Go inside the church.

The inner court of St. Paul's Church is wide and tall, and the vaulted hall elevates this religious holy place. Even though it is cloudy today, there is still faint light shining in through the stained glass, covering it with a hazy fog.

All you can see are Baroque sculptures and wall decorations, and there are giant paintings of the Virgin, Jesus and believers on the walls.Everything looks solemn.

The aisle divides the seats into two sides, and most of the seats are already full.

At the end of the long blanket, the well-dressed priest was making final preparations, and the Holy See personnel were already in full battle.

"William, Harry!"

A woman wearing a black gauze hat came over. She looked at the people on both sides of Rhea in surprise and helplessness, and then her eyes fell on Rhea.

She did not vent her anger on Rhea, but gave a warm hug after sighing.

"Long time no see, dear Rhea." She comforted: "I hope everything will be fine."

Rhea smiled back: "Thank you, Diana."

The direct name shortened the distance between the two of them.Although they haven't seen each other for a long time, the closeness between Rhea and Princess Diana is even stronger.

After all, they have suffered together once.

But this does not mean that Diana will ignore her son's mistakes. Her first reaction was to stare at her youngest son, "Harry, you are not a child anymore."

Harry unceremoniously shirked responsibility, and suddenly revealed his brother's old background: "William insisted on doing this, and I did it to help him share the pressure!"

Diana turned to look at William, with reproach and understanding in her eyes.

William whispered, "I'm sorry."

"I'm the one who should say I'm sorry, and dragged them into my troubles. William wanted to help me..." Rhea had to stand up.

Diana didn't blame William, but just patted Rhea's forearm, "Don't be nervous, it will pass anyway."

She whispered to Rhea, "The will that Essex made before will be announced today, and people sitting here are more concerned about this matter."

The rich inheritance list includes the manor bestowed by Queen Victoria, the wealth accumulated by the family hereditary, and the thriving Nuoda industry...

That's what they really care about.

With this statement, the pressure on Rhea's body was relieved at once.

Rhea thoughtfully: "Thanks, I feel better now."

Diana nodded gracefully, there was no sign of a marriage falling apart on her face

Influenced by the influence, he just said lightly: "Okay, we have to go and take our seats."

She could have stayed where she was and waited for her two sons to come.

But Diana still chose to get up when Rhea came in, which in itself was already a gesture of support.Finding that the mother's attitude was not in conflict, the expressions of the two young people were relaxed.

Harry sent out the invitation ahead of William: "Riya, we're all together anyway, why don't you just sit with us."

"I have my own seat." Rhea didn't want to draw attention.

Just now that they are standing together, they have already attracted countless attentions.

A step behind, William was sullen and regretful.He couldn't teach his younger brother a lesson, and he couldn't force Rhea to stay, so he could only whisper to Rhea when he left: "Wait for me after the end."

Rhea had no time to refuse, so he followed his mother to the church pew on the right side of the front row.

Without the princess and the prince, she only stayed in place for a second, and she could feel people's eyes becoming more and more undisguised.Rhea directly found the seat arranged on the invitation letter and took a seat.

The intertwined eyes became hot in an instant.

Rhea could even hear some people gasp, as if she had done something more outrageous than hooking up with two princes at the same time.

what happened?

She was sure that she had counted the arrangement and absolutely found the wrong place.

Rhea turned her head casually, only to see two men in black suits sitting next to her.They were some distance away from Rhea, and because it was inconvenient to look directly at them, they couldn't see their faces clearly.

While she was still wondering, a deep English voice came from behind.

"This is the heir's seat." The familiar London accent made Rhea's scalp tingle. "Beside you are the two sons in Essex's rumors."

Rhea lowered her voice extremely low but still could hear the anger.

"Do you always frighten me like this, Mycroft!"

She had also confirmed that Mycroft Holmes was obviously sitting in the back corner, when did he move behind her?

The original guest is willing to move for him?

Mycroft Holmes satirized lightly: "Compared with every trouble you have caused, I think this little scare is nothing at all."

Rhea retorts: 'I didn't ask for it'

She looked around and found that the front, back, left, and right seats were all vacant, as if deliberately leaving a private space for their conversation.Only the two Essexes were still sitting beside her.

Even if they are not close, this distance

Li could also fully hear what Rhea and Mycroft were talking about.

Rhea couldn't help questioning: "You just talk to me like this, it's not like your style."

"Don't worry, those two 'sons' are just clones of Jedle Essex, they don't even have a sound consciousness." Mycroft said lightly.

But when it came to Rhea's ears, her heart suddenly dropped.

This time she didn't control it, she just turned her head to look, and the two men looked almost identical, no, to be precise, they were like copies, eyes, nose and mouth—yes, they were all young Jedr!

Only by making a difference in hair styling can the uncanny valley effect brought about when two identical faces come together can be alleviated.

Especially when Rhea looked at it consciously, she felt the weirdness even more.

There is not even a slight difference in their faces!

Sensing Rhea's eyes, they looked back instinctively, but there was no agility in their eyes at all, like a program response from a mechanical output.

Rhea quickly retracted her gaze and turned her head back.

She resisted the urge to curse, and asked the "Mr. Politician" behind, "What's going on?"

"You looked surprised. I thought you knew."

Mycroft snorted softly: "This is Jeddle's backup plan for his aging body. It's not surprising that he and Werther got so close. It's a pity that he died so suddenly that he had no chance to use it. "

No wonder Mycroft had always wanted Rhea to help him keep an eye on Andre Witter. It seemed that what he cared about was this cloning transfer that violated human nature——

But the question was how much Mycroft knew.

One thing Rhea can be sure of, he must not know Werther's "secret".

But he knew more about Essex than Rhea.

She wanted to ask a lot, such as "Why are they unconscious?", "Why did Essex prepare two?", "Will there be no problems if they are allowed to be displayed to the public?"

But in the end Rhea chose to ask the one that was most important to her.

"What about his 'daughter'?"

Rhea felt a chill in her heart.

The Eve and Adam that the old man keeps talking about—since he has prepared two unused clones as spares, then it is impossible for him to create only one "Eve".

"He died a long time ago, but he didn't announce it to the public. The success rate of the experiment is not [-]%, Rhea." Mike Luo

It was rare for Ford not to go around the corner. He told Rhea directly: "You don't have to worry about these, they are useless."

"What's the use then?"

Rhea kind of hated herself for figuring out what he meant so quickly.

It made her feel closer and closer to Mycroft, perhaps to Andrea Witter—

The man was sitting right behind her, and Rhea even had the illusion that he was whispering behind her ear: "You are very useful, Rhea."

"We can make a deal, do me a favor, and I'll make you the legitimate 'daughter' of Essex."

The magnetic, mature voice swept through Rhea's cochlea like a feather and sneaked into her brain.Again, he wanted to convince her, overwhelm her, control her!

Rhea reflexively resisted and resisted.

"I'm not his daughter!"

"It doesn't matter." Mycroft's voice suddenly became cold: "Whether you are not or not, I can make you be. This is the point."

She couldn't help sneering: "You think I really want the inheritance of Essex? You look down on me too much, Mycroft."

The man suddenly talked about another thing: "There are two reports on Jedl's death, one is an external statement, and the other is an internal report by S.H.I.E.L.D.

It is indeed clever to suppress the truth by using experiments out of control, but you cannot erase all the loopholes. "

Rhea was alert all of a sudden: "I don't understand what you are talking about."

"Even if you tried your best to leave a few corpses of mutants, there were too few in the case of the Sentinel riot. It is an anti-mutant weapon, and it is impossible to kill fewer mutants than ordinary people.

Will Werther, who has always made profits from biological research, also propose to suspend the anti-mutant plan?It's very humorous. "

He's really smart, and he can make inferences right away, even after flipping through a few reports.Rhea tensed up instantly.

"Ria."

She felt Mycroft's eyes fall on the little patch of skin on the back of her neck, stiff and taut.He repeated her name inexplicably: "Riya..."

"No matter what you want to do, what you are doing, I believe, you will need the Essex inheritance. Inherit it, you can inherit all the mutants they have captured, and you can inherit their power-as long as you can do it.

Come to think of it, you just destroyed a California division. "

Mycroft stated his terms.

He never underestimated her, never.When she came out alive from that gun, he knew everything had changed

.

Rhea's breathing became heavier: "...what on earth do you want me to do?"

How much trouble had Mycroft encountered to generously offer such favorable conditions?As far as Rhea knew, he was definitely not a friendly and generous person.

He probably still wants to know about Werther—

The next moment, Mycroft gave the answer: "The queen has been kidnapped, and I need your help."

what? !

If it wasn't for the recitation of the Bible at the funeral, the first verse of John 14 would have been heard so clearly by Rhea that she would have jumped out of her seat.

Rhea subconsciously wanted to look at Princess Diana's side, but was interrupted by Mycroft: "Now the news is strictly controlled, and only Prince Charles knows inside the royal family."

She was stunned: "This has something to do with Essex?"

"This has something to do with mutants."

Mycroft stated: "A group of antisocial mutants has kidnapped the Queen, demanding that we expose crimes in the biotech industry, led by Essex Corporation, and acknowledge the existence of mutants to society."

"Their leader is Eric Lanshere, codenamed 'Magneto'."

This familiar name made Rhea's eyelids twitch slightly, "...Why don't you go to Professor X? You should know him."

"I don't trust any mutants, but I want to try to trust you."

Mycroft slowed down his speech: "Rhea, since you have participated in this faction war, you must shoulder your responsibilities."
