The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 1312

“Yeah.” Anthony nodded, his voice calm. “The first condition is impossible. The second one, even more so. Since we couldn’t come to an agreement, there’s no point wasting time here.”

“Oh.” Charlotte barely reacted. She rolled her neck, sounding almost bored. “If we can settle this with action, why bother arguing?” She honestly didn’t have the patience to listen to Allanson go on and on.

“This is the Isle of Veil. So what if people from the three big groups managed to sneak in? It hardly matters.” Franco’s words instantly made the room feel heavier. The leaders of all the border factions started whispering among themselves.

“Exactly,” someone else agreed. “And now even the foreign groups have been called back. If Franco tries anything now, he’s basically asking for trouble.”

“But...” In the midst of all the talk, someone seemed to notice something odd. He lowered his voice. “There’s no way Franco’s people could get into the Isle of Veil without anyone noticing. Why didn’t Allanson do anything?”

That just didn’t add up.

A man sitting nearby glanced at Allanson, his face serious. “Unless Allanson didn’t want to stop them.”

He didn’t want to stop them? Just stood by and let those people walk right in? What was Allanson really up to?

The two men exchanged a look, and suddenly it seemed to click for both of them. Their eyes widened in shock.

Aloys’s worst fear was about to come true.

Aloys and Marcia were both caught off guard.

“How did Solenia’s people and Charlotte’s group get into the Isle of Veil so easily without anyone hearing about it?” Marcia’s face went pale when she heard there were people from Solenia, the N Organization, and the X Organization outside.

“We didn’t know, but Grandpa’s men definitely did...” Her words trailed off as her face lost all color.

That’s right. Grandpa had to have known.

So... did he let them in on purpose?

At the same time, in Cabinda...

“Newell, your breakfast.” The maid opened the bedroom door, carrying a tray.

But the room was empty. On the table, a note waited.

The message was short.

Newell had gone back to the Isle of Veil.

Dr. David found the note and just sighed. He wasn’t surprised at all. “I knew he wouldn’t be able to stay put.”

There was no way Newell would just sit back and let Lottie risk everything for him. The Isle of Veil was practically his home turf. Now that he was back, maybe he’d be able to give Charlotte the help she needed.
