After I became a real young master, I became famous for my bad behavior
Chapter 433: The Account Must Be Settled
Nora covered her head and sighed, then told the Duke everything she was currently facing.
Of course, it was about how Scott was almost killed by Xi Lun, and then Xi Lun thought that Haynes could protect him, so he didn't take Scott seriously.
...
The Duke's dark green eyes were full of "unbelievability".
"what!"
The Duke suddenly became furious.
"Like father, like son. Although that guy is not Atole's biological son, he was raised by Atole. That guy is just like this damn thing!"
Nora knew from James's furious look:
If he hadn't been fighting outside, he would have wanted to bring a large group of people to Atole and teach him a lesson.
"So, you are here to ask me what I think? Of course, we can't let them go."
After the Duke calmed down, he sat at the table and looked at Nora. There was a hint of worry in his eyes:
"but...
"The nightmares they brought you have tormented you for a long time. That's why I brought you to the Pure Land in the north to recuperate. If you really want to apply for arbitration...
"That means you go to the palace and take Atole to court."
The air was silent afterwards.
After noticing the Duke's concern, Nora quickly said:
"It's okay, James. Just stay at the border. I'll take care of the family affairs..."
Nora clenched her right fist:
"Hiding is not an option. Besides, the news that I'm still alive is undoubtedly a huge blow to Atole and Lisa."
As she spoke, Nora's pink eyes were full of light:
"But they can't do anything to me, because I am no longer the helpless Viscount Lange of the past. I am now the Duchess of Imperth, the overlord of the north.
"If they want to harm me, they will be punished more severely."
The Duke felt embarrassed when he heard Nora say that he was the "king of the north":
"It seems that Impess also played a role in Nora's transformation. Did we help Nora, who was lost back then, to come out of her trance?"
"Well, since you have thought it through, I won't stop you."
James moved his hands on the table and continued to talk to Nora,
“When my son was born, I taught him not to become a criminal, but when I knew our daughter survived, I was willing to be a criminal for her!
"Nora, I support your idea. Of course you have to plan it carefully and show the courage of my wife!"
Nora nodded:
"Got it, thank you for supporting me."
The Duke nodded with satisfaction:
"It's okay. You are my wife, so just do whatever you want.
"That Atole should have been dealt a lesson by you a long time ago. Now is the perfect opportunity to do so. Don't let it go!"
-
Magic Tower.
Scott kept his word and released Xiren at that time.
Xi Lun returned to the Duke's Mansion safely, but his story was told as "Scott became imprisoned and abused himself". In short, he exaggerated the story to arouse public outrage.
As expected, Haines's people started to speak ill of Scott, but the storm soon died down.
Because the Duke was sitting on the high platform and couldn't laugh at all!
A week later.
Family meeting.
This meeting was attended by all family members, but of course Carol was absent.
In the past, Atole's favored second wife, Lisa, would definitely say something to make Atole grant her every request.
However, the situation was very serious and Lisa couldn't say anything nice.
Boom!
The Duke slammed his hand on the table, stood up and shouted at Xi Lun:
"Xi Lun! Look at what you have done - you actually offended the heir of Impers. Isn't this just asking for a beating?!"
"Oh, Atole, why are you in such a hurry?"
The lady sat aside, speaking well of Atole,
"He acted alone, and even put Xilun under house arrest in disguise. Isn't there something wrong with him?"
When the lady said these words, Xi Lun couldn't even raise his head:
"Bad news, the lie has become true!"
"As long as we find an opportunity to go to the Magic Tower and explain things to Scott, won't all the troubles be over?" The Lord also expressed his own opinion.
"He just wants us to punish Xilun, so why don't we punish him in return..."
"Shut up. This is two different things!"
The Duke was so anxious that he threw the arbitration documents he received in front of everyone, and then told the facts.
"Imperts wants to take this matter to arbitration with Haynes. This is a matter concerning the reputation of the entire Haynes!"
! ! ! !
All the family members present were stunned and turned their eyes to the arbitration documents.
It is indeed the official seal of Impes!
Fanny gritted her teeth and couldn't help but complain sourly:
"No, are the people of Impes so petty? Isn't it just a broken carriage? Do they have to sue the entire Haynes for arbitration?
"They really are making a mountain out of a molehill. I'm really impressed..."
"No, you're wrong," Boyden quickly interrupted Fanny's contempt and then focused his eyes on the documents.
He rested his hands on his knees and clenched his fists as he spoke:
"If Impes wins the case, it won't just be my brother who will be punished...
"Instead, all members of the Haines family."
Fanny's eyes were full of surprise:
"Why? I didn't do anything wrong—"
"Because we are a family," Bonnie said coldly after taking a sip of tea helplessly and putting the cup down.
"Let's put aside whether Scott imprisoned Xi Lun in disguise. Because Xi Lun's subjective assumptions do not necessarily constitute facts.
"In fact, as long as the detention time does not exceed 48 hours, and Xilun is indeed not injured, it does not constitute a crime of imprisonment."
After Xi Lun heard what Bonnie said, he felt annoyed:
"If I had known...I should have caught that guard when I left..."
The Duke rolled his eyes at Xiren:
"Then you will also bear the crime of kidnapping? That is the Magic Tower, and every staff member has a Magic Tower badge. If one is lost, they will be able to find it."
"..." Xi Lun stopped talking.
Lilibei held her chin with her left hand and said coquettishly in a particularly creepy voice:
"Really? Impes really loves to cause trouble. Brother Xilun didn't kill anyone, but they must make a big deal out of it, and even want to embarrass me...
"But think about it. As a saint, and brother Xilun's successor, they can't punish us too severely no matter what they do, right? Otherwise, the entire south will stop functioning, and they won't gain anything but lose~"
Julian looked at the document that read: "Arbitrating the egregious incident in which Haynes attempted to kill the heir to Impes, and a more serious crime."
He leaned his head out and looked at Lilibei for a long time, then finally sighed helplessly:
"Putting aside the 'more serious crimes'. We don't know what they are going to charge us with.
“The problem is...
"The second brother really brought a bunch of warriors and made a move to kill Scott."
