Chapter 88 - Invitation
Chapter 88: Invitation
The dignified second elder of the Fairlie family actually had to go to the main city of Spark City to wash clothes for the servants of the lord?
This matter was simply laughable.
Lance narrowed his eyes and seriously thought for a moment before continuing, “How about this, I don’t have many requests within a day… if the handyman profession is too unworthy of talent, then you should be the transporter.”
Transporter, to put it simply.
It was not even comparable to a handyman.
It was just a person who picked up feces.
Baker could simply pretend to faint on the spot. What was this?
How could he, a second elder, do such a thing!
The Fairlie family would never allow someone like him who tarnished the family’s reputation to appear. Anyone who challenged the family’s authority would be chased out by the family without exception.
“No… no, Lord Lance, please show mercy. I can’t do such a thing, Lord Lance!”
Baker knelt forward and wiped away his snot and tears. “I have an 80-year-old mother and a four-year-old child. I can’t, Lord Lance!”
Mack looked at Baker, who had a completely different attitude from before, and sneered. “That’s not what you said when you threatened miss Audrey for the level-10 potion. You kept threatening to call the city lord and the Fairlie family…”
Lance looked at Audrey with interest. The evilness that emanated from his rose-like red eyes was too alluring.
Even Audrey, who had seen countless beauties in her past life, was stunned.
He was too beautiful!
He looked at Audrey’s infatuated gaze and smiled. “I wonder how miss Audrey plans to deal with this person?”
Audrey was jolted awake. She watched as Lance quietly pulled everyone’s attention onto her.
This was a poisonous rose.
Damn.
I was careless.
However, Audrey was not flustered. Since Lance kicked the ball to her, she would naturally kick it back.
Audrey’s face instantly bloomed like a flower. “City Lord Lance, it’s not convenient for me to ask about this matter. After all, it’s not a big deal for a commoner to be humiliated, but it’s a big deal for the city lord’s reputation to be damaged.”
“How can a sparrow know a swan’s ambition? The sparrow wouldn’t dare to compare in size, city lord!”
Audrey’s words were sincere as she looked at Lance with anticipation.
This person was getting more and more interesting.
She wanted to push all the blame onto herself, but she just had to go against her wishes.
Lance pretended to be in a tough position. “Then this matter will be complicated to handle. Since I’m the city lord of Spark City, I naturally have no reason to let my own citizens be humiliated. It’s a small matter that I’m insulted, but it’s a big matter for miss Audrey.
“Since Miss Audrey has asked me to make the decision, then I selfishly believe that miss Audrey doesn’t want to forgive this… cousin of the Fairlie family.”
Audrey’s heart sank.
He was not using his real name but the Fairlie family.
This person was simply evil. Was it interesting to see that he had offended a member of a large family?
When the time came, the members of the Fairlie family would definitely not look for trouble with Spark City. They would look for Audrey instead.
Who would not be disgusted if they kept saying that Audrey did not forgive them?
They still had the nerve to say that Audrey was a subject under their protection. Why did they not see you protecting your subjects when Audrey was bullied a few years ago?
Lance looked at Audrey’s increasingly gloomy face with interest. Yet, he felt a wave of boredom in his heart.
Is she going to give in just because of this?
Audrey thought for a moment and decided to challenge the authority. “Since this commoner girl is so pitiful in Lord Lance’s words, let’s do as Lord Lance says.”
Audrey did not say anything. She had only given in because of the authority of the city lord. It had nothing to do with her!
Lance fell silent.
Shadowless Ghost Hand rarely saw his lord suffer at the hands of a little girl. He was speechless.
What was even more amazing was that his lord had no intention of getting angry.
It looks like I would have to take care of miss Audrey in the future…
Baker’s crying made Lance feel annoyed. He did not understand why he had agreed to let him go to Spark City.
It would be great if he could go to the Davis family.
Being disgusted would make two families feel disgusted.
After making up his mind that he did not want Audrey to have a good time… Lance smiled and said, “No matter what, this matter is a mistake that I didn’t want to discipline. But, this… cousin, since you’ve already sought a position in Spark City, you should take it as soon as possible.”
“If miss Audrey doesn’t mind, can you come to Spark City with me for a meal? It can also be considered as compensation for the grievances that he made Miss Audrey suffer.”
A short period of observation was not enough to see anything.
Why not bring the person under his nose to have a look?
The people in the Lisi commercial building were instantly stunned. The city lord actually invited Audrey to his residence as a guest?
Lance ignored the gazes of the people around him and said, “If miss Audrey doesn’t come, I’ll be despondent.”
Audrey had absolutely no reason to reject the invitation from the lord in public.
Moreover, the invitation was so sincere.
Audrey really did not know how she could make the rose beauty worry about her.
She was silent for a moment and could only nod. “Then, thank you for your hospitality, Lord Lance.”
Baker collapsed on the ground and accepted his fate.
Shadowless Ghost Hand sneered. “Let’s go, this cousin of the lord.”
