The Prince Who Was Raised in Hell novel Chapter 21

“What?” Lucas and Fabian exclaimed when they heard the steward.

There was horror in their eyes, and they felt their blood freeze as their hands and feet turned cold.

They were responsible for fetching Nana over.

They were the only ones who knew about Nana’s death.

Hence, who was the master who suddenly popped out and entered the Lawrence Manor before they did?

They were afraid their plans were leaked, and someone already made the first move before them!

However, the Lawrence family’s steward soon continued, “The person proposing marriage to the head of the family is Evergreen Town’s Yates family’s little genius, Harold Yates.

Harold’s a match made in heaven for our Lady Jessica.

Do you think the b*stard that you found is a match for her?”

Steward Lawrence sneered at them repeatedly as he swept his scornful and taunting gaze across them.

Even though he was only a first-stage True Martial Realm, he was from the direct lineage of the Lawrence family and a true descendant of the Lawrence family.

Hence, he could naturally arrogantly order around and unscrupulously blame the two servants, Lucas and Fabian, as they had different surnames.

Just because of that, Lucas could only hold back the anger in his heart as he asked, “Steward Lawrence, we’re only acting on the Old Master’s order, and now we’re reporting the completion of our mission.

Aren’t you going to let us in?”

“Wow! Are you using the Old Master to bully me? Do I need you to educate me on what the Old Master wants?” The mocking smile on Steward Lawrence’s face deepened.

Lucas and Fabian felt their scalps tingled, and they did not dare to say anything more.

Then, Steward Lawrence arrogantly informed them, “Well, I might as well let you know that the Old Master had an enlightenment half a month ago, and he retreated to break through the peak of the second stage of the Pulse Control Realm.

However, he has yet to come out.

Hence, all affairs regarding the clan will be handled jointly by the head of the family and the elders.”

“The Old Master is breaking through the peak second-stage of the Pulse Control Realm?” When they heard the news, Lucas and Fabian were excited.

Stefan, who stood on the side, was shocked.

On their journey here, Lucas explained to Fiona that the Pulse Control Realm had three stages, and each stage had an entry, mid and peak levels.

Getting up another level would be extremely hard for an ordinary cultivator as it required perseverance, wisdom, and luck.

Even though the Lawrence family was one of the prominent families in Evergreen Town.

There were only five Pulse Control Realm cultivators among the 3000 family members, who were the Old Master, George Lawrence, the head of the family, James Lawrence, and three elders.

Among them, George was at the highest realm, which was the second stage of the Pulse Control Realm.

If he successfully broke through the peak of the second stage, his strength would significantly increase, and this would also be an obvious aid to the Lawrence family’s status in Evergreen Town.

Although it was a matter that was worth celebrating, George’s absence at that moment was not beneficial for Fiona and the others.

Looking at Lucas and Fabian’s excitement, Steward Lawrence sneered, “That’s right.

This is a significant thing for everyone in the Lawrence family, and we can’t let any accident happen.

The Yates family is naturally here because they attached great importance to our Lawrence family due to this matter.

Hence, they purposely came over to propose marriage, hoping to marry Lady Jessica so that the two families can have a prosperous relationship.”

When he said that, Steward Lawrence looked at Fiona and mocked, “The Yates family is Evergreen Town’s noble family, and its status matches ours.

If the two families are connected by marriage, we can develop our power further in Evergreen Town.

Due to this, the deputy head of the family ordered me to guard the surroundings strictly and prevent any mishap.

Additionally, irrelevant people aren’t allowed to enter, especially, any useless people that try to climb the social ladder!”

Steward Lawrence was directing those words to Stefan, and he was so close to directly poking his finger hard at Fiona’s chest.

Lucas and Fabian’s expressions turned ugly.

Seeing that, Lucas spoke through gritted teeth, “Since we’re not allowed to go in, then we’ll leave first.

We’ll return to report on our mission once the Old Master successfully passes his test.”

Then, Lucas dragged Stefan, and they were ready to leave.

However, Steward Lawrence suddenly shouted with a scornful tone, “Did I say you can leave just because you can’t enter?”
