The Princess and The Lord

Chapter 1256 Attack from The Sky

chapter 1256 attack from the sky

never crossed angela's mind that they would meet again, and so soon. previously, angela had heard that another group of hunters had been hired for escorting this group, but she never thought the group was the woman who humiliated her and what was worse was that angela believed lory was also the person responsible for making their group blacklisted by the black crow guild.

until now, angela still feels that it's unfair, why are they the ones who must be blacklisted when it is their group that is injured.

angela still believed that lory used an underhand method to put them on the blacklist, speaking of which, angela didn't see that handsome guy anywhere. she wondered if they were fighting or something, nevertheless angela's mood got better.

lory didn't know what angela was thinking, not like she cared anyway. unlike them, lory didn't feel deep hostility toward angela and the others. the reason lory avoided them was because she knew how petty they were and lory was too lazy to entertain them, just like she expected, this group immediately looked for trouble the moment they saw her.

"why are you here!" nora didn't hide his resentment toward lory.

after what happened in the black crow guild, his hatred towards lory and zhao li xin increased day by day especially after they were blacklisted by the black crow guild, just like angela he also noticed zhao lixin's absence, could it be something happened? hence just like angela, she also hoped that the worst thing would happen to that despicable couple, hopefully, a breakup or such.

"you know each other?" the man's ice-blue eyes bore into lory's face.

even so, lory was unfazed then she gave a brief answer, "we met once,".

"he hurt our friend!" nora exclaimed.

lory's lips curved upwards while tilting her head, she didn't argue since it wasn't completely wrong.

"nora.." liam gently reminds her.

"but, liam-" nora whines.

"stop it, nora! we don't want to get any more trouble from the black crow guild because of this" angela flick a nervous glance at lory.

there is no need to explain further from angela and liam's words and attitudes, everyone can conclude that lory is the cause of the damage to their group's reputation, she also implies that there is cheating between the black crow guild and lory.

lory was amazed by liam and angela's tacit understanding to change the narrative, with just a simple sentence they managed to turn the situation around by making lory as the bad guy.

nice work but lory didn't care, from the start, this assignment was just a way for her to infiltrate luxemborough. furthermore, lory thought it might not be a bad idea for her to get fired therefore she wouldn't have to waste another three days to take care of these annoying celebrities.

on the other hand, angela's words made nora's anger erupt like a volcano soon her eyes turned into two angry points, "did i say something wrong? it was her and her husband who hurt you until you almost died, did you forget? even now we still don't know how that attack affected your body, who knows if there are any abnormalities in your body that we don't know about yet, how could you let this go easily!" nora's voice quivered from frustration.

liam clenched his jaw, from his expression, everyone could see he looked apprehensive about his own condition, everyone thought there was truly something abnormal about liam's body but he didn't dare talk about it openly for everyone knew that as a professional hunter, health was the most important thing without it they will be forced to retire, immediately everyone felt sorry for liam's pitiful state as result, everyone turned at lory with accusing eyes.

lory's eyebrows twitched, she wondered if she needed to hit liam this time.

the ice blue-eyed man pinched his glabella tiredly, a second later he shouted "enough!"

the room became silent, no one dared to speak, soon the atmosphere in the room became tense, for a moment everyone held their breath except garrof, and lloyd including liam who was unfazed. regardless of how incompetent liam was, he was still a hunter whose job it was to hunt down dangerous beasts, therefore, they were not easily intimidated.

meanwhile, lory's hand reached for the unopened strawberry pudding on one of the table's seats not far from her.

"we don't care about the grudges between your group, i'll only have one question, can you all work together?" the man looks annoyed he blames the people who hired these two groups without further investigation first.

milly rushed to her seat, while angela lowered her head in silence, nora crossed her arms on her chest, her expression showing she was still unwilling to make peace. among them, only xuyu had not said anything from the beginning however a deep disappointment flashed across her face.

liam who was the group leader spoke for his group "you don't need to worry about that" but nora suddenly shouted, "i won't cooperate with them!" she turned around before dropping her bottom onto her seat leaving liam standing there awkwardly.

the man shook his head, he didn't want to waste his time with nora, the man then turned his head at garrof and lloyd.

lloyd waved his hand. "no problem, this isn't the first time we've worked with brats" he mockingly said.

garrof looked at nora and the others sequentially later on he let out a derisive snort "as long as they keep their mouths shut, we won't have any problems"

the man then turned his gaze towards lory, suddenly he was surprised when he caught lory casually eating pudding which was already her second cup.

lory's movement halted as she realized that the man was looking at him with his ice-cold blue eyes, lory looked at him and then shrugged nonchalantly implying she didn't care, afterward lory continued eating without care.

everyone turned speechless, wasn't she the one who caused this commotion but why was she the most relaxed among all of them as if this fight had nothing to do with her?

at the same time, lory had finished her second cup of pudding but still felt it was not enough hence she searched for the stewardess to ask if there was any other pudding left.

the handsome blue-eyed man massaged his head, his guts told him that this flight would be longer than already was, beside him the handsome black man patted his shoulder.

lory herself had already forgotten about the fight when the beautiful stewardess told her that they were also serving orange and blueberry pudding, lory's eyes suddenly lit up like fireworks. lory's face lit up with joy when she got the blueberry pudding. lory was just about to start eating the third cup when suddenly the plane shook violently causing everyone who had not yet returned from their seats to tumbling down. a second later the red light sign was heard then followed by the pilot's anxious voice.

"attention all passengers, please return to your seats and fasten your seat belts!"

the seat belt sign flashed above their seats as everyone frantically returned to their seats, and the flight attendants quickly helped the passengers to wear their seat belts while trying to calm them down but the truth is the flight attendants were just as scared as them. all of a sudden they heard a high-pitched roaring sound.

"wh...what is that?" one of the passengers was trembling in fright.
