Theo shrugged and swore not to approach Isabella to talk about things outside the original plotline.
[But, hey, I will still get bonus points if I assist Isabella to change her fate and break the plotline, right?]
Gary immediately reacted.
[Of course! And since we suspect Isabella to be replaced by a host, if the host can complete their mission and break the plotline cleanly in this round…]
That would be great for all of them!
Gary quickly continued his words.
[You will get more bonus after the plotline deviation reaches 100%. The more you contribute to the plot deviation, the more bonus points you will get!]
Theo's eyes shone, and he quickly smiled at Gary.
[Good. Let's watch Isabella closely and help her as much as we can.]
Without being OOC, it is.
Mariella, the host who replaced Isabella, had no idea that there was another host possessing another character not far from her place.
Currently, she is facing the prime minister's questions and doubts.
"Your majesty, it's not that I oppose you for adopting Duke Fez as your father, but…"
"But, what?" Mariella replied carelessly with a slightly irritated tone of voice.
She tapped her armchair and squinted at the prime minister.
"That…" The prime minister squeezed a friendly smile before glancing at Duke Fez.
"I just don't know if Duke Fez is willing...because he's really busy, your majesty. And he doesn't know how to be a good father."
The prime minister still tried to persuade Isabella but Mariella got mad instead.
She slammed the table with her little fists and glared fiercely at the prime minister.
"What do you mean by that? Do you think my eyesight is bad to pick Duke Fez as my dad? Are you insulting me?!"
Mariella's ability to turn things around was really superb.
The prime minister choked on his next words and almost got a heart attack.
Since when did he say that Isabella's eyesight wasn't good because she picked Duke Fez?! He clearly wanted to denounce Duke Fez, not the queen!
Duke Fez heard Mariella's subconscious answer and couldn't help but chuckle.
This child...her tongue is still as sharp as ever...maybe she didn't mean to say that, but she already has a reflex to blame everyone around her and make everyone a bully.
'Play victim' trick to its finest!
Duke Fez didn't think that subconscious skill was good for a child, but for a queen, that was a good skill.
And so, Duke Fez stayed silent while Mariella bombarded the prime minister to death.
"Uncle prime minister, do you think that my guardian should still be you? Come on. My eyesight isn't that bad!"
+1000 blows to the prime minister!
"Let's not talk about my adoptive father anymore. It's not like my adoptive father is gonna be your adoptive father too."
+10.000 blows to the prime minister!
The prime minister was too speechless to speak, and the other officials were also in a tight spot.
They wanted to laugh at the prime minister because the queen's words were just too funny, but they were afraid of offending the prime minister…
Of course, those in the prime minister's faction were itching to stitch Isabella's mouth instead.
That mouth brings disaster! It can kill without even lifting a finger!
Ignoring some of the officials and the ministers' dark faces, Mariella moved the discussion to another topic.
"Right, this time, this queen comes here not only to introduce my new dad."
Mariella swept her malicious gaze over the ministers and officials, instantly making these people weak in the knees.
What kind of trouble would this queen create this time? Hasn't she caused enough trouble and left the mess for them to clean up?!
Of course, the rightful ministers and officials thought that, but the corrupt ones were instantly excited.
Here we go. Another chance to make the queen as their scapegoat!
It was because of this attitude that people could easily put all the blame onto Isabella's head.
They maliciously twisted Isabella's words around, pushing her to be the sinner instead!
But unfortunately Mariella's next words shocked all the ministers and officials, especially the corrupt ones.
"This queen is here...because this queen has been bullied by some of you, bad uncles and aunties!"
The officials and ministers' positions weren't limited to men only. There were many smart and crafty women too.
But everyone was currently shocked by the word 'bullying'.
The officials and the ministers instantly broke in a cold sweat.
Bullying? Your majesty, who would be so bold to bully you except for Erick, your fiance?!
The prime minister hurriedly acted out his role as the 'good guy' and asked in a voice full of worry,
"Your majesty, what do you mean by bullies? Who bullied you? This prime minister will punish them for you!"
Mariella tacitly ignored the prime minister's oscar-level acting and beckoned Duke Fez to come forward.
"This queen doesn't understand, but some of you guys create bad rumours for me, and that means bullying!"
She looked up at Duke Fez and signalled him to take control.
This way, she would still be the ignorant queen, a tyrant who knew nothing except for having fun.
Duke Fez received the signal and immediately stood beside Mariella as he slapped a bunch of papers onto the meeting table.
"Look at all these documents. This is evidence that some of you are 'bullying' the queen! Let me explain one by one."
Duke Fez called out the corrupt ministers and officials one by one and stated their misdeeds.
He's exposing these people right in front of the whole cabinet!
But that wasn't the end.
Everything became even more chaotic when Duke Fez called out to a certain someone…
"Prime minister!"
