Chapter 761

“How many subordinates does Elder Maurice have?” Terry asked coldly. Isabelle clenched her teeth
and said in a low voice, “eight high-ranking officers, twenty-three mid-ranking officers, and over two
hundred military personnel.” Duke's eyes turned cold.

The number of people were only one-third of the people on the list Adina had given him.It seemed that
some people were very good at hiding themselves.

These people were always ready to attack him, it was time for him to take them all down.

“In three days, bring these people to the Soux River.I will bring Elder Maurice with me,” he said icily.

“Deal.” Isabelle nodded.

It was not until the man's figure had disappeared into the entrance of the mansion did a deep hatred
surface in her eyes.

She was the eldest daughter of the Black Party's head, there was no way she would willingly serve
under someone else.She got into her car and took out her cell phone.

"Gather my subordinates, we will meet at Soux River in three days.Remember to capture him alive.He
needs to be alive.” She wanted this man to be eating out of the palm of her hand.

She wanted him to know that she, Isabelle, was not someone to be messed with! The dark colors of
dusk soon faded and dawn slowly emerged on the horizon.

Duke flipped through the documents on his desk.He threw the irrelevant documents straight into the
shredder, while he placed the important ones in a drawer.



All that work took up to three hours, finishing exactly by eight in the morning.

The quiet mansion gradually became lively.

Duke, who had not slept the whole night, was still full of energy without a trace of fatigue on his face.He
changed into a suit.

“Blake, come with me,” he said indifferently.

Blake walked out of the corner.

“Yes, sir." The two men walked out of the mansion.

Everyone looked at Blake curiously.

Everyone knew that the boss had a secret bodyguard, and this was the first time they had seen him.

Blake wore a mask, so nobody knew who he really was.

Blake got into the driver's seat of the car and drove it into Yggdra without a hitch.He eventually parked
it in front of the opera house.

The concert had already begun.

Melodious piano music drifted out of the hall.

Duke went straight into the lounge.

When he got there, the woman sitting on the sofa immediately stood up.She was very graceful.

“I’ve heard a lot about you, Mr.North, I am honored to have this first formal meeting with you.I am
Mavice.How do you do?”.



Queen Mavice smiled as she held out her right hand.She was forty-two years old this year, yet she
looked closer to thirty.

Every movement she made had the dignity and elegance of nobility.

Duke shook her hand lightly.

Blake and the queen's entourage wisely left the lounge and waited by the door.

Duke and the queen sat facing each other on the sofa.

“Queen Mavice, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to make time for me,” Duke said
coolly.“ There will be a tough battle the day after tomorrow.

Are you ready for it?" Mavice looked into his eyes-the only thing left uncovered by his mask-and said, “I
trust you,but I don't feel like I'm given the same courtesy.”

Duke understood the meaning hidden behind those words.He lifted his hand to take off the golden
mask.

“No more than five people have seen my true face.Would this be enough as a token of my trust?”
Mavice’s gaze fell on his scarred face.

She was stunned.Her clam and elegant eyes welled up with tears.Her lips parted slightly and, in a
murmur, she cried out his name.

“Queen Mavice, does my appearance frighten you?” Duke picked up the mask from the coffee table
and was about to put it back on...
