Chapter 204 (2/2)
They want to cry.
You say you are such a powerful apocalypse, or the Duke, what are you angry with our little guard?
The coach drove straight in and went straight to the cardier's house. The sound of horses' hoofs could be heard from a distance.
”Here they are, father.”
Charles, who hated Donne, said in a deep voice, ”I didn't expect that obery and Adrian would really stand out for him.”
Frank cadier put down his tea cup and a little hoarse voice sounded in the room.
”Go and greet our guests.”
”Are they guests?”
Charles sneered, ”an arrogant boy thinks he can blackmail by relying on obery and Adrian?”
”Stop talking nonsense. Go and set an example for your brother.”
After a pause, Frank continued, ”don't do anything unnecessary. O'Berry has a bad temper. Be careful not to annoy him.”
”Damn...”
Marquis Charles said gnashing his teeth: ”if our blood could awaken our talent, we wouldn't be so careful in front of them...”
”Be patient... Soon... Soon everything will be different...”
Frank leaned back against his seat and his face sank into the smoke of incense again.
”Welcome... I mean, I really don't want to say this if it's not the necessary etiquette for being an aristocrat. Please don't mind, two dukes. I mean this stupid fool from a remote place who is vulgar and shameless and has no aristocratic education.”
Charles stood on the stairs and looked down at the three of Donne below. He showed his contempt for Donne mercilessly. His hatred made people think it was a big hatred.
”Eh? Isn't this Marquis Charles who left the house of Lords in a mellow manner? Your wound has healed?”
Donne's smiling, unassuming and elegant attitude made the most picky noble etiquette officials find no fault.
”You bastard - you didn't do it!”
Charles flew into a rage. What happened in the house of lords that day was the biggest disgrace in his life. He had never lost such a big man!
Don looked innocent. ”What are you talking about? I was standing on the interrogation table that day.”
”And pretend to be innocent.”
Charles sneered: ”at the dinner party of foyer's house, you personally admitted that you are a wild mage! A mage wants to make a person fall suddenly, isn't there too many means? Dare you not admit it?”
”Indeed.”
Donne nodded: ”but the mage has more means to kill silently. Now that you know I'm a mage, you still come to annoy me... Is there something wrong with your brain?”
”Arrogance! Can I think you're threatening me?”
Charles had a sudden thought, but he still said, ”although the magician's means are mysterious, it's not impossible to deal with it, not to mention that you are an imperial aristocrat now. Do you want to openly violate the laws of the Empire?”
”Whatever you say, I didn't admit anything.”
Donne let go, and the playful smile on his face made Charles more nervous.
”All right!”
O'brie said impatiently, ”where's Frank? What we want to see is him. You're not the patriarch now. Get out and play!”
Oberli's temper is known to be very bad, and his usual behavior and vulgar words make it difficult to associate him with a grand duke, but in fact, no one dares to question oberli's vulgarity, but they are praising his true temperament.
What's this about?
It's not because his fist is hard enough and his backstage is hard enough.
Originally, he was a guy who couldn't beat. In addition, he married the former Princess and was the brother-in-law of his majesty victor. Who dares to say that he was not such a hard backstage?
So although Charles dared to be angry with Donne, he dared not face obery.
”My father has prepared tea and cakes in the study, waiting to meet the Duke.”
Charles bowed slightly: ”this way, two dukes.”
Among the nobles, you can't rush in without the invitation of the master, so Charles deliberately excluded Donne and wanted to disgust Donne, but... He underestimated the thickness of Donne's face.
Seeing o'brie and Adrian upstairs, Donne naturally followed.
It's so cheeky... It's really a hick from a small place!
Charles secretly murmured at Donne, glanced at him expressionless, but said nothing.
Taking them outside Frank's study, Charles knocked on the door first: ”father, the guests are coming.”
”Come in.”
”Please come in.”
Charles opened the door, and obery and Adrian went straight in. As soon as Don wanted to go in, Charles stopped him.
”Wait a minute! Who allowed you in?”
Marquis Charles said faintly, ”you are a little baron. What qualifications do you have to see my father?”
”What qualifications? I'm here to charge!”
Don en skimmed his mouth and took out the bill again: ”is this IOU enough?”
Damn it, it's this IOU again.
Charles felt a twinge of pain when he saw the IOU.
Why does this fool think we will admit it so naively!?
Is he stupid?
