The Commander's Useless Wife Is Actually a Hidden Boss!-Chapter 159 More Cunning than an Old Fox

Randall stood in place, disdainfully glancing at the body of the lady-in-waiting Nora, the corners of his mouth curling up into a mocking smile.

Ha-ha! These people, they weren’t just bullying the lady, it was clearly a plan targeting the commander.

However, the lady’s performance did indeed brighten his eyes.

Her ruthless actions had also won his appreciation.

"Ha-ha..." Randall let out a chilling laugh, contemptuously sweeping his gaze toward Princess Therese’s direction, the mocking smile on his lips growing even clearer.

Before coming here, he had anticipated various fearless troublemakers, and even prepared for the possibility that the lady would maintain her dignity and refuse to bow down.

Unexpectedly, the lady’s smooth kneeling action was truly clever!

The one who made a mistake turned out to be Princess Therese, who had always been seen as intelligent and people-friendly.

No wonder the commander didn’t like her.

"Admiral Frank, the situation is as such. Thank you for your understanding, but I cannot hand over Lin Fu," Fu Xing pressed his temples, his voice still unhurried, flowing like spring water in a ravine, deep yet firm.

On the other hand, Admiral Frank from the Royal Guard appeared on the screen, his temper explosive, on the verge of erupting.

"I cannot sympathize, this incident has disgraced our Royal Guard. Someone must pay the price." Admiral Frank appeared to be around forty years old, his personality serious and always tough to deal with in the Military Department. Moreover, the Royal Guard was exclusive to the Royal Family and not under the control of the Military Department.

It was inherently not part of the same system as the nine major cosmic fleets; the relationship was naturally distant.

As the confidant of the Emperor, it was even more necessary for Frank to keep his distance from the Great Nobles.

This was the first time Admiral Frank directly dealt with this youngest guardian duke, Major General of the Empire, due to conflict. He finally understood why so many big names in the Military Department sang such high praises of this young man.

He was even trickier than an old fox.

From beginning to end, words were spoken, attitudes shown, yet none hit the mark, making it impossible for him to even vent his anger.

"In that case, who would you suggest pay the price, Admiral?" Fu Xing’s eyes flashed with a barely noticeable sharpness, his tone remained indifferent. "If you really want someone to pay the price, why not wait a while? Let me uncover the person behind all this, how about that?"

Frank’s face stiffened, his expression awkward.

"In that regard, I have officially sent a joint letter to the Prime Minister’s Office, the Royal Secretary, and the Royal Administrative Chief, requesting them to first provide me with an explanation. As for the explanation you seek, I will give it."

Fu Xing’s words caused seasoned Admiral Frank’s eyelids to twitch uncontrollably.

That was ruthless!

One letter, sent simultaneously to three core ministers—this was no longer merely a criminal incident but a severe political one.

Frank took a deep breath, realizing that this issue had angered Major General Fu Xing even more than himself, and was more complex.

Now, he should not be the one most troubled.

"Alright, I understand." freewёbnoνel.com

Fu Xing’s lips curled up, "Thank you for your understanding, Admiral."

"Of course."

Frank was not in the mood to talk further, abruptly ending the call.

"Commander." Monger respectfully approached, holding a thin-as-cicada-wing Light Computer Terminal, saluting ceremoniously, "The Prime Minister wishes to speak with you. In addition, the Royal Secretary and the Royal Administrative Chief also request a call."

After finishing, Monger mentioned that the Light Computer Terminal flashed, he glanced down at it, and continued, "Also, the Chief of Military Court, Admiral Xia Zeming, the Military Court, and the Noble Elder Council have all sent call requests, and I have already arranged them in order of urgency."
