Chapter 431: The Key To The Great Library
“That’s right. Antonio and I are doing that so that Watson can interact more with the noblemen and expand his network in the kingdom for the future. As for waking him up, we’re doing it so that he can seize the time to go to the Royal Academy to train and avoid slacking off. Everything is for his own good,” Reid said.Samuel nodded.
“Master!”
At that moment, Watson’s tender voice came from behind Reid. He could not help but tremble as he turned his head. He saw Watson behind him, and his eyebrows twitched. He was staring at him with a strange expression as if he was trying to hold back something.
“Watson, what’s wrong? Did the two ladies who just entered your room do something to make you angry?”
“They did not make me angry. On the contrary, Master, I can’t accept what you’re doing right now! Didn’t I tell you yesterday that I would not see anyone no matter who came? It’s fine if you did not want to help, but why did you take the initiative to send an outsider into my room?”
“Antonio and I weren’t too clear about that. Who did you tell? ”
“Senior Samuel.”
“Samuel, what’s wrong with you? Did Watson tell you that he was tired and could not see any guests? Why did you let so many people in? Apologize to your junior brother.”
Reid frowned and turned to scold Samuel, who was holding the two holy relics. He was stunned. He was at a loss. Reid gave him two holy relics to force him to agree. Why did he blame him?
“Master Reid, Master Antonio, please postpone the quarrel between you guys! I brought the members of the Saint Laurent family here because I had something important to tell Watson. Time is limited. Can you let us talk to Watson first?”
After watching for a while, among the many nobles waiting in front of Reid, the leader, an old woman wearing a veil and a purple dress, laughed and interrupted Reid’s reprimand of Samuel. In their eyes, that time, it was clearly Reid and Antonio who had used Watson to receive a wave of gifts. However, after Watson discovered them, they did not want to bear Watson’s anger, so they could only blame Samuel.
None of that was important to them. What was important was that after the competition yesterday, the head of the Saint Laurent family, the old woman in front of him, asked his subordinates to investigate Watson’s matter. According to their investigations, they had really found some important things, forcing them to come to the Sword Saint’s courtyard to see Watson.
“Madam Ophelia, what you said makes sense.” Antonio nodded to the old woman in front of him, then looked at Watson. “Watson, let’s put our matters aside for now. This is Madam Ophelia. She is the current head of the Saint Laurent family. She came to see you today because she has something very important to tell you. The room has been prepared. The two of you can have a good chat.”
“Yes, Master.”
Watson agreed. He sized up the woman named Ophelia. Through the veil, he could still see a trace of familiarity on her face. At the same time, the way Ophelia looked at him made him feel warm.
Was it because they shared the same blood?
Watson could not help but think about that. He knew that his father, Edward Garry, had committed some unforgivable sin, so he was expelled from the Saint Laurent family and was exiled to the border, and that old woman in front of him was very likely to be his father’s relative.
Watson had a vague guess as to what the Saint Laurent family’s head wanted to talk to him about. Under Samuel’s lead, they came to an empty room in the Sword Saint’s courtyard. There were more than ten experts from the Saint Laurent family guarding outside.
