The Second Life Of The Mercenary
Chapter 69 Elena moves fast.

Elena came home excited that she would soon be the prince's father-in-law, and her daughter's degree would be far above Isabella's.

"My dear charlotte. I'm home" Elena said as she entered the twin room.

"Oh just got home. What about the tea party? exclamation must be," cynical Carolina, she's upset that her mother's late.

"Why are you cynical with your mother?" ask Elena who's been following her mad.

Charlotte told me everything that happened from the beginning that they acted until the end, hearing that Elena was shocked because they acted without telling her anything.

But now that wasn't the case because Vanessa didn't open her mouth, so their position at Abraham's residence was still safe.

"Forgot that because I have some good news for you. The Prince of Babel loves you and he wants to be engaged to you" Elena told Charlotte.

"I? no no no no. The Prince of Babylon is engaged to my best friend Liliana, I don't want to hurt Liliana's mother" Charlotte replied.

"Why do you care about that brash woman? he had insulted mother only because he was upset that the Prince of Babylon had annulled their engagement. You want to support the man who hurt your mother? do you have a heart?"

"Miss Liliana is a very gentle woman, I must have misunderstood her. I don't want to even if mom forces me."

"alright. It's up to you, I won't care anymore. He threatened my mother and daughter to side with him, finally I realized after your father died you didn't care about me. I'm like this for your future."

"I don't mean mom. I just don't want to be hated by the ladies of the upper class for offending Liliana."

"Liliana's family is just waiting for time to break down, the engagement will be canceled soon so you don't have to care about her. In the future too if you're hard not necessarily you'll be helped by him, you forget how mom's best friend looked after mom was left by your dad?"

"alright. I'll agree with what mom said." Charlotte finally agreed to do whatever the mother said.

"Curtain! why should he too, "inner Carolina is no less upset because only Charlotte is lucky.

"Why did you give me men's clothes? it suits me perfectly" Aisnley said, spinning in front of the mirror.

"You look weird thanks to that outfit, so ugly," Selina sneered. He dislikes seeing Aisnley being too proud of her appearance, the problem being that after the incident Isabella kept Selina's identity hidden from people who didn't know about her. Because of this, she could not wear the dress she had dreamed of.

Tok tok tok tok

Azar knocks on Isabella's room door, Aisnley moves away from the mirror and Selina instantly returns to being a lizard.

"Lake in!" isabella's orders. The door opened and Azar came up from behind the door.

Azar stepped inside Isabella's room. But Azar avoids eye contact with him, Isabella notices there is something different from Azar for example the man's attitude is different from usual. There was no look of hatred, caution, or hostility from him.

"I came to say thank you" Azar glanced at Isabella silently.

Isabella did not answer because her attention was fixed on the sword hanging on Azar's waist, Isabella knew the sword because it was her gift to Ayana. Isabella stared at Azar's face and the sword in turn.

After a while Isabella regained consciousness and was startled, "Don't tell me you're Ayana's boyfriend?"

This time Azar did not answer. But her blushing face answered the question, Isabella got up from her seat and walked up to Azar.

"of course. You think I'm a ghost until I can't have a lover."

"That's not what I meant. Because you are not. .. famous as a man adored by many noble ladies, so how could you possibly have a lover when so many women adore you."

"Huh? what does all that have to do with it? my age is enough to get married and I love Ayana. They have nothing to do with this" Azar lamented.

"What miss might think how could a poor man who couldn't buy a sword for himself have a lover as beautiful as Ayana? face if miss thinks so, I have been a lot rude to him even though I myself am not a respectable rich man. After this miss will definitely insult me," inner Azar.

"Come with Ayana, she's a sweet girl. You fit in and don't forget to invite me when you get married" Isabella said. The unexpected remarks from a notoriously evil woman like Isabella made Azar feel moved.

"If you need anything don't hesitate tell me. You can borrow anything from me, no need to feel your pride hurt because everything I give you is recorded as your debt" he continued.

"Thank you very much, miss. Excuse me, good rest." Azar bowed respectfully and left Isabella's room with joy.

The next day Cedric was so happy that his two daughters' wounds healed without a trace, he asked which potion expert gave the potion. But they agreed to keep it a secret, as Luca's identity could create a new uproar.

After breakfast Vanessa leaves the residence because she will be the organizer of a tea party that Albert will hold in the palace garden on his behalf, Isabella also wants to get out.  But after seeing Elena walking with Cedric upstairs made Isabella curious, he thought Elena wanted to carry out a new plan because of course the twins are currently being hit with endless worry after yesterday's incident.

Isabella follows them until they enter Cedric's study, at Isabella's doorstep ready to eavesdrop on their conversation.

"So what do you want to talk to?" ask Cedirc.

"I want the last name of the twins changed from Kalandra to Abraham. They are now your responsibility, you have the right to give them what should be theirs. The Vanessa kidnapping incident that their own uncle took hurt their hearts, they asked why they should have the same last name as the criminal" Elena replied. He started another drama.

"There has to be an agreement between me and my two daughters. If they don't agree then .. I can't do anything."

"Where possible, you are the law in this residence. I've never asked for anything so please just fill my little wish."

"I'll think about it again. So you can get out now."

"The Queen wants to match Charlotte to the Prince of Babylon, that's why I want their last name changed."

"The Prince of Babylon already has Miss Liliana, how come?"

"It's a love problem. The Prince of Babylon is in love with Charlotte so he'll call off his engagement to Liliana."

Isabella felt that it was not the main problem of the cancellation of their engagement, because the bad events behind the cancellation of Charlize and Regina's engagement became the key to the destruction of the Lugia family. Regina's father had been a criminal and imprisoned by the emperor, the position of Babylon would not be safe if the Lugia family were destroyed because the family supported his position, so before the family was completely destroyed the empress immediately looked for another supporter.

"He's moving fast as well apparently," Isabella's inner.
