Mikayla only gave a faint smile.
Luna was a general in the military, and in Chetvine, her reputation was rising fast. Countless wealthy families wanted to connect with her, some even dreaming of marrying into her power. However, she had turned them all down.
Mikayla admired that rebellious streak. It gave her the rare feeling of having found someone who walked the same path as she did.
Yet at the same time, just like men competed with each other, women, especially extraordinary women, were just as competitive, maybe even more so.
Mikayla believed she should outrank Luna, only that she had not found the right opportunity to test their skills against each other.
"Speaking of which, what's Luna doing here?" Isabelle muttered.
Mikayla was equally curious about why Luna had come here. Then again, she was only curious; she did not want to investigate and was not really interested.
The factions in Chetvine were complicated. Luna belonged to Philip, while Mikayla's own backers were directly at odds with him. So, strictly speaking, she and Luna were on opposing sides.
Luna had also spotted Mikayla and Isabelle. She thought, 'Mr. Turman said the Cunninghams and the Robertsons are his sworn enemies. It looks like Isabelle, one of the White family's top three prodigies, is here to make her move.'
Her expression grew serious. She knew that if it came to a real fight, she should be able to stop Isabelle. However, Mikayla was another story entirely. Now the other side had two people, while she was alone, clearly at a disadvantage.
Then again, he could handle one of them once Andrew arrived, so it should not be a big problem.
Then a sudden realization struck Luna like lightning. Why had she even come to the airport in the first place?
Philip had not ordered her to interfere. He had only told her the Lloyd family's Dragon Prince was returning after ten years.
Sure, that alone was enough to rock the entire city, and it promised plenty of drama. But at the time, she had not cared much. She wanted to find the Dragon Prince, but she had no intention of meeting him in such a volatile place.
She never could have imagined that Andrew was the Lloyd family's Dragon Prince. In Blumedale, he had deceived her from the very beginning, and she had initially looked down on him.
