Hidden genius: Black belly snake

Chapter 366: Both hubby and wifey are mad! Part3

Charlotte trembled in anger. She was tired of the man's indifferent face and she had had more than enough of his aloof attitude.

She might have drooled upon seeing such an expression from him a while back being the brainless bimbo that she once was but now she knew better.

"You know what I thought that you were better than this, but I guess you never really were."

"You only care about yourself and you probably always will. Even if you won't help, I know how to save the woman I love."

"I don't need anyone else's help. Hmph." Charlotte angrily blurted out, completely losing control of herself in the courtroom.

But how could Xander still remain calm especially after hearing the last few words?

Initially, he had decided to overlook this little tantrum but he simply couldn't tolerate how Charlotte took her liberties and spewed out random lies in front of everyone.

Tang Yue had already confessed her feelings towards him and he would never doubt that, so he didn't like this slutty elf tarnishing her name willy-nilly.

"Aren't you being just a little too proud of being the third wheel in a relationship?" His lips curved upwards sarcastically.

Charlotte, who was about to leave after seeing that there was no point in talking to this asshole, stopped in her tracks.

"Who are you calling the third wheel? Everyone here knows that you are gay." 

"You are the pest who keeps bugging us and simply won't leave us alone to live in peace."

"If it was not for you, this would have never happened. I would have never let her leave by herself. Damn you." 

She cursed him hurriedly to her heart's content, venting her anger, and then ran away, turning on her heels without giving the man a chance to retaliate.

She didn't do it purposefully though. She was sure that he wouldn't help her and so didn't want to waste any further time.

Xander, on the other hand, was more than outraged.

If he wanted he could have stopped the woman, and thrown her in actual prison for a few more days but coincidentally he also didn't want to waste his time.

He did not need Charlotte to remind him as he had other plans of his own.

"If anyone breathes a word about what happened here outside of this courtroom, I will have your head." 

He muttered angrily and then waved his hand, signaling the elf on his right to continue with what they were doing before Charlotte had barged in.

Xavier, who was sitting on the other side, didn't miss this chance to nudge him lightly and whisper, barely containing his glee about this new information that he had acquired. "Have you guys have a threesome?"

Xander tossed him a death glare. "You know I am doing this for you, right? Aren't you going to be the Crown in my absence?"

"Or are you just not interested?" He angrily barked.

"Sigh. Brother, there are still three more days until you leave. So I am asking you again"

"Can you please please please change this decision of yours. Younger brother Xerxes is not too bad."

"He will probably do a better job than me. I would rather come with you. Please reconsider." Xavier whined, bugging the man.

"Shut up and pay attention. This is already decided." Xander harrumphed coldly, unwilling to discuss this any longer.

In his absence, he had no intentions of leaving Eldoria vulnerable.

Even though he had chosen Tang Yue over Eldoria, he was not completely heartless to do such a thing. 

He had a responsibility after all and couldn't simply ignore the millions of people who trusted him.

With Xavier here on the throne and all of his Generals and his personal army standing behind him, he would feel a lot more relaxed and guilt-free when he stepped out.

With this settled and the dwarf somewhat taken care of, Xander had already prepared everything for his departure.

In another three days' time, irrespective of what happened, he would be leaving the mainland and find his snake no matter where she was hiding.

He had already given her more than enough time and space. Surely, she couldn't have expected more than this from him? 

Xander grinned in anticipation of meeting that sly woman again. This much distance between them was something that he was not very fond of.

While Xander continued to patiently set his affairs in order before departing for his trip, a certain someone busied herself as well.

Charlotte left the royal palace in a hurry before the bastard could do something underhanded and stop her once again.

She directly rushed back to the Salvatore manor and headed to the second floor, ignoring her mother who was shouting at her about something which she completely brushed away.

On the second floor, Charlotte stood in front of a chamber and raised her palm to brashly bang open the two enormous doors of the chamber, leaving them completely unhinged.

"Here we go." She muttered and waltzed in without caring about the broken doors.

This was the Salvatore manor's treasury and she was raiding it once again. 

She had done this last time as well before heading to the Dwarven Empire and this time, she didn't even bother hiding the traces of her thievery.

She ransacked the entire chamber filled with various treasured items and rare-grade pieces of equipment.

Runes, pills, potions, gems, explosives, she grabbed everything that she could use and then some.

By this time, her mother had caught up to her and was standing at the entrance, gasping at the now empty family treasury.

"Charlotte! What is this? Stop right now. Your father is going to be angry."

Charlotte turned around and glared at her mother coldly. "Mother, I think that you are mistaken. He is the great General Salvatore. Not my father."

"Then why the hell are you raiding the family's treasury? This is all your father's blood and sweat. Leave it behind." Charlotte's mother angrily responded.

She had just heard some disturbing rumors and she wanted to talk to her daughter about it, but now she felt completely outraged.

Charlotte didn't bother explaining anything to her mother.

"I need it so I am taking. You can try stopping me if you want." She shamelessly harrumphed and then ran out of there at her full speed using the full power of her cultivation base. 

She was already brimming with resources and coupled with her recent loot, she was now ready to leave.

And unlike Xander, she planned to leave right this evening!
