Chapter 1668: Elder Sister
With a loud bang, the lively banquet in the hall below came to an abrupt halt. The nobles who were
chatting instinctively turned towards the sound.
They saw a figure falling from the sky and crashing heavily onto the floor. Dark red blood flowed out of
their body, staining the crystal clear floor.
The woman's eyes were wide open, frozen in extreme anger.
After a moment of silence, screams erupted from the scene. The closest noble lady fainted on the spot
from fright.
Well-trained guards held their guns and protected the nobles behind them, aiming at where the woman
had fallen from.
Stanley glanced at Beatrice lying dead on the ground with her eyes still open before turning around and
heading upstairs. "Mr. Soo, there is a murderer upstairs," he said to his colleague as he passed by him.
Suddenly turning back to face him, Stanley smiled slightly at the lady who had kindly reminded him:
"Please be careful with your words; there is no murderer upstairs - only a princess."
The lady's face immediately became stunned by his response.
Lillian stood in front of Beatrice's bloody body without any expression on her face as she raised her
head and finished drinking her wine before handing it over to one of her servants while giving orders:

As Lillian walked away calmly, everyone finally realized that it was actually Governor's own sister who
had died so tragically right in front of them all.
"Miss Governor ... this..."
Lillian stood in front of Beatrice, crouching down to pick a red rose and placing it gently beside her
cheek. She whispered, "The glory of the empire will remember your contribution. May God bless you to
heaven... sister."
This was the first time Lillian had called Beatrice sister.
And also the last.
Robert watched Lillian's snow-white and cold face, his fingers tightening.
When Beatrice fell, Robert instinctively wanted to protect Lillian and aggravated his injuries. His face
looked particularly ugly at this moment.
But that didn't matter.
He just watched Lillian's expression at this moment, feeling inexplicably blocked in his heart.
But maybe this fragility was just his illusion.
Because in the next second, Lillian had stood up and her icy gaze fell on the window where Beatrice
fell from. She said coldly, "Assassinating nobles is a capital crime. Rebels shall be killed without
mercy!"
As soon as Lillian finished speaking, guards with guns rushed upstairs immediately. But before they
could reach upstairs, a slender figure appeared on the stairs already.
Those guards saw that beautiful but cold face holding a gun and their hands trembled unconsciously
before slowly landing on their sides without pointing any guns towards her owner's face eventually.
Across the silent crowd in the hall, Selena gazed quietly at Lillian's face and asked softly, "Miss Lilian,
your sister died tragically right before your eyes. Are you sad?"
Lillian gave a small smile. "Are you upset? Not really, but even though I wasn't close to Miss White, she
is still of royal blood. Miss Turner, do you plan on confessing and facing the consequences?"
Selena smiled slowly. It was expected.
When Lillian killed her, there was no emotional reaction from her, let alone Beatrice.
Selena chuckled lightly. "Miss Lillian worries too much. I did not kill Beatrice, so why would I confess?"
Lillian looked into Selena's eyes and smiled. "Oh?"
Everyone saw that Beatrice fell out of the window in Selena's room with their own eyes - if it wasn't her
who did it then who could it be?
