“Haha…”

Sitting on the chair, Alyssa hugged her legs with a gloomy look on her face.

She has been locked up here for quite some time.

After hearing the news about the civil war in the empire, Alyssa became restless and kept trying to contact her mother. She also knew that the Ryanfort Company was the commercial pillar of the empire, and the civil war would inevitably affect them. But no matter how Alyssa tried to contact her mother, she couldn't get through, so she had to run back by herself.

Then he was imprisoned here by Director Haider.

Now Alyssa didn't know what to do. She had learned from Director Haider that the humanoid mechas used by the noble coalition army were manufactured and provided by the Ryanfort Company. This made Alyssa even more uneasy. Although Director Haider told her that once the nobles took control of the empire and ended the civil war, the Ryanfort Company would rise rapidly, but how could Alyssa believe such nonsense!

Besides, the Ryanfort Company is already the largest commercial supplier in the empire. How can it rise to the top? Let them rule the empire?

But on the other hand, if the aristocratic faction fails, what awaits the Ryanfort Company will be a catastrophic disaster!

Alisa is not a child anymore. She has studied in Liberl for several years and has a certain understanding of politics and economics. The only thing that made her feel relieved was that according to Director Haider, her mother did not participate in the coup, and in order to prevent her from getting in the way, her mother was also imprisoned by Director Haider.

But...is it really that simple?

Alyssa remembered that Fang Zheng had taught her about the dangers of monopoly to a country, especially for a large company like Ryanfort. If it cooperated happily with the royal family, it would be fine, but once problems arose, the government would definitely find all kinds of reasons to weaken and suppress it. Now that Ryanfort had such a big handle in the hands of the royal family, Alyssa didn't know what to do.

Just because his mother didn't mean it and she is also a victim, will His Majesty the Emperor not hold her accountable?

What made Alyssa even more panicked was that not long ago, Director Haider found her and asked her to cooperate with the nobles, and promised that as long as she was willing to cooperate with the nobles, her mother would be safe and the Ryanfort Company would remain the same.

"You don't really think that if the regular army wins, your Ryanfort Society will be safe and sound."

Now Alyssa still remembers what Director Haider said to her at that time.

"You have no way out. If the United Army of Nobles does not win this civil war, what will happen to you and your mother? As long as you are willing to nod and formally join the United Army of Nobles, then everything you are worried about will not happen again!"

Director Haider's words were very convincing, and Alyssa was shaken by them.

Of course, the so-called joining the nobles' united army is not just an empty promise. According to Director Haider, Alisa must make an engagement with Rufus, one of the four famous families. This is where Alisa hesitates. If she can only sacrifice herself to protect her mother and the company, then she... should she do it?

Join the United Army of Nobles and make a marriage contract with the four famous families?

But how old am I... woo...

“Boom!!!”

Just as Alyssa was daydreaming, suddenly, there was a dull collision sound outside the door, followed by a burst of gunfire, which then disappeared in an instant, and then there was dead silence.

What happened?

Hearing the sound that suddenly appeared and disappeared, Alyssa became nervous. She stood up, looked towards the door anxiously, and then looked around - her weapon, the guided bow, had been taken away, and there was nothing here that could be used as a weapon. However, to be on the safe side, Alyssa grabbed the chair beside her and looked ahead carefully.

Then, under Alyssa's gaze, the locked door opened with a click, and then a person walked in.

"……Why?"

Seeing the familiar figure, Alyssa was stunned.

"Hey, it looks like you're doing pretty well."

Fang Zheng glanced around, then smiled and greeted Alyssa. Alyssa just stared at him blankly, and then the next moment, she suddenly dropped the chair in her hand and rushed towards Mr. Fang Zheng.

"Mr. Fang Zheng!!!"

While screaming, Alyssa threw herself into Fang Zheng's arms and burst into tears.

"Okay, okay, it's okay. Look, I'm here, right?"

While comforting Alyssa, Fang Zheng also stroked her head with a smile.

At this moment, Fei, who was standing next to her, stared at Alyssa, then she lowered her head and looked at her chest.

The woman’s breasts were so big just now, but now they can be flattened so much?

Is it so elastic?

Completely different from me...

"By the way, Mr. Fang Zheng, why are you here?"

After crying in Fang Zheng's arms for a while, Alyssa finally relaxed a lot. She raised her head and looked at Fang Zheng curiously. In response to Alyssa's question, Fang Zheng chuckled.

"Is that even a question? Because I am a member of the United Noble Army."

"Why?!"

"The United Nobles have bought off Starlight Technology, and they also want you to marry me, hehehe..."

"Really?"

Hearing this news, Alyssa felt flustered, but her cheeks turned red at the same time.

In other words, the person I’m engaged to is Mr. Fang Zheng… right?

Doesn’t seem bad?

Just when Alyssa didn't know what to do, Fang Zheng smiled and pinched her cheek.

"Okay, no more jokes. I am now on the same side as the regular army. I am here to suppress the Ryanfort Society and rescue you."

"Why?"

"Why, are you frightened?"

Fang Zheng learned about Alyssa's disappearance and engagement from Director Haider. After Fei dismantled the broken mecha in no time, Director Haider was so scared that he collapsed on the ground and confessed everything. So Fang Zheng naturally knew that the noble coalition wanted to marry Alyssa to control the Ryanfort Company, so he brought it out for fun.

“Really!”

Hearing this, Alyssa's face turned red, and she punched Fang Zheng's chest hard.

"Mr. Fang Zheng, why are you teasing me?"

“Because it’s fun.”

“Haha…”

Facing Fang Zheng's answer without hesitation, Alyssa was completely speechless. But she also knew that Fang Zheng was such a person. He had told her about Silent Hill in the thick fog, thrown them into a weird castle, and told them ghost stories all night long after she and Ellie saw a ghost in the name of "increasing their courage"... Well, he had a long criminal record.

"That's right, Mom!"

At this time, Alyssa also thought of her mother.

"Mr. Fang Zheng, please go and save my mother. She has also been imprisoned by Director Haider."

"Oh, but I guess that's not necessary."

Hearing Alyssa's request, Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders and turned his head. Alyssa also hurriedly looked outside the door, and saw a woman with short golden hair who looked very imposing and fierce standing there, and behind her stood a purple-haired maid.

"Mom, Sharon, are you all okay?"

Seeing this scene, Alisa shouted happily, and hearing her call, the purple-haired maid bowed with a smile.

"I'm fine, thank you for your concern, miss."

"Of course I'm fine."

Compared to the maid, Alyssa's mother seemed speechless.

"Look at what you've done, you stupid daughter."

"Stupid, idiot?"

Hearing her mother's words, Alyssa was also stunned.

"That's right, idiot. You said you were doing fine in Liberl, why did you come back?"

"Of course I'm worried about you!"

"But what can you do when you come back alone?"

"Well……"

Faced with her mother's questioning, Alyssa was speechless for a moment.

Indeed, what could she do if she came back alone?

"If you had stayed in Liberl, I would have a hundred ways to deal with a fool like Haider. But you ran back here and fell into Haider's hands, and he used you as a hostage to force me... You are really stupid. To be honest, I am a little worried that you would be stupid enough to accept the marriage proposal of the noble coalition army."

“But, but…”

Faced with her mother's calm analysis, Alyssa immediately refuted it.

"But mom, if the noble coalition fails, what will happen to Ryanfort? No matter what, our company has provided weapons and equipment to the coalition. By that time..."

"I will be responsible at that time."

Alisa's mother replied coldly.

"But this has nothing to do with you, mother. They made the decision on their own..."

"Not being strict with subordinates is also a crime."

Fang Zheng shrugged.

"Moreover, the Ryanfort Society and the Nobles have been flirting with each other for so long, it is impossible for Ms. Irina to be unaware of it. In short, she cannot escape this responsibility."

"Then, what should we do?"

Hearing this, Alyssa became anxious, while Fang Zheng laughed.

"Have you ever heard of 'making amends'?"

"To make amends?"

"Yes, the 4th Armored Division has been fighting hard so far, but in terms of logistics, their reserves are not sufficient. So, I think..."

Having said this, Fang Zheng looked at Ms. Irina.

"Shouldn't the Lanefort Society do its job well?"

"no problem."

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Ms. Irina nodded slightly.

"I will fully cooperate with all actions of the regular army."
