Chapter 2717 My Door Is Always Open
The mention of the topic filled Tigerus' eyes with disappointment due to his feelings for Ivasha. He couldn't marry
her because his status was lower than Xandros and Yuven would never let his daughter marry a subordinate.
The look on Tigerus' face elicited a devious smile from Xandros as he grumbled, “Mighty Tigerus, I'm sure you
haven't realized that I'll never be together with Ivasha. She doesn't like me, as she has been seduced by that
human, Jared. I'll be honest with you. I saw them hugging each other and being intimate today. I wanted to kill him
but didn't do so out of respect for the laws of the city. I know Ivasha has no feelings for me, and I have no intention
of marrying a woman who doesn't like me. Even then, how can she fall for a human? Jared isn't particularly
powerful, so what's the big deal about him? I'm also well aware of your interest in Ivasha. Logically speaking, you

than a mere servant in King Yuven's eyes.”
Xandros let out a sigh as if to express his indignance on Tigerus' behalf.
Tigerus fell silent upon listening to Xandros' words, but Xandros could tell from the look on Tigerus' face that his
stance was wavering.
Seizing upon the opportunity, Xandros continued, “Mighty Tigerus, once Princess Ivasha learns of your earlier
scuffle with Jared, she might even reprimand you for it. By then, King Yuven might not decide to stand up for you
but end up punishing you instead.”
No sooner had Xandros finished than a feminine voice could be heard screaming from outside.
“Tigerus, get your sorry ass out here at once!”
Tigerus' brows furrowed in response, for he could recognize the voice as Princess Ivasha's.
Left without a choice, Tigerus walked out with a frown.
The moment she saw Tigerus, Ivasha gave him a tongue lashing.
“Tigerus, how dare you lay a finger on Jared? Don't you know that he's a guest of Imperial Beast City? Moreover,
fighting isn't allowed within the city's compound. As the general of the royal guards, how could you openly break
the law? Let me warn you. I'm not going to forgive you the next time you harm Jared. I'll definitely get my father to
punish you accordingly!”
With that, Ivasha stormed off without even giving Tigerus the chance to explain.
Watching how Ivasha had come to Jared's defense intensified Tigerus' rage and hatred toward Jared.
He gritted his teeth and balled his hands into fists. “Jared, I'm going to tear you to shreds if that's the last thing I
do!”
“Mighty Tigerus, I was right, wasn't I? Our real enemy now is Jared. Only with him gone would Ivasha change her

“Prince Xandros, thank you for thinking highly of me. I'm really sorry that I can't become a sworn brother of yours.
As a general of the royal guards of Imperial Beast City, doing so will definitely earn me the wrath of King Yuven.”
Tigerus didn't allow his anger to cloud his judgment.
He did see Jared as his love rival and wanted to kill him, but he had no desire to betray Yuven at all.
“It was just a casual comment, Mighty Tigerus. You can forget what I said if you disagree. However, my door is
always open anytime you change your mind. I'll be staying in the city for a while still.”
After he finished, Xandros took his leave.
A short while after his departure, a city guard hurriedly arrived.
