Athena pushed open the wooden door of the inn room, and before she had time to see the furnishings in the room, she was embraced by a force.

Her heart jumped suddenly, and she subconsciously wanted to struggle, but a familiar cold fragrance lingered on the tip of her nose.

Looking up, she crashed into Xander’s deep, cold eyes.

Xander put his index finger to his lips, signaling her not to speak.

Before Athena could react, Xander had already put his arm around her waist and walked forward.

The two stopped in front of a wall. The world spun, and their backs slammed against a cold stone wall.

The next second, the stone wall slowly slid open, revealing a dark secret passage just wide enough for one person to pass through.

Xander led her into the secret passage, and the stone door behind them slowly closed.

Outside the door, Ray stood at the end of the corridor, glancing at Athena’s door from time to time.

He had been waiting in place for two quarters of an hour, and there had been no movement from Athena’s room since she entered.

Growing increasingly uneasy, he strode to the room and knocked on the door. “Atheny? Atheny…”

There was no response from inside the room. Ray put his ear to the door and listened, but it was silent inside.

His expression changed, and he hurriedly pushed open the door, only to find it empty, with no sign of Athena.

Ray’s face darkened as his eyes scanned the corner, where the color of the bricks was slightly different from the surrounding ones. His eyes suddenly widened.

He had been careless and allowed Athena to be taken away right under his nose.

It was at this moment that he realized the waiter looked familiar.

He was clearly Xander’s man.

Ray thought, ‘So he has planned everything in advance, quietly taking Athena away.’

“Xander!” Ray’s eyes were bloodshot as he regained his breath. He was unwilling to accept this.

‘Why? Why is he better than me in every way?‘ he thought.

Just then, neat and unified footsteps suddenly came from outside the inn, followed by the crisp sound of weapons clashing.

Chapter 731

F:.

Ray suddenly turned and rushed to the window, lifting a corner of the curtain, his heart ouderly connecting

He saw that the inn was already surrounded by a mass of troops

And Xander was riding on horseback, looking at him with an indifferent expression.

“Your Lordship, the inn has been completely surrounded by Prince Xander’s troops, and Lennox han alles been captured by him. Let’s leave quickly… the confidant said anxiously.

Ray lowered his head unwillingly. In the end, he had lost.

It turned out that his smooth journey was not due to his meticulous planning, but because Kander had deliberately let him off.

In other words, his every move was under Xander’s surveillance.

‘But how could he dare to use Athena as a pawn? Ray thought

Ray roared at Xander, saying. “You are a despicable villain. You even use the one you love. You are not worthy of being a man.”

Xander used the fact that he was reluctant to attack Athena, so he did not come to rescue her.

But Athena trusted him so much. Ray couldn’t bear to hurt Athena.

The carriage curtain was lifted, and Athena walked out from inside. “I asked him to do this. Ray, don’t be obsessed anymore.”

Athena looked at the crazy Ray, and her heart ached.

She still remembered when she was young, Ray always loved to chase after her. At that time, the light in his eyes was brighter than the stars, but now only paranoia remained.

He had come to this point, which was what she least wanted to see.

Ray seemed not to hear her, shaking his head sharply. “Impossible, you are being coerced by him, right? Atheny, I know you don’t want to be with him.”

He looked at Athena with red eyes, his heart aching.
