Chapter 150: Talk about marriage (1)
Translator: 549690339
‘Collect, collect, everyone must collect! I’m clearly crying for a collection!’
This was also what Sturn was very conflicted about. He was very clear that it was impossible for them to be connected by marriage to the Buda family, especially now that the Buda family had fallen.
Under such circumstances, he didn’t want to be nice to the Buda family, but Grimm was a level eight expert. It wouldn’t do him any good to offend such an expert.
As an elder of the Versailles family, stern knew very well that the reason why the family had not dissolved the marriage agreement with the Buda family was because of their pride and the two level 8 powerhouses in the Buda family.
A rank 8 powerhouse would have no problem protecting a small family on the continent. However, the Buda family’s involvement in the incident back then was too big, so even a rank 8 powerhouse would not be able to protect them.
Stern struggled for a while, but in the end, he made up his mind. He would discuss this matter with the elders before making a decision. He turned to the gatekeeper and said, ” “Invite Mr. Green in. Remember to be polite.” The doorkeeper responded, turned around, and ran out.
Not long after, green followed the gatekeeper into the courtyard. Stern did not dare to be careless and quickly walked over.”Butler Green, long time no see. How have you been?”
Stern was the external Affairs elder of the Versailles family. He specialized in dealing with people, so he naturally knew green. The two of them had been in contact many times in the past.
&Quot; Oh, it’s elder stern. &Quot; green nodded. &Quot; it’s really rude of me to visit you this time. &Quot;
&Quot; you’re too kind, steward green, ” stern hurriedly said. &Quot; please come in. &Quot; After that, he invited Grimm into the house. After the two of them sat down, a servant naturally brought Keya over.
“I wonder what’s the matter with you this time, general manager green?” green asked, looking at Stehn.
Green looked at stern and smiled. &Quot; “It’s nothing much. It’s just that a few days ago, a few small insects accidentally flew into the black wasteland. I couldn’t hold back and smacked the insects to death. After smacking the insects to death, I remembered that our young master was engaged to a marriage. So, I came. Our young master’s meaning is that now that our Buda family is in trouble, he really can’t bear to let your young lady suffer with us, so he asked me to come and break off the marriage. What does the Versailles family think?”
Stern listened to Green’s words in a daze. Naturally, he understood what green meant by that. What little bug? what sudden memory? it was obvious that green was mocking them. However, green had also made it very clear that he was here to break off the engagement.
Break off the engagement! This was something that the Versailles family could not ask for more. However, with Grimm’s actions, it was as if the initiative was no longer in the hands of the Versailles family. This made stern feel extremely uncomfortable.
Stern’s expression could not help but sink. &Quot; “Is what Mr. Green said true? The Buda family really wants to break off the engagement?”
Green looked at stern sarcastically and said coldly, ” “I can’t not retreat. If I don’t retreat, there will always be bugs running into our house. I’m afraid I can’t fight them all.”
Stern looked at green in anger and snorted. &Quot; “This matter is of great importance and I have no right to make the decision. Please go and rest while I report this to the patriarch. Someone, bring general manager green to rest.”
Green wasn’t angry. He just smiled at stern and said, ” “There’s no need for elder stern to worry. I still have the money for the hotel. Goodbye.” After saying that, he turned around and walked out. Stern looked at Green’s back and slammed the table in anger.
Grimm naturally heard the voices behind him, but he only sneered and quickly left the Grand Duke’s mansion. He found an Inn outside and stayed there.
Finding a hotel was just a gimmick. After green entered the hotel room, he immediately entered the space. Zhao Hai, Merlin, and the rest were waiting in the space. When they saw him enter, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but smile.”Grandpa Grimm, that was really satisfying. Hahaha, I think that guy’s face turned green.”
&Quot; if they dare to do it, then they don’t have to be afraid of others talking about it. Hmph, what’s the big deal about it? the Versailles family is still relying on our food to save them. &Quot;
Zhao Hai smiled. &Quot; Grandpa Green, please don’t be angry. We just need to break off the engagement. There’s no need to offend them too much. No matter what, the Versailles family is the closest to the blackearth wilderness. If we push them too hard, they’ll send people to harass us every day. That’ll be enough to annoy us. &Quot;
Clint nodded and said, ” don’t worry, young master. I know what I’m doing. If we don’t show that we’re strong, those guys will think that we’re easy to bully. They can’t possibly send a level nine expert to deal with us. As long as it’s a level eight, we’re not afraid. We’ll kill as many as they come. &Quot;
Zhao Hai smiled and turned around. &Quot; I’ve asked ye Wuying and the others to monitor the Duke’s mansion. They will report to me if there is any movement. I believe nothing will happen. &Quot;
Merlin nodded and said, ” “Young master, even if you break off the engagement with the Versailles family, you should also arrange another marriage as soon as possible. After all, the inheritance of the Buda family is in your hands.”
Zhao Hai did not expect Merlin to bring this up. He scratched his head and said, ” “There’s no need to be anxious about this. Right now, our Buda family has just begun to show some signs of improvement. Moreover, the secret of the realm can not be known by others. This is not the time for an engagement.”
Merlin was about to say something when Grimm interrupted him, ” “Young master is right. Our Buda family has just started. It’s not the time to talk about this. Let’s talk about it in the future. I think it’s best to wait for the poison in young master’s horse to be cured before we discuss marriage. That way, when young master has children, he won’t need to detoxify anymore.”
When Merlin heard what he said, he could not help but glare at him. &Quot; “I didn’t ask young master to get married now. I just asked young master to arrange the marriage in advance in case we have no good girls in the future. She’s pretty and capable, and she’s also quite a good person.”
Zhao Hai did not expect Merlin to find his target. He could not help but smile even more bitterly. He knew that he could not interrupt at this time, and he could not interrupt. He could only sigh helplessly.”Grandma Merlin, I’m going to rest first. Call me when it’s time for dinner.” After saying that, he turned around and ran upstairs. He didn’t notice that meg was looking at him with a trace of infatuation and panic.
Meg liked ye hai, but she had never dared to show it. Now that she heard that Merlin was going to arrange a marriage for Zhao Hai, she could not help but panic. She was afraid that Zhao Hai would not want her after the engagement.
She had seen Laura a few times. To be honest, she felt inferior in front of Laura. Whether it was appearance, figure, or background, Laura was better than her. It could be said that Laura was like the moon in the sky, while she was just an insignificant star beside the moon. She had no advantage over Laura at all. She was really afraid that Zhao Hai would marry her immediately and not want her anymore.
Zhao Hai, on the other hand, did not think too much about it. Laura looked too much like Taylor. Therefore, Zhao Hai was under a lot of pressure in front of Laura. He had never thought that something might happen between them one day.
Seeing that Zhao Hai had run away, Merlin did not continue to talk about this matter. He looked at the time and ran to prepare lunch for Zhao Hai and the others.
After watching green leave, stern immediately went to the back of the Grand Duke’s residence. That was where the core of the Versailles family was located. Behind the third door, there was a tall building that was five stories high. The entire building was made of white stone. Above the main door of the building, there was a plaque with three large words ” elder’s house “.
That’s right, this was the true core of the Versailles family. Most of the elders of the Versailles family worked here, only a few of them worked elsewhere.
Two warriors were standing in front of the building of the Institute of elders. They looked to be about 50 years old. They were guarding the front of the Institute of elders, one on the left and the other on the right. If outsiders saw them, they would be greatly shocked as they were both Lv 7 powerhouses.
Stern walked to the front of the building and nodded at the two of them before entering. Stern would not neglect such a powerful person. His many years of experience in dealing with people made him very clear that even if it was an unremarkable person, he should not offend them easily.
After entering the elder’s building, stern immediately went up to the fifth floor. There were only three rooms on the fifth floor, and the people in these three rooms were the actual controllers of the Versailles family. They were the rooms of the Elders ‘Council’s first elder, second elder, and third elder.
Stern lightened his footsteps and walked to the door of the great elder’s room. He knocked lightly on the door twice, and there was the sound of footsteps. Then, the door opened, and a young girl was standing inside.
The girl looked to be in her 20s and was very pretty. She was wearing a magic robe, and when she saw stern standing outside the door, she couldn’t help but smile.”So it’s elder stern. Please come in and have a seat.”
Stern bowed to the girl and said, ” “Thank you, LAN Ji.” After saying that, she walked into the room quietly.
There was an office desk opposite the door, a chair behind the desk, a set of sofas and a small coffee table on the left, and a double-door on the right. The door was carved with patterns and looked very gorgeous.
Stern didn’t dare to sit down. He only said to Lanji, ” “Blue Princess, please inform the great elder that stern has an urgent matter to discuss with him.” Stern didn’t dare to treat Blue Princess with any disrespect. Not only was Blue Princess a 5th-tier water mage, but she was also the first elder’s assistant and favorite concubine. Her status in the family wasn’t any lower than some of the young ladies.
Blue Princess looked at Stern’s reserved expression and chuckled. &Quot; elder stern, please take a seat. I don’t know what urgent matter you have to discuss with the great elder, but he’s currently reviewing some documents. He just instructed me not to disturb him unless it’s urgent. &Quot;
After stern thanked Lanji, he walked to the sofa and sat down. He said to Lanji, &Quot; the Buda family’s general manager green just came. The person we sent to the Black Earth wilderness to inquire about news last time probably won’t be coming back. He came this time to break off the engagement. I don’t dare to make a decision on this matter, so I ask the great elder to make a decision. &Quot;
