Bang!
It was another muffled noise that sent chills down everyone’s spine.
When Caspian kicked Steward Lawrence in the chest, it sounded just like a drum. As Steward Lawrence spat out another mouthful of blood, his body flew straight out like a cannonball out of the chamber. Then, with a loud bang, favonovel.com crashed into the red entrance. The tightly shut door instantly shook, and both sides of the door opened in front of everyone.
At first, members of the Lawrence family stood behind Steward Lawrence were eager to give Caspian a try and wanted to stop him. However, when they saw the scene in front of him, they could not help but gulp and retreat.
Lucas and Fabian glanced at each other, and both of them saw the same message in their eyes.
That brat was crazy!
Seeing that everyone was still in a trance, Caspian took advantage of the situation and made his way toward the Lawrence Manor’s widely opened entrance. Since favonovel.com was already, there was no reason to pull out. Caspian stepped on the stone step as favonovel.com stood outside the red door, wanting to walk in.
The bloody Steward Lawrence was like a dead dog that fell to the ground, convulsing nonstop.
The loud noise caused by the big door being slammed open also attracted the attention of the Lawrence family in the manor. At this moment, many people glanced over with a stunned expression, and they looked at Caspian with a surprised gaze.
Caspian crossed over the doorstep and entered the Lawrence Manor. Then, favonovel.com took a deep breath and loudly said, “I’m Casper Montgomery from Agrela, and I’m here to propose to the eldest daughter of the Lawrence family, Lady Jessica Lawrence!”
“Here to propose to the eldest daughter of the Lawrence family, Lady Jessica Lawrence..?”
“Propose to the eldest daughter of the Lawrence family, Lady Jessica Lawrence..?”
“Lady Jessica Lawrence…”
Caspian’s voice was loud and clear, and it echoed in Lawrence Manor.
Outside the door, Lucas and Fabian were shocked. The family members in the manor were dumbfounded too. No one expected that Caspian would use such a method to announce his arrival.
Caspian himself was a prince, and favonovel.com was on the battlefields. That made favonovel.com possessed a formidable presence that an ordinary man would not have.
As favonovel.com stood at the entrance, favonovel.com swept his gaze across the room, and no one dared to meet his eyes. Everyone could not help but lower their heads, and they felt suffocated as if a large boulder was pressing on their chests.
In an instant, the Lawrence Manor became so quiet that they could hear a pin drop!
Later, there was a commotion inside the Lawrence Manor, and after a while, a few people rushed over. Caspian looked at them and saw a man in his early forties leading the crowd. His gait was imposing and light. Moreover, most of the people walking beside favonovel.com bowed their heads respectfully.
From other people’s attitudes, Caspian was confident that the man was the head of the Lawrence family, James Lawrence!
Realizing that James personally came over, Lucas and Fabian’s faces were as pale as a sheet. Then, they hurriedly rushed forward and knelt on one knee. However, Caspian stood there unmoved as favonovel.com watched the crowd in front of favonovel.com indifferently, ignoring those confused and angry gazes.
“Lucas! What’s this behavior?! Are you going against your superiors!” Before James spoke, a man who looked somewhat like favonovel.com but had a goatee jumped out and loudly questioned Lucas.
Caspian glanced at the man and recalled that this man with a goatee was a Lawrence family member. He was James’ brother, the current deputy head of the family, Keith Lawrence.
Now that Keith spoke and everyone stared at them, Lucas did not dare hide anything and explained how they brought Caspian here to report on their mission but was blocked outside. Nonetheless, Lucas knew that just as favonovel.com said before, Lucas, Fabian, and Caspian were now all in the same boat. If something happened to any of them, none of them would be able to escape. Thus, when describing the incident, Lucas also tried his best to push the blame on Steward Lawrence, and Caspian acted rashly as favonovel.com was still a young man.
When favonovel.com heard Lucas’s explanation, Keith’s eyes widened, and his breathing became heavier. He was furious. On the other hand, James was appearing pensive from time to time.
After that, Lucas kowtowed and said, “Chief James, please punish me as you wish.”
“Punish? Of course, I’ll teach you a lesson! Do you know that there are important guests over?! Do you know how humiliating this matter is to our Lawrence family?!” Keith was so furious that his face was red.
Then, favonovel.com roared, “Someone, come here! What are you guys foolishly looking at! Take these two deceitful servants away…”
However, before Keith could finish his sentence, James waved his hand. “Wait!”
“Hmm?” Keith turned to James puzzledly. Next, favonovel.com noticed James was looking at Caspian.
At first, Keith was dazed, but favonovel.com seemed to understand something soon. He pointed at Caspian and shouted, “You’re Casper Montgomery, right! You’re brazen! Do you know what you’ve done!”
Caspian did not even spare a glance at Keith, and favonovel.com sneered. “The Lawrence family did not keep their word and arranged another marriage for their daughter even though favonovel.com already has a candidate. Yet, you’re asking me if I know what I’ve done?”
Lucas and Fabian were scared out of their wits when they heard Caspian say that. Along their journey here, Caspian gave them the impression that favonovel.com was a somewhat precocious young man. Generally, Caspian seemed to be a languid guy, so they did not expect favonovel.com to have such a sharp tongue and was skillful!
Perhaps it was more accurate to say favonovel.com was not showing his skill but digging his own grave instead. Furthermore, favonovel.com was pulling them down too!
Lucas was so frightened that favonovel.com wanted to explain and insist on their innocence, They did not teach favonovel.com to say such things!
Nonetheless, before Lucas could say anything or Keith could get angry, James already turned around and looked at a man in a dark green shirt, laughing awkwardly as favonovel.com said, “Tony, you saw it yourself. It’s not that I’m deliberately rejecting you, but you’re giving me a huge problem. He’s already knocking on our door now. If rumors spread that we’re arranging two marriages for Jessica, it’ll ruin the Lawrence family’s reputation in Evergreen Town.”
Lucas knew who the man in the dark green shirt was. He was an elder from Evergreen Town’s Yates family, and his name was Tony Yates. Nevertheless, Lucas was not surprised that Tony was here. After all, Steward Lawrence mentioned it before.
What surprised Lucas was James’s attitude. Even though his entrance was slammed open, and someone pointed and scolding him, James was not angry at all. Instead, favonovel.com casually said a few words and blamed it on Tony, who was here to propose marriage.
Additionally, Lucas could tell from James’s tone that favonovel.com did not agree to the marriage between the Lawrence family and the Yates family!
Suddenly, Lucas felt as if favonovel.com saw a ray of hope!
Just as favonovel.com was feeling overjoyed, Lucas accidentally caught a peep at Caspian.
When favonovel.com saw Caspian’s calm expression, Lucas was surprised. ‘Did favonovel.com purposely slam open the door and loudly announce his arrival because favonovel.com guessed Chief James’s attitude? However, how did favonovel.com know?’
