

After that, she looked at him fiercely and said, "You better watch your mouth. To you, he might actually be a 'normal' person. But to me, he is way better than you in everything. Not just a matter of appearance, his personality is way better than yours."

Alicia was just about to leave once again when Derek prevented her by grabbing her shoulder. Alicia managed to shake his hand off her shoulder, she still heard what Derek asked.

"Can you tell me the real reason why you gave me the information about Celine?" Derek knew it in his heart, but still, he wanted Alicia to say it by herself.
