The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1478

Tristan did his best to make Priscilla fall asleep.

Then, Tristan looked at her with pity upon looking at the signs of love and exhaustion on her body.

After that, he got up and lit up the candle before planting an affectionate kiss on her forehead and leaving the room.

"Mr. Acker."

Ever since Teagan took over the Acker family business, Tristan had asked the servants to address him as Mr. Acker.

"If I'm not back in two hours, tell the maid to help Madam get changed and take her away through the secret passage. I have already told Lebanon about this, and there will be a helicopter waiting for you at the back lawn. We must ensure Madam's safety and send her back to the Hans family in Z Country no matter what happens. Do you understand?"

Tristan's voice was very cold, and his subordinate immediately nodded.

"Yes, Mr. Acker. We promise to protect Madam with our lives."

"I'll leave it to you then."

Tristan glanced again in the direction of the bedroom, and he then resolutely turned around to leave.

He was afraid that he would be reluctant to leave if he stayed any longer.

He cared for Priscilla and was deeply concerned about her. No matter what happened, he hoped that she could be safe and sound. Although she was in Angolla which was led by Lebanon, she needed to rest now. There were many issues since Lebanon succeeded the throne. Thus, it was unwise to let Priscilla stay any longer.

Despite that, he also knew Priscilla's temper. He was afraid that she would insist on following him once she found out what he was going to do.

Meanwhile, there was no news about Desmond, and he didn't know what had happened. Therefore, now that Tristan was facing some unknown danger, he didn't dare to take risks, nor could he do so.

After arranging his plans, he stepped out of the door and saw that Teagan was already waiting.

"Tristan is everything settled?"

"Yeah."

Tristan nodded in reply.

He seldom smoked, and he had planned to quit smoking ever since he married Priscilla. However, he was currently feeling an inexplicable uneasiness and irritability.

Hence, Tristan stretched out his hand toward Teagan.

"Give me a cigarette."

Teagan quickly lit one up and handed it over to Tristan.

Tristan glanced at it and took it before putting it in his mouth. Then he threw Teagan's cigarette and lighter directly out.

Teagan was confused.

"Hey! That belongs to me!"

"Smoking's bad for health, so you should quit."

Tristan said as he puffed the cigarette.

The corner of Teagan's mouth twitched in annoyance when he heard this.

Tristan said smoking wasn't good, but he was doing the same thing!

However, Teagan did not dare to say this.

After finishing a cigarette, Tristan directly flicked his fingers and said coldly, "Let's go!"

Soon, he started his car, and it was followed by more than a dozen trucks, which were full of people. Some of them were from the Acker family, and some were sent by Lebanon.

The group of people came to the Dark Forest.

The police had put up some tape with warnings all around, but there was no sound. It was so quiet that the crowd felt uneasy and couldn't help breaking out in cold sweat.

"Mr. Acker, the king has ordered you to act according to circumstances. Don't go in rashly."

The guard leader quickly saluted and repeated Lebanon's command.

"I see. From now on, your group will leave. I'll take over here."

The guard didn't know what to do after hearing what Tristan had said.

"Mr. Acker, I'm afraid this won't work. The king has given us orders."

"You guys can't handle the internal matters here, but I'm a professional, so I can handle it to reduce casualties. Go back. I'll contact the king directly if there's anything."

Tristan was stubborn as he said these words.

Everyone knew about his relationship with Lebanon, and the latter was also respectful towards him. Thus, the guard captain naturally dared not to act against Tristan's orders.

Once Tristan saw that Lebanon's subordinates had left, he replaced them with his men and gave them all a gas mask.

"I don't know what's going on inside, so you guys should be on guard. Remember, wear the gas mask in case anything happens. As for the rest, follow me in and be vigilant."

Tristan looked at the number of people and began to allocate the work.

Meanwhile, Teagan looked at the ground. The footprints here were a little messy, but he still found something.

"Hey! Tristan looked at this."

Tristan quickly squatted down. He saw a series of footprints walking into the Dark Forest, but it was unsystematic. It seemed that they were chased and run away.

"Guard outside and don't go in."

Tristan ordered Teagan directly.

"No, I want to follow you."

Teagan suddenly frowned after hearing Tristan's orders.

"Teagan, if you can't do it, then go back."

Tristan was not being strict, but Teagan knew that he was angry. At this moment, Teagan finally compromised.

"Then you have to promise me that you'll have to inform me if there's any danger."

"All right."
