Seeing her agree so quickly, Ruby grew suspicious and added, "Lily Bai! Don't you dare try any tricks! Your home is at the foot of Crane Mountain, and you've got an old mother and two little sisters. If you dare to go against us, just be ready to collect their corpses!"
Oh wow, that's evil!
Grace glanced at her, giving a soft and sweet smile. "Ruby, you know everything about my family, how could I dare play any tricks? Don't worry, I'll go tell the General right away and give you back the Head Maid position!"
That smile didn't faze Ruby, but it sure made her brother weak in the knees.
Lily Bai's fresh and handsome looks really made his heart itch.
"Ha! At least you know how to read the room!" Ruby's brother, oblivious to his own close call with death, said smugly, "Pretty lady, if you want to survive in the General's Manor, giving Ruby back the Head Maid spot isn't enough!"
"Then what else do I need to do?" Grace asked him.
"Tonight, come find me at the guards' camp!" he said, grinning wickedly.
"What for?"
"Ha! To serve me, of course! If you do a good job, I'll make sure you're well rewarded!"
Grace stared at his disgusting face, clenching her fist.
She really wanted to kill him!
Maybe she should just shoot him with an arrow and be done with it?
"Sean Sun, what are you doing?" Suddenly, Louis Lin's voice rang out.
Grace felt like she was hearing music from heaven. She turned and saw Evan Xiao and Louis Lin walking over.
"If you know what's good for you, keep your mouth shut." Sean Sun threatened in a voice only Grace could hear, then walked over with a smile, bowed to Evan Xiao, and said, "General! What brings you here?"
Evan Xiao looked at him coldly, saying nothing.
"Sean Sun, what were you just doing?" Louis Lin asked with a frown.
Ruby's surname is Sun. Her full name is Ruby Sun.
Her brother's name is Sean Sun.
"Heh, that's right. Ruby wanted to introduce her good friend to me, said I should look out for Miss Bai in the future, so we agreed to meet here." As he spoke, Sean Sun turned to look at Grace.
That look in his eyes was full of venom and threat, like a snake ready to strike.
"Is that true, Miss Bai?" Louis Lin asked with concern.
Grace wondered, if she told the truth, would Evan Xiao get angry enough to kick the Sun siblings out or even have them executed?
She wasn't like Cecilia Chen—she didn't have that kind of nerve!
To him, it was just a squabble between two servants. He wouldn't care at all...
Besides, if the Sun siblings denied everything, they might even turn the tables on her. That would be a total loss...
Seeing her hesitate, Louis Lin encouraged, "Miss Bai, don't be afraid. Just tell the truth."
Louis Lin was just. He really gave her positive energy.
Grace gave him a slight smile and said, "Guard Sun is right. Just now, Ruby wanted to introduce me to her brother. That's all."
Hearing this, Ruby finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Sean Sun also looked at her with satisfaction.
Seeing Lily Bai's smiling face, Evan Xiao suddenly turned and walked away.
He could sense people's emotions.
The servant who came looking for Lily Bai was obviously full of malice.
That's why he showed up.
He was afraid Lily Bai would get herself killed.
Cecilia Chen's face still wasn't cured!
But Lily Bai was such an idiot.
She actually covered for them!
He wanted to see if she would really come to him and ask to give Ruby her position back!
And what about going to see Sean Sun tonight?
Ha!
"Eh? General?" Louis Lin followed after him, looking confused. "Weren't you going to stroll in the garden? Changed your mind?"
