The powerful leader was tough on the outside but soft on the inside; the aloof major general fell fo

Mihawu hasn't been downstairs for a long time.

At this moment, sitting in his wheelchair, facing Duke Jolai's questioning, he curled his lip and said, "Father, how am I supposed to explain this? It is true that Bora is my lady-in-waiting, but I had no knowledge of what he did."

"You don't think this has anything to do with me, do you?"

Duke Jolai was speechless.

Mihalyu's words were flawless.

Although Duke Jolai also suspected that Mihalyu might have been involved in the matter, he had no proof.

They had no evidence.

General Derek had a cold expression on his face.

He has already had the insects interrogate Bora to find out if Mihalyu ordered him to do this.

But Bora has consistently denied it.

No matter how severely they tortured him, they only got one answer: denial.

But Derek's intuition told him that Bora was hiding something.

It is not uncommon for female servants to take the blame for all the sins in order to protect their male masters.

If they reveal the male behind them, the male insects will not only escape severe punishment.

Instead, after the male insects have received their mild punishment, what awaits them is insane torture and revenge.

Miha was glared at by a gaze filled with anger.

He remained unfazed, smiling as he looked at Derek. "General, the way you're staring at me, do you also suspect that I'm behind this?"

Derek gave a heavy snort, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Mihalyu, unusually, showed no displeasure; instead, his smile widened. "Mere suspicion isn't enough; you must provide evidence, otherwise this is slander."

If they had evidence, Mihav wouldn't be sitting here so comfortably.

Derek's face cooled considerably; he was clearly helpless against Mihalyu.

Mihav had anticipated this outcome. He smiled slightly and looked at Duke Jolai, "Father, if there's nothing else for me, I'll be going upstairs."

A group of insects surrounded the hall, and Mihaly calmly maneuvered his wheelchair, preparing to leave.

"etc,"

Are you sure this has nothing to do with you?

Miha stopped, frowned, and looked back.

The insect that made the sound was Cen Li.

His gaze was extremely sharp.

When Mihajlovic collided with that icy blue that seemed to see right through the insect's thoughts, his heart skipped a beat for no reason.

However, he quickly regained his composure.

They have no evidence whatsoever; they are simply bluffing.

Mihav believed that Bora would not betray him.

He raised his chin. "Of course it has nothing to do with me."

"Don't you have any evidence?"

This sentence is his go-to shield.

Miha's face is now covered with dark spots, and it's impossible to find a single patch of skin without blemishes.

Any insect looks creepy.

Cen Li's voice rang out.

"I have no evidence."

Mihav's breath suddenly deflated.

That's it?

I thought Cen Li could come up with something special.

Mihalyu scoffed, "Then don't block my way out."

Cen Li glanced at him, "But I reasonably suspect that you are the mastermind behind this."

Mihaly frowned at him. "You only have doubts."

Cen Li dares to bring up baseless suspicions so openly?

He's insane!

Aren't you afraid that Duke Jolai will reprimand you?

Mihaw glanced at Duke Jolai's expression, which showed no sign of anger.

He felt a sudden surge of anger.

Does the father just let him be slandered?

Or does the father also believe that he was the one manipulating things behind the scenes?

Mihav's feigned smile vanished completely, and his eyes darkened considerably.

They completely forgot that their guesses were all correct.

He had already come to see himself as a completely innocent victim.

Miha looked at Cen Li and continued.

"And brother,"

"Your doubts hurt me deeply. You can't put all the blame on me, my servant."

Mihawu emphasized the word "brother" with great force, as if it were being forced out from between his teeth.

It carries a strong sense of clenching teeth and gnashing of teeth.

Renzo, who had been silent until now, interjected, "Cen Li, while I understand how you feel, how can you suspect your brother without any evidence?"

"You have no grudge against each other, so he would never do anything to harm you."

No enmity or grudge?

Cen Li stared straight at him. "Who said I have no grudge against him?"

"I was the one who made Mihajlovic who he is today, so he certainly has reason to hold a grudge against me."

The hall fell into a moment of silence.

Renzo's eyes widened in surprise.

What's wrong with Cen Li?!

By putting this matter out in the open, isn't he afraid that Duke Jolai will find out what he's been doing?

Renzo couldn't help but steal a glance at Duke Jolai.

Duke Jolai's expression changed repeatedly. Hearing Cen Li's words, he couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean by saying that Mihaly's current state is all your fault?"

General Derek was unaware of this matter.

His gaze lingered on Miha's face and legs, then turned to Cen Li, his eyes revealing worry.

Could it be what he's thinking?

Cen Li did not hide anything, "Mihawu and I have the exact same symptoms, which were caused by the drug I administered."

Duke Jolai, who had already been subjected to multiple shocks today, raised his voice, his tone distorted with emotion, "Why would you drug your brother?"

Cen Li frowned. "Of course it's because..."

He got his revenge.

Miha interrupted him before he could finish speaking, his neck flushed red. "Cen Li, what nonsense are you spouting? When did we ever have a grudge against each other?!"

He was very excited.

If it weren't for the fact that he was in a wheelchair and his legs were weak, Miha would have jumped up and covered Cen Li's mouth with both hands to stop him from talking nonsense.

Mihajlovic was being far too excited.

All the insects noticed his unusual behavior.

Now all eyes were on Mihajlovic.

Inquiry, doubt, unease...

Cen Li couldn't possibly have thrown dirty water on himself, so the only explanation is that what Cen Li said was true.

Miha'u hurriedly denied it, and his anxious manner made the insect think even more.

Duke Jolai's gaze was deep. "Cen Li, you tell me, what exactly happened?"

Miha's heart tightened.

Duke Jolai was clearly determined to get to the bottom of things. If Cen Li really revealed everything he and his female father had done, he didn't dare imagine how furious Duke Jolai would be.

If it weren't for the dark spots obscuring his expression, Mihalyu's complexion would have been extremely poor.

"Father Xiong..."

Mihawu wanted to say something more, but a glare from Duke Yolai silenced him.

He could only watch helplessly as Cen Li laid everything out on his mind.

Not a single detail was held back.

Renzo was terrified; his legs seemed rooted to the spot, unable to move.

Duke Jolai's gaze swept coldly over him, his eyes already turning to ice.

Renzo's face turned deathly pale, and he had only one thought in his mind.

It’s over.

It's all over.
