The Second Life Of The Mercenary
Chapter 66 What is love

"Mother." Shouted Babylon with disordered breath he walked up to them.

"Prince it's good that you're coming." Liliana walked over to Babylon, "Tell them if you love me so much and don't want our relationship to end."

Babel looked at Liliana with a sharp look and then he acted as a gentle man, "What did you say Lili? I don't want to lie anymore, I actually love the duchess' daughter."

"What kind of show do you play? why are you saying the same nonsense as your mother?" 

"It's not a charade or Lili's bullshit. I can't continue with you by deceiving myself."

"You used to say you loved me then what is this? you're out of your mind and I know this is all your mother's plan, right?"

Babylon shed tears and knelt before Liliana and took her hand, "I beg you not to hurt my mother in this way. My mother was a victim too because all this time my mother did not know about my feelings, I was wrong not the mother."

"Keep away from me!" Liliana pushed Babylon to make Elena feel sorry for Babylon.

"The prince turned out to be this gentle man, his heart had to be hurt even in the harsh treatment of Liliana. If she loves someone then she must be very considerate of that person," Elena's inner self.

"How dare you push me. Liliana watch out for you later!" inner Babylon. He was not happy if he was humiliated like this.

"Enough Miss Liliana. That love can't be forced, no matter what you ask for or run amok if she doesn't love you anything nothing will change" Elena said.

"You say that because the one you're marrying is your daughter. You must be glad that your daughter became queen consort of Babylon. But don't expect it to happen as long as I'm around" Liliana replied.

"You're coming with me!" Babylon drew Liliana to go with her to the Babylonian office.

"Why did you bring me here? why?" upset Liliana, he was not satisfied arguing with Elena.

"You keep forcing me to remind us of our love. I never forget that I love you then what does love now Lili? you've made my reputation fall with your family's case, just waiting for your family's time to be destroyed. Do you remember what we promised when we first got engaged?"

"Babel promise that right …."

"Let me remind you," Babel said, "The promise is that we will always be together if your family can support me on the throne of the emperor. But how can you be my support when your family is on the brink of collapse? you forgot our promise so the cancellation of this engagement is not my fault but yours. I'm disappointed in you."

"Babel, please give me one more chance. I want to stay by your side, I will get rid of all the obstructions in your path. Please make me anything in your life, the waiter doesn't matter if I stay with you."

Babel smiled triumphantly and hugged Liliana, "I'm sorry Lilie. I have hurt you, if you want to stay by my side then I will give you a place by my side. Don't worry Lili."

"All women are stupid, no one is as smart as my mother. My poor Liliana, I'll keep you by my side and make the most of you if you're no longer useful then I'm sorry I had to throw you away" Inner Babylon. He wants to use Liliana.

"Why hasn't mom come home yet? they'll be here soon" said Charlotte. He couldn't stop pacing around in the room.

"How's this? dad will kill us if you get to know us .. we're planning this kidnapping," Carolina replied.

"You think the only one who worries is you, me too. I was so scared that I felt like I was going crazy."

"I'll scapegoat you if you ask me later, I don't want to die."

"What if we just run away?"

"Don't be silly!" upset Charlotte.

"Welcome back Miss Vanessa, Miss Isabella." The cries of the servants rang out all the way to the twin rooms.

They stood among the servants and avoided eye contact with Vanessa, seeing that their attitude made Vanessa feel happy.

"Ekhen you ... How are you?" cedric asked Isabella to surprise everyone, including Isabella.

"Dad asked me?" Isabella asked Cedric.

Cedric's face flushed and he turned around and said, "Whoever dear you are to Vanessa, don't forget to love yourself. Go back to your room and rest."

Isabella felt something strange with her chest, she felt warm and a little tight.

"Thank you dad" he murmured. It was clearly heard by Cedric.

"Let's let these two ladies rest" Cedric ordered.

"Wait a minute!" prevent Isabella, "I've been holding back since yesterday, why don't you let Vanessa tell me who's behind her kidnapping."

"Do you want to know the mastermind behind all this?" ask Vanessa pout.

"You promised, didn't you?" 

"alright. The rule is …." Vanessa stared at the twins freaking out, "I don't know. He was the coachman who replaced my father's coachman and went to take the train I was riding outside the capital. But the culprit is Baron Martin Kalandra, the father is calm because now the baron family has disappeared from this world."

"Good." Cedric was relieved that the culprit had been convicted. But not with Isabella, he knew there was still something Vanessa hid from him.

After that Cedric asked his two daughters to rest first. But instead of resting Isabella instead went to bother Vanessa, she followed Vanessa to her room.

"You lied, right? try telling the truth to brother?" ask Isabella.

Vanessa laughed out loud because she thought no one was suspicious of her words, "My brother is great. But I don't want to cause any more trouble by telling the mastermind, too much trouble I have and make you worry."

"They are twins, right?" ask Isabella again.

"Why is big brother so good that he can guess the culprit?"

"That night when you were taken you were wounded, if according to your story you were not hurt at all so you do not believe in your story. But the clue that led brother to the culprit was Baron Martin, he was none other than the uncle of the twins. Especially the train you used to get back and go was at the residence when you disappeared, so I know if you made it home good night. Brother thinks you could have been attacked in the residence and already make sure the culprit is twins," explained Isabella.

"Do you think the same as your sister?"

"Cannot be. I won't use my wits if you do the talking" replied Isabella shaking her head.

"But brother, who is Fil? did you not realize when you laughed happily with that man .. Charlize looked at him as if she wanted to devour Fil." Vanessa shuddered when she remembered Charlize's cold gaze.

"Aah!" Isabella said Charlize's words as she and Selina saved her back then, "Do you know what my relationship with Charlize was? he seems to know me very well."

Vanessa smilingly looked at Isabella with a stare like a swallow catching wet Isabella doing something, "Didn't sister really remember Brother Charlize?"
