Chapter 1455 - 1449: Drive Them All Out
"Hmph!" Another cold laugh, Daemon Lancaster turned his dark eyes over, the corners of his lips revealing a slight derision.
Daemon Lancaster was different from the other men in the Lancaster Family. The men of the Lancaster Family had fair skin and standard phoenix eyes, but Daemon was the exception, with a square face, healthy skin tone, and eyes as large as a yak’s.
"Secrets? If not for their family’s maid catching them red-handed, we would still be kept in the dark!"
Hearing Daemon Lancaster say this, Gabriel Lancaster, who had been silent, also raised his phoenix eyes and looked at his elder brother with furrowed brows, showing confusion.
"Brother, what did that woman do that the maid caught her red-handed? Go on, tell us." Michael Lancaster leaned over again, full of gossip.
Daemon Lancaster slapped the ivory chopsticks in his hand onto the dining table, the derision at the corners of his lips even more pronounced.
"Their family’s maid saw that woman having a big quarrel with Joseph Lancaster!"
...
After Daemon finished speaking, Gabriel and Michael, the two brothers, were stunned.
They paused for a moment and spoke simultaneously, but the content of the two brothers was different.
"Brother, is this true?"
"Could the maid have seen it wrong? Or misunderstood something?"
Daemon Lancaster glanced at old Gabriel and sneered, "Seen it wrong? The maid’s eyes are not blurry, how could she see wrong such a thing!"
As soon as Daemon finished speaking, Michael chimed in, slapping his chopsticks on the table with a louder sound than Daemon’s earlier.
He said angrily, "No wonder Gabriel never wanted to marry, turns out he’s having an affair with his sister-in-law! Hmph, this beast!"
"Third brother, don’t jump to conclusions before seeing it with your own eyes." Gabriel frowned in disapproval and reminded.
Michael turned his gaze to him and said with anguish.
"Second brother, what benefits did Joseph give you that you’re still speaking for him? Don’t forget, the few of us are real brothers!"
"Third brother is right." Daemon supported himself on the table with both hands, turned to look at Gabriel, "Second brother, do you think I can pull down the main house with just this?"
Gabriel didn’t answer immediately, picked up a wine cup, and slowly sipped the white spirit, hissed once, and when putting down the wine cup said meaningfully.
"Brother, I think this matter should not be propagated, after all, they are family brothers, if their reputation collapses, it doesn’t look good for us brothers either."
"Reputation?" Daemon repeated coldly, turning to look at Gabriel with a half-smile and asked, "Second brother, are you implying you don’t want to stand on my side?"
Gabriel took a breath, his gaze falling on the table in front of him, "I didn’t say that."
"That’s good!" Daemon pinched the wine cup and tapped it on the table once, in a heroic manner, "Come on, let’s have a drink together, when the time is right I’ll catch dirt on those two, and drive them both out in one go!"
"Brother, wishing you to become the Family Head soon!"
Michael appeared excited, as a family branch, there had always been a sense of being suppressed by the main house.
If his brother became the Family Head, then he would also be officially part of the main house!
After the brothers had finished their drinks, it was already late at night. When Gabriel went back, Catherine Taylor had not yet slept. Seeing Gabriel enter the bedroom, she draped on a coat and got up.
"Been drinking again, want to soak in a bath?"
"It’s late, let’s sleep."
Supported by Catherine, Gabriel came to the bed, Catherine helped him take off his coat, then the shirt buttons.
"What’s the occasion that your elder brother called you guys over?"
"Nothing, just wanted to gather." Gabriel didn’t want to talk about the night’s affairs, Catherine asked casually, "Why wasn’t second master invited to the brothers’ gathering?"
