Chapter 549  Mr Martinez Changed His Plans

Sniper tried to walk towards Tiffany but Mr Martinez grabbed his hand and shook his head negatively.

"As I was saying...," Tiffany paused. She paid no attention to her friends whose questioning stares were on her.

Has she gone nuts?

Where the hell did she buy such guts from?

Does she have a death wish?

She knew without any doubt that these were the questions running through her astounded friends' minds.

"Because of this incident you could no longer tolerate the King despite his position... tell me how could someone like you let him live if truly the King was living outside the palace, away from the protection of the royal guards...,"

"What nonsense are you talking about...,"

"There is no need to try and shut me up because Grandpa knows that I am stating the truth," Tiffany cut in, her shoulders held high.

"If the rumours flying around weren't baseless why would Grandpa miss such a golden opportunity to get rid of his greatest eyesore?" Tiffany quizzed, a smug smirk lingering on the corner of her lips.

"You are free to correct me if you think I spewed nonsense," Tiffany added while strolling back to the centre table to join the others.

"If only you had shown this bit of cleverness in the past then I wouldn't have been so disappointed in you...,"

"You have always thought of me as a troublemaker. A stupid girl who is better off being groomed as a wife of convenience for your plans. I was never allowed to shine so it isn't my fault if you never knew I had this side to me," She replied firmly.

Tiffany pretended as if she didn't see Mr Martinez's expression turned murderous following her statement.

"Grandpa, if you are done with us can we go to my room... actually we still have a few things to discuss," Tiffany spoke in a soft tone as if she wasn't the same lady who left the old man speechless with her confrontation.

She bites her lower lips as she prepares herself for the punishment her Grandpa will give her for daring to stand up to him in front of her others.

Tiffany had expected to hear her Grandpa order Sniper to have her locked up for at least a month and finally, his judgement came...

"You girls can go upstairs now," Mr Martinez replied to the girl's astonishment.

"Are you sure?" Tiffany had to ask again to make sure that she didn't mishear anything.

"Go on now," Mr Martinez waved at the four girls.

Reluctantly, the ladies moved towards the stairs. As they walked, they didn't forget to watch their backs in case the old man planned to make them believe he had spared them when in reality he had other arrangements.

They were only able to breathe normally after they entered Tiffany's room and locked the door from the inside.

"Let's talk in my study," Mr Martinez said to the guy beside him after he had confirmed that the ladies were inside Tiffany's room.

Sniper and Mr Martinez moved towards the stairs and then branched to their right-hand side where his study was located.

After walking for about three minutes, they halted in front of a room with a glass door and walls.

When they entered the room Sniper didn't forget to shut the doors properly.

"Master, you and I know that our men were not the ones who spread the rumours about the King so why didn't you correct her when she accused you?" Sniper asked the question that has been eating him up at last.

"Because there were some points embedded in her rants," Mr Martinez snickered as if Sniper had just told him a joke.

"Tiffany thought the rumours were baseless because she believed I was the source of the rumour but what if I wasn't the one who spread the rumour?... Would you still think it was groundless?" Mr Martinez asked, something only a cunning man like him would have done.

"For over a month, our men have been unable to confirm the identity of the man who prides himself as King in the human world... what if it turns out that he was just a decoy and not the real King?" Sniper who seems to understand the point Mr Martinez tried to make commented.

"That was the exact thought that crossed my mind when that girl was ranting earlier," Mr Martinez whispered.

He stood up and paced about the room as he tried to organise his thoughts.

"If we were not the ones who spread the rumours about His Majesty still being in the Kingdom then who did and how true are these words?" Mr Martinez said his thoughts out loud.

"Do you think this is the handiwork of those who have been unintentionally helping us sail through with our plans?" Sniper made a wild guess.

Just like the King and his people, they have also been trying to discover the identity of those who assisted them with the killings in the Kingdom that they started.

At least the King knew that the humans were responsible for this but they didn't have any information about the mysterious beings.

"I don't care who is responsible for the spread of the rumours... what I want is for you to verify how they started and how true these rumours are," Mr Martinez declared.

As they discussed, what they didn't know was that Tiffany had snuck out of her room and was standing just at the foot of the stairs listening to their conversation.

"Also...," Mr Martinez delayed. He spun and peered in Sniper's direction.

"I want your men to run a thorough background check on all the new students that Twilight University has recently admitted. Have old students who seem suspicious verified... If it's true that His Majesty is really in the Kingdom and away from the palace then I guess luck must be on my side," Mr Martinez grinned, his hands spread in the air as he sniffed a mouthful of the air of victory surrounding him.
