Mystery: Starting from Meeting Amon

Chapter 179 No way

Miss Stephanie, who was standing by, covered her mouth with her fan and replied in a low voice:
"Yes, he worked in my family when my father was still alive. He was a very humble man."

"Modest?" Lewis glanced at the waiter out of the corner of his eye. Judging from the current situation, this waiter had nothing to do with modesty.

Of course, it is also possible that after Stephanie's father died, the waiter finally released his original nature.

He walked up to the waiter in two or three steps and said loudly through the black iron gate:
"Please tell Mrs. Slont that a businessman from Loon, an old friend of Mr. Lyle, is here to visit."

The waiter still looked at him with a sizing eye, not even looking at Lewis. He replied in a cold tone:
"Hmm...wait a minute, a Roselle chess match is going on in my mind."

Lewis was somewhat helpless by this sudden scene. He waited for the waiter to finish his daze, and then slowly walked towards the three-story house.

"If I had a waiter like this, I would have fired him a long time ago. This is blatant slacking on the job."

After waiting for a long while, the waiter came out slowly and opened the door. His eyes were still arrogant and condescending.

Led by the waiter, Lewis was able to walk in through the front entrance and go to Mrs. Slont's room.

From the first floor to the third floor, he saw two or three maids in total. These maids seemed strange. One maid spoke ill of her colleagues without any scruples.

Another maid looked at Lewis with admiration when she saw him, and suddenly her eyes lit up and she said solemnly:

"Sir, could you please come to my room for a moment?"

Of course Lewis rejected the other party. After all, the maid's appearance was a bit ordinary, and her skin seemed to have been exposed to wind and sun for many years and was not smooth.

Of course he knew that Intis was more open-minded, but wasn't the maid going a little too far by inviting the manor's guests to her room during working hours?
If he was the owner of the manor, he would have fired every one of these people long ago.

I followed the waiter to the room at the end of the third floor, in front of a tall vermilion door.

This door is about four or five meters long and is quite majestic.

When you push open the door, you can see the morning sunlight slanting into the room. Looking out from here, through the huge window in the room, you can see the withered vineyards in the distance.

It’s not that there is no greenhouse technology in the world, it’s just that the cost of producing crops using greenhouse technology is relatively high. If the expenditure is not proportional to the income, people will naturally choose to suspend planting.

In the middle of the room, there was a table and chair carved from a whole piece of marble. A woman wearing a court dress with long black hair flowing down behind her was sitting there quietly, holding a cup of morning coffee in her hand. She looked about 70% similar to Miss Stephanie.

When she looked at Lewis, there was a fire in her brown eyes.

"Mr. Lewis, are you a friend of Mr. Lyle?" the woman asked.

"Yes, Mrs. Strong, I used to do business in Loon, and it had been a long time when I heard the news of Mr. Lyle's death." Lewis took off his half-high silk hat, tried to squeeze out a few tears that were not sad and held them in the corners of his eyes, with a sad expression.

In Intis, a woman would change her name to her husband's after marriage, so there was nothing wrong with calling her Mrs. Strong, unless she had remarried.

"It's not your fault, Mr. Lewis." Mrs. Strong's eyes became more and more fiery, and the ravines on her chest rose and fell. Suddenly she said, "You are really handsome. I wish Mr. Lyle was like you."

Lewis noticed that the other person's eyes were becoming more and more strange. Even if he was really so handsome that he was hated by everyone, there was no need to be like this.

No, ma'am, you can't do that. I already have your daughter...

He complained silently in his heart, and Stephanie on the side squeezed his arm tightly, as if she couldn't wait to recognize her mother. However, without Lewis's permission, Stephanie still did not act on her own.

"Cough cough cough..."

Lewis coughed lightly and said:

"This time I came to Intis, in addition to visiting you, I also brought a lady with me."

He reminded Stephanie, and Stephanie took off her hat with a black veil hanging down and called out softly, "Mom."

At this moment, Miss Stephanie's tears burst out and she rushed into Ms. Slent's arms.

Lewis thought he could see a touching scene of reunion, but there was only confusion and a little bit of disgust in Mrs. Strong's eyes.

“There is definitely something wrong here, and from what Miss Stephanie has described, it is clear that her mother is not a cold-blooded person.

Even if the mother is worried that her daughter will come back to grab the inheritance, she should still do some superficial work. At least the touch in her heart is indispensable.

In addition, everyone in this manor behaves very strangely, as if they are fully expressing their repressed desires, most of which are negative. "

While the other two people in the room were not paying attention, Lewis created a sealed spiritual wall, lit a candle and summoned the messenger:

"A spirit wandering in the void, a friendly creature that can be driven, a messenger that belongs exclusively to Lewis Harvey."

Then, a cold wind blew inside the sealed spiritual wall, and Miss Elana with dark red hair appeared in front of Lewis shyly.

"Take away the depraved desire in her." Lewis gave Miss Elana an order.

Now, among the three people in the room, he was the only one who possessed the ability of clairvoyance, so he didn't have to worry about being discovered by the other two.

Elana walked up to Mrs. Strong, her tail brushed gently across her back, and her body gradually became transparent.

When Miss Elana disappeared, Mrs. Strong's eyes regained some clarity. She didn't know where to put her hands, and she finally hugged Miss Stephanie's shoulders tightly, tears in her eyes.

Gradually, sobs began to be heard in the room. Lewis watched this touching scene. He put away items such as candles and essential oils, lifted the sealed spiritual wall, and hid his merits and fame.

Only after the two men had released their emotions for a while did Lewis speak, interrupting the reunion:

"Mrs. Strong, have you noticed anything wrong at the manor?"

Mrs. Strong wiped the tears from her eyes, shook her head, and answered:
“No, I didn’t notice anything wrong at the manor.

Why do you light candles in your room, Mr. Lewis?"

Lewis smiled faintly and lied:
“When I was a child, I was born in an orphanage in the Kingdom of Loen. I loved reading, and my biggest wish was to have a candle so that I could read peacefully at night.

Later, I got a candle, and to this day, whenever I see the light of the candle, it reminds me of the days when I worked hard. "
