Seeing that Xiao was planning to kill Paul, Crystal immediately tried to stop him.

"Hmm? You don't want to spare his life, do you?"

"I don't care about this kind of guy, it's just..."

Crystal paused with a complicated expression.

"It's just that I don't want you to do this. I don't want you to become a bad person..."

Crystal is afraid that Xiao will cross some lines that shouldn't be crossed by killing the present Paul.

Xiao swung his sword down, slashing it into the ground beside Paul, frightening him unconscious.

"I'm such a despicable person, and you still say I'm not a bad person..."

Xiao smiled helplessly and returned to Crystal's side.

"Kyle is dead, and now the Hobbs family has no ability to interfere here anymore."

"Is that so? Thank you."

Crystal leaned against Xiao, looking at him with a blushing face.

“As for what happens next, I will make arrangements.

The evil wizard forced the eldest daughter of the Macaulay family to sign a marriage contract.

He kidnapped Paul from the Hobbs family and used evil spirits to control him to destroy Nosti.

In the end, the coerced eldest lady took a huge risk to repel the magician and rescued Paul and Nosti.

How about this script?

"Not at all, and I'm not the eldest daughter of the Macaulay family."

Crystal lowered her eyes in disappointment.

Recalling the previous conversation between her parents, the girl felt very depressed.

"You are Martha and Ed's sister. You don't have to doubt this."

"But...I am not the daughter of the Marquis of Leicester."

"How do you know if you haven't tried it?"

“Is this thing genuine?”

Crystal looked at Xiao and took out a silver-white card, feeling very suspicious.

"This is a collection of the Hobbs family."

"Pfft! You really are..."

Crystal grabbed Xiao's clothes, looking very uneasy.

"Don't worry, I will be with you no matter what the result is."

After arranging his men, Lester stood in front of the ruins of the Macaulay mansion, feeling very confused.

The mansion where he had lived since childhood was destroyed just like that.

Just like the Macaulay family he swore to protect.

(Ah, why did it become like this?)

The responsibility for Paul being possessed by the dead will undoubtedly be placed on the Macaulay family.

Those who want to take over Macaulay, led by the Hobbs family, will definitely take this opportunity to swarm in.

Due to Angela's betrayal, the Macaulay family can now be considered dead in name only.

But Leicester had no idea what to do.

Chapter 39 Father and Daughter

Lester never met his parents.

He was adopted by his uncle as a child as the heir to the Macaulay family.

Lester's father died before he was born, and his mother was forced to marry into the Horatio family after giving birth to him. She died of illness a few years after giving birth to two children.

Lester's uncle liked to talk to him about his parents since he was a child.

It is said that the two were very much in love, but it is a pity...

On the one hand, Lester's aunt is a member of the Horatio family, and on the other hand, it is out of guilt towards Lester's parents.

Lester's uncle handed the Macaulay family over to him.

The boy, who was only 17 years old at the time, also vowed to protect the McCauley family and prevent tragedies like his parents from happening again in this family.

Macaulay Territory is not rich, but it has a city called Nosti located on a major transportation route and several large underground cities.

However, the declining Macaulay family was unable to protect this wealth.

Lester knew that weakness was a family sin.

In order to prevent his family from being taken away, he hired someone to assassinate his half-brother.

In order to join the imperial capital's sphere of influence, he suppressed his inner hatred and married Angela from the Horatio family.

He did so much to gain power and protect his family.

but…

"Hey, father-in-law!"

Seeing Lester standing in a daze in front of the ruins of the mansion, Xiao greeted him jokingly.

"Hey! Stop yelling, you bastard."

Seeing Crystal blushing and complaining in Xiao's arms, Lester felt very complicated.

It was obvious that he no longer considered Crystal his own daughter, but Lester was still very unhappy.

"You, must be Xiao. It seems I've been deceived by you two."

Lester looked at the intimacy between the two and smiled bitterly.

Xiao didn't answer, but took out the Aphrodite Identification.

"What does it mean?"

Lester looked at Xiao with great displeasure.

"Isn't it obvious? I just want you two to confirm your relationship."

"What's the point of doing this?"

"Maybe not for you, but yes for Chris."

Looking at Xiao's serious eyes, Lester sighed helplessly.

"I see."

He took out a dagger and cut his finger.

Lester didn't know why he agreed to Xiao's request.

Xiao put Crystal down and gently cut her fingers apart.

"Xiao...I..."

Seeing that Crystal looked a little timid, Xiao touched her head.

"Don't worry, I'll be with you no matter what, okay?"

"Um…"

When two drops of blood fell on the silver card, a warm golden light burst out.

"It seems the results are out."

Xiao gently wiped away the tears of happiness from Crystal's eyes and smiled at Lester.

"Mr. Xiao, could you please take Crystal away? In that case, the Macaulay family will at least..."

"Mr. Lester, do you really want me to take Crystal away for the sake of the Macaulay family?"

Xiao looked at Lester and asked him back.

"It's not...it doesn't seem so."

Looking at his daughter's lonely and sad expression, Lester lost his confidence.

"If what's lost can't be recovered, then cherish what you have. At least, don't you still have three children by your side?"

Xiao held Crystal in Lester's arms and said seriously.

"But…"

"Even if it's temporary,"

"Hey! Xiao..."

Crystal felt something was wrong and looked at Xiao in panic.

After Xiao stroked her bangs, Crystal felt a little dizzy and fell asleep in Lester's arms.

"This child is also my fiancée. Leave everything else to me."

"please."

Watching Xiao leave with his hood on, Lester murmured with guilt.

"Xiao, how is Sister Crystal?"

Lucy asked anxiously after seeing Xiao.

"I have taken care of the injury. She is now with the Marquis of Macaulay."

"That's great, what should we do next?"

"Let's go to the imperial capital and solve all the remaining problems."

"Ms. Su Lin'er, you are also very beautiful today."

Facing the two young nobles who were chatting with her, Su Lin'er tried hard to maintain a smile.

Su Lin'er felt very disgusted by the guy in front of her.

She knew very well that these people were only attracted by her title of hero and beautiful appearance.

Ever since Su Lin'er became the chief brave warrior of the Gadis Empire, people like this have been pestering her every time she attends a banquet.

"Feel sorry."

Su Lin'er ignored what the two of them said and turned around to leave.

Although the two young men were very unhappy, they did not dare to say anything directly.

"Oh, if I had known earlier, I would have stayed with Xiao Xier."

Su Lin'er regretted not staying with a girl named Hillary O'Neill.

Although there were more men flirting with Hillilite, at least there were people who were good at dealing with them to help Su Lin'er.

Just as Su Lin'er was worried about the three new people who had appeared to approach her, the banquet hall suddenly became quiet.

The protagonist appears.

Looking at the protagonists of this engagement party, the second prince of the Gadis Empire and his fiancée, Su Lin'er felt a little disgusted.

This is already the second prince’s fourth fiancée.

And Ayane heard even more about his secret lover.

Although she has been in this world for some time, Su Lin'er still cannot accept the values ​​of these people.

Polygamy and polyandry were permitted, at least in the Gadis Empire.
