The Man's Decree novel Chapter 1242

Chapter 1242 I Can Guarantee Your Safety

Remembering that the man was there to offer help, Cecilia put away the disgust on her face and forced a smile. “What brings you to Crimson Palace?” she asked.

“You’re as beautiful as the rumors have it, Lady Jingle,” the young man replied with his gaze still locked on Cecilia.

“I’m Angelo Calderon, and I came in response to the announcement you put up, Lady Jingle,” he replied, wiping his watering mouth.

Cecilia’s eyes darkened when she saw his rakish behavior, but she reminded herself to maintain her smile for the sake of soliciting his help.

“Since you came to aid us, I’m sure you’re prepared to face our enemy,” she said.

Cecilia doubted Angelo’s ability to contest Peyton, for one must be formidable to withstand that man and Divine Beast Sect’s power. No ordinary man would dare to challenge Peyton.

“I know what I signed up for. That pervert is nothing. He’ll go on his knees once he sees me. I’m sure he won’t dare set foot at Crimson Palace as long as I’m here,” the man stated confidently as he looked at Cecilia.

“By the way, I hope you live up to your promise once this is over, Lady Jingle,” he added.

Cecilia blushed and bit her lip. “I will deliver my end of the promise as long as you’re able to save Crimson Palace!” she assured.

“Ha! Good. I warrant that nothing will befall Crimson Palace!” Angelo exclaimed, eyeing her lecherously before breaking into a hearty chortle.

“Mr. Calderon, you’d better remember that Divine Beast Sect is behind Peyton. You have to—”

“You don’t have to worry about anything. Even Divine Beast Sect will have to take me seriously once they know who my father is,” Angelo interrupted as he waved his hand dismissively.
