Identity fraud
It's true that Anrita likes Knox, in fact she likes all male partners.
It's just that the partners occasionally compete secretly, thinking that the wife prefers Eugene more, dotes on Cody more, is more in awe of Landry, and even takes better care of Knox who has difficulty integrating into the team.
Although no one knows what happened when Saint Anrita was kidnapped by Knox, she does have deep feelings for Knox.
When Charlie said this, there was a hint of envy in his eyes.
He always felt that he was too ordinary among Anrita's partners and had no advantages at all.
He sat on the spacious sofa, leaned forward, clasped his hands unconsciously, and whispered:
"If we can't determine the coordinates of Caster Island, we won't be able to rescue them in time. The longer we wait, the greater the uncertainty. What if Knox is really auctioned off..."
His voice dropped, his eyes filled with worry, as if he had seen Knox in danger.
Gar, who was originally leaning casually against the wall, suddenly widened his eyes upon hearing this. He took a step forward with a look of horror on his face and blurted out:
"Oh my god! Knox is a married man, he has always been chaste!"
The exaggerated expression and tone made the atmosphere a little awkward for a moment. Everyone looked at Gal in silence without responding.
Begwell stood aside and sighed softly, with a sad look on his face:
"Knox's spiritual sea has been marked by his wife. If he is forcibly marked a second time by another female whose spiritual power is far inferior to his wife's, his spiritual sea will collapse."
Charlie looked up at the ceiling, as if thinking, and said after a moment:
"Nox is very powerful. Don't forget that his beast form is tentacles. He might be able to save himself."
Even so, his tone was uncertain.
In fact, privately, he did not want Saint Anrita to come into contact with the people of Caster Island, fearing that it would cause more unknown troubles, but he did not express these thoughts out loud for the time being.
They have not yet figured out who is behind Caster Island and the other party's true purpose in luring out Saint Anrita.
It would be fine if he just asked her to help channel his mental energy, but he was afraid that the other party would want to monopolize her and imprison her like the Snow Owl Tribe did in the past. That was absolutely not allowed!
The four people discussed in the office for more than an hour, but no feasible plan was reached by the end of the meeting.
In the end, because time was tight, Charlie left first. He wanted to lead the mecha team to support Eugene to prevent Eugene from being attacked by interstellar mercenaries while gathering information.
Valua and Gal also had their own tasks and left Begway's office with worries.
In fact, Begway did not regard Knox as his own, but he had to consider Anrita's feelings.
During the busy days, Begwei hasn't been home for more than ten days.
Today it was his turn to accompany Anrita, which was the only leisure for him in his tired life.
He missed his wife every day and longed to be with her all the time.
After carefully handing over the pile of work, Begwe dragged his tired body out of the magnificent yet depressing royal castle.
The sunlight outside was glaring, so he raised his hand to block it. After taking a deep breath, he took out his communication device and called Anrita with great anticipation, but Edmund's voice came from the receiver.
Begwei was slightly stunned: "Edmund, how are you recovering now?"
When Edmund heard Begway's voice on the other end of the phone, his heart skipped a beat and he felt a strong sense of guilt.
When he woke up, he heard about the terrible rumors circulating on the Internet.
It was said that he participated in the auction of females on the black market and cruelly abused females, causing them to suffer a mental breakdown and fall into a coma.
Edmund quickly explained:
"Your Highness, with the comfort of my wife, my spiritual sea has recovered. However, the recent online rumors that I participated in the black market auction of females and abused females are all false!
Your Highness, you know that I am fully packed with training and missions every day and have no time to do those things."
He became more and more excited and spoke faster and faster.
In fact, Edmund knew in his heart that his only free time had long been filled with thoughts of Saint Anrita.
He thought about Anita day and night. Her gentle eyes and sweet smile kept him awake for countless nights.
Begway rubbed his brows and said in a deep voice:
"Edmund, I know everything you said, but why did they choose to target you? If it had nothing to do with you, you would have only needed to come forward and prove yourself. They wouldn't have had to resort to such a crude trick."
Edmund's voice suddenly became low, filled with gnashing anger:
"Your Highness, although I didn't do this, it's related to me. I suspect it was probably done by my stepbrother Lauren.
He's my stepmother's son. After coming to my house, he's been using my identity to go out and about. I suspect he's using my identity to participate in activities in the black market."
He continued with a guilty tone:
"My stepbrother's spiritual power level is not high, but he has always wanted to find a high-level female to be his wife."
"Females are rare and precious. He has made no outstanding contributions to the empire, nor does he have a stable job. How could the White Tower accept his appointment? So..."
Begway's eyes darkened. He got on the aircraft, marked the seaside castle where Anrita was, and started the automatic driving.
He clenched his fists and spoke through gritted teeth, "So you're saying that he wanted to find a high-ranking female to be his wife, and since he couldn't find one in the Empire, he went to the black market and used your identity to participate in the auction of females?"
Edmund sighed, "Yes, Your Highness, but it's just my guess right now. I need to confirm it. Once I get to the hospital and interrogate the guy, to confirm it's him, I'll contact the people on Caster Island and go there myself."
Begway's face was grim: "You don't have to go, leave this to Gar."
Edmund's family is now being monitored by Gar and his men.
After all, they are a family, so it is inevitable that they will be restrained during the interrogation. Once something goes wrong and they are bitten back, it will become a stain on Edmund.
Edmund's eyes flashed with gratitude: "Thank you, Your Highness. I will contact Gar later."
Begway nodded and looked out the window: "It's been several days. Now that you have recovered, is your wife still with you?"
When he mentioned his wife, his voice was more concerned.
Edmund looked at Anrita beside him. She was watching the planet news with a frown on her face.
Edmund felt guilty and stroked her hair gently, full of heartache.
Anita looked up and rubbed his palm.
Edmund said softly:
"Yes, Your Highness. I will leave as soon as you return and return to the military command center to reunite with Gar to discuss Lauren's matter."
"Now that Knox is away and Anthony is preparing for the Navy exam, Cody will be responsible for taking care of the two mermaid babies. Landry is researching the drug Dorothy injected me with and has plunged into the lab."
He wanted to return to the army earlier, but although Anrita had many male partners, no one could come back to accompany her at the critical moment.
"It's only ten. Everyone's busy, so it's not that many!"
