Chapter 8 Meeting Guests

After Bonnie finished measuring, she quickly went to the next room to find clothes.

Although it is unlikely that there will be temporary guests in the manor at Del's house, it has prepared different styles and sizes of clothing, which is now in handy.

However, when Bonnie came back, Charon realized that things were not as simple as he thought.

It’s not enough to just wear it on the clothes. Whether it’s the lining or the outer coat, there must be no extra wrinkles in the conspicuous areas. The hairstyle is meticulous and does not allow a messy hair to be messy. The leather shoes should be bright enough to be used as a mirror. The laces tied should be according to the specified length and should be completely symmetrical...

It was a desperate process, he wanted to refuse, but Bonnie, who had always been obedient, refused to give in in this regard, blocking the door, could not drive away at all, and still had a weak voice, Barabala said a lot of things.

What social networking represents the face of aristocrats. A good image is respect for guests and is also a very important part of aristocratic etiquette...

If he became tough, the maid could not stop him, but after looking through the memory fragments, he found that this might cause the other party to be punished by the old housekeeper.

Moreover, Sao Bao's predecessor paid great attention to these things. If he changed too much, it would be more than worth the expense of the old butler.

After considering it in multiple aspects, he finally twitched slightly and retreated back to the room and let Bonnie make trouble.

When I was dressed neatly, half an hour had passed.

In the magnificent hall, there were already several young handsome men and beautiful women sitting on the sofa, and the old housekeeper Wall was temporarily sitting with him.

In fact, even if the housekeeper is served on behalf of his own host, he cannot sit down casually. However, the young people of the Stuart family are probably aware of the old housekeeper's background and stand at the beginning, not daring to sit down casually.

The old butler refused and sat down to receive the reception.

Of course, this is because he has such strength and confidence. After all, the guest is just a junior Stuart.

Although Charon's sound of walking down the stairs was extremely slight, the old housekeeper could still tell it.

So he stood up, put one hand in front of him and the other hand behind him, and bowed slightly to the young men and women.

"Dear guests, the master is here."

Everyone looked in the direction where the old housekeeper's body was deflecting, and they happened to see Charon wearing a long coat walking down the stairs.

The long coat has dark red gold edges, and the many decorative breasts are densely lined up from the top and bottom, showing the aristocratic gorgeousness. The perfect combination is not exaggerated. The black high boots make the young man who has grown taller recently.

Of course, Charon's performance was even more eye-catching. It was not only inconsistent with what they expected, but also very different from what they remembered.

The second son of the Del family in the past had neither the heroic posture nor the great nobles nor the dignity of a great nobleman. Instead, he looked like a small nobleman from the countryside.

However, the other party gave them a completely different feeling. The calm and powerful steps, bright and sharp eyes, and the temperament of the whole person have changed drastically.

Everyone stood up one after another and met Charon in the direction he came.

"I finally waited for you, my friend!"

Seeing the boy of the same age walking quickly, Charon thought for a moment, greeted with a reserved smile: "Jay, long time no see."

This is the Stuart junior who is the best with his predecessor. This is not surprising, because although the other party is not ignorant, he is definitely a mediocre person among the family line. When he meets himself who is even more unbearable, he will naturally have the idea of ​​sympathizing with each other or looking for green leaves to set off.

"I heard Mr. Wall say you had amnesia symptoms before, but we were shocked. Now I have seen your injuries healed and I haven't forgotten us. It's so good."

The person who spoke was a mature young man in his twenties, with a gentle and humble expression, but in fact he had a strong aura. When he leaned over, Jay instinctively moved away.

"Thank you for your concern, Brother Dylan."

Charon stretched out his handshake calmly and naturally, without any previous inconvenience and weakness.

Dylan's eyes flashed slightly, and he moved his hands that were about to lift up and pat the other person on the shoulder.

After shaking hands between the two sides, Charon turned his gaze to the two girls who bowed aside, nodded slightly and said, "Lina, Lily, thank you for visiting me."

Milanese hair, green eyes, fair and silky skin, the girl's appearance is as beautiful as she remembers, and is not inferior to the Western beauties on the silver screen in her previous life.

The one who hugged her and smiled softly was her sister Lily, and the one who looked more mature was her sister Lina.

"Don't stand and sit down and chat."

Charon moved his foot, walked to the sofa in the main seat and sat down, nodding to the old butler beside him.

The old housekeeper signaled the maid to replace the drinks, although the tea cups on the crystal table were still steaming with heat.

"Charon, this time we came here to apologize to you in addition to visiting you."

Dylan held his hands together and placed them on his thighs, saying ashamed: "We invited you to the party, but did not take safety precautions and caused you to encounter misfortunes. The Stuart family has an unshirkable responsibility for this."

Seeing Charon silent, he didn't react much to his words.

Dylan's heart was slightly sank. His previous abnormal behavior made him suspect that his role in this matter was exposed.

Now it seems that this is true.

However, the nobles have their own rules of the game. Even enemies who are particularly jealous of each other must abide by the rules.

Besides, they are not the masterminds, and nothing happened to the parties involved. They are still far from the point of never stopping.

Then, just stand at attention and accept the beating.

Dylan stood up gracefully and signaled the others to stand up too.

Then, in the confused and surprised eyes of everyone, he took the lead in bowing to Charon and said solemnly: "The Stuart family will make up for the mistakes as much as possible and give the family a satisfactory answer."

Although the others were inexplicably surprised, they all bowed according to the majesty of this brother.

The sudden action did not scare Charon. He sat upright expressionlessly, put his hands on his knees, and subconsciously hitting the kneecap again and again with the ring finger in his right hand.

He had recalled many times about his predecessor's assassination and had long discovered some suspicions.

For example, when the servant of the Stuart family led him to a remote corner and was beaten by several noble children, his predecessor had shouted for help several times, but the nearby Stuart family guards were late...

He was extremely vigilant about the Stuart family, but he did not want to avenge his predecessor.

The opponent's power is too large, and the Del family is now asking for it, so it has no effect on jumping out of it, but it is like being a dying act.

Now the other party proposes to make up for it in the name of the family, and most of it is to erase this grudge, so he naturally wants to respond in one go.

But with his status in the Del family, can such a thing be decided?

This was exactly what he hesitated, so he didn't say anything immediately. As for the psychological pressure this would bring to others, it was not something he had to consider.

"Master Charon, Del and Stuart are allies, and it is not a wise move to get into evil with each other. You might as well agree."

Hearing the whispering sounds coming from his ears, Charon turned his head and looked at the old butler who was bent over with a little surprise.

Although the old housekeeper has a special identity in his memory and is deeply trusted by the family, he really didn't expect that the other party was qualified to interrupt in these matters.

But he was also a decisive person. His thoughts flashed quickly and he stood up with a smile.

"Brother Dylan, don't make the atmosphere so serious. Just contact your father and discuss these things."

Hearing him say this, Dylan was sure that this matter was temporarily revealed.

"Everyone sit down first and talk to me about the events of Winter City this time. I haven't entered the city for too long and I don't know what interesting things happened outside."

With both sides deliberately relaxing, the subsequent conversation was undoubtedly quite smooth.

The guests and the host were having fun. When Stuart and the others left, Charon was still a little regretful. He originally wanted to inquire about more outside information and fill in the gaps in his knowledge.

The black horse dragged a wide carriage and drove out of the gate with several knights. The manor behind him became farther and farther away.

"Brother Dylan, why do we have to apologize when we come to visit him? If you apologize, why do you have to salute humbly?" Lina couldn't help but complain.

"Lena is right. To be honest, we are both top families with Stuart and the Del family. Now the other party still has something to ask for. Even if we have to take responsibility for the assassination, we don't have to put our posture so low."

Lina unexpectedly looked at the boy opposite, but she didn't expect that the one who helped her was Jay with a good relationship with Charon.

But she didn't know that the latter had discovered the essential difference between herself and the second son of the Del family from the previous incident.

In Jay's opinion, both of them are mediocre people with low status in the family and are not valued.

But even Dylan had to bow his head and apologize and deliberately repair it. Is the other party still his kind? The answer is obvious, and he is very jealous.

Dylan pressed the temple, not wanting to hear them making noise, and immediately shouted: "You two know nothing, just shut up!"

The two of them were suddenly silent and did not dare to bother with their brothers in this state.

The depression lasted for a long time, and a light voice broke the silence, but it was Lily, who looked soft and well-behaved.

"Brother Dylan, then do we still marry the Del family?"

Dylan did not lose his temper, raised his eyelids and said, "No more marriage, grandfather and father have made a decision."

"Yeah?"

Lily said with some regret: "I think Charon's acting skills are worth our investment. We have not discovered his true side for so long."

"We may not be able to get any benefits from him because of such a deep scheming, and this matter has left a barrier in the hearts of both parties. Instead of paying attention to afternoon desserts, it is better to cooperate with the Del family. This is our main dish of Stuart."
