Chapter 416: Ill-Fated Love Story
At Country V
Xander did not waste any time in making preparations for the trial. He sat down with Lana and tried to understand the rules of the Mirage and the proceedings. He used his last strand of patience to understand as much as he could.
He and Lana worked together with pros and cons of every evidence they would need to submit. They studied all the scenarios that could come up and happen to be to their disadvantage as well, including how Yun’s group would handle all their accusations and their possible counterparts for the claim to the throne.
Xander was a perfectionist and wanted everything to be perfect, every evidence, every witness that they could produce and use for their advantage was checked and contacted. He was glad he had Lana by his side who was also a perfectionist and the best when it came to issues related to Law. She indeed managed every document in an order that things were more easy to understand when she made a move.
"No wonder, if you continue like this, you will become an old maid," Xander jested as the two of them took a break with Chad bringing some snacks for them.
"I would prefer being single than being with a complicated man like you. I really pity Yera, you know." Lana mumbled.
"Ouch! Why is your tongue always sharp!" Xander scolded and Lana only answered him with shrugged shoulders.
"Alright! As I told you guys, my request for a visit to the Tai Clan territory has been suddenly granted. I want to bring you two there with me so you can have some private talks with the King about the case. Though he is a very noble person who doesn’t want to indulge in the war between Quan and Yue clans, but I also have a trump card in my hands to make him agree to help us. For now, you both get ready. Milo will give you both your outfits for disguise shortly as my personal bodyguards." Chad interrupted.
Xander immediately moved out to change. Lana watched in disbelief and commented, "Look how excited he is?" Xander always kept Lana on her toes.
She wondered which drug he was on because neither did he himself sleep properly nor did he even let her sleep,and always kept asking a lot of questions to her every now and then.
"I should ask for triple pay and hazard pay for this. I can even ask for mental harassment benefit from this doctor." Lana jokingly said with a crumpled face.
