Looking at the two hundred yuan on the table, I couldn't help but want to laugh.
I looked up at Kathleen Drake and asked with confusion, "Who is Mr. Baton?"
Kathleen pressed her lips together and said, "Mr. Baton comes from a very powerful noble family in Cordelia Kingdom. You can't mess with them. Just go quickly, and I'll buy you dinner when I'm back in Pyro."
After getting the basic facts, I learned that Mr. Baton was a local noble who wanted to force Kathleen into being with him because he had his eye on her.
Against Mr. Baton, Kathleen had no choice but to send her family back to Pyro and deal with the Baton family by herself.
Just as I was about to say something, the door swung open.
Then, a young man with two people came in from outside.
"Tsk tsk." As soon as the young man entered, his eyes landed on me.
"What, stealing my woman while I'm away?" The young man mocked.
Kathleen quickly tried to explain, "Mr. Baton, he's my friend, and he treated my father's sickness..."
