He said it as if he really liked Miss Graham not because of their aristocratic status.

"But everything you said is false. The Dryden family only wants the property of the Graham family. She has no parents, nor brothers and sisters. You just want to get her family's property through marriage. And Everything. You just want to use high-sounding means to take everything Miss Graham has for yourself."

"I don't deny it. But this is beneficial to both parties, isn't it? All aristocratic marriages are like this. Except for love, they are all for profit and political purposes."

"Generally, that's the case. The premise is that you are not a liar."

Santa Karina was tired of seeing the other party's poor acting skills.

And Curtis has never had much patience, and she must be eager to know the answer.

"At first, maybe you did think like you said. However, Miss Graham has a fatal flaw, or in other words, it is something that a noble like you who prides himself on having noble blood cannot tolerate. A place. That is... Miss Graham, she has a curse on her body, which is a curse that was bitten by a vampire and tried to transform into the same kind.

Thinking about it, although I have never seen the family crest, I think it must be a magic item that can curb the curse.Usually, nobles will use ancient objects, precious things inlaid with a large number of magic stones, as a medium to add magic.It can prevent Miss Graham's curse from being triggered. I think Miss Graham is a kind lady. She must have told you the fact of the curse after you proposed to her.

Only that family crest can curb the curse of vampires and allow Miss Graham to live in the Toland Empire as a human being, not a monster.You want to expose this secret, this curse of Miss Graham, to the world and humiliate her!In this way, you can successfully terminate your engagement without being criticized by anyone.You even want her to go to jail and be arrested as a heretic, so that you can use your identity as your fiancé to successfully embezzle her property. "

Santa Karina listed her conjectures one by one.

"Really? You have said so much. Do you have any evidence? For example, I took the family emblem."

The young master sneered. He firmly believed that Santa Karina would never be able to produce evidence.

"I'm sorry, I'm afraid this will disappoint you. I found your servant before, and he said it was on you."

"Do you want to search me?"

He slammed his hand on the table, and the thick mahogany table made a dull sound, as if it was some kind of demonstration.

"Get rid of it! These accusations are too much for me and a gentleman. They are all unfounded charges."

"I understand, I will come and get the evidence."

Santa Karina, on the other hand, is calm.

She was really calm and frightening from beginning to end.

"Charming humanoid."

As the spell was recited, a deep magical luster flashed in Santa Karina's blue eyes, and the red light fell on the young master in front of her.Then, the man who thought he was noble and said that Santa Karina was making false accusations about his character was controlled.

"Take out the family crest."

Santa Karina gave the order directly.

"Yes."

The man nodded mechanically.

Soon, he groped into his jacket pocket and pulled out a family crest inlaid with many beautiful magic gems from a cold silver chain.

It is a symbol of the family and a symbol of the marriage contract between the two.

Now that the stolen goods have been obtained, the truth turns out to be Miss Graham's fiancé.Only if he takes it will he not be aware of it, and no one will notice it.

"Give me something."

Then, Santa Karina gave another order.

"Yes."

His mind was controlled again, and he was asked questions in a mechanical manner.

"Okay, now it's done. The magic is lifted."

Santa Karina said as she lifted the magic.

"I think now we have proof. You liar and thief."

"You guys won..."

The man plopped down and fell to his knees as if he couldn't bear it anymore. His handsome face looked like he had aged 20 years.

233. Retention in the boudoir

After that, Santa Karina didn't do anything to the young master. After a little intimidation, she made him obediently hand over one-tenth of his family property, converted it into gold coins, and gave it to them.

The money was a transaction. Santa Karina would not disclose the young master's affairs to the public, but would only tell the young lady.

That little money is worth it to keep his reputation, at least that's what the young master of the Dryden family thinks.

It seems that his family is indeed very wealthy and well-off. They have paid off the debts of Miss Graham's family and still have a surplus as compensation for the crimes they committed.

Externally, the young master would also say that this was an apology to Miss Graham for suddenly canceling the wedding.

"Santa Karina, you knew this would happen?"

Curtis narrowed his eyes and looked at Santa Karina.She was probably wondering why Santa Karina's head was so smart.

"Yes, I guessed it a long time ago. Are you satisfied with this result?"

"As an adventure, looking for things is still boring. However, watching a good play is even more exciting than a performance in a theater."

Curtis offered fair praise.

Next, they returned to Miss Graham's mansion in the dark of night. What greeted them was the hostess who looked anxiously waiting for news.

She looked at Santa Karina and Curtis eagerly, her eyes sparkling with anticipation, probably waiting for the good news to come.

"How's it going? Did you find my family crest?"

Miss Graham waited too long. She was so eager for good news that she forgot the etiquette of aristocrats. She did not call Miss Adventurer, or even let the two of them sit down before talking.

With this look, even the housekeeper, who didn't like adventurers and initially disliked Santa Karina as newcomers, was frightened.Normally, she would have severely scolded her master, which was unbecoming.

In fact, when the housekeeper came back to her senses, she did exactly that.

"Miss, shouldn't you first care about the physical condition of the two adventurers? You don't even have the most basic names and greetings. As a member of the Graham family, as the hostess, you should treat those who help you. Guests are a little more polite and considerate.”

"Ah... um."

Miss Graham was obviously offended by the housekeeper, her expression was a little dazed, and then she really realized that her performance just now had many shortcomings.

"Well... I'm very sorry. Melville was right. It was my fault. I was too carried away. As you know, I was too eager to get the news."

She apologized politely.

"It doesn't matter, I think you are very charming like this, Miss Graham~"

Santa Karina didn't mind at all.

"Charming is not enough. Miss Adventurer... The world is difficult to turn based on personal thoughts and will. Miss is the mistress of the Graham family. Her duty is to behave dignifiedly, commensurate with her social status.

Failure to perform aristocratic etiquette and behave in a manner that is consistent with one's status is an insult to the lady's aristocratic lineage, which will make other nobles and people of the same social status as the lady laugh at us.Even the servants looked down upon her.They would talk about the young lady behind her back, saying that she was not worthy of being the mistress of the Graham family or inheriting such a large family fortune.

Etiquette errors may not seem like a big deal to you, but they are very important to us.If the young lady forgets her etiquette, her marriage to the Dryden family may be annulled..."

After saying that, the housekeeper glared at the two of them fiercely.

Oh, this is really repaying kindness with hatred.How could Miss Graham have such a rigid, inflexible housekeeper?

"Let me say it first. In fact, the engagement has been cancelled. When we went to the Dryden family's mansion, their manservant stopped us, said a lot of unpleasant words, and wanted to use violence, but we solved it ”

"Solve it? How do you solve it?"

"Of course, we used the adventurer's method of fighting violence with violence. We beat him up with even greater violence."

Santa Karina said with a charming smile on her lips.

"Oh my god..."

The housekeeper seemed to be imagining the scene in her mind, and then sighed.She looked like she had eaten a fly, and felt that she should not listen to her lady's advice and let novice adventurers participate.

"It's over, everything is ruined. You ruined the young lady's wedding, everything is over."

However, even though she was like this, she never said a word to insult the two of them.Unlike the male servants of the Dryden family over there who are always talking about rice and rice, the housekeeper is very well-educated.

As if she couldn't bear to look at her age and the appearance of her world collapsing and collapsing, Santa Karina continued to explain:

"Actually, this wedding is a scam. The fiancé of the Dryden family is a complete liar and thief.

In fact, we asked many passers-by on the street at the beginning and went to intelligence dealers to buy relevant information.Those dealers are like water rats who go crazy when they smell the smell of food. As long as they really have information, they will definitely do it even if it is just a little bit.

Of course we got no useful information, just as Miss Graham's family crest disappeared.No strangers or masked suspicious persons entered the Graham family mansion that day.This is what I got from all the intelligence.

So, I came to a conclusion.If it's not external theft, it's internal theft.Miss Graham will definitely not throw such an important thing around, but will take good care of it.

I have a bold idea, but this requires the cooperation of the Dryden family gentleman.At the beginning, when the manservant heard that we were hired adventurers and were acting for Miss Graham, he immediately asked us to get out, threatened us, and even wanted to use magic to burn us to death.

So, I made him see that violence cannot solve all problems.At least, this is not possible when encountering a more powerful violent organization. "

Santa Karina gave a sinister smile, which was quite scary.

"I beat him half to death. Don't worry, I didn't kill him. So, he betrayed his master and told us which room his master was resting in. Through some tricks, we finally found Miss Graham I personally found this family crest on my fiancé’s body.”

Santa Karina took out the family coat of arms and showed it to Miss Graham.

There is no doubt that this is the real thing.

"He...gave it to you automatically?"

Miss Graham asked weakly.

"Of course not, it's also through magic. For example, Miss Graham, if you have taken a magic course, you should know the magic of charming humanoid creatures. I am much stronger than that Mr. Liar, so the magic takes effect immediately. "

Santa Karina smiled triumphantly, like a king who loved to show his shark teeth when conquering women and countries.

"I asked him to take out the family crest, and then in front of me, he pulled the silver chain from his jacket pocket or the inner pocket of his clothes and took out the family crest. I also recorded the magic video, you guys You can look at this crystal ball. Of course, I also thoughtfully asked him to pay a little money, which is enough to pay off the debts left by the parents of the Graham family."

Santa Karina took out another magic crystal ball, and bang bang ten heavy bags. Ten bags were filled with gold coins, one bag was filled with a thousand gold coins, and the total was ten thousand gold coins.

As he said himself, his family is quite wealthy.

The young master seized on Miss Graham's weakness of not wanting to sell her ancestral home and property to pay back the money, and her weakness of wanting to maintain the dignity of the aristocracy, and forced Miss Graham to marry someone she didn't like.

It can be seen that this young lady is not at all sad about the marriage being disrupted.She slowly read all the pictures in the crystal ball and understood the ins and outs of the matter and the real truth. The huge blow made her face pale, which was a classic expression when she woke up from a scam.

She even stutters a little...

"I...I'm really shocked. I even don't believe that he would lie to me.

I believed him so much that I even told him I had a curse on me.But on the surface, he said that he didn't mind this matter at all, letting me wait for the wedding preparations with peace of mind, but afterwards he secretly planned everything. He even wanted to destroy me and everything in the Graham family. "

In fact, if the Graham family's property were sold, only one-third of the property would be sold to pay off all the debts.

This is because her parents were attacked by demons before, and young Miss Graham saved her life because of the evil taste of vampires.Her housekeeper helped her hire a powerful magician to attach magic to the family crest, and use the magic to suppress vampire transformation to suppress the curse.

The money to hire a master cost almost all the liquid savings.With the training of capital chain, all the things my parents did before were naturally declared bankrupt.For this reason, the previously signed order also signed a large liquidated damages, but Miss Graham was allowed to delay it until she came of age.

Now Miss Graham is 19 years old, and the backlog of debts she has accumulated no longer allows her to drag on any longer.

She is also not protected by the Toland Empire, as the Graham family is not without money.

The young master only needs to spend one part of the money and get three parts of the money in return.At the same time, he can also marry a respectable aristocratic bride who is well matched. Miss Graham is very shy and quiet, which is in line with his psychological expectations for his future wife.

It was originally like this...

However, after the young master proposed to Miss Graham and got the inside story about Miss Graham's curse, his mentality changed.

There was no way he would marry a vampire, a monster, into the family.

Once the transformation is completed, vampires will also be on the demon side.

Then, a terrible thought arose in his mind.He thought, just let Miss Graham become a real vampire.He can report and use family power to operate, so that Miss Graham can truly be imprisoned as a member of the demon clan and as a genuine vampire who is harmful to mankind.

The crime just needs to be fabricated.There can be as many such crimes as you want, and nobles are best at this.

Moreover, as Miss Graham's fiancé, such a righteous act of annihilation will definitely win the favor of many people.

In this way, as long as Miss Graham goes to jail, he can use a little trick to make Miss Graham die in prison. As his fiancé and the victim of the incident, he pretends to be deceived. If you look like this, you can gain both fame and fortune, and reasonably obtain all the Graham family's property.

"What a terrible plan..."

murmured Miss Graham.She turned her head and looked out the window.

She looked at the night sky outside the window, not knowing what she was thinking.

The stars are twinkling in the sky. The weather is very good today, so there are especially many stars today.

The stars were distant and cold, and the moon hung low in the deep, velvety darkness.The moon is round and full, like a disk.

"Well……"

Her body trembled.

Suddenly, Miss Graham's body began to shake, she lost strength, and she was about to fall.
