David paused for a moment, observing the Mrs.Alaric's reaction, but Alaric had run out of patience to wait for an answer and snatched the tablet directly. The large title was very eye-catching:
The House of Owen , a deceptive trick. The daughter of House of Park stayed in the House of Owen overnight.
"Who sent the press release?" No one would dare to disobey his orders unless...
"Yes... The young lady had the media report that Miss Lillian's move in had put her position at risk."
"No position?" The tablet fell on David, landed on the ground, and the screen was crushed by Alaric's foot.
"I've had the message removed..."
Alaric frowned hard, pursed his perfectly thin lips, and said nothing.
Did she stand him up last night and try every possible way to put Lillian in the position of Mr. Alaric's wife today for the sake of divorce?
Diana, don't think I can't cure you!
"Where's the man?"
"The servant said he was called over early in the morning by Mrs. Rosa..."
"Mrs. Rosa?"
……
"Mrs. Rosa, the madam has arrived."
Mrs. Rosa raised her eyes slightly from the mist of the black tea.
I intended to take a look, but then I felt something was amiss and took another look, frowning: "Where did Mr. Alaric's wife's upbringing go? I don't know how to greet you, and what do you look like in this outfit?"
"Grandma, Diana must have just woken up and not had time to change out of her pajamas."
hum
Mrs. Rosa snorted coldly and took a sip of tea.
She glanced again at Diana, who was standing not far away, and was about to speak when Diana interrupted her instead:
"Mrs. Rosa must not have called me here to talk nonsense. Just speak out."
The words were regarded as nonsense, which made Mrs. Rosa so angry that her wrinkles were about to go in by several centimeters. Lillian patted her back very tenderly: "Grandma, just think of it as morning grumbling."
Mrs. Rosa's face changed again, and she gave Diana a fierce gouging look: "I sent you here to inform you that Lillian and Alaric got married yesterday and are both members of the House of Owen. When you grow up, you have to give way to Lillian in everything, you know?"
Diana looked up at Lillian's neck. She had worn a off-the-shoulder dress today, and the ambiguous bluish-purple spots on her neck were clearly visible, without any restraint.
Realizing that Diana was looking at her neck, she deliberately flicked her hair in a way that was both evasive and welcoming.
Sure enough, not only on the neck, but also on the back of the ears and the collarbone.
"Oh, that's all?" Diana pushed her head back lazily and yawned: "What do I take? Mrs. Rosa is old and sleeps lightly. She gets up so early and doesn't think about us young people at all. I'll go back and catch up on sleep first."
"... What's your attitude!" Mrs. Rosa was so angry at her nonchalant attitude that her heart was pounding.
"Why don't you teach me what to do?"
"You!"
"Grandma, don't be angry. I'm not in a hurry, and Alaric hasn't spoken yet. I don't have that qualification..."
"Silly boy, you may not have been qualified before, but you are qualified now, Alaric wants you, maybe you will soon have a child of the House of Owen, then not to mention qualification, just..." Lady Rosa gave Diana a haughty glance and continued:
"Even the position of Mr. Alaric's wife is qualified."
"Grandma, only Alaric has the final say on this matter." Lillian blushed and lowered her head, her face flushed all the way to her ears: "And last night Alaric helped me..."
That's also because I have you in my heart that I help you. Then suddenly glared at Diana: "I heard you sent me the perfume?"
"Yes, I sent it. Is there a problem?" Diana admitted it generously.
"Do you know that there is a ban at the House of Owen, no one is allowed to keep the drug privately, and anyone who violates it will be severely punished! "?"
Since the age of 14 when Alaric was seduced by a maid who tried to seduce him, the House of Owen has made it a rule to keep drugs privately.
Mrs. Rosa slapped the armrest of the sofa hard and said, "Come and catch Mr. And Mrs. Alaric, and beat her with a cane to see if she dares to use it again next time."
The maids rushed forward, and Diana, in a hurry, grabbed a teacup from the coffee table, clanged - and smashed it to the ground, with fragments flying everywhere.
The servants were startled for a moment, and Diana took a little step back, but said calmly, "What's wrong with me sending the incense?"
"It's not wrong to send the incense, but it's your fault to mix in the undecent stuff."
"Adulterated with something improper? It's just an ordinary bottle of perfume. Why so nervous? Mrs. Rosa, the elderly should pay attention to their blood pressure."
"Still trying to deny doping?"
"Ecstasy? Is there any evidence? She sent just ordinary incense. If she said there was a potion, it must have been swapped. Anyway, this kind of thing hasn't happened once or twice...
"Evidence? Lillian is talking about evidence. How could you deny it? What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and tie me up!"
"I see who dares to come over! "?" Diana glanced at the maids, and her fierce gaze froze them, and they dared not take a step forward easily.
"Grandma, forget it. Sister Diana didn't mean it either. I believe she meant well..."
"Good intentions? Silly boy, she was trying to seduce Alaric, but she didn't know that Alaric wanted you last night? For whatever purpose, that thing is..."
"Seduction?" she interrupted with a sneer. As Mrs. Alaric, she needs to seduce her husband? Even if it is, Mrs. Rosa is probably confused. That's called - sex."
"Fun?" Mrs. Rosa seemed to be hearing a joke.
Lillian jumped out: "Sister Diana, how can you talk to grandma like this? You've been with Alaric for three years. If it were you, Alaric wouldn't even touch you. How do you think Alaric will take the bait if you don't seduce? It's said that face is a good thing, Diana, I hope you have it too."
When Lillian said this, her whole body was shaking with rage, looking as if she was defending Mrs. Rosa, so angry that it seemed as if any harsh words would be easily forgiven at this moment.
Diana couldn't hold back her laughter at last, just like a hen whose hair had burst out.
"So I call seduction to my own husband, and you call it a matter of course to Alaric? Miss Lillian is probably too immersed in the role to consider herself as Mr. Alaric's wife."
"I... I didn't... And that perfume was sent by you last night..."
"She will be the young lady of the House of Owen sooner or later. Do you think you can rest for a few more days in the position of Mrs. Alaric?"
Diana fiddled with the ring in her boredom and paid no attention to Mrs. Rosa's words, but said haughtily:
"Mrs. Alaric's place, do you think I care about it? Everyone else regards the Mr. Alaric as a treasure, but I think he is not as good as a blade of grass under my feet. Whoever loves it, take it."
The butler and the maid gasped at Diana's words. Even though they disliked Mr. Alaric, it was too bold to say in front of Mrs. Rosa that the young master was not as good as a blade of grass under her feet.
"Mr. Alaric --"
Suddenly there was a cry from outside the door, and a tall figure was already standing at the door.
