Chapter 23: The Real Duel

At dawn the next day, Ethan got up early.

Because Angelina was so crazy last night, she fell into a deep sleep.

Ethan didn't wake her up and gently got up and dressed.

He didn't like the bulky and bloated clothes of the nobles, so he still wore his original swordsman uniform.

He picked up the signed duel book on the desk, picked up his sword, and quietly went out.

On the way to the front lawn, waiters kept saying hello to him.

Ethan could see their hypocrisy and disliked them, but after all, they greeted them with smiles, so he could only smile innocently in return.

Ethan smiled falsely all the way until he was sitting by the fountain with no one around, and then Ethan stopped smiling.

"Sure enough, I can't adapt to this environment. Being a human being is really tiring." Ethan muttered in his heart.

"After today, your hypocrisy will turn into fear, because I, Ethan, dare to kill even the guardian knight."

"Look at how dare you do evil to my fiancée in the future."

"But it's a pity, we have to leave soon."

…

Ethan thought as he waited for Angus to arrive.

But after waiting left and right, the other party was nowhere to be seen.

When Angelina woke up, she found that Ethan was gone.

"Damn it! How could you forget such an important thing?"

Knowing that Ethan was going to duel, he quickly dressed up and went downstairs to find Ethan.

But when they got there, they saw Ethan sitting by the fountain bored.

"Ethan! Is the duel over?" Angelina walked up to Ethan and asked.

Ethan spread his hands: "That Angus knight has a big voice, but he is very timid."

"In my impression, he is not such a person." Angelina sat next to Ethan and waited with him.

But the result is still the same. I wait and wait, but no one is there. Lunch time is almost here.

"This bastard made me wait all morning in vain. I didn't even eat breakfast!" Ethan sighed: "I guess he won't come. Let's go! Let's have lunch first. After that, I'll go to his house to look for him today. He must die!"

"Ah!" Angelina was shocked: "He has already given up. There is no need for this!"

"What does it have to do with me that he surrenders?" Ethan said innocently: "I just want him to die. Let's go and eat first!"

Angelina was speechless for a moment and quietly followed Ethan to the restaurant.

While the two were eating lunch, Sophia also came and sat directly opposite them, with a gloomy look on her face.

"I heard that you are going to Knight Angus's house later?"

After hearing this, Ethan, who was immersed in eating, raised his head, looked around, and stared coldly at the maids around him, trying to see which one had the long tongue to pass the message.

The maids in the restaurant were all trembling when they were stared at by Ethan's cold eyes, especially one petite maid, whose lips began to tremble.

Seeing that the target had been determined, Ethan lowered his head without saying a word and continued eating.

Sophia frowned: "They are all members of the Lawson family. If anything happens, please tell me. This is normal!"

Ethan had almost finished eating, wiped his mouth slowly with a napkin, and then threw the napkin on the table.

"It's normal! I said it in front of them on purpose. It's just what I want them to tell you. I just want to see who it is, so considerate!

To be honest, I don’t like people around me who can’t control their mouths. "

As soon as these words came out, the petite maid's body trembled even more.

Sophia glanced at the maid and motioned for her to go down first, and then said slowly: "You are very capable of serving as a servant. You can establish prestige with just one look, one action, or one word.

But threats are always the worst method. "

"As long as they are not your subordinates, then there is no problem. And I think threats are the most direct method. Right!" Ethan smiled: "Especially those subordinates who think they are right, once you give them a good look, he will Dare to shit on your head, like that Angus knight.

I don't understand, why do you stop a duel between men?

I was so angry that I wasted a precious morning. "

"You and Knight Angus are both very precious talents in the family." Sofia leaned on the high-backed chair, twirling her hair with her fingers, and said angrily: "I don't want any of you to be hurt.

For this reason, I will not hesitate to destroy the spirit of chivalry and prevent this duel.

And you should be able to see that I am biased towards you.

But since you have already guessed the reason, why do you still want to embarrass me? "

Ethan smiled disdainfully: "When I talked to you yesterday, I felt that you were not only ambitious and extremely controlling, but also extremely self-righteous.

Please understand that whether you are embarrassed or not and who you want to control are all your business and have nothing to do with me.

What qualifications do you have to disrupt a duel between men?

Also, are you partial to me?

No!

You just find it harder to convince me and, for now, you think I'm worth more than Angus.

Everything you do is just your self-righteousness.

If you're going to be embarrassed, you're definitely asking for it. "

"Okay!" Sophia's tone has turned cold: "I was very optimistic about you and didn't want to interfere with your personal affairs, but since you want to die, I won't stop you. Just do as you please!"

After saying that, Sofia quickly stood up, glanced at Angelina coldly, then turned and left.

Angelina was stared at by her sister, her whole body was cold, and she lowered her head silently, like a child who had made a mistake.

After Sophia left, she dared to raise her head. After hesitating for a while, she said to Ethan: "Ethan, forget it! My sister is right. Both of you are important talents in the family.

It will not be good for the family if anyone gets into trouble."

Ethan gently stroked Angelina's head and comforted her: "Hearing what you said, I will kill that Knight Angus even more.

I will let you see with your own eyes that obedience can only be like a dog, and only resistance can bring benefits!

Don't look at your sister's bad attitude now. After I cut off Angus's head, you will see her attitude again. I believe that it will open your eyes."

Angelina didn't understand what Ethan said at all, but seeing Ethan's firm attitude, she could only suppress her uneasiness and nodded in agreement.

After dinner, Ethan got on the carriage and rushed to Knight Angus's house. He didn't take Angelina with him, but just let her wait at home.

Angelina was very obedient and stood at the gate of the manor waiting for Ethan to return.

This wait lasted from noon to evening.

Maybe she was too obedient. Since she sent Ethan to the horse, she has been standing there, motionless, like a statue.

At this time, there was a sunset glow in the sky, as red as blood.

Angelina saw that Ethan had not returned for a long time, and she had a bad premonition in her heart, and tears could not stop falling.

"Angus's house is not far from here, and it can't be far. Ethan hasn't come back for so long, I guess..."

Just when Angelina was desperate, a carriage slowly returned in the sunset.

When he arrived at the gate of the manor, Ethan got off the carriage with a head that had dried up blood.

Seeing Angelina crying, Ethan was shocked: "Who bullied you!"
