352: Chapter 171: The Minister Has Decided That You Will Serve as the Brand Ambassador 352: Chapter 171: The Minister Has Decided That You Will Serve as the Brand Ambassador Facing Austin’s threats, Wayne was not at all flustered, he was just curious about who had betrayed him.
The hotel registration list, or was there a traitor within the team?
“What, have you been having too much fun these days to speak?” Austin scoffed repeatedly.
“There’s more than one bedroom in the suite, and I didn’t arrange the accommodations, the innocent are clear of guilt, I can only say that although the secretary is good, she’s not one ten-thousandth of what Veronica is, still a virgin, and nothing happened.” Wayne stated truthfully.
Austin certainly didn’t believe this nonsense; tinder and a raging fire in the sa room, how could nothing happen?
If Wayne were indeed pure and innocent, Austin would have to reconsider whether Wayne had the capability to continue the family line.
“I’ve investigated your female secretary, a nun from the Heavenly Father’s Court and a mber of the White Glove Association; her approach towards you is definitely not with good intentions.” Austin reminded.
“I know.”
Wayne agreed deeply, more than not with good intentions, it was clear she was out for blood.
“Knowing this, you still keep her by your side?”
“There’s no choice, as the heir of the Lando Family, even if I stand still, all sorts of won will actively approach ; a nun from the Heavenly Father’s Court has a background that makes her suitably useful as a shield.”
Wayne seriously spouted nonsense: “Not to hide it from you, I learned this tactic from you.”
“What does this have to do with ?”
Austin refused to be dragged into the mire; if this were proven true, it was not he who had leverage over Wayne, but Wayne who had leverage over him.
“All along, the rumors have been saying gan is your lover, your secretary, and you’ve never denied it.”
Wayne shrugged.
Speaking of a ssy private life, Austin was famously a playboy, having bedded won enough to circle the financial district.
The fact that as an heir he hadn’t completely copied Austin’s behavior was already comndable.
Austin scowled, unwilling to explain anything about this matter and simply stated, “Rumors stop with the wise, believing everything will only harm you; my teacher is not a forgiving person, and the fact that I am still alive explains everything.”
“Oh, so you’re saying the teacher is petty, jealous, and unreasonable!”
“…”
Austin: (눈皿눈)
Like always, if there was no other choice, trash belonged in a concrete barrel.
“One last thing, why did the business deal succeed?
It shouldn’t have been possible for you to succeed.”
Austin was puzzled; he couldn’t understand why the representative of the Albert Steel Company, which stood for Luzelbourg, would choose Wayne at all.
This was dirty money, uncomfortable to handle.
“Regarding that, I don’t understand either, perhaps it was luck, or maybe personal charm…”
“Tell the truth!”
Austin interrupted firmly, “You are the family heir, the family cos first, then the heir; even if you beco the head of the household, it’s still the family first, then the master.”
Austin’s point was simple; Wayne had too many secrets, and secrets ant unknowns.
As the head of the family, he allowed Wayne to have secrets but not allow those secrets to drag the family into an abyss.
Wayne pondered for a mont, about to spill a concocted reason, but seeing Austin’s grave expression, he sighed, “I have repelled the Devil twice in succession, and the Heavenly Father’s Court believes I have great potential, trying by all ans to recruit , this business deal is their way of extending an olive branch.”
That was as much as Wayne could disclose; reincarnated angels were too outrageous, he found it laughable himself, and Austin hearing this would be laughably absurd.
Austin frowned slightly; the Blood Tyrant of Dragonheart Island, Lundan’s Thousand-Eyed Demon, Wayne was present every ti.
It was understandable for the Heavenly Father’s Court to offer an olive branch; this excuse was barely acceptable.
However…
It certainly wasn’t that simple!
“Wayne, do you have a deal with them?”
“From one side only, so far it’s been them making the concessions.” Wayne added, “Really, I’ve not deceived you, I’ve been trying to get rid of them, but they refuse to give up.”
“Keep your distance from them; the Royal Family has never liked the Holy See.” Austin shook his head and asked no more.
Considering the heir further, his thoughts were quite complex.
Everything was good except for the massive amounts of trouble that ca with him.
He was even more trouble than Austin himself!
“If there was no other choice…”
Austin held the Ancient Silver Coin, rubbed his temples; he would have acted more decisively at the start if he had known it would be so troubleso; he should have put the trash in a concrete barrel and dumped it in the river.
Now it was too late, he had cut off his own escape; he didn’t know if he had enough paper to clean up after Wayne’s ss.
Austin: (눈皿눈)
“Starting today, don’t leave the Lando Manor without my orders; your residence has been fully renovated, you’re not allowed to go anywhere.”
Wayne shrugged; that suited him fine, he hadn’t been focusing on his training much lately.
“Why aren’t you leaving yet?”
“Dragon Blood hasn’t been decided yet.”
“…”
In the end, the Dragon Blood was split in two; gan brought a new Sealing Bottle, and Wayne and Austin each took half.
They both felt shortchanged.
Austin: Shaless, it was mine to begin with!
Wayne: Petty, these are battle spoils I exchanged for my life!
————
Carrying his briefcase, Wayne arrived at the Randao Family’s new ho, located beside the main building, with a well-blocked view, a precaution taken to obstruct the view of Veronica’s standalone villa with the main building.
At that ti, Wayne was not yet the heir, and Austin found him displeasing no matter how he looked at him, though it was still the sa now, but after Wayne beca the heir, the layout of the three buildings seed superfluous.
The construction of the young master’s standalone villa officially started at the end of July and was completed in three months; the renovation was tidy and the furniture complete, ready to move in with just a suitcase.
The efficiency was remarkable, sothing a regular renovation team couldn’t achieve, magic must have been used during the construction.
