Chapter 635
“What does that have to do with anything you’re doing now?” Arianna still could not get it. ” You’re not
thinking of replicating the exact candle, are you?”
There was mockery in her voice. It was a fact that Nathaniel did not know how to create fragrances
even after many years in the industry. He would not have to trick Lily if he had the capabilities himself.
“I wouldn’t know how to do that.” Nathaniel only smiled in the face of her mockery instead of getting
mad. “That doesn’t mean other people won’t know how to do it. Don’t underestimate these candles.
Once you add a little something extra in it…”
He gestured with his fingers to show her how little the amount had to be used to reach the effect he
was talking about. “Just this bit is needed, and then it could kill someone silently.”
Arianna felt a chill run down her spine as she looked into his eyes, subconsciously causing her to rub
her arms.

of Lily’s candle but included something else, right? How would you know if it were the same? Why
would Henry even need that?”
Arianna saw where his strategy was headed and was curious about why Nathaniel was so sure of his
success.
“Henry has done so much up to this point, and he’s so close to getting what he wants. He needed
convincing evidence, and the candle was his best bet. It’s just that, besides Lily, nobody in the Lodge
family knew anything about perfume making. That meant Henry was in a tough spot because he had to
think of a way to put the poison in the candle without making it obvious.”
“That’s why he’ll accept your help, and when we help him to secure his position, he’ll owe you a favor.”
Arianna nodded. She found that his plan made sense.
Everything was under their control. Never had Arianna imagined that such a change would happen
within the Lodge family. This was an opportunity the heavens gave her!
Arianna had been pondering ways to connect with someone more powerful. After all, she had offended
Alexander because of Brittany. She was aware that he was too busy just now to care about her but that
when he did, Alexander would ensure he taught her a lesson.
She wanted to win the game, and that meant she had to make a move first and get herself someone
strong to back her up. “By the way, Henry could take over Justin’s place in managing the Lodge family,
but don’t forget that he’d lost all his kickboxing skills. It’ll be tough for him. to secure his position, even if
he were to succeed in replacing Justin, without having any basic kickboxing skills.”
Since they were going to form an alliance, it was essential for them to get someone who was brilliant
and capable on their team. It would be a waste of their time and effort if they were to help Henry get
whatever he wanted, only for him to lose it all in the end.
“We don’t need to worry about that. I’m sure Henry is well–aware of this and has his own. plans to
secure his position.”
Seeing Arianna’s dubious look, Nathaniel simply mentioned, “I heard he went through some adventures

combat, and judging from their moves and reaction time, they’re probably well–versed in kickboxing
too. I’m just not sure which kickboxing family they’re from. I’m certain Henry has made ample
preparations since he dared return for the crown.”
He continued after a pause, “It’s true that all members of the Lodge family practice kickboxing, but I
haven’t seen any prodigies among them all these years. Rather than being low–key, I’d guess their
level of skills was declining. It might be sufficient for them to combat. normal people, but it might be
nothing compared to other kickboxing families, am I right?”
In retrospect, Lily was great at kickboxing, shocking Nathaniel so much that he did not dare to make a
move for some time. However, her skills seemed mediocre to him after he went through so much and
got in touch with the dark forces cultivated by Arianna.
He was only shocked back then because he had underestimated her.
