Chapter 450 The Noble Duke is Cruel and Brutal 14

Lingyao didn't even listen carefully to what Leonard said, and just casually hummed.

She likes it, how could she not like it?

Lingyao pulled her hand away from Leonard and sat down at the dining table without Leonard asking her to do so.

When Leonard heard Lingyao say that she liked him, the joy on his face was visible to the naked eye.

He didn't say anything about Lingyao's perfunctory behavior.

After eating, Lingyao went straight back to her room and had a good sleep early.

The next morning, before dawn, I got up and went out.

He walked to the backyard of the Duke's Mansion and climbed out through the back door.

Lingyao headed straight for the street that the nobles talked about the most.

The streets are full of flowers, from beginning to end.

No matter what the store sells, there are many different kinds of flowers planted in front of each store.

Very romantic.

Lingyao came to this street but didn't buy anything.

I found a secluded little shop, sat down, and stared at something aimlessly.

Until a figure appeared in front of a store.

Anna walked out of the store. She was wearing an exquisite little skirt and her hair was tied up in the fashionable style of Bill Country recently.

The originally straight black hair now has a slight curl at the ends.

The makeup on her face also tends to be European and American.

There was also a man in a high-end suit standing next to him.

Anna respectfully escorted the man to the car, with a flattering look on her face.

After seeing the customer off, she walked back to the shop with a happy look on her face.

"Miss Anna, there is a new customer in the store."

The helper Anna hired saw her come in and greeted her quickly.

The smile on Anna's face disappeared in an instant when she saw the person sitting there.

In the back room of the store.

Two cages of lush potted plants are placed on the left and right sides respectively.

The room is not big but has a very well-organized layout and you can tell it has been carefully arranged.

There are some Eastern Bagua formations hanging on the wall, and some Belial tarot cards on the table.

The lighting in the house was also specially adjusted, with a mixture of light and dark, creating a very atmospheric feeling.

This is the metaphysical career that Anna created with the money after arriving in Bir.

Anna poured a glass of boiled water and placed it in front of Lingyao.

Standing in the position she had occupied during divination, the room gave her a sense of familiarity and control.

This made her not seem flustered when facing Lingyao, and she even looked very relaxed.

"What do you want from me? I remember I once said that we should just pretend we don't know each other."

As he spoke, he even stopped calling her the Ninth Princess.

Lingyao didn't waste any words.

His fingers tapped lightly on the table. Facing the unfamiliar environment, he was more at ease and calmer than Anna.

He said directly: "The money you took must be returned to you in full."

Anna was not surprised to hear Lingyao's words.

He just laughed out loud, with a look of confidence and a hint of sarcasm on his face.

"Xuanyuan Lingyao, I let you off by not exposing you, but you still dare to come to me and ask for money?"

After seeing Lingyao at the banquet, Anna specifically asked about Lingyao's news.

Everyone among the nobles knew that Lingyao was someone Duke Leonard knew in the Eastern Country.

Even the king and Prince Hart didn't know that Lingyao was the princess sent by Xuanyuan Kingdom to Bir Kingdom to marry the king.

Anna was no longer afraid that Lingyao would hold her accountable.

She even realized that between Lingyao and her, it was Lingyao who should be more afraid of her secret identity being exposed.

After all, even if she took Xuanyuan Lingyao's things and ran away, she should be sent back to Xuanyuan Kingdom even if she was to be convicted.

And if she were reported in Bir Country, Lingyao's identity would definitely be exposed.

So Anna didn't quite understand why Xuanyuan Lingyao dared to ask her for money.

It has been a while since she arrived in Bir Kingdom. Is this Ninth Princess still so naive and stupid to the point of making people laugh?

Anna left the party early yesterday due to illness after meeting Lingyao.

Didn’t you see Lingyao confronting Brooks directly last night?

For the time being, no one among the nobles dared to spread what happened last night.

They can't afford to offend either Brooks or Leonard.

So at this moment, Anna looked at Lingyao with a very impolite look.

"Xuanyuan Lingyao, tell me, what would you do if the king, Prince Hart, or even Duke Leon knew your true identity?"

Anna looked at Lingyao with a gentle smile, her tone full of threats.

"I don't know, tell me."

She wasn't familiar with the king and Prince Hart, so how could she know what they would do?

But maybe the God of Wealth would feel good, after all, he already knew it, and he might even find married women exciting.

Anna was choked by Lingyao's words.

What do you mean by not knowing? Tell me.

She was the wife of a king, yet she behaved intimately with a duke and even faked her own death. Did she need to tell her what the consequences would be if she was discovered?!

Anna curled her lips coldly, smiling: "Xuanyuan Lingyao, aren't you afraid that the king will execute you after he finds out? And Duke Leon, won't he suspect that you deliberately approached him?"

Although she had never met the Duke of Leon, she could tell that he was dangerous just by looking at him from afar.

Anyone who dares to tease him will suffer a bad fate.

Anna thought that after she had said so much, Xuanyuan Lingyao should understand.

At this time, Xuanyuan Lingyao should be begging her to bribe her, hoping that she would not leak the news.

However, Lingyao remained calm, looking at her with eyes as cold as ice, and said slowly: "Don't be afraid, I just approached him on purpose."

So what?

She didn't try to be sweet, soft and pretty to get close to the baby God of Wealth.

Are you going to get close to that old King Bill? He has very few hairs on his head.

I guess there's a baby in her belly.

Lingyao really couldn't bear to watch it.

Or her baby, the God of Wealth, is so beautiful!

Anna almost vomited blood. She was so angry at Lingyao's superior response.

A little crazy.

Lingyao saw that Anna had no intention of paying back the money.

stood up from his seat.

The butler who was ordered to stand outside the door and watch the door only heard the sound of something falling to the ground from inside the house.

After a while, the sound disappeared and the room became completely quiet.

After a while, the guest who was invited to the inner room came out.

In her hand, she was holding a bag of emerald gems with great fanfare, and there was also a gem inside, which the male servant remembered was inlaid on a stool in the room.

Without any cover-up, he just swaggered out and took out a bag with the things in it.

When she saw him, she showed no intention of avoiding him.

Instead, a pair of cold eyes looked towards him.

The butler met his cold eyes, saw her lips opening and closing, and then his mind became confused.

Gradually, only a blank space was left.

Lingyao carried a large bag of gems and gold coins and turned into the shop next door.

It was not until night fell that he slowly returned from outside in a carriage.

As soon as she got off the carriage, Matthew, who had been waiting for a long time, came to meet her hurriedly.

His face showed anxiety, yet some relief.

I almost thought that this lady would not come back.

"The Duke is still waiting for you to have dinner. Why didn't you tell the Duke that you were going out today?"
