Chapter 490 Visiting nobles (6)

Since we had been exposed, there was no walking around secretly anymore.

We went back to the carriage and drove back to Viscount Teomold's manor.

After arriving, it took no time at all for Viscount Teomold to come find us and we gathered in the same living room as before.

Before we even sat down, Viscount Teomold quickly bowed his head and said, "Count Zwein, I must apologize for what happened in my territory."

I was surprised to see that he would apologize so easily, but then again, this was someone who was shameless and spineless...It shouldn't be strange that he would apologize as soon as he saw me.

In fact, it would be strange if he didn't.

I just gave a nod before asking, "What happened afterwards."

Viscount Teomold couldn't help jolting when he heard this.

He knew that I wasn't accepting his apology yet.

The fact that I was asking about this made it clear that I wanted to see how he would handle this. Only after seeing what he said would there be a chance that I would accept this.

So he took a deep breath and said, "We have already captured the ones that threatened your lordship and will ensure that this never happens again. As for the woman that was bothered, we have already made the proper arrangements for her."You can trace the roots of this content at n0v@lbin

I slightly knitted my brows when I heard this.

After all, not in a single word did I hear his intentions to punish the rogues that had caused this mess.

It was clear that he was planning on letting this matter go, sweeping it under the rug in a manner of speaking.

However, I didn't have the same idea.

Viscount Teomold's expression turned even uglier when he heard this.

After all, he really never expected me to be this forceful.

Seeing that he was hesitating, I said, "If this is your sincerity, then I guess there's no need for us to talk about cooperating."

As soon as my voice fell, I made to stand up and leave.

There had been a shocked look on Viscount Teomold's face, but he didn't have time to be shocked when he saw me leave.

He quickly came forward and said, "Your lordship, there's no need to act this way. I'll make sure that they are punished for their crimes. I'll make sure that they are executed."

I stopped moving and looked right at Viscount Teomold.

When he saw my gaze looking right at him, he couldn't help shaking a bit and turning his gaze away slightly as if he was afraid to match my gaze.

After looking at him like this for a bit, I suddenly said, "I expect them to be executed before I leave in two days. If they aren't, then there's no need to discuss our cooperation anymore."

Viscount Teomold once again looked at me in shock and disbelief, as if he couldn't believe that I would be this decisive with my words.

He opened and closed his mouth several times like he wanted to say something, but he just couldn't say what he wanted to say when he saw the look in my eyes.

The look I gave him was firm and cold, as if I would broker no argument.

The expression on his face changed several times during all of this before he finally said with a defeated look, "I will make sure that it happens."

I suddenly revealed a smile when I heard this and said, "It seems that you do have your sincerity. Then I look forward to working with you."

Viscount Teomold looked like he was exhausted, but he forced a smile out onto his face when he heard this.

In a tired voice he said, "Of course, I look forward to working with you as well, Count Zwein."
