Chapter 69 Why is everyone targeting him like this!
Eli opened his mouth, glanced at the various juices squeezed into juice on the table, and the several bags that had been turned into gift packs by the mechanical insects, and then decisively chose to shut up.
Because there's not a single point that can be refuted.
The fruits and vegetables that dominate the market now are all thanks to his younger brother.
He really is rich!
His brother was the first in the empire to juice even the most expensive fruits.
As Eli thought this, he silently drank another bottle of sugarcane juice.
"By the way, Achi, remember to change the special attention settings on other platforms or contact methods... Major General Letekar doesn't care, but it wouldn't be good if he saw it..."
Tan Chi glanced at Eli silently, which made Eli suddenly regret whether he had been too talkative.
As he was pondering how to salvage the situation, he saw Tan Chi silently take out his personal terminal and ask, "Big brother, can you tell me about the more popular and less common ways to communicate right now..."
Eli: "..."
...
As evening approached, darkness fell.
Timothy waited and waited at Lanetta's house, but no bug came to take him back.
He stood up irritably and rushed straight to the front door.
"What's going on with you guys? I told you to go see Elizabeth, and you didn't even go?!"
Timothy glared fiercely at the two female soldiers in front of him. "I'm warning you, I am your future lord, the general. If you offend me now, you'll all regret it later!"
The two female soldiers looked at Timothy with a bit of speechlessness.
If it weren't for the fact that their Crown Prince had already sent a message, they would indeed have been a little nervous.
But now they are not afraid anymore!
"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Garwan, His Highness the Crown Prince said that you can return to the Garwan family only after the investigation into the Ranetta family's matter is completed. Furthermore, the Garwan and Ranetta families will be treated equally, with no special privileges whatsoever."
When the female soldier said this, her words were firm and resolute, showing absolutely no mercy to Timothy.
Timothy immediately exploded, "Impossible! How could this be! I'm his future ruler! How could he do this to me?!"
He gripped the tightly closed gate bars and roared angrily at the two female soldiers, "Go and call Eli here! I want to see him right now!"
"I apologize, Your Highness Garwang, His Highness the Crown Prince has been very busy with military affairs lately and has not had time to come."
The female soldier glanced at the frantic Timothy and spoke coldly again.
Their eldest prince probably doesn't want this powerful ruler anymore.
Yes, Timothy seems to have an ambiguous relationship with Michele.
Their Crown Prince loves his younger brother so much, how could he possibly be willing to marry a male insect with an ambiguous relationship with Michael?
Thinking this, the female soldier added, "Your Excellency Garwan, if you have any questions, you can actually go to His Highness the Crown Prince in person. We are only responsible for guarding and do not have that much power. Please understand."
They said they wanted to understand, but they showed no respect for him whatsoever. How could Timothy not have noticed?
Although these female soldiers had treated him indifferently before, they were still very respectful. Now, how could he not understand?
Is Eli dumping him?
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been directly blacklisted by Elijah.
Did he discover his relationship with Michele?
Or is this Michele's plan?
He was already disliked by Tan Chi, and didn't want to be a maid for the Berg family, so he set his sights on him.
Timothy was even more devastated when he thought about the torment he had endured these past few nights.
He shouted towards the door again, "Did Eli say when the Lanetta family matter will be resolved?"
Without even turning her head, the female insect spoke directly: "Didn't we just say that His Highness the Crown Prince doesn't have time to deal with the Laneta family's affairs? Let them conduct an internal investigation to prevent certain insects from seeking out married insects from other insect families and affecting the relationships between other insect couples!"
Timothy: "..."
Sure enough, it was because of Michele.
It's all because of him! If it weren't for him, he wouldn't have made Eli angry!
Timothy, unable to bear it any longer, headed straight for the restaurant where Lanetta was.
To his surprise, Michele was also sitting at the table.
His brow furrowed visibly before he looked at Ranetta and said, "Mr. Ranetta, I think we need to have a serious talk."
Lanetta had been well taken care of by Timothy these past few nights, so he naturally treated Timothy much more gently.
He picked up the tablecloth, wiped his mouth, and asked, "Please speak, Your Excellency Garvan."
Timothy sat across the table and said, word by word, "I just heard from the guards at the Crown Prince's gate that the Lanetta family is conducting an internal investigation into this matter. They emphasized that they are worried that some insects might seek out married insects from other insect families, affecting the relationships between other insect couples..."
His words were practically a direct mention of Michele's name.
Michele looked at Timothy in disbelief, seemingly not expecting him to say that so directly.
Lanetta was a little surprised, but the thought of being locked up at home for the past few days because of Michele made him even more annoyed.
However, since Timothy was still there, he could only ask again, "Then... what are Lord Garwan's thoughts?"
"I think if we want to get out, then naturally we should give the Crown Prince whatever he wants. What do you think?"
Timothy stared intently at Ranetta, seemingly waiting for his answer.
Ranetta had already lost his previous favor towards Michele, and now that he heard that he was the culprit, he was even less inclined to protect him.
“I think Lord Garvan is right.” With just one sentence, Lanetta had essentially defined Michele.
If it weren't for the fact that he could still contact Dr. Froot, he wouldn't have cared whether he lived or died.
Michele certainly understood this, which is why he didn't say anything. If he begged for mercy now, Ranetta might punish him even more severely to save face.
His resentful gaze remained fixed on Timothy, but the other seemed completely oblivious, paying no heed whatsoever.
Michele gritted his teeth, his fist clenched tightly under the table, his nails digging deep into his flesh, the sharp pain intensifying the resentment in his heart.
Why is everyone targeting him like this?!
Tan Chi is one, Timothy is another—do they really like tough, hard female soldiers that much?!
He couldn't bring himself to harm the future Insect Emperor, but he had plenty of ways to deal with a mere Major General!
Isn't Tan Chi choosing Letekar now?
He will let him know that his choice was wrong!
Achoo!
Just as Letkar stepped into the temporary room, he suddenly sneezed. He frowned, looking at the Dill beast blood smeared on his body, and for the first time felt annoyed...
