Chapter 687: Chapter 279: Can’t Be Happy at All_2
Having said that, she leaned back on the sofa with a face full of pride.
Neither Vicky nor Cris knew, she alone knew. That was the disparity in status, and from this, she could deduce that she was the ultimate winner.
Because of her excessive pride, Veronica broke her alliance with Cris, and Vicky seized the opportunity to join Cris against Veronica, pushing Veronica out of the limelight.
Smack!
A karate chop, and Vicky went down, collapsing very peacefully.
_(:3」∠)_
Afternoon tea time was over, and Veronica bid farewell to her complex and plastic-like sisters, spotting a sedan parked in front of the mansion.
Her keen eyes spotted her mother Hefei leaving work early, and the chillingly beautiful Saina.
"Hiss hiss hiss———"
Veronica took a sharp breath and alarm bells rang in her head. She knew the old witch had unsavory designs on her fiancé, and now here she was, having chased him all the way to Lundan.
And mother, head over heels, wouldn’t listen to a word and foolishly brought her home.
Hefei oh Hefei, how can you be so naive. What good does it do you to have your teacher become your son’s girlfriend?
Turns out there is a benefit—social promotion. Saina has to call Hefei "mom," allowing Hefei to redress past slights with zeal.
Veronica shuddered and quickly made her way to the mansion, managing to pull Hefei aside before the two entered the study.
"Mother, why did you bring her to our home?"
Veronica watched the study with wariness, "You don’t know, she harbors no good intentions towards Wayne, you can’t let her stay in the house, send her away quickly."
"I know, but it’s fine."
"How is that fine..."
Veronica opened her mouth wide and said dryly, "I know recent events at home have been a huge shock to you, but you can’t just give up on life!"
"What are you talking about, it’s nonsense."
Hefei responded, "The teacher needs to see Wayne for something very important, can you contact Wayne?"
"No!"
"Then I’ll contact that bastard; he definitely knows where Wayne is."
And sure enough, Austin did know.
Upon learning of Saina’s arrival in Lundan, now at Lando Manor, Austin immediately called the lab.
No answer, guessing the little trash can was out messing around, he dialed Wayne Detective Agency and got through to Secretary Mona, who relayed the message, and soon Wayne returned to Lando Manor.
Family banquet.
The dining room atmosphere was eerie, each person with their own thoughts, so quiet you could hear a pin drop, only the sound of knives and forks clinking against plates.
After dinner, Wayne took Saina to the Young Master’s villa, realizing a crowd was following them, he decided to borrow Austin’s study for a bit.
It couldn’t be called borrowing; it was his Lando Manor, temporarily managed by Austin, it should be considered returning to the rightful owner.
"I have something very important to discuss, are you sure they all can know about it?" Saina frowned, looking at the family.
Dark Knight Austin, Naturalism Church High Priest Hefei, protective Veronica, complicated Wayne, and the Magical Being Butler eavesdropping outside the door.
Saina has seen all kinds of situations, but such a peculiar family composition was a first.
Are they sure not to fight each other?
Or, living under one roof, are they totally clueless about each other’s identities?
"No problem, Teacher Saina, they all know about my heir of the Naturalist Knight identity," shrugged Wayne.
And there’s more than that—death/darkness/sun.
Austin played with an Ancient Silver Coin with an indifferent expression, glancing at Saina from the corner of his eyes. After many years, Hefei’s teacher was still so beautiful, ranking among the top in terms of looks and demeanor among all the women he’s seen.
But that wasn’t the point. The point was that Wayne once mentioned that Saina would do his bidding, and that he could walk her around the streets with a rope tied to her.
Moreover, Wayne had also informed Saina of the true identity of the Dark Knight of Lundan.
Wayne’s mouth, a deceiving ghost: ten sentences out of ten, you can never tell which are true or false. Austin was skeptical and wanted to take this opportunity to ascertain the real relationship between Wayne and Saina.
"All right, since you put it that way, I suppose I have no worries then."
Saina glanced at Austin once, black hair and eyes indeed bearing the manner of the Dark Knight. Hefei sure had good taste, picking out the Dark Knight from the crowd at first sight.
Silly student, rushing into marriage and childbirth in the heat of the moment, you probably have no idea just how dark your bedfellow is.
Saina shook her head slightly and said, "Wayne, an anomaly has occurred in the Icebound Continent. Mr. Mula, the Naturalist Knight, wishes to see you. He instructed you to bring your Giant Dragon mount and to rush to the Icebound Continent as quickly as possible."
After speaking, Saina noticed that the family’s expressions were normal and they did not show surprise at the keyword "Icebound Continent," seemingly already aware of the situation.
It must have been Wayne who told them.
She reassessed the family’s stature in Wayne’s heart—Mula had instructed that it was top secret, not to be leaked, and yet Wayne had told them everything.
"Giant Dragon mount?" x2
The mother-daughter duo with Dragon Blood were both stunned. Veronica, ever curious, asked, "Wayne, you’re also a Dragon Knight, does it have to do with the Naturalist Knight’s heritage? Why have I never seen your Giant Dragon before?"
"Uh, it’s right in this room."
"Where?"
Veronica looked at her own hand. She had ridden one, but she couldn’t transform into a Giant Dragon, hesitated for a moment, then passed;
Looked at Hefei, impossible, absolutely not, direct pass;
Looked at the study door, might have suspected before, but now knowing the previous generation’s messy relationships, decisively passed;
Looked at Saina sitting on the sofa with her mother for tea, scoffed at the old witch, and passed her off.
Wait a second, this one might actually be possible!
"Wayne is my knight," said Saina, nodding nonchalantly.
"Pfft———"
Hefei spat out a mouthful of tea, took a handkerchief from Austin, and wiped the tea from her mouth, her face looking like she’d seen a ghost, doubting if her teacher had lost her mind.
