Chapter 602: Chapter 601: You Forced Me! _1

Yan Ling’s expression was impassive, revealing no hint of his emotions.

"Selena, it’s alright. It’s just a bit noisy, after all, it’s annoying to constantly listen to a barking dog."

The clarity of the young man’s voice, ambiguous in its gender, instantly chilled Selena’s rage.

Right, she couldn’t lose her sanity.

This was a public event, and she was the daughter of the Leo Family. How could she, who had been provoked to the point of having a throbbing headache, do something that might tarnish her status?

After thinking it through, Selena calmed down. However, flames of anger continued to burn in her eyes.

"Belka, today we are celebrating the retrieval of our clan badge, an event of great importance. I don’t want to quarrel with you under these circumstances. If you’re wise, you’d better keep quiet; otherwise, I wouldn’t mind having you thrown out," she warned.

With a single sentence, she asserted three parts sternness, seven parts threat, tightly grasping the air of authority that came with being a direct heir.

Belka’s face turned grim.

"Selena, I’m your cousin. He’s nothing more than a bed warmer, a pretty boy. Is it necessary for you to stand against me for his sake? Besides, only members of the Leo Family and the high-ranking aristocrats of Sicily city are permitted at this banquet. He is but a bed-warming manservant, unworthy to be here. His admittance alone is a great favor. And yet, you speak to me so harshly for his sake?"

From the start, Belka hadn’t spoken more than four sentences, and each one was devoted to belittling Yan Ling.

A bed-warmer, a manservant... He used such controversial words, making it hard for others not to make ill assumptions.

Suddenly, everyone looked at Yan Ling and Selena differently.

Could it be that the honorable Young Master Wesley was nothing more than Miss Selena’s bed-warming servant?

They found it hard to believe.

However, Belka was a member of the Leo Family and being an insider, he certainly knew more secrets...

And would Miss Selena ardently defend this man without regard for her own reputation if there wasn’t something special between them?

At this thought, everyone’s gazes became strange, and they began to whisper among themselves.

Hearing the seemingly plausible rumors, Belka became even more smug.

Yes, this was exactly as it should be. This pretty boy was meant to be shunned by everyone. By what right did he receive such preferential treatment?

Thinking this, Belka sneered, "Selena, I only give you some thin face because you are the direct heir of the Leo Family. But if you insist on keeping this pretty boy at our family’s banquet, then don’t blame me for not giving you face!"

He angrily directed his orders at the surrounding servants.

"Come, haven’t we got a lowly man to kick out of the banquet?"

"Ah, Miss..."

The servants who were called glanced at each other. They hesitated in their desire to speak, gazing at Selena, torn between the two sides. And for a moment, they had no idea whether they should follow orders.

Both individuals were their masters, but one commanded to throw the man out, and the other wished him to remain. What could they possibly do?

Seeing them stall, Belka’s anger flared even more.

"Impudence! Are you ignoring my orders now?"

Selena scoffed with frosty disdain on her face.

"They are servants of Leo Manor, only obeying the orders of the Family Head and the heir. What right do you have to command them?"

Her words left Belka in a rage.

"Fine, Selena, you’re asking for it!"
