Chapter 1360 She Compromised

"I'm here to ask you something," Alyssa said after exchanging the pleasantries.

"What is it that you want to know?" Laney asked.

"Well, I want to know exactly where Rocky is hiding Lena!" Alyssa directly said.

Hearing this, Laney couldn't help but tremble with shock. She knew there must be some reason why
Alyssa asked about Lena's whereabouts. Besides that, she knew that Lena was the woman that Alston
wanted to get the most. With those thoughts in mind, she had figured out Alyssa's purpose.

Seeing the expression on Laney's face, Alyssa knew that she had already figured out the purpose of
her visit, but she still demanded Laney in a calm and composed tone, "Don't say that you don't know
where she is. It's impossible for you not to know. I won't make things difficult for you if you tell me
where she is!"

"Your Highness, you know that I'm not allowed to disclose anything," Laney helplessly said. Although
she still greatly respected Alyssa, she was now Rocky's subordinate so she couldn't possibly betray
him.

"I know that you're not allowed to tell me. But you must, or else I'll..." Alyssa said as she suddenly
reached out and grabbed Laney by the neck.

A painful look immediately appeared on Laney's delicate face and her breathing became difficult.

"Tell me now. Don't make me kill you!" Alyssa coldly threatened. She was willing to do anything to know
Lena's whereabouts.

"No, Your Highness..." Tears welled up in Laney's eyes and she bit her pale lips. She was getting dizzy
and was about to pass out.



"If you still recognize me as your princess, please just tell me. I'm begging you. I need to know where
she is. I promise that I will never appear before you again once you tell me. Actually, I can find it out
anyway even if you don't tell me. But I don't want to make things more complicated. If you won't tell me,
I'm afraid more people will die in the end," Alyssa ferociously said.

Hearing this, Laney trembled with fear. She knew that Alyssa always kept her word. Eventually, she
had to compromise and tell her where Lena was hiding. With that, Alyssa immediately left without
looking back.

A few days later.

The Eternity City was in a small country which had been recaptured by the United Army. In the dead of
night in a big house in the northeast corner of the city, Lena was holding Nigel as she walked around
the house and told Nigel stories in a low voice to help him sleep. Soon enough, the baby was fast
asleep in her arms.

Lena took him to the bed and tucked him in. Then she sat on the chair and began to sew new clothes
for Nigel.

After Lance's death, Isis led the West United Army to keep fighting, so Nigel was left in the care of Lena
and Sue. After Lena had resigned as the Witch of the Holy Dragon Empire, she started to do things that
girls of ordinary families would normally do.

As the night went by, Lena became a little tired because of sewing. She put away her materials and
was about to go to bed when she heard some noise outside.

The house was guarded by a group of spirit manipulators arranged by Marcia and no outsider could
enter. So, as soon as she heard the noises outside, Lena immediately became vigilant. She quickly
picked up Nigel and was about to escape through the window. But in a blink of an eye, the door of the



house suddenly opened as if it was blown by a gust of wind. As Lena looked out of the door, she saw
that the spirit manipulators guarding the house had fallen to the ground.

"Who is there?" Lena coldly asked.

"Ah, Your Royal Highness, long time no see!" The voice sounded cold and familiar, and then a pretty
figure appeared in front of her.

Lena immediately recognized the intruder and exclaimed in surprise, "Alyssa!"

Lena had already heard about the news that Alyssa had defected to Alston, so she knew that it was a
bad thing that Alyssa suddenly showed up here.

"How did you even find this place?" Lena held Nigel closer to her and coldly asked. This place was very
secluded and difficult to find, but Alyssa unexpectedly came out of nowhere. Someone must have
leaked the information.

"Well, it's not really that difficult to find out. I have my ways as you may know," Alyssa coldly answered.

"I've heard about the death of the Timber Deity Empire's emperor. I'm sorry for your loss. But I believe
that Basil didn't kill your brother for no good reason," Lena firmly said.

"I didn't believe it at first either. But I saw it with my own eyes, and he didn't even give me an
explanation at all," Alyssa angrily said as she remembered the night her brother died.

"So, you want to get revenge on Basil by taking away Nigel?" Lena asked.

"I'm not here for his child. I'm actually here for you. Someone really wants to see you." Alyssa lightly
shook her head and wickedly smiled.

"Who is it?" Lena frowned at this.



"You must have a guess in your mind already," Alyssa bluntly replied.

"Alston? He wants to see me?" Lena immediately figured it out.

"Come with me now." Alyssa didn't seem to have much patience. She was worried that someone would
come and find her soon. Although the Eternity City looked extremely ordinary, there were many elite
spirit manipulators stationed here and Alyssa couldn't underestimate that.

"How can you even think that I'll go with you?" Of course, Lena wouldn't give in so easily to her.

"I know the Witches of the Holy Dragon Empire are born with innate power, but I also know that the
excessive use of this power will shorten their lives. Of course, you won't easily surrender and go with
me. But you must think about Basil's child. Once we fight here, it will be inevitable for me to hurt him,"
Alyssa evilly threatened.

"You're despicable!" Lena angrily snorted. She was becoming more desperate by the minute.

Alyssa remained expressionless and waited for Lena to take the bait.

Looking at the baby in her arms, Lena knew that if she started a fight against Alyssa, he would
definitely be hurt. For her, what she was most worried about was Nigel. After all, he was Basil's child.

"Fine, I'll go with you." Lena finally made up her mind. After kissing the forehead of the sleeping baby,
she laid him on the bed and covered him with the quilt. Then she walked towards Alyssa.

"I'm really sorry." Alyssa immediately reached out and pressed on Lena's shoulder. She used her
spiritual power to seal Lena's meridians in case Lena suddenly attacked her.

When Lena followed Alyssa to the door, she couldn't help but look back with sad eyes at Nigel before
leaving.



By the time the other guards arrived, Lena had already been taken away by Alyssa. The news of
Lena's disappearance soon reached the United Army and it naturally shocked Marcia and the others.

Isis was extremely anxious when she heard the news because she was worried about Nigel. She didn't
feel relieved until she was totally sure that Nigel was safe.

Marcia knew that this was of great importance, so she immediately informed Rocky with the Carrier
Beast. It was already three days later after Lena's disappearance when Rocky arrived at the Eternity
City.

With a poker face, Rocky was standing at the house where Lena disappeared. Meanwhile, Sue was
standing aside with Nigel in her arms, not daring to approach him at all.

"This is all my fault. If I hadn't fallen asleep, maybe Her Royal Highness wouldn't have..." Sue felt
incredibly guilty. She should have accompanied Lena that night, but she was totally exhausted from
taking care of Nigel that morning. She took a nap that night since she didn't expect that something like
this would happen.
