Chapter 1462 - 1456: Have You Ever Seen Such Tacit Understanding Between a Man and His Sister-in-law?
"Madam, please have a cup of tea." Mrs. Xu placed the teacup in front of Violet Zimmerman, who furrowed her brow again, "Just set it down for now."
Mrs. Xu glanced back at Daemon Lancaster on the sofa, who nodded indifferently. Only then did Mrs. Xu put the teacup down and headed toward the kitchen with the teapot.
"Joseph, have this tea to sober up." Daemon Lancaster picked up two cups of tea, handing one to Joseph Lancaster and keeping one for himself.
Joseph Lancaster opened his eyes, took the tea, blew on it, and drank it.
Watching Joseph drink the entire cup of tea, Daemon Lancaster glanced sideways at his brother Michael Lancaster, both sharing a knowing smile, and then proceeded to drink his tea.
Mrs. Xu came out again with the tea tray, refilled tea for the three men, and Daemon Lancaster helped Joseph Lancaster with his teacup once more.
"Joseph, you’re quite drunk, have some more tea."
"Thank you, brother," Joseph Lancaster reached out for the teacup.
Soon, Aunt Zhang also came out with a bowl of sobering soup, approaching Violet Zimmerman and softly called out.
"Madam, have some soup, you’ll feel better."
Violet Zimmerman opened her eyes, took the bowl of sobering soup, and sipped it slowly.
On the long sofa, Daemon Lancaster raised an eyebrow and smiled, asking, "Aunt Zhang, why didn’t you prepare some for us brothers as well?"
"Master, it’s ready, there’s enough for everyone, I’ll bring it out now." Aunt Zhang promised as she was about to head back to the kitchen, but was stopped by Daemon Lancaster with a laugh.
He pushed himself off the sofa and stood up, "No need, it’s late, we’ll be leaving."
After standing up, he called out to Gabriel Lancaster, "Third brother, let’s go, we should leave and not disturb your sister-in-law’s rest!"
Joseph Lancaster closed his eyes and leaned into the sofa, subtly curling his lips. Though they were brothers, they didn’t call him to leave with them.
Even the heart of Sima Zhao was known to all.
Daemon Lancaster and Gabriel Lancaster got up and left together. As they passed by Violet Zimmerman, Daemon Lancaster raised his voice, "Sister-in-law, we’re leaving, rest early!"
"Yes, take care," Violet Zimmerman forced a smile and then instructed Aunt Zhang.
"Aunt Zhang, help see them out."
Just as Aunt Zhang was about to move, Daemon Lancaster raised his hand with a carefree refusal.
"No need, we’re all family, no need to be formal."
Aunt Zhang was a bit displeased with Daemon Lancaster’s usual behavior and, hearing him say so, didn’t actually escort them out, standing there with polite words, "Take care, both of you."
"Sure, no problem!"
Daemon Lancaster walked out with his arm around Michael Lancaster’s shoulder, steps unsteady and his form slightly swaying. However, once they were out of the gate, his dazed eyes immediately cleared.
Looking back at Violet Zimmerman’s residence, a smirk of successful scheming appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Michael Lancaster also turned to glance, lowering his voice to ask, "Brother, will it work?"
Daemon Lancaster sneered, "Humph, we saw him drink it, how could it be false?"
Michael Lancaster was still a bit uneasy.
"What if..."
Before he could finish, Daemon Lancaster interrupted him with another sneer, saying, "If Violet Zimmerman were having an affair with him, she wouldn’t just watch him suffer!"
"But what if there’s nothing?" Michael Lancaster’s biggest concern was that if nothing was happening, their plan would be ruined.
Under the streetlight, Daemon Lancaster turned his eyes toward him, revealing disdain.
"Nothing?" Daemon Lancaster retorted, followed by another cold chuckle.
"Have you ever seen such harmony between an uncle and sister-in-law?"
With just a glance, a movement, they understand what the other wants, even he and his wife Victoria Thornton might not have such a high level of sync.
