Chapter 242: He Didn't Tell the Truth
That's your daughter, dear, you bully her so much, and you still have a smile?" Olivia pushed her husband with some tears and laughter.
Silas, who had laughed enough, turned over and lay on his back on the bed, sighed and said, "How could I bully her?" If it weren't for her little maid suddenly reminding her to check these two waiters, I would have dealt with those two after a period of observation. I really didn't want Luna to touch these things so early. ”
"And what about the result?" Olivia glared at Silas.
"The results weren't bad.
In front of all the little attendants, Luna said that the two were deliberately sent to the royal court by someone with a heart, and then let the guards tie them up and throw them into the dungeon. ”
Silas said, the corners of his mouth twitching, although he didn't think it was wrong for his daughter to do this, but he always felt that Luna was deliberately doing it to show his own father.
"And what about the steward next to my father?" She was more worried about the steward next to the old Marquis Latour than the fact that her range of activities was basically out of the royal city, and there was Silas to protect Luna at all times.
"The person behind that guy is hiding deeply! It's really hard to move him for a while, but if you want to come to Luna's work today, it will soon get out, and he should also make some moves! Don't worry, father-in-law, I've already reminded you. It's going to be fine. ”
Silas comforted Olivia as he took her arms around her and gently stroked her back.
"I can't figure out who this is, even the people around my father can be bribed. Olivia sighed, if Silas hadn't moved to ask the old Marquis Latour to help Luna train a few reliable attendants, this problematic steward would not have been discovered to this day.
"yes......" Silas sighed.
"Click!"
Suddenly there was a crunch of glass being hit by something, and Silas got up, walked to the window, and looked out, and saw the McCann Knight hanging upside down in the tree in the distance.
"I'll go to the study, you can sleep first!" Silas pointed in the direction of the study to McCann, then grabbed a coat and put it on, and left the bedroom.
In the study.
"What did you find?" Silas asked, looking at McCann.
"Although Langdon Manor has been funding the nursing home all these years, it has been doing population trading with the people of the nursing home behind the scenes, and the manor that His Highness fancies, because of its proximity to Langdon Manor, and the hunting grounds that almost no one will set foot on weekdays as a cover, are regarded as a stronghold, and after the failure to buy the manor from the Monroe Knights, there was a later thing.
According to the investigation of his subordinates, the two subsequent owners of the manor had frequent accidents after moving in, and they were afraid that they were inseparable from the current owner of Langdon Manor. ”
The McCann Knight reported the results of his trip one by one.
"Where's the evidence?" Silas frowned.
"Those people have very clean hands and feet, and there is basically no way to verify what they have done, and the direct evidence is only in the case of Langdon Manor, please forgive the incompetence of the king's subordinates. McCann bent down.
"Anything else?" Silas asked, looking at McCann.
"The rest is nothing, but yesterday the owner of Langdon Manor suddenly invited someone to go to His Royal Highness's maid Liya's house to marry Liya for his son, but Liya's family refused with words. ”
"Okay, I see, you've worked hard these days, let's go back and rest first!" said Silas as walked over and patted McCann on the shoulder.
When McCann turned into a beast and flew out of the window again, Howard suddenly punched in the door of the study lounge and walked out.
Looking at Howard, who was standing at the door of the lounge, dressed in pajamas, the corners of Silas's mouth twitched slightly, "Didn't I tell you to go back to rest? Why are you still here?"
"McCann didn't tell you the truth, he still betrayed your trust. Howard didn't answer, just looked at Silas standing in front of the window and said coldly.
"He's not telling the truth. Silas sighed, stroking his hand on the lattice, but he couldn't help but tighten.
But he didn't mention the convoy that had left Langdon Manor two days earlier. Howard insisted.
"I know. Silas muttered in a low voice.
"You can't let him go any longer, the Beth family is a secret guard family, and there are too many places to contact the royal family, and if you continue to let it go like this, it will not only be dangerous to you, but also to the queen and the three highnesses. Howard couldn't help but take a step forward.
"I said it, I know!" Silas clenched his fists, turned his head sharply, looked at Howard with a fierce look, and snorted.
As the low voice fell, Howard stopped speaking, and the entire study fell into a kind of panicked silence for a while.
Long......
"I'm sorry, Neil, I lost my temper......" Silas slowly released his clenched fists and bent down to pick up the coat that had fallen to the ground.
"No, I know what McCann means to you, I shouldn't ......" Howard hung his head and sighed.
"I don't blame you!" Silas walked into Howard, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, smiled self-deprecatingly, walked to the side of the small table, poured two glasses of wine, handed one of them to Howard, raised his glass to him, and said abruptly, "The people around me back then are now you and Kirton." Isn't it worth celebrating?"
"Wang ......" Howard took the wine glass and said with difficulty, wanting to say something, but he didn't know where to start.
"Don't say anything, have a drink with me. Silas waved his hand, brought the glass close to Howard's, bumped it, and then drank the amber liquor in the glass.
Seeing this, Howard also raised his wine glass, and with Silas's movements, he drained the wine in the glass.
The two males, standing in front of the window, without saying a word, drank glass after glass, until all the bottles of wine were drunk by the two of them, and then Silas spoke in a slightly hoarse voice:
"You have people check the matter of the nursing home, and in addition, you personally visit the Orr family tonight and let them keep an eye on the Bess family. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty. ”
Howard put down the wine glass in his hand and was about to change clothes in the lounge, when he suddenly heard Silas ask,
"You've been in touch with Errick all along, haven't you?"
"You?" Howard paused, looking at Silas in surprise.
The Beth family's secret guard who was loyal to Silas back then was actually not only McCann, but also Eric, and it was Eric who was later sent to find Sophia, but Sophia who was recovered finally died tragically, and Erik, who thought he had been entrusted by Silas, also left quietly.
After Eric left, rumors spread that he had absconded due to dereliction of duty, which also made Eric completely lose hope of inheriting the Beth family.
But over the years, only Howard knows that the runaway Eric is not actually as rumored to be, in fact, Eric, like Silas, has never given up investigating the whereabouts of the Lion Inheritance over the years.
