Devin, Rosy, and Haley were of the same generation, so Devin and Rosy wouldn't get any severe punishment even if they were caught harming Haley. Lord Nalan might just scold them.
"Father, what if grandfather finds out..."
Lenny just glanced at them, took a sip of tea, and calmly said, "I'm Haley's uncle. If I personally take any action to harm her, I may be regarded as an unreasonable person. But you are Haley's peers, and it's not surprising for you to do things to get her in trouble. If your grandfather finds out, he might just believe that you are still kids doing some silly things. He will not punish you."
Devin and Rosy looked at each other and understood what their father meant.
Lenny was a man who cared about his reputation. He wouldn't personally harm the younger members of the Nalan clan, So he had to let his children do the dirty work.
Lenny was satisfied with his son and daughter, and they were capable of doing this. Besides, he could also take this opportunity to train them.
"Father, trust us. We won't disappoint you this time, "
Promised Rosy with a smile.
Lenny patted her on the shoulder and said, "Hmm. I believe in you, my dear daughter."
"I won't let you down, too, "
Said Devin, seeming to fear that Rosy would be in their father's good graces before he got any chance.
"Hmm." Lenny also patted Devin on the shoulder to encourage him.
Lenny believed that he should not bother himself with small matters if he wanted to accomplish great things, and that being kind to the enemy meant being cruel to himself. At the beginning, he didn't care about Haley coming into the Nalan clan.
He just thought that the Nalan clan had received one more member who would live with them. After all, the Nalan clan was big and wealthy. It was not a big deal to afford another granddaughter.
But now, Haley posed a threat to both his position and his property. He would surely try every means to eliminate her.
"To achieve our aim, I want to meet with Sarah first. I believe that she will cooperate with us, " said Rosy, after a few seconds of thought.
"Okay. You can carry out this matter yourself, and you can deal with Haley with your own ideas and methods. I won't meddle in it for now."
After Rosy and Devin left Lenny's place, they went back to their own places.
When Rosy returned to her own garden, she called Jessie and told her to come over.
She thought she should discuss this matter with her good friend.
At this moment, Jessie was staying with her sworn father. Her sworn father was annoyed because she received Rosy's call and had to go to Rosy's place.
Jessie then went to Rosy's place. Somehow, she was becoming increasingly tired of her sworn father.
She only thought of him when she wanted to buy something. She was unwilling to meet him if she didn't need his money.
