Chapter 1719: The Gap Between You and Me!
Selena's eyes flashed as Lillian caught her off guard and swept her leg. Lillian struck again with her
long sword, "If you're not happy, why don't you let it go? Emperor... I can do better than you!" Selena
grunted and raised her sword to meet Lillian's attack, sneering, "For this position, you caused so many
heroes of the Riddle Group Empire to die tragically. You killed the king with your own hands and your
hands are stained with their blood... what right do you have?!"
Lillian hesitated for a moment. Selena took advantage of this moment to kick her out and swung her
sword diagonally across while exuding an icy coldness mixed with bloodlust in her eyes.
"This strike is for Preston! He had the miraculous ability to create wonders that was revered by the
empire but because of you he died! He could have saved countless lives but now he is gone." Lillian
was hit on the wrist causing blood to spurt out. Selena kicked at Lillian's chest who staggered back
several steps before recalling another tragedy from before she retaliated again: "This strike is for
Eason! At only sixteen years old he should have been one of our empire's most outstanding archers
but because of your actions his life was destroyed!" Another mouthful of blood sprayed out from
between Lilian's lips.
The roar of fighter jets echoed in Selena's ears as she plunged into memories once more: "And this last
strike…is for Taylor! His son had just been born when you robbed him of his father leaving his wife
without a husband!" Another cut landed on Lilian's shoulder causing both their eyes to be filled with
redness due to all the spilled blood.
Lilian fell onto the ground looking up at Selena whose eyes were now completely crimson as she spoke
through gritted teeth: "For my empire I am willing to sacrifice everything even if it means being cursed
throughout history!"
"I can kill you once and I can kill you twice!"
"There won't be another Aarav or Osvaldo coming here to save your sorry ass!"
Selena was caught off guard when she heard the name "Aarav." Her heart raced with a familiar
excitement, and her vision momentarily blurred. Suddenly, Lillian lunged forward and aimed her knife at
Selena's heart. "Your Majesty, you lose!" she exclaimed.
Meanwhile, two privileged young ladies from the Riddle Group Empire were engaged in a fierce battle
within the palace walls. Outside, a tall figure approached the private residence of the governor. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Osvaldo looked up at the sprawling estate before him. Dante had discovered that Lillian owned four
private residences that could be used to hide people; he had already searched three of them without
success.
This was their last chance.
Osvaldo stepped inside and found himself in a heavily guarded hallway. It took him nearly an hour to
make his way into the main hall where he finally came face-to-face with Aarav - who was standing by a
large window overlooking the palace grounds.
The two men locked eyes unexpectedly but naturally as if they were meant to meet this way all along.
Aarav smiled slightly and said, "Thank you."
Lillian had left many guards and powerful weapons behind in this residence - perhaps for protection or
imprisonment or both - making it difficult for Osvaldo to escape without help from someone on inside
like himself. He stared at Aarav's face intently; it matched his regal demeanor perfectly... just like
Selena's would have if she stood beside him now...
In that moment, even Osvaldo couldn't explain the feeling in his heart.
"Come with me to see her," he said coldly.
Selena wanted to find her brother.
He promised to help her find him.
But Aarav seemed not to have heard him, walking towards the door. "Take her to the underground city
and... don't let her know I exist."
Osvaldo's tone grew colder. "But she already knows!"
Selena knew she had a very good big brother who cared for her deeply.
She also knew that she was missing a piece of memory - one that involved someone who had been
with her as she grew up and was connected with Riddle Group Empire.
Knowing Selena's personality, just hearing fragments of the name "Aarav" would trigger memories for
her again and again.
Aarav walked past him towards the night sky. "Then let her forget once more!"
Osvaldo didn't turn around but pointed his knife straight at Aarav's heart. "What are you trying to do?"
He existed here, treated well and yet refused to acknowledge Selena - his own twin sister.
No matter what happens, Selena would never hurt him.
So why can't he give his sister a little bit of trust?!
Aarav finally stopped in his tracks.
Two men stood back to back, one looking out the window at the Wangting and the other looking at the
night outside the door.
After a long while, Aarav suddenly spoke up, "There is no one in this world who loves her more than I
do. You... can't compare!"
Osvaldo understood what he meant.
It was precisely because he loved her that he couldn't bear to hurt her.
And once Selena found out about his existence, it could be a kind of... pain she had never experienced
before.
The tip of Osvaldo's knife slowly drooped down.
Aarav continued walking forward, "Although the underground city is not your home turf, it is still full of
danger. Protect her well."
As Aarav walked out of the gate, more than a dozen shadow-like figures appeared by his side.
Yunzuo walked up to him and looked at his pale face with concern. "Young master, your body..."
Aarav got into the car and said in an icy voice amidst the blood-red darkness,"Go to Princess's
mansion!"
...
As Lillian's knife was about to pierce Selena's heart, a hand suddenly reached out and blocked her
blade.
Lillian looked at the fair hand and a hint of shock finally appeared in her eyes.
When did that weak and frail emperor, who would fall with a gust of wind, gain such terrifying power?
Selena clutched the tip of her knife with the tips of her fingers, the bright red color of blood running
down her hand.
She kicked Lillian's knee with one foot.
Lillian's legs spasmed with pain, causing her to immediately collapse again.
Selena threw away her knife and, like an enraged wild leopard, flipped over and mounted Lillian.
She raised her bloody hand and smashed her fist into Lillian's heart. "I'll tell you a truth!" Updated at

"There has never been anything that I couldn't do, only things that I didn't want to do!"
Along with his words, another fist smashed into Lillian's face. "This is the difference between you and
me!"
"Between you and me, you will always be the loser!"
After Lillian finished speaking, her slender legs suddenly lifted and heavily slammed into Selena's back.
