Chapter 559: Nightmare
“Auntie, auntie, no, no—!”
Haya woke up from her dream in a cold sweat. Her eyes were empty as if they had lost focus, and her hands were tightly clutching the quilt.
Joey handed her a glass of water.
She took it tremblingly and asked in a hoarse voice, "What time is it now? When can I pick up Brother Ajin?"
Joey looked at her with complicated eyes and said, "Leng Huaijin was rescued yesterday and is now living in the Leng family's villa."
"It's out, it's out, it's good that it's out," Haya muttered in a trance, and then she was about to get out of bed to see Leng Huaijin, but she fell as soon as she got down.
Fortunately, Joey supported her in time: "Your current physical condition is very poor. You should stay here and take care of yourself before going to see him. He is still in the operating room and you won't be able to see him even if you go there."
"Operating room? How is Brother Ajin? Why is he in the operating room?" Haya asked nervously, holding Joey's hand tightly.
Joey helped her sit on the edge of the bed and let her go, his eyes cold: "After spending so much time in a place like the Colosseum, isn't it normal to go in and out of the operating room?"
Haya looked dazed: "It's my fault, it's my fault. I should have asked grandma to bring Brother Jin out earlier. Brother Jin must hate me to death now."
Looking at her dazed look, Joey felt a little sorry: "Princess, you have tried your best. This kind of thing can't be blamed entirely on you. You should have a good rest first. By the time you have rested well, Lu Huaijin may have already come out of the operating room."
"Okay? Can I still be okay?" Haya looked at Joey in a trance, feeling a little helpless.
But Joey didn't ask any more questions and turned to leave.
Haya was anxious and immediately asked, "Joey, where are you going?"
Joey said calmly, "I don't think the previous incident will happen again. Princess Haya can now rest assured and have a good sleep."
In recent days, Haya always sees a human head hanging on the window when she wakes up every morning, and she is scared to the point of being in a trance and almost driven crazy.
So at her request, Her Majesty the Queen transferred Joey over to protect the princess's safety.
Now Joey felt that the matter should have ended here and Haya would not be stimulated anymore, so he planned to leave.
As for who would be the one to pull such a prank, they probably all have an idea in mind.
"Joey, do you hate me too? Do you also blame me for not testifying for my aunt?"
Haya watched Joey walk further and further away, and she became more and more panicked.
Left alone in this huge bedroom, she always felt that her aunt's eyes were staring at her everywhere, reminding her of the scene when she was a child when her aunt was framed by Ye Xiuli and made into a terracotta figurine.
My aunt was in so much pain at that time.
She had just given birth to her little brother and was treated so cruelly when she was at her weakest. However, she, the niece who had been spoiled by her aunt since childhood, was too cowardly to stand up and testify to fight for justice for her.
"But Joey, I don't dare. How can I stand up?"
Joey stopped and said in a cold tone, "Whether or not you dare is your own business. As long as your conscience is clear, no one else can blame you for your decision."
Haya's voice choked with sobs. "You know, the royal family's dignity is above all else. Grandmother cares most about the royal family's dignity. Even if I were her granddaughter and I stood up to testify for you, it wouldn't change her mind."
"Haya," Joey turned around and looked at Haya's helpless eyes seriously. If it were before, she would definitely be heartbroken, but now, he just felt annoyed when looking at her.
"No one requires you to do anything. Everything depends on your own decision. If you feel that upholding the dignity of the royal family together with Her Majesty the Queen is what your tragically deceased aunt would want, then you can do so as long as your conscience is clear."
This was the first time Joey was so cold to her, with a hint of extreme disgust and impatience.
Haya was hurt by his attitude. Joey had never treated her like that before.
It was Shen Weiyang, it must be that bitch Shen Weiyang, Qiao Yi had spoken to her last time.
She was so sad that she turned into anger and yelled at Joey, "General Joey, please pay attention to your attitude. Is this the attitude you should have when talking to a princess? I am a princess, please pay attention to your identity!"
Joey bowed slightly to her in apology and left.
This indifferent look completely stuffed Haya into an invisible powder keg, making her feel the anger in her body running rampant, but she felt suffocated and uncomfortable because she couldn't find an outlet to vent.
“Ah! Ah!”
She screamed in anger and smashed everything she could in the bedroom.
"Shen Weiyang, you've hurt me to this point, I won't let you go! I won't let you go, ah——!"
When Joey walked outside, he could still hear her screaming in the bedroom, but for the first time he was so indifferent and did not stop at all.
He went to another small building in the castle.
Wu Bai was playing with Lego inside out of boredom at the moment.
When she saw him come in, she just raised her eyelids lazily, then lowered her head to work on her building blocks again.
"Did Your Highness leave here yesterday?"
He asked.
Wu Bai frowned in disgust: "I have a name, you can just call me by my name, Wu Bai."
He hated the title of prince given to him by the royal family now.
He didn't want to be a prince, he hated everything about it.
Joey just thought he was just a child throwing a tantrum.
"Your Highness, you have a special status. There are things you should do and things you shouldn't do. I hope you understand this and don't do anything that would embarrass Her Majesty the Queen."
Wu Bai frowned, put down the building blocks in his hand, looked at him impatiently and said angrily: "What do you want to say?"
Joey took out a photo, which showed him appearing outside the Colosseum with a long bag on his back, wearing a baseball cap and a mask.
Wu Bai's eyes moved slightly, but he still looked at him calmly and asked, "What do you want to say?"
Joey tore up the photo in front of him, then looked at him with a slightly surprised look and asked, "The person who used a sniper rifle to shoot the Blood Lion and help Shen Weiyang that day, was it you?"
Wu Bo watched him burn the torn photos in the ashtray, his eyes moving: "What do you want to do?"
"I don't want to do anything," Joey said, actually just a messenger. "Her Majesty the Queen asked me to tell you that you are now the Prince of Country Y. You must be sensible in your conduct. She has let you go this time, but this won't happen again."
Wu Bai sneered, leaned lazily on the sofa behind him, picked up the building blocks again and started to put them together by himself, looking unconcerned.
"Since she has already lost a daughter, she probably doesn't mind losing another grandson."
