Chapter 1026 Back at Hell Monarch Estate, Violet jumped out of the carriage and gave a few quick hops at the gate, shaking off all the bad energy that had clung to her. Her face was ashen with fury.
"What the hell was that? How dare he have designs on me? Doesn't he realize his son is older than I am? That shameless old fart!" she roared.
Luke happened to be walking out at that moment. When he overheard Violet's words, he took a step back, his round face looking thoroughly confused.
Why would someone be shameless just because they were old? Carissa, just as upset, pulled Violet into the estate. "Don't go to Edgeview Estate again. The way his eyes were all over you... Just thinking about it makesfeel like you've been sullied. It's disgusting." She couldn't tell if the man she saw tonight was still the ambitious man she knew it was like he had turned into a completely different person. He was nothing but a pervert.

Jacob listened with a stunned expression. "No way... It was that obvious?" "It was that obvious," Rafael confirmed, shaking his head. “I even wondered if he was someone else in disguise." Rafael had been mulling over this on the carriage ride back. Based on what they had learned, Yuvan wasn't the type to be interested in women. No matter how beautiful a woman was, to him, they were just pawns. He mostly used women to manipulate Valken's officials, all of them carefully chosen for their beauty.
Even his marriage to Molly was more about getting access to the Spencer family's wealth, weapons manufacturing, and warhorses than anything else.
Rafael couldn't make sense of what he had seen. Once they sat down, he asked, "Carissa, do you think it's possible he's not really Yuvan? That the real Yuvan has already gone back to Valken?" Carissa was still seething with anger, but she calmed a little as she thought about what Rafael had said.
It wasn't entirely out of the realm of possibility. In the martial world, disguises were so skillfully done that sometimes, it was impossible to tell the difference unless one was paying close attention.
Even Jacob thought it was highly likely. From what they knew about Yuvan, he would never behave so recklessly. Even if he did have designs on Violet, it would only be because she was the favored daughter of the Spencer family 1/2 +25 BONUS Chapter 1026 If that was the case, then he certainly wouldn't have left such obvious signs.
The three of them fell into deep thought, pondering the possibilities.
Violet had initially disagreed, but seeing that the three smartest people in the estate all thought the sway, she found herself wavering.
Could it really be a fake Yuvan? Meanwhile, Travis was fuming.
"What do you mean, fake Yuvan? It's him, alright! If he's different from before, it just means he was pretending before. Violet is the Spencer family's daughter, and she's good-looking.

Lettell you, men can be so full of themselves. They think we can't see through their intentions. They think they're hiding it well. Did you hear the last thing he said? What was it? 'I misspoke. Please forgive me, my dear?' I just want to slap him!" Violet shuddered at the memory of those words. Suddenly, she found herself agreeing with Travis.
"Rod is right. I think that's his true nature. He's just been hiding it until now."
Travis patted his chest proudly.
"That's right! You can truston this. My mentor listed a thousandh types of bad men, land Yuvan is just like one of them. My master never gets it wrong-Yuvan is like a scruffy peacock, proudly showing off his feathers without realizing how ugly he looks." The three who were overthinking froze for a moment when they heard Travis' words. His mentor said that? Then, it must be reliable.
"Seriously, trust me," Travis continued. "My mentor says that no matter how powerful or ambitious a man is, he can' he can't hide his intentions toward women. Carissa, you especially need to believe this. If Prince Rafael ever starts looking at another woman, you'll see right through him without a second thought." Rafael had been following Travis' line of thought, but after hearing that last comment, his face darkened. "Nonsense! There's no way I'd be interested in any other woman."
Travis lifted his chin in defiance.
"Well, you can never be too sure. My mentor's list of a thousand men includes those who start off all innocent and full of devotion, but eventually turn fickle. And when those kinds of men turn, they're far worse than others."
