Chapter 249: 249
Chapter 249: The War Between Women
About half an hour later, Miles walked out of the office.
Nobody could judge the outcome of the conversation with Miles’ cold expression.
Sean subconsciously gulped.
Miles crossed his arms and stared coldly at Hathaway. After more than ten seconds, he finally said, “There are no outsiders here. I have a question to ask you…”
Hathaway slowly raised her head calmly.
“How many photos of the crown prince are there? How many people know about it? Have the photos been circulated?”
This was the question that Peter was most concerned about. After all, the image of the royal family was definitely not something that could be restored with money and power.
Now, he had to know the scope of the influence.
“I still have copies of them in one of my secret strongholds. They haven’t been circulated. But… There are many people who knew about the crown prince’s hobby. I don’t care about these photos. If you want them, I’ll provide them…” Hathaway’s voice was calm.
“I hope you’ll keep your word or else you’ll face the consequences that you cannot bear.” Miles’s tone was stern.
After solving the most important problem, he spoke of Secretary Peter’s decision, “Hathaway’s crime of threatening the royal family and manipulating public opinion has been established. It cannot be changed and there’s no room for argument! She must be punished…”
“Captain! Please, it hasn’t caused any big losses!”
The most nervous person was naturally Belinda. Although the two were not blood-related, they were the only family members they had now.
Sean also muttered, “Bauer’s injury was caused by the Second and Third Divisions. It has nothing to do with Hathaway…”
However, the captain gave him a sharp look, which scared the guy so much that he felt goosebumps all over his body.

Locke ate his hot dog and waited quietly.
Hathaway, on the other hand, looked calm as she held her sister’s hand tightly. She was prepared for the worst.
“Remember to take care of Master and find a way to lift the curse. Also, you have to strengthen your Battle Beasts. Don’t make me worry…” Hathaway spoke as if she was talking about the afterlife.
Belinda also cried out and hugged her tightly.
“You… Cannot leave Water City for five years! Continue to build this place! Provide safety and protection for His Majesty’s people! As for the issue of the election, that will depend on the results. Anyway… They are all awake now…”
Miles’ words were clear!
In short, Water City was now in Hathaway’s hands, but she had to be honest and not do anything out of line.
Moreover, Miles seemed to want to let her go.
“Long live Captain! You’re so kind!” Belinda turned from feeling sad to happy in an instant! She pounced on Miles and pulled his arm like a spoiled daughter.
“Captain is wise! Secretary Peter is wise!” Sean smiled and lit a cigarette.
The reaction of these two people made Miles blush.
Belinda’s appearance made him even more embarrassed.
“Thank you… Thank you…” Hathaway covered her face and cried again. The feeling of having survived a disaster made her feel relieved!
Then, she looked at Locke gratefully with a smile on her face as if she had a thousand words to say to him.
At this moment, a figure blocked their line of sight.
“Hathaway! Don’t go too far. Did you ask my permission to stare at my man like that?”
Belinda put her hands on her waist and looked down at the other party.
Hathaway’s strong personality was also activated once again. She returned to her previous high and mighty character and laughed lightly. “Hehe… Your man? How can you prove it? If I remember correctly, you’re still a virgin, right? Could it be that you guys have already…?”

She stood up and deliberately puffed out her chest as if she was demonstrating something.
Belinda, who had been hit in the soft spot by the other party, blushed all the way to her neck!
This statement also surprised Miles and Sean!
They did not expect that Belinda, who was good at seducing people, had not experienced it before?
This chapter is scrapped from readlightnovel.org
Belinda stammered, “So… So what! It’s mine anyway! Me and him, you wouldn’t understand!”
“Hahaha… I knew it, then do you know men? Do you know how to make him happy? I know his preferences very well…” Saying that, Hathaway winked at Locke who was eating.
It was as if she was declaring her sovereignty to him!
The sisters who had been caring toward each other suddenly became enemies when it came to Locke!
The conversation at the scene was too explosive. Miles and Sean swallowed their saliva. They felt that the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
A little spark could cause an explosion on the spot!
After exchanging a look, they quietly slipped toward the door, afraid that the sisters would hurt the innocents later!
Locke was not stupid. From the moment Belinda’s aura suddenly changed, he had been thinking of a way to retreat. He could not stay in this place anymore!
Locke quietly summoned Twin-headed White Jade Snake and prepared to use Spatial Movement to escape.
“Locke! Tell us, who’s your woman?” Hathaway asked.
Belinda also shouted, “Locke! Did you forget that we were together in the room a few days ago?”
However, when she turned her head to look at Locke’s direction, he was already gone!
“Hurry up and go!” Seeing that Locke had already flashed in front of her and ran toward the stairs, Miles pulled Sean along and followed!
“Look at how you’ve pushed Locke away! I’ve already said that you don’t understand men! You’ll always be a young girl!” Hathaway began to blame Belinda.
Belinda, who had an angry look on her face and was clenching her fists so hard that they were cracking, said, “Stop saying that he is yours! I’m going to beat you up!”
“Hehe! Come on! It’s been a long time since we fought! I really miss teaching you a lesson!” Hathaway took off her coat.
“Bang… Bang… Bang… Bang…”
The three people who had just run downstairs heard the sound of glass shattering and tables and chairs flying everywhere in the big office upstairs!
“The women… Are really something!” Sean covered his hat with cold sweat on his face.
“Dismissed! Let’s go have a drink!” Miles just wanted to leave this d*mn place immediately.
…
At night, at the barbecue stall on the riverbank of Water City.
“Ah, great! Another drink!” Miles raised his empty beer glass and shouted.
“Locke, how did you make two beauties fall in love with you? Teach me!” Sean was a bachelor and he looked at Locke with a smile.
“How would I know? I just did what I had to do…” Locke did not know how to explain what had made those two fell in love with him.

"In a lot of ways, Snotlout is very much Spitelout's son," said Freda. Torben did not need to see her face to hear in her voice that she wanted to say more. "One can hardly help but notice," he said when she didn't immediately continue. "But," she added hesitantly. "In more subtle and quiet ways he is much more my son." Torben turned his face toward the sun, the heat of it warming his skin though his world remained dark. "Even without my sight I could see that.

The Eternal Vigil
The year is 2220, a time when governments and nation-states are slowly becoming a thing of the past. Instead, all prominent parts of human society are now organizing around the commands of three great Artificial Intelligences, owned and operated by the world's largest corporation. World peace has been achieved, and the very word 'politics' has disappeared from people's lips. Religion has largely disappeared, replaced in some parts by worshipping of the great AIs, but mostly substituted by a devotion to material goods and faith in the market. There is now a general consensus that the best form of government has been found. No, it is not democracy, nor is it autocracy or oligarchy. Instead, it is technocracy - rule by the learned, the intelligent, and the skilled. And who are more learned, intelligent, and skilled than the great AIs? Exactly, no one. The AIs will correct some market failures once in a while, but shall otherwise let the market be free. After all, the freer the market, the freer the people. Some may question how society advanced to this stage, but that is all they will do - question. Because they will not find answers, for history is no longer taught anywhere. After all, it is not a practical subject. One cannot get a decently paying job with a history degree. Society doesn't have any time for people to idly ponder about the past. No, this is a practical society of practical people: engineers, doctors, lawyers, developers, managers, bankers, soldiers, and the such. My name is Aiden Scivit and I used to be one such practical man: minding my own business, doing my job, with the faith that hard work will always be rewarded by the market...and that politics and philosophy were things thought of by idly people who leech off society. But this all changed, and here is my story, my history. Just because the stories of ages long past have been erased, does not mean that a brand new beginning cannot be created. The story is already finished but I still need to do some editing so a chapter should be released each day for a month. It is a bit political, as you can probably tell by the introduction, so there is that (it will low-key read like a philosophy dump 10% of the time, so really it's like Atlas Shrugged but liberal and worse lol). Also, I actually wrote this in grade 10 as part of my MYP Personal Project, and recently touched up on it for online publication. Finally, if you find the writing style passable and are interested in my other works, check out the one in the link below. It is a fantasy set in the Ancient Greek world, and is completed and uploaded in full: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/35099/the-oresteia-modernized
