All Chapters of Substitute Queen's Revenge: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

George's dark eyes radiated chills as he looked coldly at the woman in front of him.Julie was kneeling on the bed in very thin pajamas.Whether it was due to the cold spring evening or the king's anger, Julie shivered uncontrollably with her head hung low."I-I'm Julie. We met in Lady Helena's palace…" She barely managed to finish her sentence. Her throat felt dry and constricted.Despite his perfectly calm tone, George's handsome face had a coldness that terrified her from the bottom of her heart."Where is the queen?" he asked again.The air around them felt thinner and thinner. Julie could hardly catch her breath. "Your Majesty, the queen arranged for me to serve you in bed," she said.At the commotion, Steven came in without being summoned. He happened to overhear what Julie said and was flabbergasted. Wasn't the queen supposed to be waiting for the king in bed?What was she doing? Was she playing hard to get?In reality, Julie was also surprised. She never thought she'd

How could it be him?Jane's eyes narrowed. Her hands felt warm. He looked identical to the man she had fought.No. To be specific, they were one and the same.They had the same handsome face, the same dark eyes, and the same imposing manner…The first time they fought, she had assumed that he was one of the palace's royal guards. In reality, it had been the king himself, George.However, she was surprised that the king, who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, actually had such strong martial arts capabilities.Even though Jane recognized George, he had no idea that she was the same assassin he had fought against before."Are you just going to keep staring at me?" George asked in an unfriendly tone.Jane immediately collected her thoughts and looked down. "Please excuse me for being impolite."Although she seemed calm on the surface, she was still in shock on the inside.This was the first time George looked at her face at such a close distance in good lighting.The la

Jane slowly looked up. There was a calm look of indifference in her eyes."Your Majesty, I previously spoke out of turn and made you angry. I'm still repenting over my mistakes. I don't deserve to serve you in bed," she replied.George's cold gaze concealed a certain degree of threat. "You seem to have a lot of self-awareness. Prepare the carriage. We're heading to Cloud Palace."-After the king left, Lily went limp and leaned against the table."Your Majesty, that nearly gave me a heart attack-"Lily looked around and saw that nobody else was around."Your Majesty, since the king didn't sleep with Lady Julie, your plan to ruin Lady Helena's monopoly over his favor has failed."Not only that, but you also offended the king and increased the tension between yourself and Lady Helena as well as Lady Julie. Doesn't that put us in an even more precarious situation?" Lily asked worriedly.Jane didn't think they failed."Lady Julie and Lady Helena are close. Logically speaking, if

Helena thought she had misheard. Why would George go to Julie's residence?Timothy continued, "It's exactly what happened. Lionel sent word that you don't have to wait for the king. His Majesty will be having dinner at Lady Julie's residence."Helena felt uncomfortable. She frowned a little.However, she convinced herself that even if they had dinner together, George wouldn't sleep with Julie. He definitely wouldn't…Helena couldn't let something minor like this affect her. Other people would make fun of her.-All the other concubines were shocked when they heard that the king was spending the night with Julie.Wilhelmina was especially angry. She smashed a bowl on the spot."How long has Lady Julie been in the palace? Why does she get to serve the king in bed before I do?" she fumed."Your Highness, the king only went to Lady Julie's residence because he heard about her father's successes in war. Perhaps he was just doing it to showcase his generosity," Mia said carefully.

George grabbed one of Jane's shoulders and one of her hands. He was a man after all, and he was very strong. It was hard to break free from him."Guards!" he called out.The royal guards stationed outside rushed in."Capture the assassin!" he commanded.Seeing that they were about to apprehend her, Jane raised a knee to kick George in the crotch.George dodged to the side, and his grip on her shoulder loosened. In a high-level fight, being careless was unacceptable.Just as he loosened his grip, Jane threw in a surprise attack by pulling off the belt around his waist…Swoosh.The royal guards reflexively turned away so as not to catch a glimpse as George's pants fell down.George let go of her with one hand to grab his pants, managing to prevent them from slipping off. However, the act to protect his dignity meant he had only one hand left on Jane.Being outnumbered always resulted in a disadvantage. It was the same as one hand against two.Like a slippery eel, Jane immediat
