The Prince Who Was Raised in Hell

Chapter 21

“What?” Lucas and Fabian exclaimed when they heard the steward.

There was horror in their eyes, and they felt their blood freeze as their hands and feet turned cold.

They were responsible for fetching Nana over.

They were the only ones who knew about Nana’s death.

Hence, who was the master who suddenly popped out and entered the Lawrence Manor before they did?

They were afraid their plans were leaked, and someone already made the first move before them!

However, the Lawrence family’s steward soon continued, “The person proposing marriage to the head of the family is Evergreen Town’s Yates family’s little genius, Harold Yates.

Harold’s a match made in heaven for our Lady Jessica.

Do you think the b*stard that you found is a match for her?”

Steward Lawrence sneered at them repeatedly as he swept his scornful and taunting gaze across them.

Even though he was only a first-stage True Martial Realm, he was from the direct lineage of the Lawrence family and a true descendant of the Lawrence family.

Hence, he could naturally arrogantly order around and unscrupulously blame the two servants, Lucas and Fabian, as they had different surnames.

Just because of that, Lucas could only hold back the anger in his heart as he asked, “Steward Lawrence, we’re only acting on the Old Master’s order, and now we’re reporting the completion of our

mission.

Aren’t you going to let us in?”

“Wow! Are you using the Old Master to bully me? Do I need you to educate me on what the Old Master wants?” The mocking smile on Steward Lawrence’s face deepened.

Lucas and Fabian felt their scalps tingled, and they did not dare to say anything more.

Then, Steward Lawrence arrogantly informed them, “Well, I might as well let you know that the Old Master had an enlightenment half a month ago, and he retreated to break through the peak of the second stage of the Pulse Control Realm.

However, he has yet to come out.

Hence, all affairs regarding the clan will be handled jointly by the head of the family and the elders.”

“The Old Master is breaking through the peak second-stage of the Pulse Control Realm?” When they heard the news, Lucas and Fabian were excited.

Stefan, who stood on the side, was shocked.

On their journey here, Lucas explained to Fiona that the Pulse Control Realm had three stages, and each stage had an entry, mid and peak levels.

Getting up another level would be extremely hard for an ordinary cultivator as it required perseverance, wisdom, and luck.

Even though the Lawrence family was one of the prominent families in Evergreen Town.

There were only five Pulse Control Realm cultivators among the 3000 family members, who were the Old Master, George Lawrence, the head of the family, James Lawrence, and three elders.

Among them, George was at the highest realm, which was the second stage of the Pulse Control Realm.

If he successfully broke through the peak of the second stage, his strength would significantly increase, and this would also be an obvious aid to the Lawrence family’s status in Evergreen Town.

Although it was a matter that was worth celebrating, George’s absence at that moment was not beneficial for Fiona and the others.

Looking at Lucas and Fabian’s excitement, Steward Lawrence sneered, “That’s right.

This is a significant thing for everyone in the Lawrence family, and we can’t let any accident happen.

The Yates family is naturally here because they attached great importance to our Lawrence family due to this matter.

Hence, they purposely came over to propose marriage, hoping to marry Lady Jessica so that the two families can have a prosperous relationship.”

When he said that, Steward Lawrence looked at Fiona and mocked, “The Yates family is Evergreen Town’s noble family, and its status matches ours.

If the two families are connected by marriage, we can develop our power further in Evergreen Town.

Due to this, the deputy head of the family ordered me to guard the surroundings strictly and prevent any mishap.

Additionally, irrelevant people aren’t allowed to enter, especially, any useless people that try to climb the social ladder!”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Steward Lawrence was directing those words to Stefan, and he was so close to directly poking his finger hard at Fiona’s chest.

Lucas and Fabian’s expressions turned ugly.

Seeing that, Lucas spoke through gritted teeth, “Since we’re not allowed to go in, then we’ll leave first.

We’ll return to report on our mission once the Old Master successfully passes his test.”

Then, Lucas dragged Stefan, and they were ready to leave.

However, Steward Lawrence suddenly shouted with a scornful tone, “Did I say you can leave just because you can’t enter?”

Lucas’s face turned gloomy, and he glared at Steward Lawrence, “What are you implying by this?”

Next, Steward Lawrence showed a malicious gaze.

He then pointed at Fiona as he smiled evilly.

“What am I implying? The deputy head of the family even ordered that we must detain any suspicious person who deliberately undermined the future of the relationship between the two families during the Yates family‘s courtship.

Especially if that person claims to be the son-in-law of the Lawrence family!”

Lucas and Fabian’s expressions were only unsightly before this, but when Steward Lawrence said such words, their faces were instantly ashen.

They never expected the Yates family to interrupt, nor did they think that seniors of the family would be so unyielding and disregarded George’s order when he was not around!

“Take him! Break his jaw so that he can’t speak anymore!” Steward Lawrence pointed at Fiona and commanded the people behind him.

When he saw Lucas and Fabian move, he roared, “Lucas! Fabian! You’re the Lawrence family’s servants.

Are you trying to rebel?!”

Lucas and Fabian trembled.

As a servant, it was disgraceful to rebel against their own master.

However, if Fiona was caught and confessed to pretending to be Nana, Lucas and Fabian would suffer the consequences.

Just as they were hesitating, Lucas suddenly felt a blur in front of him.

Next, he saw Fiona approaching Steward Lawrence.

Even though he seemed to have just taken a step, Fiona’s action was so fast that it surprised Lucas.

In a blink of an eye, Fiona was already in front of Steward Lawrence.

“Detain me?” Looking at Steward Lawrence, Fiona sneered, and he swiftly grabbed Steward Lawrence’s finger that was pointing at him.

“Who do you think you are?!”

As soon as he said that, Fiona snapped Steward Lawrence’s finger backward.

Crack!

With a crisp sound, Steward Lawrence’s finger was pressed to the back of his hand.

Steward Lawrence‘s face contorted from the immense pain.

Moreover, there was surprise and anger in his eyes.

He could not believe that Fiona would hurt him!

“Ahh!” Just as Steward Lawrence was about to curse at him, Fiona once again reached out and grabbed his hair.

Then, Fiona violently tugged at it, and Steward Lawrence could feel a tearing pain from his scalp.

Soon, everyone could hear Steward Lawrence screaming at the top of his lungs.

“Break my jaw?” Fiona smiled, showing his pearly whites, “Who gave you the gall?!”

The next second, Fiona leaped.

As if his legs were long whips sweeping in the air, he kicked Steward Lawrence’s head.

Swoosh!

The surrounding air was suddenly shaken.

With a loud bang, Steward Lawrence felt as if an iron whip was hitting him.

His cheek was sunken inward, and his eyes were protruding.

He spat out a mouthful of saliva mixed with blood and most of his teeth too.

In an instant, half of his head was bloody, and his thin rose high into the air.

Everyone at the scene felt their heart skip a beat.

However, Fiona did not stop there.

Instead, he took another big step and stepped on Steward Lawrence’s chest.
