Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 3514

When they returned to the residence, Isabelle sat down, poured herself a big glass of water, and breathed a sigh of relief. "Thanks to His Majesty's wisdom, we're finally okay."

As Isabelle spoke, she noticed that Fade was frowning. He looked worried and she couldn't help asking.

"Mr. Chen, you're innocent. Why aren't you happy?"

Fade turned around and said in a low voice, "I'm afraid it's not that simple."

"Well, what else is there about this case?" Isabelle was confused.

Fade replied, "Didn't you notice that Santoso's and Elizabeth's attitudes were a little strange today?"

"King Hangong and Princess Elizabeth were very helpful in clearing our names," Isabelle said in confusion.

Fade shook his head. "It seems too perfect. That's what's suspicious about it!"

"Think about it. Don't you think the trial today went too smoothly for us?"

"Ah, this-" Isabelle realized Fade was right after she thought for a moment. However, she was still puzzled. "Is there anything wrong with this?"

"There's nothing wrong with this. It's just suspicious." Fade said, "As the ruler of a country, Santoso favoured me, the murderer of the sons of two ministers. What do you think his subordinates might think of this?"

"But- but you are innocent! His Majesty's ruling was reasonable," Isabelle said.

Fade chuckled and shook his head. "Do you think the king's ruling should be based on evidence or his personal feelings?"

"Even if Santoso is really fair and should decree me innocent, this day's trial is still too simple."

"Princess Elizabeth happened to have found

several witnesses, whose statements Santoso immediately believed. Besides, the other party didn't even have a chance to speak."

After hearing this, Isabelle thought about it for a while. In the end, she was still confused. She looked at Fade and asked, "Is there any problem with this?"

Fade sighed softly and said, "At present, I'm not sure. But I feel that there's more to this. It can't be so simple. In short, we should be careful."

"Yes, I will." Isabelle nodded with a serious look. "I won't get you into trouble again, Mr. Chen."

Speaking of this, Fade suddenly thought of something. "Hasn't Fire returned yet?"

Then, he released his soul energy and searched around, but still didn't find any trace of Fire.

He frowned and said softly, "Where on earth did that guy go?"

That day, Fade stayed by Isabelle's side and rested for the entire night.

Early the next morning, Elizabeth visited Fade with a motorcade of gifts. This was her way of paying her respects to Fade and Isabelle.

After they exchanged greetings, Fade sent Elizabeth and her men away.

In the afternoon, a huge news spread throughout the entire imperial city.

King Nangong thought that Thiono, the minister of military, and Gregory, the Duke of Pingling, had failed to discipline their sons properly, which resulted in them committing such a heinous act. As such, they were demoted and each of them was charged with a fine of a million Fire Crystals.

At this moment, the entire imperial city began to discuss this matter.

Some people didn't understand what had happened, so someone spread the news of what had happened at the King Mansion.

As a result, many people were discussing this matter.

"King Nangong did a great job at punishing those hedonistic men."

"That's right. Those guys have gone too far. I don't even know how many people they have harmed before. This time, they have finally gotten what they deserve."

"However, I feel that King Hangong's punishment was a little heavy. Ralfdo and Jose are dead, and King Hangong still punished them so severely. He's gone overboard."

"That's right. I heard that Isabelle's

husband is a wanted criminal called Fade from Yoraland. I wonder what King Hangong was thinking to be so biased towards foreigners? Mr. Xing and the Duke of Ringling are great heroes of the Southern Forest and have contributed a lot in the past."

"Making contributions doesn't give you a right to bully people."

"Well, they shouldn't be punished too severely either. It will make other officials feel bitterly disappointed."

For a time, the discussion became more heated. Hot only in teahouses and restaurants, but even passers-by on the street were also discussing this matter. Fade felt something oddly suspicious about this public discussion.

He specifically told Isabelle to be careful.

Two days later, the entire imperial city was still discussing this matter.

There were even many ministers who jointly submitted an order to plead for Thiono and Gregory, begging His Majesty to withdraw his orders.

However, Santoso's attitude was firm and he insisted on his punishment. He even severely hit the ministers who were begging for mercy. Because of this, no one dared to plead for Thiono and Gregory.

The gate of the two originally important ministers' mansion became desolate.

Obviously, everyone could see that the both of them were about to lose their power, so they cut off ties with them.

The two families also kept a low profile after this incident.

In the evening, the dark clouds were dense and the wind was fierce. Heavy rain poured down from the sky at night.

In an instant, the entire imperial city

was enveloped in rain. The originally lively streets suddenly became

empty and quiet. There were onlinet

yellow lights shining from the

windows, glowing with warmth.

In the bedroom, Fade closed the window and lit a brazier to warm up the room.

"The weather is bad. Go to bed early tonight!"

It was still pouring in the middle of the night. The heavy rain only worsened.

The strong wind whistled and blew open the window of the bedroom.

Fade, who was lying on the bed, was instantly awakened.

Just as he was about to get up, he felt a cold Qi-blade coming towards him.

Fade's expression froze. He immediately activated his positive energy and struck out with his palm.

With a bang, the Qi-blade was hit by Fade and shattered.

Then, a figure sped up and rushed towards Fade again.

At the same time, the bedroom door was also knocked open. Another figure rushed in and attacked Isabelle who was on the bed.

"You're courting death!" Fade was furious. His positive energy surged wildly as he threw a punch at the second figure.

The figure raised his left hand to block Fade's attack, and continued to attack Isabelle with his right hand.

However, his left hand broke as

soon as it came in contact with

Fade's fist. The huge force

continued to surge and smashed the

black figure. He fell heavily into the

ground and instantly lost his breath.

The first black figure was already in front of Fade, and was about to attack.

Seeing this, he was shocked and attempted to escape.

"Trying to escape?"

Fade snorted and made a grasping motion with his left hand.

Like an invisible thug, he grabbed the black figure and pulled him back.

The black figure was stunned. He let out a long howl and called for help.

However, halfway through his howl, Fade dragged him into the house. With a punch, he lost his breath.
