Chapter 122: Kneel And Beg!

Chapter 122: Kneel And Beg!

The man fussed as he climbed the stairs. His grumble continued all the way to the third floor.

"Go and sit with your mother." Olivia warned the kids who held her tightly. When they raised their heads in protest, she glared at them.

"Do you think your aunt is weak? Now leave!" The kids stared at the approaching man and then at their aunt before leaving.

The man stared at Olivia with a gloomy expression. He scoffed when she sent the kids away.

"Withermoon, is your sister still sleeping leisurely?" He looked at the door she was guarding like a knight. One slap from him and she would be on the ground. What gave me the confidence to stand like that?

He scorned harder when her eyes narrowed. Not acting innocent and kind anymore.

"My sister, her grace is sick, my lord. If you are here to see her, you have to wait until she wakes up." The voice had a hint of warning that made the man amused.

"Since that is the case, hurry and guide the maids for mourning rituals. The nobles would be here anytime. You do not want to present the manor badly. Do you." he waved his hands as if she was a pawn at his command. He could use her and dispose of her at any moment.

But the woman did not not nod or bow. She kept staring at him, making him frown.

"Hurry along! What are you waiting for?" he asked with a voice laced with impatience when she smiled.

"The manor represents the duke, my lord. And my sister is sick. I am sure they will not blame the widow." the man paused at once. His eyes widened and he scowled.

"Did you not say that you would take care of the rituals? What was that? An act to win hearts. And now there is no spectator, you are showing your true colors!!" the man spat with venom in his voice.

If it was in his hands, he would have thrown her out of this place long ago. She was nothing but a leech enjoying their wealth and power and now she had seduced the second prince just like her sister!

"I am afraid I have offered help which was not accepted. And I did not offer help to you." she shrugged and then turned toward the door.

"Since there is nothing else, I would be leaving first." she entered the door and slammed it shut on his face.

Bernard stared at the closed door with wide eyes. His face was full of disbelief. And then, he cursed.

"This venomous woman." he knocked on the door twice but no reply came. The man gritted his teeth. He had never requested anyone before yet the woman dared to refuse.

"Ha! I will go and inform the lord how ungrateful she is!" He mocked her and turned to leave. But he had only taken a step before stopping. He closed his eyes and cursed again.

The lord would believe he was incompetent. She had presented herself as weak and submissive. If he could not control such a weak woman, he would be called.. His hands balled into fists. No, he would not let that happen.

He turned and glared at the door again as if his eyes should be enough to break the door. But as time passed, he felt defeated.

He went and knocked on the door again. Perhaps, it had been so long and Olivia had thought that he had already left or she had never believed that he would knock the door again after being ignored twice.

When she watched him still standing there, she looked stunned. And the look of shock in her eyes was humiliating. Bennard drew in a deep breath as if making sure he would not strangle her.

"What do you want in exchange for taking care of the rituals?" his hands had already reached for his neck and he took out a heavy gold chain with a big pendant. It is not that expensive for nobles but for a woman like olivia... he smirked. Sure that she could not refuse this time.

But Olivia only watched the chain with disdain.

"If I want jewels, his highness the second prince buys enough for me." to prove her point, she raised her left hand and showed the ring on her finger. Though it was small, the jewel was shining brilliantly.

It was a rare jewel. The man frowned. Could this be the reason Lord Damon wants her around? Sure that she was threatening his position by seducing the prince, the man felt further disgusted. But at the same time, he realized he could not deal with the matter easily.

"Then what do you want? There is something you need. Don’t you?" If not, you are still not lingering here. The more he thought about it, the more he was sure that the woman had ulterior motives.

If he could find them, it would be beneficial for their lord. The woman could read his face and wanted to mock him again. But she looked at him with hesitation, making him smirk.

"There is indeed one thing I want from you, my lord. But I am afraid you would not accept my request." she played with her hands looking nervous.

The man smirked with ease. See! No matter how high they reached the ladder, their greed would never end and they would only want more and more. But that was not an issue, though he was a baron, he could offer her a good price easily.

"There is nothing i can not give, state your price!" his nose rose high as he looked at her. But the girl still shook her head.

"It is not that simple. You can not do it." she repeated with certainty and his brows furrowed.

"I can do anything. State your condition." he repeated but the woman only sighed and refused to utter it.

"God damn it! Tell me what do you want?"

"Can you give your word that you would not refuse later?" she asked with a look of hesitation making him grit his teeth.

"Yes, I’ll give you my word. Now speak. Will you?"

"Kneel and beg from me!"
