Chapter 191 I want to marry Miss Isabelle, please grant my request!
The bullet pierced Anne's shoulder.
Her immense and unparalleled strength caused her body to shift to the side in an instant, unexpectedly dodging the parrot's attack.
Anne looked directly in the direction from which the bullets were coming.
Meni stood not far away, holding the gun in both hands. It was probably her first time firing a gun. She was not used to it and was very scared. Her hands were shaking uncontrollably and her voice was almost broken.
"Second Miss, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."
Anne encouraged her, "It's okay, this is good!"
The parrot, having missed its target, became even angrier, turned its head, and flew towards Annie again.
Annie's body was trapped in a net woven from orange spiritual energy, making it impossible for her to move.
He saw that ugly mouth approaching him again.
Anne could only pray that Mennie's marksmanship was accurate, even more accurate, and that she could kill him with a single shot.
But after Mennie fired that shot, the parrot knew who it had to deal with now.
It split its mental energy into two streams, one to imprison Anne, and the other to attack Menie.
In an instant.
Both of them were controlled by the parrot.
The orange aura of spiritual energy permeated almost the entire courtyard.
The parrot flapped its wings, landed in front of Annie, grinned, revealing two rows of countless teeth, and said, "Baby, now you can be quiet."
After exercising for so long, the meat must taste delicious.
It stared wide-eyed, excitedly watching Anne's face contort in fear.
Although her face was deathly pale, her pretty features looked beautiful no matter how they contorted.
It likes it, it likes it very much.
It wants to bite her head off completely so she can stay this beautiful forever.
The parrot opened its mouth wide.
It looks small, but its mouth can expand infinitely, turning into a gaping maw in the blink of an eye.
It looked like they were about to swallow Annie whole.
suddenly.
A black shadow, faster than a shooting star, flew out of the orange-lit backyard. It lightly touched the ground with its toes, used the surrounding tree trunks for leverage, leaped into the air, and then plummeted down, stomping hard on the parrot's head.
The moment of landing.
It stomped the parrot directly onto the ground.
His movements were swift and clean; not only Annie, but even the parrot didn't have time to react.
Looking at the pitch-black and oppressive environment.
I was truly stunned.
……
……
In the pitch-black night.
Two black cars were parked at the entrance of the Fraser Estate.
The car door opens.
The burly bodyguard got out of the car first and exchanged a few words with the guard.
Upon hearing this, the guard went to the main courtyard to inform the manor lord.
The owner of the estate was still awake, reading in her study. Upon hearing that Murgard had come to visit, she frowned slightly and glanced at the clock on the wall.
half past twelve.
What is this old scoundrel doing here so late?
She suppressed her displeasure, turned to look at the moonlight outside the window, and said coldly, "Just say I'm asleep and I won't see you."
The guards left, but returned shortly afterward.
Holding a brocade box high above his head, he said, "Master, Murgard said that visiting so late at night was impolite. This is his apology gift. He hopes that you will forgive him and that he can grant you an audience."
The manor lord raised an eyebrow, put down the book, stood up, walked to the guard, and opened the brocade box.
A priceless necklace was set in black velvet, with huge diamonds sparkling. The moment it was opened, she was almost mesmerized by the light.
The manor owner quickly closed the brocade box, held it in his hand, a barely perceptible smile flashing across his lips, his voice softening considerably, "Since that's the case, I'll reluctantly grant him an audience. Tell them to wait for me in the reception room."
"Also, send some more people to guard outside Isabel's yard. They can only let people in, not out. If anyone comes out, take action immediately, including Isabel."
"Yes!"
……
……
"Brother-in-law!"
Annie recognized the person in front of her and quickly called out, her bright, clear eyes sparkling.
Dzeko responded with an "Mmm".
Holster appeared from another direction, looking at the faint spiritual energy, and took out a black glove from his pocket and put it on.
This is a prop Scarlett gave him; it can dissolve mental energy.
The fingers, with their distinct knuckles, are as elegant as works of art, appearing even longer when gloved. A gentle touch of spiritual energy is placed upon them.
The shadows cast by the light are full of power.
With a flick of the fingertip.
All spiritual energy dissipated.
Anne felt relieved to be free from her constraints.
She looked at Holster and sweetly called him "brother-in-law."
Holst nodded.
After greeting everyone, Annie immediately went to Mennie, helped the flustered woman up, and comforted her with a smile, "Mennie, it's alright, don't worry."
Mennie met Holst and Zheko at Scarlett's house.
She also caught the way Anne addressed them.
As she stood up, a glimmer of clarity flashed in her eyes, but when she looked up at Annie, fear once again filled her eyes, and she stammered, "Second...Second Miss..."
His face was deathly pale, devoid of any color, clearly indicating that he had been terrified.
Anne smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mennie, everything will be alright. My brother-in-law is very capable and will definitely protect us."
"Brother-in-law?"
Meni was stunned.
Annie then realized she had let something slip, frowned slightly, and was trying to figure out how to explain herself.
Another dark figure rushed out and hugged her tightly.
"Annie." A trembling voice, choked with sobs, came from close to Anne's neck, accompanied by a cool, damp sensation.
Perhaps it's because it's been too long since we last met.
Anne didn't react for a moment, her mind blank. After two seconds, her hand, which had been hanging in mid-air, landed on the man's broad back, and she exclaimed with delight, "Toby, you're here too."
Toby gave a heavy "hmm" and hugged Annie even tighter. "It was Your Highness, it was the boss who was worried about you and told us to stay here. We've always been here."
That day, Scarlett left Freyland and immediately arranged for Holst, Zheco, and Toby to stay there.
If anything unexpected happens, take Annie away immediately.
"Boss?" Annie blinked, her eyes somewhat dazed.
With outsiders present, Toby couldn't speak directly, so he smiled and said, "You'll know when you see it."
Anne understood and didn't ask any further questions.
Her two brothers-in-law are here, so it's obvious who the boss is.
She smiled and said, "Toby, I miss you so much."
"Me too." Toby's eyes welled up with tears. "I miss you so much too."
"Hey. I'm not dead yet, can't you guys show me some respect?"
At that moment, a crackling sound, like a broken bellows, came up from underground.
The sound fell.
Countless streams of orange spiritual energy burst forth from the ground, surrounding the group.
……
……
In the drawing room.
Murgard raised a glass to the estate owner, saying, "Your Excellency, I am truly sorry for visiting so late at night. I will punish myself with three cups as an apology, and I hope Your Excellency will forgive me."
Mergard tilted his head back and downed the strong liquor in his glass in one gulp.
After finishing the drink, I poured two more glasses.
After he finished three cups, a blush crept onto his aged face.
The manor owner then looked at him properly, and asked with a half-smile, "Easy, easy. But I wonder what brings you here? You seem to be in such a hurry, it must be something important?"
With a thud, Harrison knelt down beside him.
The movement was too rapid.
The manor lord was caught off guard, "This, this..."
"My lord, I wish to marry Miss Isabel. Please grant my request!"
Harrison kowtowed deeply to the manor owner.
Murgard picked up the wine jug, filled the manor lord's glass with wine, and chimed in, "Yes, that's it. This lad is really in love with Miss Isabel and doesn't want to waste a single second. He begged me to come over overnight."
The owner placed his hand on the rim of the glass, refusing the wine from Murgard, saying, "I'm afraid that's inappropriate."
She looked at Harrison and said, "He's still in mourning. My daughter can't waste three years of her life because of him."
Mergard explained with a grin, "Filial piety is enough to keep in your heart, why take three years? This kid was being foolish before, not thinking clearly, but now that he's clear-headed, he regrets it deeply and cried all night in his room."
Murgard removed the manor lord's hand and continued pouring her wine: "Besides, this marriage was agreed upon by you and his mother. Obeying your mother's wishes is also a matter of filial piety. His mother would be happy to know this in the afterlife."
The manor owner glanced at Murgard but said nothing.
Murgard continued, "Master, to be honest, our family has nothing but money. We're a late bloomer with no foundation, and we don't own a single penny of anything of value. If you don't mind, I'm willing to offer half of the shares of Landon Street as a wedding gift for this young man. What do you say?"
