It was another day of rehearsals.

Clare returned to his familys manor angrily from the Judgement Church.

Father, this Fiona is too much. She didnt come to rehea.r.s.e today. She doesnt take us seriously at all.

Now, he had become a joke in Mithril City.

The bride was not willing to rehea.r.s.e with him at all. It was likely that something would happen to the wedding later.

Therefore, they were all waiting to see a joke.

Quiet down. Youre so easily angered. How are you going to inherit the family in the future?

Tuzman snorted in dissatisfaction.

Seeing that his father was angry, Clare was also a little fl.u.s.tered.

He had always been very afraid of his father since he was young because he was always very strict.

Father, but that Laurent family is really too much. If this continues, Im afraid that something will happen to the wedding later, Clare said in a low voice.

Dont worry, they dont have the guts. They begged us to do this. We didnt force them.

I know Fiona too. Shes a pretty good daughter-in-law. Its a pity that shes a girl. Otherwise, the Laurent family would have a bright future.

Is she that good?

Clare couldnt believe it.

The reason why he agreed to this wedding was because he liked Fionas good looks and her curvy figure.

To put it bluntly, he coveted her body.

As for her strength and other circ.u.mstances, he did not investigate them in detail.

Humph, if you werent born in the Cook family, you wouldnt even be worthy to mention Fiona.

Looking at his fathers disappointed look, Clare felt a little uncomfortable.

But deep down, he didnt think so.

They were now relying on the Reigning family, and their own family was getting stronger and stronger.

Not many people in Demacia dared not give them face.

So what was he trying to do now?

Just enjoy it!

Tuzman also saw that his son didnt care, and sighed secretly.

He really thought highly of Fiona.

He thought that she would bring the Cook family to a higher level after she married into the family.

Otherwise, why would he, the patriarch of the Cook family tolerate Fionas willfulness?

If it were anyone else, they would have scolded her in anger.

Now, as long as she married into the family in the end, everything else would be fine.

You have to be more patient with her. I think highly of her. If this matter fails in the end, you will be grounded at home, Tuzman warned his son.

Eh? Alright.

Clare looked depressed.

Patriarch, theres someone outside who wants to see you. He says hes an old friend of yours.

At this moment, a guard suddenly came in and reported a piece of news.

An old friend?

Tuzman was a little puzzled.

He didnt remember any old friends.

What does he look like?

He has disguised himself. I cant tell.

The guard shook his head.

Father, in my opinion, he probably came to seek refuge with us. Then, he deliberately pretended to be your old friend. Let your subordinates handle it, Clare said casually.

Because this had happened many times.

Ever since their family had developed, more and more people came to seek refuge with them.

But they didnt accept everything. At least they had to have a certain amount of power.

Tuzman thought the same.

Ask him to go down and arrange a position for him.

Chief, he said that he must see you. He also asked me to give you a message saying that if you hear it, you will definitely meet him.

The guard didnt do what Tuzman said. Instead, he said another sentence.

Oh? Theres such a thing? Tell me about it.

Tuzmans interest was piqued.

Could it be that this person was really an old friend of his?

It was a snowy night 300 years ago.

He only said that one sentence.

The guard was also scratching his head.

Is this a charade? Just chase him out.

Clare hated people like this who could not speak clearly.

If there was anything to say or what was the meaning of it, just say it directly. Why beat around the bush?

Three hundred years ago on a snowy night?

Tuzman began to recall.

Three hundred years ago!

Snowy night!

Could it be him?

How could it be?

Tuzman immediately stood up, his face filled with shock.

He thought of who the person outside was.

But he did not expect that the other party was so bold to actually dare to come here.

Is he alone? Tuzman asked the guard who came to report back.

Yes, Chief, hes alone.

After pondering for a moment, Tuzman made a decision.

Bring him to the Reception Hall and entertain him well.

Although he did not know why the other party had escaped and still dared to come here to look for him

But he thought that there must be something going on, or else he would not have taken such a risk.

Got it, Chief.

After the guard left, Clare asked curiously, Father, who is that person outside? I see that you are very shocked.

He had never seen such an expression on his fathers face.

Dont ask about what you shouldnt know. Youd better think about how to woo Fiona.

After giving a cold snort, Tuzman left directly.

Tsk, if you dont want to say it, then dont say it. Seriously, Id better go find the beauty I met yesterday. Shes much gentler than Fiona, hehe.

Thinking of the beauty from yesterday, Clares face was full of amus.e.m.e.nt. He directly forgot Tuzmans instructions behind him.

When Tuzman came to the living room, there was only one person here leisurely drinking tea.

How dare you come to my place? Arent you afraid that Ill use you to take credit from Gawain IV?

Tuzman directly rebuked him.

Haha, if you really think so, you wouldnt have let me come here.

After taking off the disguise, Silas laughed loudly.

This person was surprisingly Silas, who had already escaped from prison.

After discussing this matter with the black-robed man yesterday, he had been thinking about which family to go to.

The Reigning family definitely couldnt be it!

They were the Light s.h.i.+eld familys hardcore supporters.

Moreover, he had designs on Lux.

Therefore, the two sides were born to be enemies.

However, he wasnt too familiar with the other families. If he rashly went, he might alert the enemy.

After thinking about it, he chose a family.

That was the Cook family.

This family was a relative of the Reigning family. They were powerful. Ordinary people would never think that they would betray them.

In addition, the head of the Cook family had met him once.

When he was captured by Demacias people three hundred years ago, one of the people who captured him was Tuzman.

Therefore, he asked the guards to send such a message to Tuzman, which was to show his ident.i.ty.

He was also gambling!

Gambling on the greed of this guy, Tuzman.

Gambling on him coming to see him.

Because when Tuzman captured Silas, he saw greed and ambition in his eyes.

Of course, even if there was an accident, with his current strength, he could quickly escape from Mithril City.

But the result was still good.

Tuzman agreed to meet him.

His plan succeeded.
