Angus's voice slowly became muffled and intermittent, and when he finished telling his own story, his eyes began to close slowly.

"Do you regret it?" The girl asked.

"I regret not protecting Elaine."

"Want revenge?"

"I've thought about it, but unfortunately I'm no longer able to do it, and revenge can only get the greatest comfort by doing it yourself. She would be disappointed to impose this dark emotion on others. ”

"She?"

"Well, Elaine's mother, my eternal love. She didn't want me to be the kind of person who had a dark heart, because she was the kind of person who wouldn't hurt others even if she was hurt. ”

"Don't you become a wicked person because others are evil to you?"

"Yes, that's what I was obsessed with back then, her gentle, kind and strong character."

"Others treat me badly, and they use indiscriminate means. I will take revenge on him, I will punish him, but I will not use the same methods as him, which is my pride as a human being. ”

"And this is also the best quality I learned from Elaine's mother, I wanted Elaine to learn the same, but unfortunately I can't do it anymore...."

Angus's voice grew low, and finally fell silent and quiet.

Lorain Hill stood up, looked at the man in eternal sleep, felt it for a long time, and then whispered.

"I wish you a wonderful dream."

-----------------------

Verga Business Alliance, near Lake Kempe.

Several luxurious carriages lined the road, flanked by a group of horsemen, dressed in steel armor, armed with long swords and shields, and with crossbows hanging from their backs, about a hundred people. The rider's shield and the side of the carriage are marked with lacquered night flowers, indicating their affiliation to the Kalites Chamber of Commerce.

Lorraine Hill sat in an elaborately decorated carriage and looked out the window at the calm and beautiful lake in the distance, with some birds flying in the air.

"Where is this?" She asked.

"This is Lake Kempei, I should be able to spend the night in Kempeicheng tonight, where the territory of the Yagtirin Chamber of Commerce will be very safe." The head maid next to him replied.

"Yagtirin?"

"Well, the Yagtirin Chamber of Commerce is mainly engaged in fishery, olives, mussels, pearls, jewelry, furniture. We are business allies with the Karitas Chamber of Commerce and have worked on many projects, so we can still be trusted. ”

"Is that so..."

Lorain Hill looked out the window, and as the carriage moved forward, a large green grove appeared in front of him, closely packed with trees, and the light green branches and leaves glowed in the sun.

The road is lined with neat olive groves, as far as the eye can see, and the fragrance of the trees wafts through the air with the summer breeze.

"These are the olive trees of the Yagtirin family, which they mainly use to extract oil, and occasionally they cut down some old trees to make furniture or sell wood to us for shipbuilding." The head maid, Chelsea, saw that Lorain Hill was very interested in these olives, and explained.

"It's very popular, does our chamber of commerce have an industry in this area?"

"Our Karitas Chamber of Commerce is mainly engaged in timber, citrus, cotton spinning, spices, and shipbuilding."

After entering the territory of the Verga Business Alliance, the old butler Seres quickly contacted the branch near Karitas, and then summoned the armed forces of the branch in nearby cities and towns, including more than 100 heavily armed riders, more than 40 other shield-wielding crossbowmen, and some auxiliary personnel totaling about 160 people.

Under such layers of protection, the old butler relieved himself and got back on the road.

These days, the girl is in the carriage, listening to Chelsea and Seres explain the specific situation of the Chamber of Commerce, while thinking about how to deal with the follow-up problems after arriving at Hopland.

As long as she arrives in Hopland and officially inherits the Karites Chamber of Commerce, with the protection and assistance of the Chamber of Commerce's forces, many problems will become easier.

But the question is whether there will be any more attacks along the way, if the enemy is determined to stop until all the heirs of the Karitas Chamber of Commerce die.

Loren Hill tried to consult the system, if she uses extraordinary power to protect herself now, it is also a violation, because she occupies the status of Angus's daughter, as long as this identity is alive, she can bring wealth, so using extraordinary power to protect herself is also considered to be profitable. Unless she abandons this identity and starts over.

This means that if Loren Hill is faced with a dead end and she has to intervene, the mission will fail, and the wealth that Angus has given will no longer be recognized by the system. She had to think of another way to get the job done.

But this does not mean that this Loland Hill inherits Angus's property and completes the task, because the task is earned, not owned, that is to say, Loland Hill has to use the principal given by Angus to earn 100,000 gold coins to be qualified. But once she doesn't manage well halfway, she may lose more money, but she will be farther away from the goal of completing the task.

According to Angus's will and what she has learned recently, all the properties accumulated by Angus over the past ten years add up to about 280,000 gold coins, many of which are real estate, and the real liquid funds are actually only 2-30,000 gold coins, which cannot be used at will, and need to be used to deal with many emergencies.

"Miss, there's Kempe City ahead." Ahead, came the voice of the old butler Serres.

"Okay."

After some negotiation with the people ahead, the guards at the gate gave way and let the large group enter the city.

"Miss Lacey, after entering the city this time, according to the previous etiquette and tradition, we are going to visit the house of Lower Agetilin."

"Did Angus have a lot of dealings with them before?"

"The lord and the current head of the Yagtirin family are very good friends, they once went to the South China Sea Islands to do business together, and took a big risk."

"Okay, I see, after going into the city and resting for a while, we'll pay a visit to Yagtirin's house."

As the convoy of the Karitas Chamber of Commerce slowly entered the city, several guards in green burqas also hurried to the City Lord's Mansion to report the situation.

Inside the Lord's Palace, a white flag with a green pattern of olives and shells is hung in the hall, representing the Yagtirin family.

A middle-aged man with glasses was sitting at his desk writing a letter when there was a knock on the door.

"Enter."

"Lord Jerink, the convoy of the Karitas Chamber of Commerce has entered the city today."

"Well, I know, Angus should come over later, let's prepare a meal."

The middle-aged man was still busy writing and didn't pay much attention to it, he and Angus were old friends, and they met often, so they didn't have to be very formal.

"But my lord, this time it is not Lord Angus who has come, but his daughter Lacey. And Master Angus was attacked on the way back and has died. The adjutant said with some trepidation.

"What!" The pen in the middle-aged man's hand was crooked, and he drew a blot of ink, and then stood up in surprise.

"Angus is dead?"

"Yes, sir." The adjutant repeated again.

"Only his daughter survived?"

"That's what it says."

The middle-aged man began to walk back and forth in the room, and then ordered the adjutant.

"Tonight's feast is a little bigger, and then call Ricky over, she should be about the same age as Angus's daughter, and easier to get along with. Then he went to invite Angus's daughter to his house. ”

"Yes, sir." Then the adjutant exited the room.

Jaylink whispered as he looked out the window at the sky that was approaching dusk.

"Are you just leaving, Angus... So suddenly. ”
