Otherworldly Clouds

Chapter 45 The Confrontation of the Two Families (1)
When Argu heard his father's question, he frowned slightly and said: "I remember that in the first few years in Roja City, I have been laughing at that Miss Locket for a while. From the attitudes and reactions of their family children, I think that maybe this girl Even members of their family don’t know about their talents.”

Ella nodded in satisfaction: "Yes, the report clearly states that since the girl was born, Cassie has never wanted to see her. She has been taken care of by a maid, and has moved to a small courtyard farthest from the manor. , In this way, the chances of people in their family seeing this girl will be greatly reduced, and it is not very difficult for a girl who is not welcomed by the family to secretly hide some special things about herself."

"My lord father, what should we do now? If we find her, the Locket family will definitely notice this girl with rare talent, which may not be good for our family!" Argu said solemnly.

Hearing Argu's words, Ella smiled lightly, and the shrewdness in his eyes immediately made his gentler face a bit sinister. He looked at Algu and said, "Argu, your cultivation Talent is indeed a rare genius in our family, and even the ancestors are full of praise, but you are still too young when it comes to some conflicts of interests and political scheming. Do you think that a little girl who has been ignored by the family for so many years Living a hard life with a maid, and even being bullied by the children of other families under the acquiescence of the elders, will she still be loyal to the family like this? Have a good impression? The kind of resentment accumulated in the past ten years is not so easy to eliminate. hehe!"

As soon as Argu heard it, he immediately understood, and he suddenly said: "My lord father means..."

"Go to the door and ask the Lockett family to give us an explanation. The children of our Cohen family cannot die in vain. How can such a genius be buried by her? The Lockett family seems to have been calm for a long time. Hehe, I really want to see Look, how will they deal with this matter?" Ella picked up the exquisite wine in front of her, took a sip, and the smile on her face became more and more cunning.

Argu also smiled and said: "If the Lockett family gives up, then a genius is doomed to be killed, and our Cohen family will lose a strong enemy. If they want to protect that girl, then our family will not let it go. In addition Regardless of the outcome of this matter, if our family makes a scene like this, that girl will also receive the attention of various forces in Roja City. You must know that there are indeed many geniuses on this continent, but not many of them can really grow up. Unless he has an unshakable background, my lord, Argu has been taught."

Ella nodded with satisfaction: "Let's go! It's time for us to visit the Lockett family."

At this time, the Lockett family was having the same conversation. After reading the report, Casey’s face could not dissipate the shock for a long time, while the other two in the living room, Gru and Dikla, were respectively Casey. Xi's second and third younger brothers, their faces were no less shocked than Casey's.

Dikla muttered to himself: "Didn't the physical examination back then say that he was a waste who could not practice anything? Now, a magician with dual elements of water and fire? What's going on?"

Gru looked at Dikla, who was a little dazed, and said dissatisfied: "What's the use of saying this now? The Coen family will not let go of any opportunity to attack our family. I think we still need to prepare early for this matter." .”

Casey's face was a little ugly, and after hearing the words of his two younger brothers who had always been at odds with him, his handsome face turned blue because he thought of the agreement back then: "It's a pity! Such a young Geniuses don't belong to our Locket family, if there hadn't been that incident back then, perhaps our Locket family would have become the largest family in the kingdom in a few decades."

After listening to Casey's words, Gru and Dikla's complexions also turned ugly. Indeed, since that incident happened, the little girl who was abandoned can no longer be regarded as a member of the Lockett family. understandable.

However, Gru seemed to still hold some hope and said: "In any case, she has the blood of our Lockett family in her body, maybe it's too late to make up for it!" Even he himself lacked confidence in these words.

Dikla sneered, because Gru's dissatisfaction with him before gave him a reason to attack: "Make it up? How to make it up? My second brother, if you were forgotten by the family for nearly ten years, would you still treat me? Does this family have a good impression? If Eve really had feelings for this family, she would not have kept it from the family for so many years. It seems that the elder brother really gave birth to a good daughter! I know that a few years ago, the children of the family There are quite a few people who bully her, but I don't see how much she reacts, this kind of forbearance is not something everyone can do!" Dikla's words were not without ridicule, and he was attacking the second brother. At the same time, he did not forget to drag the eldest brother into the water.

As soon as Dikla's words came out, the originally unattractive faces of Casey and Gru became even more gloomy. Casey looked at Dikla, who was a little complacent, with a slight mocking arc on his mouth: "Yes, my daughter is indeed She is excellent, but unfortunately, she is no longer a member of our Locket family. If the third brother appreciates this girl, he can choose to protect her. I think that big man in the empire may be very satisfied, but the Cohen family Let the troubles be solved by you, dear third brother!"

Gelu also gloated a little and said, "That's right, I think what Eldest Brother said makes sense, Third Younger Brother can think about it."

Dikla, who had a complacent face, immediately sank his face, and he said angrily: "I solve it? Why should I solve it? Besides, she is no longer a member of our family, and it is not my turn to solve it." I, the elder brother, father asked you to take care of all the housework temporarily, how do you plan to deal with this matter?"

Casey said indifferently: "The Cohen family will not give up this opportunity to suppress us, and there is no need for us to go to war for someone who is not a member of the family. Cleaned up, and we have nothing to lose, what do you think of this trick of borrowing a knife to kill the third brother?" As expected of the first heir of the Lockett family, he kicked this trouble out with a few words, but how did he know, not long after , when he thinks back on everything that happened today and the choices he made, his heart is full of regret. Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in this world.

Casey's words made everyone think deeply. Just when the living room fell into silence, someone from outside reported: "Three adults, the head of the Cohen family, Mrs. Ella, is asking to see you outside the door."

When the three of Casey heard this, they all frowned, and then the heir who temporarily took care of all the housework took a deep breath, waved his hand and said, "Let's go! What should come is always to be taken over, and my lord father is at the moment You don’t need to bother the old man with these things.”
