With that said, she sighed and added, “Well, Mr. Jothurn, there are two paths for us to take now. We can either find out exactly how Vera left Northern Europe or find out how the Armed Calvary Guards we sent disappeared in Northern Europe. I’ll be generous and let you pick one out of the two paths first.”
The man in the driver’s seat was Mr. Jothurn, one of the four great earls of the Qing Eliminating Society. His name was Brody Orlen.
Brody caressed the steering wheel, pursed his lips, and said, “Ladies first. I’ll let you pick first, Miss Dijo!”
After saying that, he could not help but tease, “Miss Dijo, don’t forget about me if you can become Marchioness Dijo or Lady Excellency Dijo in the future!”
The woman in the passenger seat was Ruby Chain, who was also known as Miss Dijo, one of the four great earls.
Although Ruby was a female, she was very strong and had fought for the British Lord in the early years. Therefore, the British Lord had appointed her as Miss Dijo, and she was the only female among the four great earls.
The British Lord had originally established five levels of titles in the Qing Eliminating Society, namely the Lord Excellency, Marquis, Earl, Viscount, and Baron. However, since the Lord Excellency and Marquis were high-ranking and important positions, these titles had been set up in the Qing Eliminating Society, but no one had ever been given these titles.
Aside from the British Lord, there were four great earls in the Qing Eliminating Society, but the British Lord had also promised that he would make the person who found Vera and the ring a marquis immediately, and that person would get whatever he wanted.
Once that person became a marquis, he would have the opportunity to choose a place in the world as his own fiefdom and cultivate his own forces within his own fiefdom. At the time, the marquis would only need to obey and report to the British Lord when he was needed and would have freedom at other times.
Ruby smiled in a self-deprecating manner and said, “I will never be awarded the title of a marchioness even if I can really find Vera and the ring as the British Lord has asked.”
Brody said with a smile, “Why? Are you afraid that the British Lord will be shocked by your achievements?”
