Based on her observation, the Beast King only showed a hint of affection toward Sisi and Jojo, as if his love had been fully spent on the two of them.
Ruela was not as kind as she looked, but she was kind enough to know that the Beast King would be absolutely crushed if Jojo and Sisi died. And nobody could fill the gaping hole in his heart—not Ruela, and definitely not Leah.
Yes, Ruela knew that Leah had ambitions to climb into the Beast King's bed. After learning of her ambition, Ruela guessed that Leah would never be satisfied with her position as Mistress Sisi's personal attendant.
She closed her eyes for a moment before opening them again, then sneered at Leah.
"What makes you think you can be the queen, Leah?"
Leah's eyes widened as she didn't expect Ruela to see through her. "W-what?"
"Then I'll give you my answer—" Ruela took a deep breath and yelled at the top of her lungs, "HEEELLLPPP!!!"
