Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Sophie took a long time on the phone. She stood where everyone could see her, visibly agitated.

Towards the end, she even became agitated. After hanging up, she almost threw the phone in her hand.

Gao Tian quickly went up to her. “What happened?”

“My family asked me to suspend all the public welfare activities and transfer them back to the country as soon as possible, and it has to be done within three days,” Sophie said coldly.

“Why?” Gao Tian couldn’t understand. “They never interfered in these things in the past.”

“I’m not sure. Something must have happened in the country. Otherwise, they would never have done this.” Sophie sighed.

Zou Bai called Zou Yi over. “Let the Intelligence Network report what happened in Country F recently.”

Zou Yi quickly contacted the people of the Intelligence Network. They paid attention to the news of various countries and were also in charge of prying into the secrets of the aristocratic families and royal families of other countries.

Sophie looked at Zou Bai with admiration. “I’ve long heard that the Zou Intelligence Network knows everything. I didn’t expect them to pay attention to things in other countries.”

“If you want the clan to last forever, you naturally have to have some methods. Being able to know news before others is a very good method,” Zou Bai said.

!!..

The Intelligence Network answered very quickly. Zou Yi walked over and reported, “The current king of Country F is seriously ill. The doctor has determined that he won’t live for more than a few days. Now, the princes and princesses below are rubbing their fists and preparing to snatch the throne. The entire royal family is in chaos, but they haven’t announced it to the public.”

Sophie almost fell when she heard the news, but Gao Tian quickly caught her.

“Grandpa has always been in good health. How did he suddenly become like this?” Sophie wondered.

“Health of the elderly is always uncertain. They might have been fine a few days ago, but something could go wrong suddenly,” Jiang An comforted her.

Sophie knew this and could accept it, but the second half of the news made her angry.

“Grandpa is already in this state, but they’re still busy fighting for the throne. The crown prince has already been decided. What’s there to fight for?” Sophie asked.

Zou Yi lowered his head and said, “The crown prince has expressed that he doesn’t want to inherit the throne. He only wants to leave the royal family and marry the person he loves, so there’s no crown prince in Country F now.”

It was appalling. Sophie couldn’t control the expression on her face. She didn’t know what emotion to use to face the news.

Although she knew that her uncle’s relationship with her grandfather was very bad because her grandfather did not allow him to marry the person he liked due to her status, it was not a good time to say that he did not want to be the crown prince when her grandfather was seriously ill.

Since the crown prince had already said that he wanted to give up the throne, potential candidates would naturally compete.

Jiang An didn’t understand. “If the first in line gives up, then the next in line should become the crown prince, right?”

“It’s not like that in Country F.” Sophie held her forehead. “Even if you’re the successor, you need to be conferred the title of crown prince by the king. If the king doesn’t confer the title of crown prince in time, the candidate will need to be chosen by the royal family and the support of the people. Now that Uncle wants to give up the title of crown prince and Grandpa is seriously ill, everyone has equal rights.”

The king of Country F was not a mascot. As long as he could successfully ascend the throne, he would be the ruler of the country. No one could resist this temptation.

Sophie also understood why her family had called her back in such a hurry. They had even asked her to bring the charity projects back. This was an event that could win people’s hearts.

However, Sophie really did not want to get involved. She thought that she had already left the royal family and only retained the title of a princess.

In fact, she had long stopped using the royal allowance and lived in China on her own.

As for who could become the king, she did not care at all. In any case, it had nothing to do with her.

Her thoughts were written all over her face. Zou Bai said, “Sophie, even if you don’t want to help, you can’t stay out of this. The rest of the royal family doesn’t believe that anyone doesn’t have any thoughts about the throne. Even if you can successfully ignore this matter, if your mother snatches the throne, you will be the first successor.”

The royal family of Country F was not purely a patriarchal inheritance. As long as one had royal blood, they were qualified to inherit the throne.

Sophie’s mother was the king’s daughter and had the same status as the prince by blood. Even if Sophie was only the king’s granddaughter, she had the same rights as a male cousin.

This was a huge threat to others who wanted to snatch the throne..
