Chapter 223 Inviting Her Out
An hour after Isa’s arrival at the villa, a few subordinates escorted a beautiful woman into the living room. She had an exquisite appearance, stylishly dressed, with a look of anxiety on her face.
“What are you guys doing?”
“What do you want?”
“Let me go! I’ll tell you, I’m the young lady of the Thompson family!”
“If my family finds out, they won’t spare you!”
Could this woman be anyone other than Miranda’s friend Sarah?
“Miss Thompson, don’t be nervous! I invited you here just to help me out!” Isa stood up and blew smoke into Sarah’s pretty face before speaking with a smile.
“Who… who are you?” Sarah asked uncertainly.
“Let me introduce myself. My name is Isa! From the Austin family in Kreanford!” said Isa.
The Austin family of Kreanford was much stronger than Edoland’s so-called first-class families. When Sarah heard his identity, she immediately quieted down and stopped shouting nervously.
“That’s right, it’s me,” nodded Isa.
“Mr. Austin, you want to see me for something… I haven’t offended you.”
“I told you already? Just help me out!” he said smilingly to Sarah. “Tonight, invite your friend Miranda out for dinner with us? How about that?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Sarah hesitated before saying bitterly, “Mr. Austin, I have fallen out with Miranda already! I might not be able to get her to come.”
After returning home from abroad recently, Sarah stayed in Edoland for some time and heard some things too. She guessed what his intentions were when she learned about his identity.
“You’ve been good friends for years. I believe that you can do it! Don’t disappoint me okay?” With an icy tone in his voice, Isa narrowed his eyes while pinching Sarah’s chin tightly.
Sarah trembled slightly as she replied, “I’ll try my best.”
“Good! After everything is settled, I won’t forget your favor. I owe you one.” smiled Isa.
“All right then. With you saying so, I will definitely get Miranda to come,” promised Sarah eagerly upon hearing this.
Getting on his good side was a good thing for both her and the Thompson family. As for whether or not Miranda will be tricked, Sarah didn’t care.
She didn’t even need to think about how to choose between Isa and Miranda.
Miranda had already been kicked out of the Lowe family and now had no background except for her brother Mason. And as for that guy Lachlan? Sarah didn’t care about him at all, even when she saw him hanging out with Sam and Liam last time.
“Okay, you can go now!” Isa nodded, signaling her men to let Sarah leave.
Sarah nodded repeatedly and bowed in a gesture of goodwill, “Mr. Austin, you can rest assured that I know what to do!”
Isa waved his hand, indicating that the woman could leave.
After she left, Isa turned to Anthony and Giovanni, “Giovanni, I’m leaving Lachlan’s fate in your hands! Do it tonight with this Suppressing Talisman and bring me back his body!”
“Yes, Mr. Austin!”
…
That evening at a hotel in Iylonio.
Lachlan was sitting in a private room with Simeon, Stephen, Orion, and Blake drinking together.
“Mr. Willis, I’ll drink one toast to you! Haha…” Simeon raised his glass unsteadily towards Lachlan.
The captain of Dragon Sword Brigade had one arm hanging from its sling while Stephen had bandages wrapped around his head. Orion leaned on crutches while Blake had several layers of gauze wrapped around his waist. All were injured during their previous battle but fortunately none sustained permanent disabilities
“Haha, you’re awesome now! You hold the rank of Grand Marshal plus you wield Priocia Dragon Token!”
“Oh my god! We should call him Mr. Wills from now on!”
“He deserves this honor! Haha…”
Several military playboys teased each other non-stop
Lachlan smiled, “Stop flattering me! I just have an honorary title.”Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
“Eh, Mr. Willis, it’s not like that. This honor was personally awarded by Commander-in-Chief. Its significance cannot be underestimated. Priocia Dragon Token is no joke. If you give me an order right now, I must strictly follow it,” said Simeon seriously.
Lachlan sweated, “So powerful?”
He didn’t have much of a concept before, but hearing Simeon say this, Lachlan was secretly amazed.
“Of course! Do you think that by taking out Dante Black and ensuring the success of this operation, your superiors will just give you lip service?”
“Hey, if you develop seriously in the military, maybe in just a few years you can reach the heights of Mighty Sky War God!” Simeon exclaimed as he looked at Lachlan’s expression with some regret.
The commander-in-chief had previously extended an olive branch to Lachlan, hoping that he would stay in the Iylonio military district but was rejected by him.
“Mighty Sky War God?”
Lachlan raised his eyebrows curiously.
“Kamryn Hernandez?” Stephen exclaimed in surprise. He never expected Simeon to hold such high regard for Lachlan.
Mighty Sky War God was an extraordinary figure from Northwest the Hernandez family who rose rapidly through the ranks within a few years. He had made outstanding contributions to Priocia’s Northwest border areas by eradicating cults and quelling rebellions.
At only thirty years old, he became Priocia’s youngest commander-in-chief and was considered a legend within the military!
Simeon and Stephen come from prominent military families but even they were filled with admiration for Mighty Sky War God. Like many young soldiers, they aspired to be like Kamryn!
After listening to their introduction about Mighty Sky War God, Lachlan also admired him greatly.
However, Lachlan knew that he had too many constraints and couldn’t develop himself fully within the military.
After chatting over dinner, Simeon, Stephen and the others gave detailed information about their family backgrounds.
Simeon came from the Smith family, a powerful family in both politics and military affairs.
Stephen was third-generation descendant of the Brooks family from Slocmore while Blake belonged to the Kelly family in Raevale.
It was worth mentioning that Orion was from the Moore family in Kreanford, the eldest son of his family. The Moore family wasn’t one of Kreanford’s four major families, but its status was more special. Hidden energy cannot be compared even with four major families such as Austin or Britt families.
Orion’s grandfather was none other than the commanding officer of the Kreanford military district, a member of the second and third generations of the influential Moore family with significant power both in the military and local politics.
