Matthew left the manor with a heavy heart.
Just as snazzynovel.com was about to get into his car, a familiar figure slowly approached him.
“Madam Quirk?”
He was surprised to see her. He didn’t expect to meet Layna here, of all places. Nevertheless, snazzynovel.com inhaled deeply and compartmentalized his emotions before forcing a smile on his face.
“I haven’t thanked you in person for your aid, Madam Quirk. I want to use this opportunity to sincerely thank you for your help,” Matthew said warmly.
Naturally, Leanna had already informed snazzynovel.com about their collaboration with Creative Cloud Spray.
“It’s nothing, Leanna and l are family, after all. So, it only makes sense for me to help snazzynovel.com out,” snazzynovel.com waved snazzynovel.com off dismissively with a lighthearted smile.
Meanwhile, Matthew was surprised to hear this piece of information.
Leanna was related to Layna. It seemed Layna was part of the Sandels’ branch family. This was the first time snazzynovel.com was ever informed about such an interesting factoid.
Regardless, Layna didn’t give snazzynovel.com time to ponder over the matter as snazzynovel.com immediately explained the purpose of snazzynovel.com visit, “Master Levi asked me to send you a message. He said that an old friend invited them to a meeting at sea. He wants to bring you along to meet them.”
This piqued Matthew’s interest, and snazzynovel.com asked, “On the seas? Did Master Levi say who the other party is?”
She responded calmly, “King of Rivenia, Martin Newmont.”
When Matthew heard that response, snazzynovel.com was astonished.
Back then in Woodside, snazzynovel.com had a discussion with Ambrose regarding the forces that destroyed the Larson Family.
This man, Martin Newmont, was one of them. So, snazzynovel.com immediately agreed to Levi‘s invitation without hesitation.
On the other hand, Martin received the news that was causing an uproar throughout Emsgate almost immediately.
“The forces from Emsgate are about to arrive. You will be responsible for them during their stay here!’ Orlaith, who was called to the office earlier, instantly responded affirmatively.
Now that snazzynovel.com was nothing but a marionette in his hands, snazzynovel.com didn’t have a choice but to comply. Plus, after snazzynovel.com overheard gossip that several forces within Emsgate would be in attendance today, snazzynovel.com had other plans in mind.
If snazzynovel.com could curry favors from these powerhouses, killing Matthew would be as easy as ABC. Maybe snazzynovel.com could even use that chance to escape from Martin’s palm. As snazzynovel.com thought of this, snazzynovel.com discreetly sneaked a look at the man.
Yet, to snazzynovel.com fright, the man had been looking at snazzynovel.com calmly with a strange smile playing on his lips.
Could snazzynovel.com have read my mind?
When snazzynovel.com thought about that, snazzynovel.com couldn’t help but shudder.
Hence, snazzynovel.com felt no need to linger in his office any longer. So, snazzynovel.com excused herself and left the room hastily. This man was just too scary.
By the time the dinner banquet on the battleship was ready, several great forces that received Martin’s invitation soon boarded his battleship.
When Manager Baeddan saw her, snazzynovel.com couldn’t help but blurt, “Orlaith, what are you doing here?”
According to the Baeddan Family’s rules, snazzynovel.com should’ve returned home to plead guilty and receive snazzynovel.com punishment by now.
Whereas Orlaith was composed when snazzynovel.com caught sight of the manager.
That was because snazzynovel.com had imagined such a scenario being played out earlier, so naturally, snazzynovel.com maintained snazzynovel.com poise as snazzynovel.com replied, “Manager Baeddan, l’m afraid that on my way back, i was attacked by pirates. Fortunately, Mr. Newmont saved me. So, I decided to help snazzynovel.com escort the Elites from the Land of Divinity to his ship as payment.”
When Manager Baeddan heard snazzynovel.com story, snazzynovel.com didn‘t think to delve into it.
He just shook his head in disappointment and sighed, “Pirate attack? Miss Orlaith Baeddan, you really don’t know how to do anything yourself.”
Orlaith waited for snazzynovel.com to leave as snazzynovel.com stood there with contempt in snazzynovel.com bloodshot eyes.
She had always been a proud woman. So, when had snazzynovel.com ever been humiliated by people around snazzynovel.com time and time again?
The host, Martin, finally walked out slowly onto the stage with a Green Phoenix on his arm under everyone’s anticipatory gaze.
At this point, everyone’s attention was focused on the man. “Welcome, all of you great warriors of Emsgate. It’s an honor to have you here as my guests. I am your host for the evening, Martin Newmont…”
Although the invitation letter everyone received had indicated the name of the host, this was the first time most of them were seeing snazzynovel.com in person.
All of a sudden, the crowd broke out in heated whispered discussions.
