Tristan knew Priscilla well. Although he had not seen her many times, he had studied this woman and even paid attention to her. At this time, he was just an assistant in the eyes of outsiders, but he did not expect that Priscila would come and greet him.
Things were getting more interesting now!
"Your Highness, are you greeting the wrong person? Sir Tristan is sitting over there."
Tristan nudged the substitute not far away with his chin as he said this, and his lips rose slightly into a smile. He looked like a gentleman, but there was a trace of evil in his gaze, so Priscilla was stunned. Then she smiled and said, "Well, I'm trying to make a toast with you. What's wrong? Are you not brave enough to do so?"
As Priscilla said these words, she could feel Laborn's sharp gaze boring into her as he was ready to rip her into pieces. Well, what could he do?
The fact that he was her father didn't matter at all.
Did she have to agree to whoever he wanted her to marry?
What a joke!
She had managed to survive for this long not because of Laborn.
Since he wanted her to have a relationship with the heir of the Acker family, he wouldn't do as he wished.
Instead, she would flirt around with Tristan's assistant, an orphan with a pitiful background. Well, what could Laborn do to her?
On the other hand, Tristan had to admit that no one could control Priscilla as she was a rebel. However, the corners of his lips raised slightly into a smile when he saw how rebellious she was being.
"Well, I apologise, but I really don't have the guts to do so."
Tristan's smile was quite alluring as he said these words, so Priscilla was stunned for a moment.
"Hah! I guess you're a coward then!"
"I'm afraid you're mistaken, Princess. Since you have graciously offered me some wine, I will definitely drink it."
After saying that, Tristan took the wine cup from Priscilla and sniffed it.
There was a potent aphrodisiac in here!
It seemed that Laborn was really anxious.
At this thought, a sinister smile appeared on
Tristan's lips. He suddenly took a step forward and wrapped his arms around Priscilla's slender waist boldly. As soon as he did it, a warm breath immediately hit his face.
"Princess, this wine is drugged. Are you sure you want me to drink it?"
Tristan whispered in Priscilla's ears.
Hah! Her guess was right!
At this thought, a hint of anger flashed through the Priscilla's eyes.
Laborn didn't care about her life and death to achieve his interests. She had initially made a guess, but when she heard what Tristan had said, she was furious.
"Well, I'm sure. What's wrong? Do you not have the guts to drink it?"
Priscilla looked so tempting and seductive as she questioned him.
Then, Tristan looked at Laborn, who was standing behind Priscilla, and smiled evilly.
"Well, since you've requested me to do so, Princess, I'll certainly listen to your orders."
After saying that, Tristan picked up Priscilla and walked to the nearby lounge. Well, everyone knew what they were about to do after that.
Did Priscilla regret this?
She didn't know the answer to this question.
At this thought, she glanced through the people in the hall. However, everyone was looking at her with indifferent gazes, so she felt cold immediately.
Alas! She had only loved one man deeply up till now, but the man was not by her side.
Suddenly, Priscilla thought about her own identity and the situation she was in. Even if Nathaniel accepted her, she could not stay with Nathaniel for a long time, could she? Furthermore, he had never chosen her since the beginning.
If that was the case, who she chose didn't matter, right? After all, this palace was too cold, and she was too lonely.
At this thought, there was a trace of loneliness in Priscilla's eyes. Then, she gulped down the wine in Tristan's hand. Before Tristan could stop her, her cherry lips directly covered Tristan's mouth, and the sweet red wine slipped down his throat.
When Tristan saw this, his eyes darkened slightly.
Meanwhile, Laborn was so angry that his anger was about to explode.
"Prissy Fang, get down here!"
He rarely treated Priscilla like this, but now, Priscilla acted as if it didn't hear him. Then, she continued to kiss and seduce Tristan with all her might.
When Laborn saw this, he immediately turned to the man that was pretending to be Tristan and said, "Mr. Acker, are you going to watch as your assistant oversteps the boundaries?"
"Well, he is not only my assistant. As long as he is happy, I won't stop him from doing what he wants."
A mysterious gaze flashed through the eyes of the man who was wearing the mask, but it disappeared quickly. Then, he continued to put on an emotionless look again.
Meanwhile, Laborn was enraged. When he was about to ask someone to separate Priscilla and Tristan, they had entered the room and locked the door behind them.
Right now, both of them felt a little bit warm because of the aphrodiasac.
Well, well. Tristan looked like a well-groomed heir just now. But now, he had pushed Priscilla against the wall, and both their lips were entangled in a passionate kiss.
On the other hand, Mango was speechless.
There were so many rooms here! Hah! Why did both of them have to choose this one? Furthermore, they were now devouring each other non-stop, so she had no choice but to cough out loud.
"Um... hi, can both of you stop for a second?"
Mango smiled awkwardly as she said this.
When Priscilla and Tristan heard her voice, they immediately paused. Then, Priscilla pushed Tristan away as if she had seen a ghost.
"Hey! Why are you here?"
"Haha! Sorry to disturb both of you, but why did you have to choose this room out of all the available room here?"
Mango chuckled as she said these words. Meanwhile, Priscilla had a solemn expression on her face.
On the other hand, Tristan was stunned for a moment when he saw this. When he saw that it was Mango, he gave a sweet smile instead.
"What? I thought both of you went out, but I never expected that you would be hiding here! Aren't you worried that Laborn's man will see you here?"
"We just need to rest here for a while. When the banquet reaches its peak, we will get a chance to catch Bernard."
Mango was somewhat reassured when she saw that Tristan was here.
On the other hand, when Priscilla saw that Tristan and Mango seemed to know each other, she couldn't help but frown.
"Is he one of your subordinates?"
"Well, to be precise, he is one of Nathaniel's men."
Mango didn't know what she said was correct. However, Nathaniel was also from the Southeast District, and he had a higher rank than Tristan. Hence, Tristan would automatically be one of Nathaniel's men.
