The Devil's Secretary

Chapter 215: A magnanimous person

He sneered, "Do you think they will have the audacity to stand in front of our mansion just like that? Can’t you see that there is someone behind this?"

Even if their insides were hollow but Si Family still had a foundation that the authorities would not dare to tamper with just like that. Before acting on it, they would at least reach out to him to discuss the countermeasures and other things.

Yet, at this time, they were standing at his door and they had his son detained at the hospital while he was being treated. And all this while, he did not have the slightest clue about these things.

That only implied one thing. There was a bigger hand controlling these events and like puppets, they were being played by that hand.

The realization made a chill spread in his heart.

"It must be that bitch. It must be her!" Mrs. Si’s eyes were like that of a crazed beast, "Back in the days, when she came over, I treated her so well. She was like a neglected child in her family and I had the Chef prepare her favorite food for her every time. But this is how that slut decided to repay!"

"You treated her well because you knew she was the legitimate heiress of Chens, favored or unfavored, and hence, eventually she would take over her rightful position. Your daughter treated her well by selling her child," Mr. Si sneered as he spoke, "Framing her outside is another thing. We can tarnish her reputation according to the situation but there is no point in being delusional behind closed doors." freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

He did not see the point in victimizing themselves at this point instead of coming up with a solution that would rescue them from this situation. freēwebnovel.com

Moreover, revenge was the last thing on his mind. Even if Daisy did it, so what? What can they do to her? Daisy Chen alone would be enough to take them down if they confronted her without any schemes but what scared him even more was the man who had appeared and protected her yesterday.

With those two standing side by side, it would be good if they did not die in their sleep.

"M-Master, what should we do?" the butler stuttered.

Mr. Si did not pay attention to his wife who was sobbing for her son.

"There is no point in delaying things. I will meet the police authorities..."

He had just taken a step forward when there were sounds of approaching footsteps.

Shadows flashed near the door of the master bedroom.

"Who..." Mr. Si, who had initially thought that they were servants who had come to ask for them, found himself tongue tied when he saw three strangers entering the room.

There were two men and one woman who walked in the middle of them.

Although they were three people, it was not hard to say who was the one in power. It was the woman in the middle of them.

The woman who was leading by one step had her face covered by a veil. She was wearing a traditional chinese qipao. The scarlet red seemed to add an air of evil around her.

If Lu Xian was there, he would have been bewildered to see his new partner in the premises of the Si Family.

With every step the woman took, she seemed to carry a murderous aura deeper into the Si Family.

"W-What... What do you want?"

Mr. Si did not even bother asking who the person was anymore at that point because he felt an impending sense of disaster looming above him.

"Ahhh..." Mrs. Si screamed when one of the men who accompanied the mysterious woman stalked towards her, "How dare you! Do you know who I am?"

She quickly turned to Mr. Si, "Husband... Husband, you deal with this bitch quickly. Our son must be suffering now... We should quickly go find him.."

The woman’s eyes flashed as she sneered, "Hmm, did I say you can leave?" Her voice was almost airy, barely audible but every word that came out of her mouth was bone-chilling for some reason.

The way she looked at them was like she was looking at dead people.

Mr. Si felt his heart tremble. He paid no attention to his wife who was shouting at him to deal with this newcomer.

It was not that he did not want to deal with her. Who did not love their life?

He just realized that there was nothing he could do when he remembered that there were authorities at the entrance of this mansion.

Then, how did this woman make her way to the master bedroom so boldly? First, she must be in cahoots with the authorities but then he had a feeling that she was not. Or else, why had the butler not mentioned seeing her with them?

The butler’s reactions clearly revealed that he was seeing this woman for the first time.

Then the second possibility was that this woman entered the mansion right under the nose of those authorities and they had no idea about it.

Mr. Si gulped, heart trembling, "What is it that you want, Young Lady?" Despite his inner turmoil, he calmed himself as he spoke, "You seem like a magnanimous person and I don’t know what sin I have committed to incur your wrath?"

The woman laughed. The sound of her laughter was like the sonorous ringing of bells. Yet, for some reason, it sounded eerie, like the echoes of ghostly wails in a cave in the depth of wilderness.

It evoked a fear, an uncontrollable trepidation in the hearts of the people present there.

"Magnanimous?" the woman raised her hand and wiped a drop of tear from the corner of her eyes, "Right. I am magnanimous and since you have mentioned my magnanimity like this, I will do you a favor."

As she spoke, she turned around and walked out of the room.

Mr. Si gulped again, wiping the cold sweat with one hand as he saw the woman retreating. Her guards also followed behind her out of the room.
