Chapter 99 If you succeed tomorrow, I will reward you handsomely!

Scarlett spent the night with Gra in the flying ship.

The flying ship has a dedicated lounge.

A transparent skylight faces the bed.

She lay on the bed, her arms behind her head, her eyes wide open, counting the twinkling stars in the dark sky over and over again.

In the second half of the night, I became increasingly sleepy.

Scarlett slowly closed her eyes, her mind still thinking about what she would do tomorrow.

…

…

In the cab.

Gra turned on his light brain, clicked on the only contact, and was about to send a message when the other party, as if with telepathy, sent a message first.

Morton: [How's the situation? Still haven't gained her trust?]

Gra: [I have lived up to the prince's expectations and gained Scarlett's trust. Let's spend tonight together.]

Morton: [Hahaha, well done! This prince was right. I told you, with your looks, she'll definitely like you. Serve her well, and once you gain a deeper level of trust, we'll be ready to execute our plan.]

Gra: [Yes, Prince.]

Morton: [Hey hey hey! Why call me Prince? Call me Highness! I'm telling you, once I eliminate both her and Sophia, I'll be the Queen Mother's sole heir. Then Huldah Palace will be mine! Just wait and enjoy the good times together!]

Gra was silent for a moment and turned to look at the lounge.

The ruby ​​on his headband sparkled, and his handsome eyebrows and eyes were slightly red.

Guerra: [Yes, Your Highness.]

Morton: [Great! Call me that from now on!]

Gra's eyes flickered: [Your Highness, Scarlett has been grounded.]

Morton: [Grounded? I haven't heard of it. When did it happen?]

Gra: [The emperor issued an edict at noon today, prohibiting anyone from leaving without permission.]

Did Scarlett make a mistake again and make the Queen angry?

Morton was extremely excited when he saw the news. He took a few seconds to digest it before replying: "Do you know what it is?"

Gra: [I heard that he had a dispute with His Majesty over a commoner.]

Morton: [Civilian? Which civilian? Do you know him?]

Guerra: [I don’t know him.]

It was common for Scarlett to be under house arrest, but thanks to her mother's favor for her, she would be released within a few days.

Morton felt a little jealous, but he didn't think much about it because he wanted to talk about something else.

Guerra sent him another message.

"Oh, Your Highness, there's one more thing. Scarlett isn't staying at Huldah Palace right now. She sneaked out with me. We're going somewhere else tomorrow. Should we take this opportunity to catch her in the act?"

It’s so important!

Morton said excitedly: "Gela, you are truly my lucky charm! When I defeat Scarlett, I will definitely reward you handsomely!"

Gra said calmly: "Your Highness, I will send you a message tomorrow. Please remember to bring someone with you."

Morton was stunned: [Why tomorrow?]

Gra asked in return: "Your Highness, don't you want Scarlett to never have a chance to turn things around?"

Morton's heartbeat quickened: [Think!!!]

Gra curled up the corners of his lips into a smile and briefly told Morton about his plan.

After hearing this, Morton understood what he meant and transferred 100,000 star coins to Gra on the spot as a reward.

Then he said with joy: "If you succeed tomorrow, Your Highness will give you a generous reward!"

Gra raised an eyebrow, accepted the star coin, and said respectfully: [Yes, Your Highness.]

…

…

The news of Scarlett being under house arrest has not been announced to the public yet. She took advantage of the information gap and went to the research institute again.

The permissions are still there.

As soon as she entered the institute, she went straight to Hill's office and said straight to the point, "I want to see Kristen."

Hill was not surprised by Scarlett's sudden visit, nor was he surprised that Scarlett wanted to see Christine.

He put the documents in front of him aside, folded his hands on the table, and asked with a smile, "Is it urgent, Your Highness? If not, I can arrange it for you. Christine's home is in the underground world, and it will take some time to get there."

"urgent."

Scarlett said, "Arrange it as soon as possible."

The chip in her optical computer was connected to the royal court's monitoring device, and she was afraid that the royal court would find out that she was not in the Herda Palace.

By then, you will be charged with additional crimes and may really lose your freedom.

Hill stood up and responded, "Okay, Your Highness, please wait a moment."

Scarlett was not idle. While waiting, she went to see Ashley again.

Ashley was surprised to see her, pointed at her face, and almost shouted, "Scarlett, why are you here? Aren't you grounded?"

fortunately.

Scarlett covered his mouth in time.

I dragged him aside and carefully explained a few things to him.

Ashley's eyes are slightly round, like a deer's, and watery, and hidden behind the lenses, they look even brighter.

After hearing Scarlett's words, her eyes became even rounder, as if they would fall out of their sockets at any time.

He frowned and looked at Scarlett in disbelief, "Scarlett..."

Scarlett interrupted him: "Okay, stop talking nonsense, I don't have much time left, remember what I told you! My safety depends on you!"

"Why do you do this?" Ashley asked puzzled.

Scarlett rolled her eyes at him and said, "I've already said it, for the sake of my own innocence."

Ashley didn't believe it and grabbed her wrist, "Scarlett, do you still need to prove your innocence like this?"

Scarlett didn't want to say too much nonsense, so she broke free from his hand and scolded him, "Because you all don't believe in me! I can only rely on myself."

Ashley was stunned for a moment, his brows raised and furrowed even tighter, "Who said I don't believe you?"

If he didn't trust her, he wouldn't have given her access to Lab 27, let alone allowed her to enter the institute multiple times under the pretext of visiting him.

When did he say he didn't believe it?

He had clearly always believed in her.

"Alright, now is not the time to talk about this. If you trust me, then do what I tell you to do. I've placed all my hopes on you."

Scarlett patted his shoulder and said in a light tone, "Don't let me down, Your Highness."

Ashley looked at her, not knowing how to answer. He clenched the things in his hand and said after a while: "Scarlett, you'd better not mess around. We are husband and wife. If you die, I will die too."

Scarlett laughed heartily, "Don't worry, Your Highness is absolutely sure that you will not die."

She blinked and jokingly said, "But it's not certain if you're injured. You should prepare some more medicine for yourself."

"You!" Ashley glared at her.

Scarlett shook the bracelet on her wrist and said, "Quick, quick, take me off your blacklist. I'll transfer the money for your medical expenses. Don't blame me for anything you do when you get hurt and can't afford to see a doctor."

Ashley closed her eyes.

I was so angry at Scarlett's indifferent look that I was speechless.

Wait until he has calmed down before communicating.

Hill came and stood not far away. He smiled at Scarlett and bent down to make a "please" gesture.

Scarlett also smiled and walked towards Hill.

"Scarlett."

Ashley suddenly called out to her.

Scarlett turned around and asked, "What? Was he blacklisted?"

Ashley hummed, and said, "Be careful."

Don't get hurt, don't let anything happen, he will do what she asks.

Scarlett smiled brightly and waved her hand generously, "I understand. I'll be back soon. Nothing will happen. Just do your experiment obediently."

It was the tone of coaxing a child again.

This time, Ashley didn't mind. With a lump in his throat, he managed to utter a hard "OK."
