Chapter 883

883 A shocking change

Lady Caitlyn’s lawyer was Milton. He was a middle-aged man in his forties with gray hair, blue eyes, and a pair of curly-framed glasses. He wore a black double-breasted coat and a black velvet top hat. He had a thick mustache, and he held a cane in his hand. A golden watch chain peeked out from his clothes.

Milton had arrived in a black carriage, and the two horses pulling the carriage were also black horses. This person exuded the aura of an ” Elite Lawyer. Milton also had an assistant, a brown-haired woman in her twenties who was also wearing glasses and an old-fashioned, straight dress. The woman held a briefcase and would prop up her glasses from time to time as she followed behind Milton.

After Milton’s arrival, lady cattleen and Xia Pingan came down from the study upstairs.

Milton stood in the living room, and a smile appeared on his face as soon as he saw lady Caitlyn coming down the stairs. He strode over, pulled her hand, and kissed it. Then, he asked, ” Madam, what property do you wish to donate to the temple of domination? ” According to the laws of the rhedron Republic, as long as the temple of God issues a corresponding document to receive the assets, the donated assets can offset part of the agricultural tax of the manor. I have brought you the same model of the donation!”

At this moment, there was nothing strange about lady Milton’s face. Her every move was still elegant and charming, calm and composed, without the slightest hint of nervousness. Xia Pingan felt that this woman was indeed outstanding. It was rare for an ordinary woman to be so calm when she saw someone who wanted to poison her.

After saying this, Milton seemed to have noticed Xia Pingan, who had come down with lady Caitlyn and was standing beside her. my lady, this is Qingqing.

this is my personal chaperon, Xia Pingan. This is my lawyer, Milton law firm’s lawyer! Mrs. Caitlyn introduced the two of them.

Milton gave Xia Pingan a critical look, nodded slightly, and said in a seemingly casual manner, ” what a coincidence. I was just dealing with a lawsuit. Madam, do you know Mrs. Vladi? ”

I know. We talked about it at the Milan Manor during afternoon tea. What’s the matter? ”

Mrs. Vladi is too kind and trusting. A few days ago, she was cheated of more than 50000 Thales by a fortune-teller who came to Corland, and was almost kidnapped. She’s still in the hospital today, so she’d better be careful of those people of unknown origin! This Milton fellow was just short of pointing at Xia Pingan’s nose and calling him a liar.

Milton, Xia Pingan is a guest I invited. I trust him very much, so you’re being too rude! Mrs. Caitlyn said unhappily.

Milton hurriedly apologized. ah, Madam, please forgive me. That’s not what I meant. You know, as lawyers, we always have some occupational habits.

Xia Pingan smiled and didn’t mind at all. Madam, Mr. Milton is right. We do have to be careful of the scammers around us. There are indeed many scammers in the fortune-teller profession, and there are also many scammers in other professions.

Milton took a deep look at Xia Pingan, then looked at lady Caitlyn. my lady, are we going to deal with the relevant documents now? ”

hmm, wait here for a while. I have an appointment with a friend. He’ll be here soon! let’s go, ” Mrs. Caitlyn said softly as she sat down on the sofa.

Xia Pingan and Milton sat on the couches on both sides. Butler NATAS brought a summoned maidservant to serve everyone black tea and desserts. They then stayed in the living room, and the group chatted while drinking black tea.

Milton’s sharp gaze was fixed on Xia Pingan. When he saw Xia Pingan pick up the teacup, a subtle smile appeared on Milton’s face. Mr. Xia Pingan, as a fortune-teller, do you know master ansofar? ”

Director Kevin’s sharp eyes were fixed on the Butler, NATAS. With just a look, two police officers had already quietly approached NATAS.

Xia Pingan was only staring at Milton. Milton’s face still had the perfect amount of surprise, as if he were an outsider. For him to be able to keep his composure at a time like this, Milton was either completely unaware of it, or he was a sly old fox at the level of a Best Actor.

“Madam, do you know who poisoned you?” Director Kevin continued to ask.

Mrs. Caitlin’s eyes were fixed on the Butler, NATAS. I brought Mr. Xia Pingan to the manor today to look for clues. Mr. Xia Pingan has already found an important clue. The one who poisoned me was a dishwasher in the manor’s kitchen. That dishwasher would apply the juice of the girass that had dissolved arsenic on the tableware I used, causing me to be slowly poisoned without me knowing it. That dishwasher is now in the kitchen’s back kitchen, and the poison is hidden under the sink outside the kitchen.

Director Kevin waved his hand, and two police officers immediately went into the kitchen to arrest and search for things.

NATAS’s face had turned completely pale, and his body was trembling like a sieve.

NATAS, I’ve always trusted you. I’ve even left you a part of my inheritance. Even if I die, I won’t leave you alone. It’ll be enough for you to live! Lady Caitlyn looked at her Butler with a sad look. you’re in charge of all the summoning servants in this Manor. You’re the Butler of this Manor. Can you explain to me why the dishwasher in the kitchen would smear poison on my tableware? who told the summoner to do that? ”

my lady! Butler NATAS’s body trembled. He wanted to retreat, but two police officers had already come to his side and clamped him down. They grabbed his hands. The Butler was speechless, but he turned his pleading eyes to Milton and shouted, ” my lady! it’s him! it’s Milton who asked me to do this! he said, ” as long as I do as he says, I’ll take care of this Manor. They’re all mine Yingluo, they’re all my Yingluo!”

Everyone’s eyes turned to Milton.

Milton’s expression first turned from shock to helplessness and calmness. Then, a smile appeared on Milton’s face. He glanced at the Butler, NATAS, in disgust, shook his head, and cursed softly, ” what an idiot. Can’t even take this little pressure, cricket.

Then, Milton looked at lady Caitlyn with the same smile on his face. my lady, you’re lucky this time, and I didn’t think it through. I wanted to solve this matter in a calm way, but I didn’t expect such a problem to occur. Sigh, I should’ve been more direct, Momo.

“Capture him!” Bureau chief Kevin’s chubby face trembled as he let out a furious roar. Two police officers walked towards Milton.

Milton suddenly laughed gloomily, and a strange wave suddenly surged from his body. Xia Pingan’s expression changed drastically, and he shouted, ” be careful, my lady. after Xia Pingan finished speaking, she immediately hugged Mrs. Caitlin, who was still standing in shock, and pushed her down. At the same time, she crashed into director Kevin, knocking him to the ground as well.

And just as Xia Pingan pounced forward, a ring of scorching flames had already flown out from Milton’s body. Like an explosion of fireworks, it transformed into a bunch of fireballs that flashed with scorching red light. With a loud boom, they exploded in the living room of the villa.

The Butler, NATAS, was hit by a fireball. With a scream, his whole body burst into flames and exploded with a boom, knocking the two policemen who were holding him to the ground.

The other three fireballs were flying toward Xia ping ‘an, Mrs. Caitlyn, and director Kevin. Xia ping’ an moved, not only dodging the fireballs that were flying toward him, but also allowing Mrs. Caitlyn and director Kevin to avoid the fireballs as well.

Closely after that, the 3 fireballs hit the walls and furniture of the living room, causing them to explode and burn up at once.
