"You don't need to deliberately try to figure out my thoughts, you just need to accompany me and be protected by me, that's enough!" The man smiled and dropped a kiss on her forehead, "It's late, go to sleep quickly."

"Mm." Freya closed her eyes and shifted her body to snuggle into his embrace.

Bradley raised his hand to stroke her hair, with tenderness in his eyes, but his gaze turned sharp and intimidating when it fell on the window for a moment!

Upon realizing he had been discovered, the other party quickly flashed away.

The next morning.

After Freya finished freshening up, she went to help Queen Sally with acupuncture. Shortly after the acupuncture session, a maid came in carrying a bowl of herbal soup.

This time, Freya did not immediately leave, but stopped the maid and asked, "What kind of soup is this?"

Pearl answered, "Lady Freya, this is a nourishing bird's nest soup specially prepared by the Earl for the queen, with added longans, red dates, and goji berries, nourishing yin and replenishing blood, which is said to be beneficial for the queen's health."

"Can I see it?" Freya requested, reaching out to take the soup.

Upon seeing Pearl take a step back, she warily said, "I'm sorry, Dr. Jane, the Count has instructed that due to the special status of the lady, I am solely responsible for her diet and daily life, and no one else should interfere." Freya raised an eyebrow, "Are you worried that I will tamper with the food?" Pearl replied, "I don't mean that. Please forgive me, Miss Jane. It's just a precaution. I can only do my job properly." Freya smiled at her response and didn't say anything further. Not looking bothered, as Bradley had already sent someone to the kitchen to find out what was added to the bird's nest soup, she had no worries about missing the opportunity. "You have considered it carefully. Indeed, it concerns the Queen's health, so extra caution is necessary in terms of diet." With that said, she picked up the medical kit as she passed by Pearl, then turned and left the bedroom. At the door, she watched as Pearl fed her master the bird's nest soup. Freya smirked and returned to the room to meet Bradley. "Your guess was correct. The person who monitored us last night was Pearl." Just as she passed by her, Freya paid special attention and noticed a distinct smell of disinfectant on Pearl's body.

Last night, after that person was discovered by Bradley, they got into a fight and both ended up injured and fleeing. Even though the other party was wearing a mask, Bradley could see at a glance that it was a woman. The master hinted that Pearl was sent by Count Silver. With the commotion last night, it would be strange if Count Silver didn't have someone watching them. However, Pearl is clearly a skilled and trained expert! Freya had a premonition that if they could capture this person, they might become their best weapon against Count Silver. "So this Pearl is crucial, we need to find a way to exploit her weaknesses and control her for our use." Bradley also had the same idea. With the palace now full of Count Silver's people, this passive situation is very unfavorable for them. Moreover, Pearl is clearly someone valued by Count Silver, and she may have insights into Everyone related to Count Silver and Lady. "I will handle her, as for you... focus all your attention on the underground laboratory, first loosen White's tongue and make him reveal all the sellers. We will destroy the lab and completely eradicate these malignant tumors," Freya said, with a serious expression. Bradley nodded, "Okay, let's split up and end this as soon as possible!" As the two were chatting, Bradley’s phone rang.

Picking it up and taking a look, it was a message from Lance.

"Young Master, as you expected, Count Silver sent someone to the Jane family early in the morning to inquire about Juliet. Everyone is being taken care of as per your instructions. The Jane family provided a photo, and the person holding the photo has already left."

"Good, continue to keep an eye on them."

Bradley didn't say much, he hung up the phone and carefully studied Freya's face.

Before coming to the palace, they had decided to use the identity of the Jane family to treat Queen Sally's illness. Freya also used her disguising skills to becomeher. If the other side is not skilled in disguises, they won't be able to recognize their identities at all.

However, Bradley still had some concerns. Freya's preferences are different from her, and he feared that with Count Silver's level of vigilance, he wouldn't just let it go.

Perhaps he would continue to test Freya.

"Why are you looking at me like that, is there something on my face?" Freya touched her face, feeling puzzled.

Bradley smiled, pinched her cheek, "Although we escaped this time, the road ahead will definitely get more difficult. So, my dear, promise me, prioritize your safety above all else, and do not act recklessly."

"I understand, husband," Freya said playfully.

"Alright, one has already arrived in the Kingdom of Saint Rock, I will personally go to meet him." Freya nodded, "Go ahead!"

...

After Bradley left, Freya sat on the sofa and thought carefully about how to approach Pearl.

According to her previous methods, she could just invite someone to drink tea at the Spirit Raven Pavilion, and with the various torture methods of the White Foxes, it wouldn't take long before she could get the information she wanted.

But this method wouldn't work here, after all, the Spirit Raven Pavilion was far away, and she didn't have the energy to go through all that trouble.

After much thought, Freya decided to have the White Fox secretly infiltrate the palace and directly eliminate Pearl and take her place.

After all, Pearl had been keeping an eye on her, and sometimes she and her master didn't see eye to eye.

If Pearl were to become the White Fox, Everyone would be much easier to handle.

With this idea in mind, Freya immediately contacted the White Fox and asked her to prepare to take down Pearl tonight.

Just after the task was released, there was a knock on the door from outside, "Miss Jane, the Earl considers it too hard for you to treat the queen, so he specially arranged for the kitchen to prepare some snacks for you." Just as Pearl was mentioned, the person arrived. Perhaps the person bringing snacks was not good! "Coming!" Freya said, getting up to open the door. Pearl stood at the door, holding a tray with a bird's nest soup and dessert on it. "Please come in," Freya welcomed the person in. After Pearl came in and put down the things, she carefully looked around and then asked, "Miss Jane, where is your husband?"Juliet was already married and had children, so this time sneaking into the palace, Freya had Bradley accompany her as her husband. She was the doctor, and Bradley became her assistant. With such a legitimate identity, it wouldn't make people suspicious.

"He went out to help me fetch the medicine," Freya found a plausible excuse. Pearl stopped asking and just smiled as she pushed the birds' nests towards her, "Miss Jane, drink the birds' nest while it's still warm. I stewed it for a full three hours, so it should taste good." With that, she lifted the lid of the soup cup. Freya glanced over and discovered that the birds' nest had been added with many ingredients, all of which were nourishing and blood-tonifone, similar to what her master usually drank. It was precisely because of this that it seemed strange!
