Time flew by, and soon it was the day when the agents of the five families arrived at the West Mansion, but today only four families came, and one of them did not come.

When Darcy saw the apology brought by the agent of the Simon family, his face sank.

During this period of time, he has also investigated these families. Naturally, he knew the overseas trade goods of the Simon family. It was because he knew that he took a breath. A profit of [-] pounds, this is not a small figure, thinking of this, Darcy's expression gradually condensed.

Darcy didn't sympathize with the Simon family at all, but Caroline was able to force a family to give up such a large profit. She must have the handle of the Simon family in her hands, and it was something that could threaten his entire family. Because of this, Darcy Xi Cai was very worried. She really didn't know why this woman was so courageous. What if the other party jumped over the wall and did something to hurt her? At this moment, Darcy was extremely annoyed, and the expression on her face became more and more indifferent.

This scene made the three of Baron Peterson, who brought his own agent, fidget and wonder whether Darcy already knew the purpose of their coming here.

The three of them were not as direct and forthright as Viscount Simon. They asked their agent to bring the contract and came here alone. They still held some hope in their hearts. The person in front of them is the head of the Darcy family. His words are the most Useful, for this reason, they still took a chance to see if they could persuade Darcy to reduce the compensation.

"Mr. Darcy, this time we are here to apologize to Miss Darcy, and we will prepare the apology, but... But, Mr. Darcy, you also know that Mrs. Darcy's request really makes us... Difficulty", said Viscount Peterson with a sad and distressed face, as if he had encountered a huge problem, and he was at a loss what to do.

"So I wish, Mr. Darcy, if you--"

Darcy glanced at Baron Peterson lightly, interrupted his words and said indifferently: "My wife's meaning is what I mean. If Baron Peterson can't do it, I, Darcy The family will definitely pursue it to the end." Darcy's dark eyes were indifferent, even with a touch of disgust, he didn't have the slightest affection for these families.

Baron Peterson's words were stuck in his mouth, and he couldn't tell what he was feeling. Although Darcy's words were within his expectations, he didn't have much hope, but at the moment when he was really rejected, Baron Peterson felt very uncomfortable. Unspeakable pain and anger, secretly scolding the two couples of the Darcy family for being too dark-hearted.

Now that the matter has come to an end, the three of them can't say anything more, so they can only obediently offer their compensations one by one. There are mansions, ranches, and shops. In short, the value of compensation offered by each person is no less than 8000 pounds.Such a big handwriting really made the three of them feel heartbroken.

As for the fact that the Ashley family did not come, the three of them secretly scolded the Baroness Ashley as an idiot, who would even pay for the entire family for money. It is not clear which of the four families they came here. They have a bit of capital to fight against the Darcy family, so they will not allow the Darcy family to bully them like this. This woman is indeed an incomprehensible idiot.

Judging from the handles that Caroline is holding them, it is enough for their families to eat a pot. Although it is not fatal, once it is leaked out, it will definitely cause endless troubles, not to mention the addition of a Darcy family watching over it. .

As the three of them thought, Baroness Ashley was indeed reluctant to part with such a large sum of money, it was more than reluctant, to be precise, it was digging her heart.Although the threat of the Darcy family frightened her, it did not make her panic. Apart from attending dance parties and shopping, she didn't know much about other things, so naturally she didn't pay much attention to it, and even went back to her own family. When her husband, Baron Ashley, talked about the situation that day, he also minimized Caroline's threat as much as possible. She didn't even show the evidence that Caroline gave her. In the end, she only told the conditions Caroline asked for. After killing his husband, the angry Baron Ashley scolded Caroline on the spot as a crazy woman with no brains.

How could Baron Ashley pay attention to the words of a crazy woman and ignore them.After that day, he put the matter aside directly. He was very busy during this time, otherwise he would not have let his wife go to Caroline's banquet. After all, the threat in Caroline's letter was enough to attract his attention, but Now it seems that it is just the words of a crazy woman.

After that, Baron Ashley didn't have time to pay attention to the actions of several other families. This was just a small incident between a few girls and Miss Darcy at school.

Small matter, yes, it is really just a small matter in Baron Ashley's opinion, that's why he believed her wife's words so easily. Who would have thought that the Darcy family would make this matter just because of the conflicts among the juniors? Do you want to pursue the matter to the end?

After everyone had left, Caroline walked into Darcy's study. At this time, Darcy was sitting on the sofa in the corner, with white smoke from the coffee in front of him, and the whole room was so quiet that only Caroline could be heard walking in. The sound of footsteps and the crackling of wood burning in the fireplace.

Darcy lowered his head, the reflection of the bookshelf cast a shadow on his face, making it hard to see his expression clearly, the atmosphere around him was condensed to the extreme, standing there like an eternal sharp ice, oppressed and out of breath .

It wasn't until Caroline walked into him that he raised his head, his black pupils looked straight at Caroline and said in a deep voice, "Is that what you mean by apology?"

Caroline followed Darcy's gaze, and there were some contracts on the desk at this time.

Caroline nodded: "Yes, but the Ashley family didn't come." Caroline didn't care if the Ashley family came or not, she would always ask him to bring things to her obediently.

Darcy's face turned cold immediately, he stood up and approached Caroline, his tall body came with a strong sense of oppression.

Lowering his head, Darcy looked down at Caroline, his black eyes were sharp and cold like eagles: "What kind of handle do you have on these families? How could they be willing to offer so much compensation?"

"The handle? It's the information and a letter I asked Karen to hand over to them just now, and the rest is gone. If you want to read it, I still have a copy of the Ashley family, which I can lend you."

With Caroline's attitude of ignoring the slightest attention, Darcy was furious, and asked sharply: "Do you know how dangerous this is? You are holding them to force them to submit. What if these family dogs jump over the wall in a hurry to do any harm?" What about you and Georgiana?!"

Darcy's face was dark, and he couldn't imagine the possibility of such a thing happening.

Darcy reprimanded and shouted Caroline, and then stepped back decisively, away from Darcy who was extremely angry.

"Don't worry about this, the Ashley family. I just told Mr. Evans to find someone to watch them. If there is any change in them, I will know." Caroline paused: "As for other families , you don’t have to worry about that, if they were really in a hurry, they wouldn’t send the things over today, and if they choose to compromise, it means they don’t want to offend the Darcy family,” but if one day the Darcy family becomes weaker , They will definitely not mind stepping on it, Caroline added silently in her heart.

Caroline doesn't care about this situation. As a huge steel supplier, how can it be possible to have no enemies.As long as the Darcy family does not fall for a day, those are not threatening, and once the Darcy family falls, not to mention those enemies, even those who are usually on good terms with the Darcy family will pounce on them like hungry wolves. a mouthful.

The reality is so cruel. Under the temptation of interests, there are many people who betray and turn against each other. If there is no such thing, it can only be said that the temptation is not strong enough.

"Then what if an accident happens?!" Darcy asked in a deep voice, "If they really do--", Darcy didn't dare to continue talking at this point, because the thoughts in his mind shocked him His whole body was covered in cold sweat, and even his fingers trembled slightly.

"Fitzwilliam, I think you should calm down now." Caroline calmly watched Darcy's embarrassing face, and said in a cold voice: "If you care about it, you will be chaotic. Don't forget the family who had an antagonism with the Darcy family. Not many, these families do not pose any threat.

I know you are worried about Georgiana. During this time, I have arranged for someone to protect her, and she will go to France with the Jones family for vacation after a while. She will be safer in France. These families have not been able to stretch their hands so far. At that time, you can use the Darcy family's relationship in France to arrange it, and add the people I sent to protect her, it will be even more foolproof, so you can rest assured. "

Caroline thought that the reason why Darcy lost control so much was only because of worrying about Georgiana, and as for her, it was just incidental.

"how about you?"

Well, I was slapped in the face just thinking about it, and Caroline had to admit that Darcy was indeed a pretty good person.

Georgiana told him that Georgiana was going to France for vacation, and he would indeed make arrangements for her safety at that time, but this didn't make Darcy's face any better at all, and he stared closely at Caroline's eyes:

"What about your safety?"

"Me?... Naturally, I have someone to protect me, and it's not so easy for them to do it." If the Darcy family was really so easy to be taken advantage of, I'm afraid Darcy would have been taken over when he took over the family.

"But they are five families, if there is any omission, what will you do?!"

Georgiana went to France, not only protected by the Darcy family, but the other two families will definitely send some people to protect their girl, and with the Jones family watching, Georgiana has four layers of protection, not to mention those people There is no way to stretch her hand so far. When she comes back from France, she will go directly to Pemberley Manor, and she will not have to worry about it on the Darcy family's own territory. So Darcy is not worried about Georgiana, but Caroline is different. She is under the eyes of others, and if those people go crazy, the Darcy family can't guard against it at all.

"This kind of thing will never happen, Fitzwilliam, you should be clear, otherwise some other people who had a bad relationship with the Darcy family would have succeeded long ago, aren't you still fine?"

"How can this be the same?" Darcy said in a deep voice.He has the ability to protect himself, but Caroline does not. Once she fails to protect her, she has no ability to resist at all.

Caroline couldn't understand Darcy's desperate worry, but he insisted on holding on to such an easy-to-understand reason, and sighed helplessly, Caroline said, "What's the difference? I think it's all—" Under Darcy's stern gaze, Caroline stopped the topic, didn't bother to go on, spread her hands and compromised: "Okay, you're right, if what you said really happens In that case—”

Caroline glanced at Darcy, and said in an understated tone: "That's my bad luck, because of the love between husband and wife, please remember to avenge me when the time comes, and I will thank you." After finishing speaking, continue Said: "Forget it, today is not suitable for talking about things, I want to wait for you to calm down before we talk."

Caroline was just about to turn around and leave, but she was pulled back by a strong force as soon as her arms tightened, and a rage sounded in her ears.

"Caroline! Do you know what you're talking about! Can't you be serious?!"

Darcy held Caroline's shoulders with both hands, and fixed her firmly in front of him. The round shoulder bones were completely wrapped by Darcy's big palm, as if he could use a little more force. It is easy to crush it.

Darcy leaned over with a gloomy face, and looked directly at Caroline with deep eyes. He really hated her casual attitude, and the anger in his heart became stronger, making him want to tear her indifference.

Caroline raised her head, looked at Darcy who was less than a fist away from her face, blinked, and she could feel Darcy's angry breath on her face.

"I'm telling you seriously, but you don't believe me. I agree with your worry, but you are so angry. What should I do, Fitzwilliam."

Caroline's calm is in stark contrast to Darcy's anger.

How to do it?

He has done everything that should be done, and he will let people protect her and Georgiana, but then what?He was still worried, should she and Georgiana stay in Pemberley Manor and never come out?

Obviously impossible.

Caroline's plain voice reached his ears, causing Darcy to lower his head, his face was hidden in a shadow, looking extremely depressed.

What can he do?

Caroline frowned and looked at the distressed Darcy in front of her. She didn't think she should say that. After all, he cared about her, so she could only glance at a comforting word: "Don't worry, I'm not worried, you are worried Varied--"

"But I'm worried." Darcy raised his head and stared at Caroline closely, with an indescribably heavy voice.

"..."

The next moment, even the whole person fell into Darcy's arms.
