However, Sarah was unaware of the fact that there were just as many beautiful women in the rural areas as in the city.
Sarah and Philip who was carrying Joey in his arms walked into the village head’s house, they saw a young girl pouring wine for John Walter at the dinner table.
She was a pretty oval-faced girl of medium height. With her big eyes and rosy lips, her facial features were very delicate. She was kneeling next to John Walter.
Her skin was white with a hint of red. Unlike women in the city who tend to beautify their skin with foundation and blush, the village girl didn’t wear any makeup. But still her skin was flawless and healthy.
She was really a beautiful girl, a piece of uncarved jade.
She was wearing an apricot robe, just like any other villagers. It was no doubt that she was a teenage girl who had been born and raised in the Village of Giant Salamanders. She was no more than fifteen or sixteen years old.
Sarah heart sunk at the sight of the girl.
She had always been instinctively sensitive to women around John Walter. She instantly knew that the young girl showed up here at this time for a reason.
Standing three meters away from the newly-arrived guests, Lewis immediately greeted them with a big smile on his face. He pointed at the other dinner table with many dishes on it, “Ladies, please have a seat. Who is this gentleman?”
He was apparently slower than Sam. It took him a minute to notice that Philip was a stranger here.
“He’s my friend.”
Sarah answered drily. Her eyes were locked on the young village girl who was sitting next to John Walter.
“Welcome. Why don't you join the ladies at this table?”
Lewis found nothing odd about it. He insisted that Philip sit with Sarah and Joey at the other table. Obviously he didn’t want them to bother John Walter and the village girl.
But Sarah ignored him. She asked Philip to sit with Joey at the other table. She just sat down in front of John Walter with a cold face and stared at the pretty village girl.
John Walter’s face suddenly darkened when Philip walked into the room with Joey in his arms. He stared at Philip’s hands with angry eyes. It was annoying that Joey was lying in his arms like a sweet kitten. His right hand tightened around the knife.
Suddenly, he lost control over it and the knife accidentally cut his palm. His hand was bleeding.
