Chapter 495
The main thing is, my Master is now traveling all over the world. Even if I take
udette out of here right now, I may not be able to find him for some time!
This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.
All I can do is leave the Lenoir residence and then look for his whereabouts
before anything else! thought Emmanuel.
Only after the man had left did Laura help Adolph up. As they walked, she
said with admiration written all over her face, “General, you’re truly the best
military general of your generation in Tocvale. You’re so smart!”
Adolph frowned and asked with feigned puzzlement, “How am I smart?”
Laura replied with a flirty giggle, “The three most powerful families in
Yeringham right now are the Quillens, the Newmans, and the Lenoirs. We, the
Lenoirs, are rted to both the Quillens and the Newmans by marriage. We
all could’ve ruled this city together, but the Quillens seem to be out of step
with us. What’s more, they seem to be seeking hegemony, don’t they?”
He listened to her in silence without giving a response.
Laura continued, “Your sister Felicity married into the Quillen family, but not
only did she not get the standing she deserved after that, she even had to
live under constant bullying. And now, the Quillen family’s power has been
passed down to her daughter, while she is made into a mere figurehead
despite being her mother. Obviously, the Quillens never give a damn to us,
the Lenoirs, and are continuously watching out for us.”
She added, “General, you retired from the army and went into business with
the intention of making the Lenoirs a big business family in Yeringham, but
the Quillens wouldn’t give you the opportunity. So, all you can do is team up
with the Newmans to overthrow the Quillens and divide their fortune between
the two families. Am I right about that?”
At hearing this, Adolph looked at this gorgeous woman next to him with a
meaningful smile on his lips.
Knowing that she was absolutely spot on, Laura smugly continued, “What
happened to udette gives you a justifiable excuse to team up with the
Newmans against the Quillens. In reality, you and the Newmans have
nned these business moves beforehand. Who in the Newman family did
you discuss this with in advance? And I was actually kept in the dark about
this! Hmph!”
Atst, Adolph gently held up her pointed chin. His smile vanished. “My
woman can be smart, but she had better not get too smart! Otherwise, I may
not like it. You understand?”
A slight shudder ran through Laura’s body. The next instant, she smiled again.
“General, you have both my body and my heart. Don’t be on your guard
against me, okay? Or I’ll be heartbroken!” she said before pressing her red lips
to Adolph’s.
Adolph was unmoved at first, but he then wrapped his arms around her
round waist nheless. Not even an ascetic monk can resist such a
stunner! he thought.
Meanwhile, Emmanuel returned to Yociam Residence with a huge load on his
mind.
The moment he arrived downstairs, though, the security guard stopped him,
saying, “Mr. Lowe, you’ve got visitors!”
“Oh?“, Only then did Emmanuel snap out of his thoughts about udette. He
wondered who the visitors were.
The next moment, a man and a woman came before Emmanuel after being
notified by the security guard. The woman was none other than Sarah,
whereas the man was someone Emmanuel was only meeting for the first
time/He was the interior decoration expert whom Sarah introduced to him.
“Manuel!” Sarah called out sweetly as soon as she saw Emmanuel; she then
walked up to him with all smiles.
Seeing her attitude toward Emmanuel, the security guard secretly envied
him and his luck with women. He’s married to such a beautiful wife who has
such a sweet and gentle sister? Are they gonna sleep in the same bed
tonight?
