She said. “Kendra, did I ruin your life, or have you been daydreaming all along? Xander has never had any romantic feelings for you.
“On the contrary, you have been pestering him and you have always wanted to step on him to climb higher, haven’t you p>
When her thoughts were exposed, Kendra only felt embarrassed, and she clenched her teeth.
Her eyes gleamed with malice, as if she wanted to tear Athena into pieces. “Don’t look at me with that condescending gaze. I don’t need you to lecture me, and I certainly don’t need your pity p>
Kendra seemed to remember something as she said this.
Suppressing the anger in her heart, she looked triumphantly at Athena, “The outcome is not yet certain p>
Seeing that Kendra was incorrigible, Athena didn’t bother to argue with her.
Ahead was the Longstride Haven, where the wedding procession would stop.
Athena raised her hand to signal the procession to start, her voice steady and calm. “You’re marrying far away to Northcold. Be careful on this long journey p>
Kendra abruptly lifted her veil, and the pearls on her coronet clinked softly.
Stepping in her vermilion embroidered shoes, she walked up to Athena and looked at her haughtily, “You certainly know how to say pretty things p>
She suddenly leaned closer and whispered in a voice only they could hear, “It’s a pity that some people are destined to guard an empty title and watch others get what they want p>
Athena’s fingertips curled slightly in her sleeve, but her face remained calm. “Other people can’t envy your good fortune p>
Athena stopped and said, “Let’s part here p>
Kendra suddenly stepped forward and grabbed her wrist. “Won’t you see me off a little longer p>
She smiled smugly, her nails almost digging into Athena’s flesh.
Athena subconsciously tried to pull her hand away, but unexpectedly, a dagger suddenly slipped out of Kendra’s sleeve and pressed against her lower abdomen.
The two were so close, Kendra had a smile on her face, and to the people behind them, they looked like inseparable friends.
“You better not move, or if I accidentally hurt your child, it won’t be good,” Kendra threatened.
Athena’s breathing was a little uneven, and she asked through gritted teeth, “Kendra, are you crazy? How dare

you kidnap me in front of the wedding procession? What exactly do you want? You can’t really think you can succeed, can you p>
“Guess.” Kendra curled her lips triumphantly, suddenly grabbed Athena, and put the knife to her neck. “Don’t
move p>
The sharp dagger pressed against Athena’s throat. Kendra looked at her delicate neck and couldn’t wait to cut open her skin and flesh with a knife to see her blood flowing.
But when she thought of her alliance with Ray, she could only suppress this murderous intent.
If Athena were dead, she couldn’t live.
The abnormality between the two finally caught the attention of the people behind them, and someone shouted, “Protect Mrs. Cavendish p>
Just then, a group of men in black suddenly sprang out.
They held smoke bombs and threw them at the wedding procession.
Suddenly, smoke filled the air, and screams rang out.
The neat formation was immediately thrown into chaos, and in the chaos, Athena wanted to break free from Kendra’s hand, but someone covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief.
A familiar scent came from behind.
In her blurred consciousness, Athena saw Ray’s face.
Ray said, “Atheny, don’t be afraid, it’s me p>
“You…” Athena only uttered one syllable before passing out.
Ray’s eyes were full of guilt, but he couldn’t bear to watch Athena marry Xander and have children for him.
He swept Athena up into his arms, stuffed her into the carriage, and carried her away in a frantic escape.
When the smoke cleared, the surroundings were a mess.
Athena and Kendra were both gone.
Xander rode over and saw carriage tracks in three directions.
“Chase them!” He pointed his sword into the distance, his voice laced with ice, “Even if we have to chase them to Northcold, bring them back to me p>
