Chapter 15: Eric Hayes; Family Discount
"Welcome to the Hayes family store, valued customer! Please tell me what you would like to purchase."
As Lukas entered the store with Oriana, a young lady, probably 16-17 years old, dressed in black and silver robes greeted him with a smile.
While he was Viscount and Hayes family’s daughter’s son, because he rarely left the mansion, very few people were familiar with him.
So, seeing this young lady not recognise him, he wasn’t surprised in the least. Moreover, he preferred this. Unfortunately, his identity would soon be revealed.
Just as he thought this, the sound of heavy footsteps sounded as the young man he encountered outside entered the store with his Knights.
"Greetings, Young Master Eric!"
The store employees greeted him respectfully, but the young man, Eric, ignored them and stared at Lukas who was standing with his back facing him.
"Hasn’t aunt Helen teaching you anything? How come you have become so rude?!" He coldly asked,
Hearing his words, everyone including the young lady who greeted Lukas, looked at him in surprise.
"Y-You are Lady Helen’s son, the famous Young Lord, Lukas? No wonder you also have silver hair like everyone else in the Hayes family." The young lady blurted out, but then she realized she had spoken out of turn and hurriedly clamped her mouth shut before bowing in apology toward him and Eric, "I-I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to—"
"It’s alright." Lukas and Eric said at the same time. The only difference was that Lukas’ voice was calm while Eric’s was cold.
