Chapter 91: Making Things Difficult
The red-haired woman walked gracefully in front of Audrey. She raised Audrey’s chin with her fair forefinger and looked at her carefully. When she saw Audrey’s face clearly, her eyes immediately turned vicious.
She used her sharp fingernails to carefully stroke Audrey’s face, she smiled. “Oh, I’m afraid that this is another servant girl that the city lord took in while he was patrolling, right? Could you hurry up and teach her the rules? Otherwise, it will be your fault if you offend the city lord.”
The maid beside the red-haired woman understood what she meant. Two burly old ladies came up and were about to bring Audrey down. “We’ll go right away!”
Audrey sneered. “Aren’t you going to ask me what my identity is?”
The red-haired woman pretended to be surprised and covered her mouth. “Why? Do you want to become a phoenix with your dirty clothes? I’ve seen plenty of people like you. So hurry up and bring her down!”
The red-haired woman snorted coldly in her heart. Did she use her good looks to get into the lord’s bed?
No matter how good she was, she has a way to make Audrey unattractive!
“Let me go!”
Audrey had no trouble dealing with these people who did not have much combat aura.
She only gave them a gentle push, and they all fell to the ground and wailed in pain.
“You actually dare to resist?” The red-haired woman was furious and immediately summoned her battle technique. “I’d like to see how capable you are.”
“I originally didn’t want to fight with you in the city lord’s territory, but you’ve gone too far.” Audrey’s eyes turned cold. She didn’t even draw her sword. Instead, she casually chanted a magic spell and tied them up.
“How can you do this to me? I’m the lord’s woman!
“Let me tell you, as long as I’m unwilling, you can forget about getting any benefits from the lord!”
“Men, all of you, take this woman down for me!”
The red-haired woman’s image was destroyed. She shouted anxiously on the ground, “I’m a servant girl by the lord’s side. But, let me tell you if you still want a place to stay in Spark City, kneel and apologize obediently!”
Audrey ignored the red-haired woman’s curses. Instead, she walked to the girl who had just been taught a lesson and helped her up gently. “Do you have any other serious injuries on your body?”
The girl’s face swelled up so high that it was almost bleeding.
Audrey frowned. She wanted to stretch out her hand to cast a healing spell, but she felt it was not very convenient to do so in public.
She could only ask in a gentle voice, “What did you do? How could this woman be so ruthless?”
The maid lowered her head and timidly glanced at the red-haired woman who was still cursing. Her entire body trembled in fear.
She looked like she was only thirteen or fourteen years old. Nevertheless, Audrey still felt a little sorry for her.
Even if it was in the lord’s mansion, Audrey planned to take her away if the little girl did not mind.
Anyway, the mansion she rented was still short of people, so it was not like she could not afford an extra mouth.
Audrey patted the maid’s back in a comforting manner. “Don’t worry. I’ll talk to the lord. Just tell me what happened.”
“But the lord…” The maid said worriedly, “Miss, you don’t have to offend the lord for my sake.”
No matter how much she had, it was just a cheap life. She did not need such a noble young lady to help her.
Hearing this, Audrey only raised her eyebrows. “How do you know that I’m not a new maid?”
After all, the woman on the ground called her a cheap maid.
The maid sighed. “You’re very different from us. I’ve never seen such an arrogant temperament from a maid.”
“Miss, you should be careful not to meddle in other people’s business. If the lord finds out, he will blame you…”
With the words of the handmaiden, Audrey decided that she would do the lord a favor and take the handmaiden with her.
“What’s all the fuss about here?”
As Lance approached from a distance, he heard a series of sharp curses.
Before he saw Audrey’s figure, he thought that he had entered the hunting ground.
The red-haired woman struggled to get up from the ground when she saw Lance, but she could not because of the magic.
Audrey frowned and used the body of the maidservant as cover. Then, she chanted a spell and let go of the red-haired woman.
She almost jumped up and immediately began to cry. “City Lord, look at the new maidservant you brought! How can she bully me like this! I’ve been by your side for a long time.
“I only said a few words to her, and she… she beat me up like this. It’s really unfair.”
A crease appeared between Lance’s brows.
Audrey firmly protected the handmaiden behind her and was ready to attack.
Lance kicked the woman away from him and asked Shadowless Ghost Hand with disgust, “Who is this woman?”
The woman was immediately stunned.
Audrey had never expected things to turn out this way…
“My lord… you… you don’t remember me?”
Lance’s voice was filled with impatience. “Who exactly are you? I wanted to ask you the same question. When did you break into my backyard?”
