Chapter 722

"Chief, I... My guard told me that something happened to the Elder.” Mary was so nervous that she

wanted to explain

However, the Second Elder quickly interrupted, “Madam, may I ask where your bodyguard is now?”

Mary looked puzzled, “Wasn't he outside guarding?”

The Second Elder sneered, “Madam, do you really don't know, or are you pretending? Your personal

guard is a traitor. I suspect you came to our leader with an ulterior motive.”

The Greatest Elder was furious and he was the first to refute.

“Andre! Pay attention to your words. Don't speculate without evidence and slander madam.” The

Greatest Elder was always protecting Mary.

The Second Elder looked at him disdainfully, “Fusco, we all know what you're thinking about. It's

urgent now and I don’t want to argue with you about your selfishness.”

“Fusco, it was your book that was lost this time. We have reasons to suspect if you had colluded

with outsiders long ago and sent the book out. Otherwise, how could those people be found so

quickly in such a short time?”

The Greatest Elder was furious. “Andre, don't slander me!”

“If we hadn't had a mole, how could we have lost our ancient books, and those outsiders were

rescued in such a short time? Even Miss, who was trapped in an iron cage had escaped.”

“How would I know!"

The Greatest Elder and the Second Elder quarreled again.

Only their Chief showed a cold expression after hearing their talk. Suddenly, he became sullen and

slapped Mary in the face.

He used so much strength that he left deep red bruises on Mary's light face. She was shocked and

half of her face was numb with pain.

The Greatest Elder and Second Elder immediately fell silent.

Everyone lowered their heads in fear.

"You have a capable daughter.” The Chief glared at Mary and gritted his teeth, saying in a gloomy

tone.

"), L..." Mary was beaten so hard that her face and mouth hurt. She was so aggrieved that she

sobbed, “My daughter, my daughter, is dead.”

“Chief, I have been with you for so many years, don’t you trust me? I ordered her to be killed to

show my loyalty to you. She was already dead in the iron prison. The Second Elder is slandering

me."

These were all told to her by her bodyguard. When she came out of the guarded cave in a daze, the

guard told her that he cut Christina's neck artery and blood gushed out. The guard helped her out

when she was dizzy by the blood.

When the Second Elder heard this, he laughed sarcastically, “Madam, if you don't have ulterior

motives, you are foolish.”

“Your personal guard has disappeared!”

"Our people saw your bodyguard saved those outsiders.”

At this moment, Mary's mind was in a mess, and she still didn't believe these words. Her bodyguard

had followed her for many years, and he had helped her solve a lot of problems especially in the

past few months. He solved everything perfectly and had been loyal to her and saved her life many

times.

“Foolish!” The Chief looked angry and slapped her on the other side of the face.

Mary was beaten so hard that she fell to the ground. She covered her painful face tightly and felt

very aggrieved. She wanted to cry but did not dare to cry out.

When the Chief saw her like this, not only did he not feel pity for her, but he also felt more and

more annoyed. He gave her a rough kick on the back and roared, “Get out, get out of here now!”

Seeing this, the Greatest Elder wanted to go up and hold Mary, but he couldn't. His head was

lowered, and his eyes were filled with pity and worry.

Mary shivered awkwardly. She was trembling as she sat up and went out.

The Fifth Madam was also in the room and she was secretly happy to see this scene. With the favor

of Chief, Mary always provoked them unscrupulously and didn't want them to live well. Seeing Mary

being slapped made the Fifth Madam happy.

The Fifth Madam approached the chief intimately and said gently, “Chief, there's one thing I've

never dared to tell you. Actually, those outsiders were all brought in by Mary, Mary even sneaked

out of the island while you were out.”

Since Mary was out of favor now, the Fifth Madam wanted to hit Mary when she was down to let

Mary lose the Chief's favor forever.

However, the Chief was not happy to see anyone at this time. He rudely pushed the beautiful Fifth

Madam hard and told her to go away.

He was tired of these women's intrigues.

In the past, he had enjoyed the jealousy of these women for him. But over time, he felt that no

matter how beautiful they were, they couldn't compare to his first lady, Alisa.

Seeing the Chief treating his woman rudely, the Elders lowered their heads and did not dare to

speak.

“Why are you still standing here? Send someone to chase them!”

The Chief stood up, holding the Golden Scepter in his right hand tightly, showing his supreme

power.

He ordered angrily, “Bring back all those who escaped!”

At this time, Lucy and the others, who were running for their lives, shuttled through the thick trees

and ran quickly in the night.

"Are there any pursuers behind?"

Charles couldn't run anymore and asked the person in front of him breathlessly.

"We can slow down and take a rest.” Gary was not sure. He took a long breath and felt really hungry,

tired, and thirsty.

“We can hide under the hillside ahead and rest for the time being.” Lucy made an experienced

suggestion after exploring the terrain ahead.

There was a meandering river at the foot of the hillside. The river was clean and they could drink its

water.

“Lucy, I thought you were dead.”

“Lucy, I didn't expect you to still be alive. We couldn't believe it when the boss mentioned you.”

Gary and Crabbie rushed over and hugged her enthusiastically. They even pinched Lucy's face and

chin to make sure that she was not a ghost.

“Damn it, stay away from me!” Lucy snorted.

She really can't stand their enthusiasm.

“Lucy, welcome back!”

It was so rare to be reunited after a long time. Gary held her head warmly and messed up her hair,

“Lucy, you look very handsome pretending to be a man.”

"How did you become Mary's bodyguard from Barbarian Island and dress up as a man?”

The team members echoed, “Lucy, you have an advantage with your flat chest. I think you are really

no different from us. Hahaha...”

Lucy could be said to be their great savior. Now they were out of danger and everyone was in a

good mood. They finally had time to relax a bit and joke.

Lucy was so speechless and thought why did she save these bastards.

Patrick squatted by the river and washed his face with cold river water. He stretched, stood up, and

looked at the team members who were chatting happily.

Patrick suddenly asked, “Where is Christina now?”

Everyone quieted down and looked at Lucy.

Lucy felt an invisible pressure. She cleared her throat and replied calmly, “She, she's with Raphael.”
