Chapter 139: Believe (1)
I felt sorry for the wood of the armrest barely holding on. The elegantly shaped armrest was on the verge of bending.
The sharp sound just now – wasn’t that actually the sound of Liam’s reason snapping? With his veins bulging, I worried Lucita’s precious furniture might break. Lucita must have sensed it too, as she warned Liam:
“Fight outside. Not in my house.”
But no one left. For one, Liam had me here, and that man… despite provoking with his words, he seemed to hate the idea of actually fighting. The man clung to Lucita’s arm, whimpering.
“Waaah, Master. I can’t fight. You said you’d raise me to be pretty.”
With her arm being tugged, Lucita let out a groan.
“How did I end up with this in my twilight years…”
Indeed. Even Lucita, known as the First Invader, seemed to be dealing with this type for the first time.
Lucita eventually stroked the aspiring butler’s head as if soothing a young animal. It was skilled training. As he closed his mouth, the room became very quiet, and the atmosphere instantly improved. Liam’s expression also soon softened.
