The Medallion novel Chapter 1048

"Take off your clothes so I can check if there is anything hidden on you. Only then will I believe you," Mia said coldly as she doubted about Rocky.

"Oh, so, it turns out that Master Mia likes to see men's bodies. Why didn't you tell me earlier, Master Mia?" Rocky responded sarcastically as he tried to tease her.

"Stop fooling around. I just want to double-check if you have stolen anything. And, who even wants to see you and your body? Shame on you!" Mia contradicted with slight fury, but her face blushed a little.

"Look! If you're not, then why is your face turning red? Have I just gotten you?" Rocky kept probing, reluctant to waste such a chance to mock Mia and shame her a bit.

"Are you that tired of being alive? I originally planned to let you go, but now it seems that there is no need. I'll take you to the Ji Clan immediately. Please keep in line!" Mia snorted coldly. At that moment, she was completely irritated and offended by Rocky's words and taunts. Without thinking twice, she stretched her body and approached Rocky with aggression.

At that moment, Rocky also wore a snicker on his face. In fact, seeing someone get angry from embarrassment gave him satisfaction. After all, this was his chance to get back at Mia, who used to play tricks on him before.

"Mia, what brings you here?" Just as Mia was about to make a move, a delicate figure came up from the second floor and interrupted her. It was nobody but Sabina. Soon after, she hurriedly called Mia's attention upon seeing the commotion between Mia and Rocky.

Mia turned around and saw Sabina. Then, she pointed at Rocky and snapped, "This man is a thief. I'm going to catch him."

"Thief?" Sabina immediately put her eyes on Rocky for questioning, but Rocky just shrugged his shoulders helplessly.

"Oh, Mia. I think you misunderstood. He is not a thief. He is... He's working for me," Sabina explained briefly.

"What? He's working for you? Then would that explain why he is in your Heavenly Frost Pavilion?" Mia cast a confusing glance at Rocky because she didn't completely believe Sabina's words.

"Yes, believe me. I'm telling the truth. His identity should remain confidential, so I always call him here when I need him to do something for me. Please, just forget about him. Why don't we go downstairs and catch up over a cup of tea?" Sabina cast Rocky a sidelong glance as she dragged Mia to the staircase.

At that moment, Mia was very reluctant to go, but she had no choice but to obey Sabina's request. Being a respectful guest, she gave Rocky another deep glance before following Sabina downstairs.

Meanwhile, Rocky was resting with his eyes closed when after two hours, he heard the footsteps coming upstairs. When he opened his eyes, he saw Sabina quietly entering his room. Seeing her, he immediately stood up and asked, "Did Mia leave already?"

"Yeah, she's gone. Didn't she recognize you?" Sabina asked curiously. Upon observing their little moment, she had noticed that Mia talked with Rocky as if she had never seen him before. Thus, she believed that Mia didn't recognize that the man she confronted was Prince Basil.

"Maybe I have changed a lot since then. So, she didn't recognize me at all. Otherwise, we will be in big trouble right now." Rocky smiled with calmness.

"Well, it doesn't really matter even if she finds out who you are. Both her clan and mine are close to my master. In case she finds out your identity, I think that things will be fine as long as you explain to her what's going on. Anyway, we're in the same boat now," Sabina replied. What Rocky didn't know was that Marcia had already made full use of her connections and had secretly gathered the support of many forces. But at this moment, all the forces she gained over were still in the dark. In fact, they weren't aware that Marcia was gaining support for Prince Basil, and not herself.

"Really? I think that's good." Upon hearing this news, Rocky put his heart at rest. At last, there was one less thing to worry about.

"By the way, I got the news that Alston has sent a special envoy to pick up my elder sister." Sabina's eyebrows furrowed as she relayed the news.
