Chapter 345: Thirty silly-looking women_2

This was Mandy’s proudest achievement, being born in an ordinary family but it was precisely because of her exceptionally high-quality silver notes that she was able to marry into the Hailuo Family.

And she successfully bore Hevnia of the Golden Rank’s Seventh Note, thus establishing her status as the family head.

So, Hevnia and these notes were what Mandy was most proud of, and she wished she could display them to outsiders all the time.

This was also why she dressed in this manner, and why she insisted on having the maid wake Hevnia to receive visitors.

It was all to satisfy her desire to show off.

Of course, what Mandy wanted to boast about the most was Hevnia’s golden notes; if it weren’t for the family head explicitly prohibiting it, Mandy would certainly have Hevnia dress in the same attire to receive guests, while stroking Hevnia’s skin and smiling at the guests saying, “This is my child.”

And this was not just wild guessing on Hevnia’s part, she had learned from the housemaids that when the real Hevnia was younger, Mandy had indeed done similar things, having her stand unclothed under the gaze of countless people.

Therefore, Hevnia had always believed that the real Hevnia’s twisted personality definitely had something to do with Mandy.

This was indeed a selfish and foolishly laughable woman, who had nothing in her mind except for showing off.

But Hevnia did not dislike Mandy’s foolishness; in fact, if it wasn’t for her predictable stupidity, when Hevnia first arrived here a year ago, knowing nothing, she would not have been able to deceive and adapt in such a short time.

Moreover, Mandy was helpful to the current Hevnia.

Hevnia had carefully observed Mandy’s various poses and gestures, as despite being foolish, the woman certainly had a pleasant face, possessing a charm that appealed to many men. These were all things that Hevnia, a little girl from the Seed District, had never experienced before.

Thus, in the challenge of “becoming the real Hevnia,” the first model she referenced was Mandy.

And even now, some of Mandy’s habits could still be traced back to Hevnia.

For instance, Hevnia often showcased her beautiful, fair neck, ensuring that anyone passing by could see the subtly visible golden scales with a casual glance backward.

And most men fell for this, like Hevnia’s senior brother Dosi.

But there were those who didn’t, like that entity inside her who might not even be considered human.

Hmm… it seems like we’ve strayed off-topic.

“Calling you down is because you, ha, ha, ha…” Mandy pointed at Hardock’s face, momentarily forgetting the other’s name.

Luckily, this was not the first time, and Hardock, smiling, said, “Just call me Hardock, madam.”

“Yes, you Uncle Hardock,” Mandy said, tilting her head lazily to Hevnia, “Your Uncle Hardock and our Hailuo family have had generational ties, and with your father not home, you naturally need to come down and reciprocate properly, that’s basic etiquette.”

She couldn’t even remember the name, was this really etiquette?

Hevnia thought internally, though she did not voice it.

The Hailuo Family didn’t hold much regard for the Treell Family, or else Hevnia’s father wouldn’t have had the foolish Mandy receive Hardock.

Allowing Mandy to sit in the main seat was itself a declaration of attitude.

This was clear to everyone present, so Hardock too smiled, not daring to show any resistance.

And since Mandy had shifted the topic to Hardock, Hevnia could finally naturally turn her gaze towards Hardock.

Several gift boxes were piled beside Hardock, looking like they were here to congratulate the Hailuo family on the Seven Notes·Syllable.

But only Hevnia knew why he was really here.

“Uncle Hardock,” Hevnia asked smilingly, “Didn’t Daphne come with you?”

While asking this question, Hevnia kept her gaze fixed on Hardock’s eyes, trying to catch more emotional changes.

But Hardock covered it up very well, even with Bai Wei’s eyes aiding, no flaws could be seen.

“Daphne is resting at home.” Hardock responded with a smile, “After all, the road back from the academy is long; she has been lying down at home for a day.”

Saying this, he paused and then seemed puzzled as he asked.

“Speaking of which, Daphne mentioned before returning that Miss Hevnia was the last to leave school, it was already past midnight, isn’t Miss Hevnia tired?”

Temptation.

An undisguised temptation.

Hevnia was furiously thinking in her mind.

From Hardock’s words, it was clear that as the Family Head, he indeed knew about the operation last night.

But the problem was, since Daphne and the four Players had all been killed by Bai Wei, no message had been relayed back, so he didn’t know what exactly had happened.

However, he couldn’t directly visit the academy to check the situation, as that would undoubtedly be walking into a trap.

Therefore, he had come to the Hailuo Family seeking answers, especially since Hevnia had returned. She was the prey… wait, that’s not right.

Hevnia suddenly realized something.

She wasn’t the Treell Family’s prey; Treell Family’s target was Arianna. Their arrangements were all meant to target Arianna.

That meant, fundamentally, she was separated from Treell Family by a layer. So in case of mishaps, the first person Hardock would suspect should also be the still missing Arianna.

Looking at it this way, if Hevnia slightly disguised the time of her return, like saying she had returned in the afternoon and didn’t know what happened at night, then could she…

“Yes, she arrived home almost at dawn.” ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

But at this moment, Mandy, while yawning, lazily said,

“The coachman only picked her up in the early morning, and after a night of travel, she returned home with a high fever, looking sickly and dirty, with her clothes torn as if she had rolled in the snow several times… Really, not ladylike at all.”

Mandy’s sudden remark caused a change in both Hevnia and Hardock’s expressions.

Hevnia’s expression was one of surprise and annoyance.

The surprise was because she didn’t know her state when she returned last night was so bad! If it really was as Mandy described, wouldn’t that just write “It was me” all over her face?!

Why did Bai Wei have time to gouge out her eyes and tongue, but no time to tidy up her body?

Couldn’t he have given her a bath or some makeup!

Or at the very least changed her clothes!

What kind of after-sales service was this!

And the annoyance was because she shouldn’t have tested this in front of Mandy.

This foolish woman could do nothing but screw things up!

On the other hand, Hardock’s expression had visibly darkened.

He was staring intently at Hevnia, his eyes full of rage and the intent to kill.

After all, from his perspective, it was obvious that Daphne had already met her demise.

Not just Daphne, but also the four Players he sent out, crucial forces of the Treell Family.

Gone, just like that.

A grand gamble by the Treell Family, failed.

For a moment, Hevnia even doubted whether Hardock would throw caution to the wind and directly expose her identity.

Since he was already at a loss, why not drag Hevnia down to Hell with him.

Fortunately, before she entered the house, Hevnia had already prepared for this.

She looked at Hardock, her lips slightly parted, and silently mouthed a word.

Hardock, understanding the shape of Hevnia’s lips, was instantly stunned.

Because the word Hevnia had uttered was—”Father”.
