Chapter 58: Henry
"But… but young master-"
"I don't drink." he repeated his sentence again.
"Yes, young master." the two women said with a resigned face.
"You can leave now, I don't need you guys."
"Young master, we are here to serve you, please young master. If we had made any mistake, we apologise."
Aur frowned as he looked at the two women with his crimson cold gaze, his crimson pupils were like an inferno of hellfire with no depth to it, the more he looked at them, the more they felt that they were being burned in a cold, chilling fire.
The two women felt a shiver down their spine as their hairs stood up as if electrocuted.
"Y… yes… you… ng.. Master." the two said while shivering and turned around, leaving the room as quickly as possible.
Their footsteps were flustered even after they came out from the room.
"What should we say to the master now?"
One of them voiced with realisation.
Instantly, both of them fell silent as despair slowly etched on their face.
"Master shouldn't punish us too badly as long as we tell the truth, right?"
"I hope you are right." she sighed as they both went upstairs.
...
Aur just sat as he elegantly ate the meat with a fork and a spoon, unlike the environment surrounding him where the stinking scent of alcohol came.
"Brother Aur… *hiccup* *hiccup*... why are you not drinking your wine? You even rejected the two beauties." Leo said with a red face as two beauties were on his lap giving him fine wine.
"It's nothing, brother Leo. I already have beauty by my side, why should I add two more to the fold…" Aur scratched his head with an embarrassed expression as he looked at Lucy.
Seeing the gaze of Aur, Lucy's blush as she meekly avoided his gaze.
"Hahaha, I see you are quite a royal man, brother."
"What can I say?" Aur replied with an embarrassed expression on his face.
"Hahaha."
Leo laughed seeing the antics of Aur, however, internally he had different thoughts, "I didn't know these kids were so naive, tsk tsk."
"You should at least drink some wine, brother Aur. It is already legal for us to drink anyway, and in these tough times, anyone can drink here…" Leo said with a strange smile on his face.
"You are right, I should drink some." Aur said with a nod of his head as he took the glass and took a little sip as if he was really drinking and put down the glass with a frown on his face.
"I don't like the taste, brother. It is bitter while I am still a child who likes sweet dishes." Aur said sheepishly as he rubbed his nose in embarrassment.
"Well, if you don't like it, who am I to force you?" Leo said with a shrug. "But I am telling you, you are missing out on it."
Boom!
Suddenly, the ground shook as if an earthquake had occurred.
Leo jumped up from the ground as if he was immediately sobered up as he looked outside the door with a frown on his face.
The others, still in their drunken stupor, were slow to react while Aur was calmly eating his meat.
"What happened? Did someone make trouble inside the golden restaurant?" Leo said with a frown on his face.
"Let's go take a look." his face morphed into an amused expression as he walked outside while the other drunken people also stood and went outside, although they drank a lot of alcohol, but this much wasn't enough for them to be knocked out.
"Young master, you should go as well."
"Whatever you say, my lady." Aur smiled as he stood up, wrapped his hands around Lucy's waist.
"Eh," Lucy was stunned as her blush enlarged.
"I must say she is a good actor…" Aur internally sneered as he went outside.
The instant he went outside, he saw a crowd of people all in a circle.
"Hmm," Aur's eyes narrowed as he let go of Lucy, "stay here."
He went to the crowd and pushed the people in the crowd with his monstrous raw strength. Everyone was pushed aside as Aur finally had a good view.
Williams was fighting an individual while, besides him, there was a pink-haired girl who was coldly watching this.
"Of course, it is Williams, after all, he is the protagonist…" Aur cursed silently as he looked at Williams' opponent.
The other man was a lean man with glasses on, however, his eyes were widened with shock, and a thin sheet surrounded him, acting like light armour.
"Hmm, Henry?" Aur muttered in surprise. He knew the guy, after all, he was the third elder's son.
"What is this guy fighting Williams for?"
"Williams, don't take these too far. I was just talking to Amelia. Why did you interrupt me and even attack me for no reason…" Henry said with gritted teeth, looking at the crowd surrounding him.
There was also Jack, who was watching these with mockery in his face.
"Do I need a reason to attack a bastard like you?" William asked in a domineering tone.
"You…" Henry was speechless when he heard this.
"So will you apologise or not?" William asked again with an expressionless face, as if he was seeking justice.
"What is the apology for? I did nothing wrong." Henry shouted in a tone of injustice.
"You still dare not admit it?..." Williams' expression turned cold as his blue eyes locked into the man.
"Okay, I will apologise, but what for? First, tell me this…" Henry said with resignation.
"You not only looked at my maid Angel with your lecherous gaze, you also provided discomfort to Miss Amelia. You lustful leech, I should kill you for doing such a heinous crime." Williams' voice was icy as his gaze was full of disgust.
When these words came out of William's mouth, it felt like music to Aur's ears.
"If I hadn't saved that girl previously, you would be even more of a sinner, and from the future I saw, you totally ignored the girl even after knowing you did it…" Aur mused to himself, not like he cared.
He too was a sinner anyway, however, the hypocrisy from Williams' mouth was still amusement to Aur's ears.
"Alright, I apologise for my misconduct, Miss Amelia and Angel." Henry said with an expressionless face.
"Hahaha, Henry is a coward. Just with the name of Williams, he could bow his head." Jack whispered to his friend, and instantly, these words spread faster than a flue, reaching the crowd.
Their mockery towards Henry was evident in their eyes, although they didn't voice it out.
After all, Henry apologising for this was equivalent to accepting the fact that he did do it.
After these people go out, they will undoubtedly spread the news, and Henry will be infamous overnight as a coward and a lustful bastard, even if these people don't spread the news, which is not possible, Jack will surely spread these details far and wide with some minor adjustment, and boom, instantly Henry's reputation will plummet.
Thinking of this, Henry gritted his teeth since he knew Jack quite clearly and how low of a man he was.
