Chapter: Chapter 121
"Woo woo woo?" Arthur covered his face and pretended to be a monster, trying to get away with it, but the other party was not fooled at all. "Do you still remember your grand wish?" Seeing him like this, Mia smiled slightly and whispered the devil to herself, "You said that when you grow up, you will take back what Patricia took from you, but you don't want to learn anything now. What can you rely on to fight against her when you grow up?" Do you really think that you can completely take back your power by relying on the status of the earl? Although my cheap grandfather did a lot of immoral things, he was also an excellent graduate of a decent public school and university. No matter what he studied, his grades were indeed good, and his political skills were not bad. If it weren't for the appearance of Arthur, an heir who was easier to control and manipulate, he might not have died so quickly! But what does Arthur have? All kinds of relationship networks were physically isolated I

Chapter: Chapter 120
"You just let her go?" Old Lady Leamington wanted to scream. She didn't understand why the housekeeper, who was always shrewd, was so confused about this matter. If Mia was going to leave here, wouldn't she put a few servants around her? Old Lady Leamington, who was already exhausted by the London incident, was about to faint from anger at the housekeeper. She had clearly told her to take good care of Mia and not let her feel dissatisfied, but did she take care of her like this? But the housekeeper also felt very wronged, "I have met all of Miss Marina's requirements according to your requirements... ..." The other party was simply domineering in the Meckhill Manor during this period of time. She had everything she wanted, and she never refuted her opinions. On the contrary, this lady often gave her the cold shoulder for no reason. She endured it all, so how could it not be considered taking good care of her? "You!" Old Lady Leamington looked at the housekeeper's aggrieved face a

Chapter: Chapter 119
To be honest, Mia is a very generous employer. She never minds spending money, and she is very generous, as if there is no gate. But the price of not caring about spending money is that her demands are also high. In order to withstand the strong winds of the Scottish Highlands, the building materials used in this manor, which has been hundreds of years old, are stone. Even though the building has been constantly maintained and renovated over the years and has become more and more modern and comfortable, it is still a property that the previous Earl of Lymington did not like. This has led to the fact that since he bought it, Luworth has not been renovated on a large scale, and of course there is no mention of replacing some items here. For example, when many places in London have already used electricity, Luworth is still a place that uses candles and kerosene lamps. This alone requires a lot of effort to re-lay the pipes, not to mention that Mia is not interested in things like fir

Chapter: Chapter 118
I am not good, but others are worse than me. This cognition makes Mycroft feel much more balanced. At least he is still Mia's ally, but old lady Leamington does not have this treatment. I don't know what kind of mood this old lady will be under the double attack from both inside and outside. "What a dirty politician." Sherlock commented on his dear brother. Since becoming a government employee, his brother's heart seems to be getting darker and darker. It's okay to plant his own people in the ally's house, but now he is gloating over the situation of another ally. This is not a problem of black heart, but a problem of heart becoming ink! "Dirty politicians provide you with house rent and shelter." Mycroft accepted his brother's ridicule in full and was very proud. "And this alliance is originally a layer on top of a layer. Without Mrs. Leamington in the middle, I can spend less time and have less pain." This is what Mycroft is most dissatisfied with. Cooperation still has to be s

Chapter: Chapter 117
"You're not going to cause trouble again, are you?" Mars was stunned. Please, my Lord Duke, how long have you just killed Emeril Leamington? Now you want to kill Broussard Leamington again? "Why not?" Lionel shrugged, "Anyway, he's not a good person. Many of the natives in Africa died at his hands. I'm getting rid of harm for the people~" By using the name of the Leamington family, this gentleman has made a lot of money for himself. He colluded with the local garrison to sweep through tribes one by one, and they were all exterminated! So he said that the roots of the Leamington family are rotten, and there is no good person. "I don't know when you have such a strong sense of justice." Mars almost didn't recognize the person in front of him, and suspected that he was cast a spell. And the person who cast the spell was Miss Marina Leamington. But even if the lady is a beauty, the scar on her face also ruins her beauty. Is it really worth it for him to do this? Mars thought so and

Chapter: Chapter 116
The nature of this world is so ugly. Most of the time, power and influence will make people's desires expand infinitely, until they finally get out of control and do things that can no longer be undone. He is of course no exception. Whoever hurts him must pay double the price, this is his principle. But today he met a very interesting person, he can return some kindness to this accident. "What terrible thing did you think of again?" Mars, who had already stopped and didn't want to get to the bottom of it, felt the joyful atmosphere emanating from Lionel, but still couldn't control his gossipy mentality and asked. This young master killed a whole family in Austria. He killed people just like he killed ants. He was so quick and decisive that he almost suspected that he had some psychological problems. That was why he was so calm when doing this job. "How could it be a terrible thing?" Lionel looked at Mars in surprise and refuted his nonsense, "I was obviously doing good things!"
