Chapter 1958: Daphne's Complete Defeat
It's noon.
According to the normal rules of life, it should be lunchtime.
However, in the capital of Dasai City, in the villa hall of the Dreadnought Guild, a manic script is being staged.
Kailan, this usually smiling and charming woman, is angrily holding my collar and shaking it back and forth.
And I, like a pet dog at the mercy of others, was shaken by her and dizzy.
As far as the eye can see, everything in the hall is moving back and forth rapidly.
I couldn't struggle anymore.
But Kailan still roared energetically, "Why did you watch Daphne leave, and didn't go over to ask where she went?" Are you what a fiancΓ© should do! Have you ever wondered if she ......"
Kellan's preaching, like a footwrap, stinks and grows, but it doesn't arouse the slightest bit of resistance in me.
In the face of my unrelenting attitude, Kailan finally became angry, and she opened her bloody mouth, showing two rows of neat, white teeth, aimed at my shoulder, that is, a fierce bite.
I gasped in pain and didn't say a word.
I must not tell Kellan about Daphne's possible approach to Mr. Mavre.
At least, I can't tell her until I get a definite result.
It's not that she is deliberately excluded, but because she is a maverick woman.
For some, being maverick is an advantage, but for Kellan, being a maverick is the most terrible disadvantage.
Because of her character, she is a little impulsive.
An impulsive character, combined with being a maverick, equals a reckless rampage.
Once Daphne's concerns were told to her, the result would probably be that Kellan would question Mr. Mavreaux, and of course, it would be possible that I would keep pestering me to contact the military and promote a relationship between the two sides as soon as possible.
But predictably, either outcome is something Daphne doesn't want to see.
In other words, as long as you tell Kailan about this, Kailan will definitely do bad things with good intentions.
In this case, it is better for me to be wronged, so I will suppress this matter for the time being.
Just as a furious Kellan was about to throw me out as a hammer ball, Daphne returned.
"You're finally back!" I silently wept in my heart and said, "If you come back later, I'm afraid that Kailan will treat me as sports equipment and finish a whole set of decathlon." β
"Sister Kailan......" Daphne muttered with a bewildered expression, shocked by the sight in front of her.
Kailan subconsciously turned her head, and at a glance saw Daphne standing in place with a blank expression, she was so excited that she let go of her hand without thinking about it, and rushed straight towards Daphne.
I was in mid-air, and after Kailan let go, I spun around and flew out.
I don't know how many furnishings I've broken along the way, but I just felt a lot of pain all over my body, and I hummed on the ground for a long time before I was finally able to get up.
After Daphne's explanation, Kailan finally realized that she had misunderstood me, and she scratched her head and smiled innocently.
"It's useless to play stupid," I mercilessly pointed out her inappropriate behavior: "If pretending to be stupid is useful, then what else do you need to do with the city protection team?" β
"Huh?" Daphne was nervous: "Xiao Yi, are you going to send Sister Kailan to the city guard brigade to ask for guilt?" β
"Don't!" Kailan also nervously said: "There is no alcohol in the prison, and I will definitely not be allowed to fiddle with the equipment enhancement machine, I will definitely die of depression!" β
"Hmph" I snorted coldly: "You know you're scared, right?" If you know you're scared, apologize quickly......"
Before I could finish speaking, a barrage of apologies came out of Kailan's mouth.
My brow shuddered, and I glanced at Kellan quizzically, then turned to Daphne.
Daphne was a little embarrassed and said, "This is an apology stunt that Sister Kailan practiced in the days when she borrowed money and didn't pay it back." β
I couldn't stop crying or laughing.
Saying that he would send Kellan to prison was just a threat.
In fact, with my status and prestige in Dasai City, as long as my fiancΓ©es do not seek power and usurp the throne, intend to subvert state power, and do not commit heinous and heinous crimes, the prison in Dasai City will not dare to detain them.
This is the privilege of those in high positions.
Kellan had gone to buy lunch, and only Daphne and I were left in the hall.
I asked Daphne what the results were?
Daphne told me with a look of discouragement that she had failed.
She didn't expect Mr. Mavro to be so resolute that he wouldn't even listen to his own daughter's words, but he just wanted to expand the scale of the material shop and make this material shop the first step to his career success.
Speaking of this, Daphne hesitated and continued: "In my father's blueprint, connecting with the military of Dasai City is only the first step, and Dasai City is only his starting point, he wants to build a business empire based on this, which can be compared to Master Dewey's business empire. β
I chuckled: "Not inferior to Master Dewey's business empire, Mr. Mavreau's ambition is really big." β
"I tried to persuade my father, but he wouldn't listen," Daphne said bitterly.
"It's all my fault, and if I buy him a shop on the edge of the street, maybe his ambition won't be so inflated." β
"You can't be blamed for this," Daphne said sadly, "You are also well-intentioned, and if you want to blame, you can only blame my father for not being able to curb his greed, but now...... What now? β
"Now I can only wait and see," I shook my head and said, "Since your father has indulged in the lust for power and money, it will be difficult to extricate himself, but this is fine, while his career has not yet gained a foothold, let him suffer a little loss, buy a lesson, maybe he can wake up." β
"Then the father, he...... It's going to be okay, right? Daphne worried.
"If he hadn't threatened the fundamental interests of Da Cyberjaya, his life would not have been in danger."
Seeing that Daphne still had a worried expression, I added: "Even if he is sentenced to a heavy sentence, don't be afraid, I think I still have the ability to save his life, but he may not be able to continue doing business for a long time, and besides, he has to change his name and surname, and he can't be so beautiful anymore." β
Daphne breathed a sigh of relief, leaned on my shoulder, and whispered, "As long as my father can save his life, anything is fine." β
That afternoon, Daphne didn't go to the shop, she was physically and mentally exhausted, and just after eating, she fell asleep deeply.
Carrying Daphne back to her room, accompanied by Kellan, I hurried to the palace.
It's been the second day since they returned to Dasai City, and the orc kings are probably in a hurry, and if they don't go to see each other, I'm afraid that my father-in-law will be angry and beat people.
Walking quickly to the palace, before entering the door, I saw two attendants trotting over.
