Chapter 970 - Endless Prestige and Authority (1/2)

Wen Xinya stared at Avrora who was kneeling on the ground submissively. Before this, she would never believe that the haughty and arrogant Avrora would ever kneel before her.

G.o.d knows how terrible of a plight Avrora must be in now that she had lost the doc.u.ment. However, Wen Xinya did not sympathize with her at all because she was the one who planned everything from the start. If Avrora did not flirt with Si Yiyan back then and even made her use Lucifer’s matriarchal token as a stake, she would not have set Avrora up.

Avrora had brought it all upon herself.

Since she kept mum, Si Yiyan would obviously do the same too. He smirked and picked up a honeydew cube using a toothpick before feeding it to Wen Xinya. “Is it sweet?”

After eating the honeydew, Wen Xinya nodded and answered, “Yes!”

Si Yiyan laughed out loud.

Duke Moville watched as Si Yiyan behaved intimately with Wen Xinya, fearing that they would brush him off. “Miss Bella, you have no idea how much that doc.u.ment means to us. It represents our family’s power and authority. Avrora harmed our interests by stealing the stamp and using it for her own use. So, this doc.u.ment is very important to us. Miss Bella, please return it to us. We’re willing to pay the price.”

He felt that his words should weigh more than Avrora’s.

Despite knowing that the doc.u.ment was in Si Yiyan’s hands, he felt that it would be better to tackle Wen Xinya instead.

Wen Xinya glanced at Avrora for a moment before saying, “I see. Seems like Miss Avrora was really audacious.”

However, she still did not mention a thing about returning the doc.u.ment.

An icy cold gaze formed in Duke Moville’s eyes.

Avrora knelt on the ground, feeling stuck in a spot for she did not know if she should get up or not. Her body stiffened and she was overwhelmed with a mix of emotions.

Just as Duke Moville was about to say something, Wen Xinya fiddled with the Lucifer matriarchal token on her ear and suddenly turned at look at Si Yiyan. “Yan, is there a special significance behind this earring you gave me?”

Duke Moville could no longer say what he wanted to.

Si Yiyan pulled her into his arms and explained, “Duke Moville’s stamp represents his family’s power and prestige? This earring of yours represents your status as Lucifer’s lady in-charge. It symbolizes endless prestige and power.”

Wen Xinya’s eyes widened in shock and she said, “Does it mean that I’ll be bringing shame to Lucifer and become the laughing stock of the Russian aristocrats if I lose this earring? Does it mean that I’ll ruin Lucifer’s pride and reputation and cause you shame, too?”

She sounded rather agitated and her voice was shrilling and high-pitched.

Si Yiyan answered softly, “Exactly.”

Appearing fl.u.s.tered, Wen Xinya patted her chest and pretended to feel thankful. “Fortunately, I won against Miss Avrora during the horseback riding compet.i.tion. Otherwise, the results would be dire.”
