"Have you communicated with the other Dukes?"
Celia shook her head, "The families allied with the Glihuade family are your own, but the tense relationship you now have with your family makes it difficult for me to easily communicate with your father. After all, many people suspect you concerning the recent events. If I went to your father now, you would surely be unhappy."
"You know that's for the best."
"In fact, there are also reasons for me not to trust your father." Celia did not hide her thoughts. She was in urgent need of allies, and Lance was the one she trusted the most, far more than Major General Fu Xing. Forming an alliance with someone like Fu Xing would put her at a disadvantage.
She didn't want to be controlled by others again, unless it involved Ah Foo's life or death, so she would not easily contact Major General Fu Xing.
