Chapter 64: Conspiracy
Continue the marriage alliance with the Fairlie Family!?
Calder’s ice-cold blue eyes suddenly seemed to have been quenched with a layer of ice. “I remember that in the family, all the children who enter the top 50 in the competition can choose their own marriage. You don’t have any right to marry Audrey to a fool without my consent.”
The pressure of a superior was instantly revealed, and the malice in Kaki’s eyes could not be concealed. “Patriarch, you’ve said it yourself. As long as she enters the top 50 in the competition, but Audrey hasn’t entered either.”
“Miss Hera is just a spectator. She didn’t participate in this family competition at all,” Houston said coldly, “Alright, Calder, I know you like Audrey very much. Still, the Davis family will benefit more from the marriage alliance.”
“Because of Audrey’s successful transformation, the elder of the Fairlie family is willing to give half of his resources as a betrothal gift to Audrey.
“Our family is currently using these resources. Therefore, this agreement mustn’t be broken. Audrey must marry into the Fairlie family.”
Half of a family’s resources were not a small amount.
The Davis family was huge. Consequently, there were many fighting disciples in the various branches.
The resources of the Davis family had long been in short supply. Now, with the Fairlie family providing their timely assistance, they could even get rid of the good-for-nothing Audrey at the same time. It was simply killing two birds with one stone.
Houston and the Great Clan Elder, Pierre, had long discussed the allocation of resources. However, they had not bothered telling Calder about this matter.
In any case, Audrey was just a good-for-nothing. A good-for-nothing did not have any right to speak.
However, they had never expected that one day, the good-for-nothing would be able to turn things around. However, how could they watch as the clan leader position, which was within their grasp, once again belonged to Calder?
Therefore, Audrey was already betrothed, and she had to marry.
Use the resources?
Calder had never thought that they would be so shameless. Not to mention how many years he had contributed to the Davis family, but in terms of contributions, he was no less than the others…
They actually treated his daughter this way!
“Calder, we hope that you can understand one thing. First, you are the patriarch of the Davis family, and then you are Audrey’s father.
“We understand the difficulties of being a father, but this isn’t a reason for you to shirk your responsibilities as the patriarch.”
What was the use of Audrey’s talent?
As the daughter of the family’s patriarch, she was bound to become a sacrifice of the family.
Houston looked at Calder, whose face was pitch black, with pity.
“I don’t care what kind of benefits you want from the Fairlie family. As long as none of this was approved by me, Audrey will not marry into the Fairlie family.” Calder’s cold and hard voice was as heavy as lead. He almost could not face his daughter, who was in the limelight on the competition stage.
“I don’t care who used these things. Our Davis family can afford these things as well. Audrey’s ability to accept the invitation of the Templar Knights was already sufficient proof of Audrey’s strength. Houston, if they aren’t yours, don’t even think about taking them.”
Calder adjusted his state of mind. He looked coldly at Houston and his pitiful daughter. “I hope that all of you can understand that before the change of patriarch, I, Calder, will still be the patriarch of the Davis family. So if there’s anything that you don’t like, meet me in the arena.”
At the same time, waves of cheers accompanied Calder’s voice.
“Audrey!”
“Miss Audrey is really amazing!”
The referee finally signaled the end of the match. “Audrey Davis wins!”
Another wave of cheers seemed to drown Audrey.
Hera looked at Audrey in surprise, and her interest grew even more when she saw that Audrey did not smile.
This Audrey… is indeed different.
At this moment, Audrey was calculating in her heart. It would take a lot of time to fight them one by one.
Attacking them all at once would make it easier.
This would enable her to impress her father.
She had already given her family face by communicating with these juniors. Audrey raised her hand toward the referee.
