Stunning Edge

Chapter 42- Actually This Is The Most Shameful

“The small shameless person brought a big shameless person and wants this sword back!” Once Lashia heard this she became furious, suppressing her anger as she faced the nearby cold-faced Claire.

“Indeed it’s shameless.” Claire said insipidly. She didn’t really want to deal with clans’ clash of interests; it was enough to let Grandfather deal with those. But if they thought Claire was easy to bully, then they were gravely mistaken.

“Jean, come over here.” A thin, cold smile emerged from the corner of Claire’s mouth. She turned towards Jean who was behind her and beckoned with her finger.

“Miss?” Although Jean had an inquiring tone of voice, inwardly, he knew crystal clearly that every time a smile surfaced on Miss’s face, someone was out of luck.

“Do this… like this… yes, right, just like that.” After Claire quietly finished explaining, Jean’s brow raised. Currently, he really wanted to laugh, but it would be better if he suppressed it so the people inside the grand hall wouldn’t hear. Walter didn’t have to worry about this, so he started laughing an earth-shaking wahaha in Claire’s head. Too devious, later he must write a book and call it Eighteen Deceiving Strategies of a Little Devil.

“Lashia, come with me, let’s go to the training area.” Claire turned and faced Lashia.

Lashia smiled like a flower while she was inwardly feeling peeved why she hadn’t thought of this great method.

Claire and Lashia didn’t go through the grand hall and instead went around from the back, directly going to the training grounds.

Once the two people were gone, Jean’s expression changed into grief and indignation. Alright, Jean couldn’t help but admit, this expression really made him feel a bit uncomfortable. At the entrance, he practiced for two full minutes, and finally, he had an expression barely qualifying as extreme grief and indignation.

And like so, Jean entered the grand hall, rushing right to the Duke Gordon who was sitting at the top of the hall, and reported with grief and indignation, worry written all over his face, “Your Grace, something happened! First miss and second miss…”

“What? What happened? What happened to Claire and Lashia?” Duke Gordon stood up in fright and surprise. If it was about anyone else, Gordon would have rebuked his servant’s emotional attitude. But Gordon had never seen Jean look so grieved and worried. Even if he just used his butt to think, he knew that something big must have happened! Claire’s place in Gordon’s heart had become very important; he could never let anything happen to her. Lashia was arrogant, but still very strong, and could not be hurt either! Did the conflict between the two sisters escalate and result in something big?

“Your Grace, today, first Miss ran into someone who challenged her, inviting her to a duel while insulting the Hill family as much as possible. First Miss was furious and accepted the duel. Although she won, first Miss was still angry that someone would insult the Hill family like that, and she blamed it on herself, that she was not powerful enough. So now she is practicing like crazy with second Miss, fighting in the training ground. Practicing like this without limit, your servant is afraid that first Miss’s body won’t be able to handle all this.” Jean’s emotions and tone were very complex, sometimes slow and sometimes fast, sometimes grieved and sometimes worried. He had never said so many words with such emotion and intensity. If Walter was here, he would have exclaimed that the honest handsome knight has been brought astray by little devil Claire.

“What!!!” Duke Gordon’s expression became serious and he stood up suddenly, rushing to the backyard without caring about Sir Roman anymore. Jean also hurried after Duke Gordon.
