Secret: The Witch's House Traitor

"Yes, Miss, but I heard that the gentleman who delivered the letter was very well dressed and did not look like a servant in Lord Glint's house."

Anna added after thinking about it.

Miss Audrey opened the envelope and saw the self-introduction on the first line, and her emerald eyes widened slightly.

Why did Mr. Lover come to my house?

Chapter 248: Pulling Sponsorship

When Lin Nuo followed the servant into the villa, what he saw was not Miss Audrey, who was as beautiful as a high-level witch, but her mother, Lady Caitlin.

"Mr. Nord, what brings you here for?"

The beautiful lady asked in a friendly manner, holding a folding fan.

"Mrs. Hall, I actually want to talk to Earl Hall about something under the guise of visiting Miss Audrey."

"I will not hide anything from you. This letter of recommendation from Viscount Glint was also forged by me in private."

"Although this behavior is not polite, it does save me a lot of trouble."

Lin Nuo handed the gift he brought to the maid beside him and said frankly.

Although he had long known that a stranger of the opposite sex visiting Audrey would attract the attention of the Hall family.

But this is almost the fastest way, right?

Lin Nuo smiled and ignored the extraordinary person who was secretly responsible for protecting the safety of the Hall family.

"Mr. Nord, you are such a straightforward person."

"But unfortunately, the Earl is not at home. Such a big incident happened in Backlund yesterday. He should still be in the palace with the Prime Minister to help His Majesty the King handle government affairs."

Lady Catelyn paused slightly as she held the feather fan, as if she had not expected that this young man who came for no apparent reason would be so straightforward.

She immediately smiled and wanted to listen to what the other party wanted to say next.

"As the leader of the new party, it is inevitable that Earl Hall is busy at this time."

"I came to see Earl Hall only for some trivial matters."

"It would be great if Mrs. Hall could mention my name when the Earl comes back, so that I can have the honor of meeting the Earl in his spare time."

Lin Nuo carefully explained his meaning.

He did not want Earl Hall to rush back after receiving the news that a stranger had come to his house.

This is really rude and totally unnecessary.

"Since it's just some small things, Mr. Nord said the same to me."

Lady Catelyn saw that Lin Nuo was about to leave and tried to persuade him to stay.

Now she no longer thought that the young man came with malicious intentions, so she simply asked him about his purpose.

"Since Madam asked, it's fine to tell you."

"I came here mainly to ask Earl Hall for an investment or to borrow some money."

"Three million pounds."

Lin Nuo said casually as he glanced at the exquisite decoration in the villa's hall.

Although he felt that the mere 10 pounds seemed to be an insult to Earl Hall.

But 10 pounds will be more than enough for Tarot to get through the difficult early and middle stages of its development.

As for what happens next...Lin Nuo doesn't want to care about it.

10 pounds?

Lady Catelyn was stunned.

She thought this gentleman came here for something important.

Is it just such a small matter?

Admittedly, £10 is not a small sum.

But this little money is really not a big deal in Lady Catelyn's eyes.

"If it's an investment, what does Mr. Nord need the money for?"

Lady Catelyn asked with interest.

This young man clearly came here to borrow money but he doesn't look nervous at all?

Miss Justice, who was hiding on the stairs leading to the second floor, was also surprised when she heard that her lover came to borrow money.

Borrow money?

That's it?

She was so nervous before that she thought some evil force was going to assassinate Earl Hall like they did Duke Negan.

Why didn't Mr. Lover come to me when he needed to borrow money? And what would he use the 10 pounds he borrowed at a time for?

Audrey really wanted to go down and have a good chat with Lin Nuo.

Unfortunately, no.

"I'm sorry, ma'am, but I can't answer that for you."

"If I communicate with Earl Hall and he is willing to tell you, then that is your family's business."

Lin Nuo shook his head slightly.

He just came here to sell anxiety and make some money and then leave.

How could he say such words to this female relative?

"If Mr. Nord has nothing else to do, why not stay and have lunch with us at noon?"

"My husband will come back at noon as well."

Lady Catelyn invited him when she heard this.

This was a disguised way of detaining the person and waiting for Earl Hall to come back and deal with him.

"Thank you for your invitation, Lady Caitlin. Would you mind if I read a book in the living room to kill time?"

Lin Nuo did not reject the lady's kindness, he also wanted to get this matter done as soon as possible.

"What kind of books do you like to read?"

"I'll ask the maid to get it for you from the study."

Lady Catelyn asked with a smile as her eyes turned.

"If possible, please give me a copy of The Revelation of Night and some books introducing the customs and people of Trier."

Lin Nuo said after thinking for a moment.

noon.

When Earl Hall returned after receiving the message from his wife.

He saw a handsome young man sitting on the sofa in the living room, holding a history of Intis and studying it seriously.

The silver hair was tinged with golden light under the sunlight.

Earl Hall touched his flabby muscles and slightly bulging belly, and couldn't help but sigh that this young man's appearance was almost catching up with his own when he was young.

"Good morning, Count."

When Lin Nuo heard the slightly heavy footsteps, he closed the book, stood up politely and greeted.

"Come to the study and talk with me."

Count Hall said after glancing at the "Apocalypse of Night" on the table.

Lin Nuo nodded slightly and followed the Earl to the study on the second floor.

After entering the study, the first thing Lin Nuo saw was a female dog lying in the corner.

After Susie caught Lin Nuo's gaze, she wagged her tail and looked like a real dog.

Lin Nuo curled his lips and looked away.

"Mr. Nord, now you can talk about asking me for investment."

Count Hall did not notice the interaction between the man and the dog, and his blue eyes examined Lin Nuo.

After he received the news in the morning, he naturally inquired about this person through various channels, including the Church of Night.

"In short, I want to borrow 10 pounds from you."

"Someone will slowly pay back the money in the future."

Lin Nuo sat opposite Earl Hall and handed him a folded paper.

Earl Hall opened it and took a look.

It looked like a family crest, an overlapping door drawn with stick figures.

Abraham family?

Earl Hall recognized it almost immediately as the family crest of the Abraham family, the first noble family of the Tudor dynasty.

His family treasury also contained coins from the Tudor dynasty.

"You still need to borrow 10 pounds from me?"

Earl Hall couldn't help but look at Lin Nuo in surprise.

Although Abraham's family had disappeared for a long time.

But how is it possible that you can’t even come up with 10 pounds?

"I don't lack it. We don't lack it."

"You can understand that young people need a little start-up capital to start a business."

“And I don’t want to reduce my quality of life over this.”

Lin Nuo shrugged and said half helplessly and half shamelessly.

Anyway, he had no interest in subsidizing the Tarot Club.

"What will I get if I lend you money?"

Earl Hall asked with a chuckle.

“There are many benefits, and currently most of them are hidden benefits.”

"If we put aside some parts that are not suitable for telling at the moment."

"Just talk about the assassination of Duke Negan."

"This was a premeditated action by some forces in the dark."

“It is sometimes difficult for the Orthodox Church to guard against these rats all the time.”

"But if you are willing to spend some money to make more friends, and your friends happen to find out something unfavorable about you in advance, then it will always be beneficial to your future life."

Lin Nuo knew that he was not a qualified lobbyist, but Earl Hall was an excellent capitalist, so Lin Nuo only mentioned Duke Negan.

"Do you know the truth about the assassination of Duke Negan?"

Count Hall stared at Lin Nuo with sharp eyes.

“I only know what I’m supposed to know.”

"It's only 10 pounds. Earl Hall won't make me run a second time, right?"

"People who will use the money in the future will naturally pay it back."

Lin Nuo said somewhat listlessly.

He really didn't want to go back and forth over a little money.

"If you need me to transfer the money to an account it can be done quickly."

"If you need cash you may have to wait a while."

"You know, 10 pounds isn't a lot, but it's not a small amount either."
