- Alice's cake
As he was thinking, the secretary squatted down to tie up them. Suddenly, he heard footsteps. He turned around in surprise and saw that there were already a lot of people standing there, holding guns and looking at him.
"Who are you?"
The secretary was stunned.
The Cullen Family should not have additional strength left. All of the people David arranged for them to wait outside had already been captured.
"You are underestimating the Cullen Family." The leader of the bodyguards said, "We were sent by the Second Young Master."
They were the true support of power. If David's attempt to save him failed, and they would be responsible for saving him.
The place was densely packed with people. Just like the tunnel, the tunnel seemed endless.
"Impossible, your Cullen Family can arrange so many people? There are a lot of people that William has brought to the meeting!" the secretary said.
It was not because William had brought a few hundred elites with him when he went to meet them. How could he still have so many people?
That's impossible.
"You mean the people that Second Young Master brought?" Those people all laughed, "My apologies, isn't it similar for Cullen Family's farmers and servants to wear bodyguard uniforms?"
"What did you say?"
The secretary was completely shocked. If that was the case, then William did not even have someone who could fight at his side, then just Young Master Peter's men alone would be enough to kill William to vent the hatred in Mr. Lancaster's heart.
He reacted by picking up his phone and was about to report when a bodyguard shot his phone off.
"Bam."
A loud sound echoed out.
A bloody wound appeared on the secretary's hand, causing him to retreat a few steps. Those people laughed and said, "You underestimate us too much. When we come in at this moment, we will naturally win. How can we let you know? Take Eldest Young Master and Dr. Lambert away quickly."
Seeing this scene, Lambert couldn't help but exclaim once again at William's intelligence and boldness. He actually dared to bring a group of farmers and servants to meet his enemies.
The Lancaster people would probably be so angry.
Someone came up to open the cell door, and someone shouted, "This is bad, Eldest Young Master is severely injured, what should we do? Where is our doctor? "
'Tm the doctor. I'll cure the bleeding wound for him first."
He had been hungry for a long time. Even though his footsteps were light, he still walked towards David without caring about anything else, helping him to check on his injuries.
Outside the manor, the media was waiting for the breaking news.
Inside the manor, there were countless bodyguards of the two families. Both sides looked at each other with serious faces, standing still even under the sun.
The sun outside was bright, but inside was a warm spring breeze. Everyone was sitting upright, William drank his coffee and looked down at Alice's slender fingers, listening to Lancaster's lawyer recite the words in his ear non-stop. All the conditions were so detailed that even the antiques that had been snapped by a relative a few years ago had been written on them, requesting for them to give up.
The sixteen-year-old Peter was almost drowsy as he sat by the side and listened. He woke up under the guidance of the people around him each time and then pretend to be serious listening.
"So boring." William put down the coffee cup in his hands and yawned, then looked at Alice: "It's been a long time since I've wasted doing such a silly thing."
He was actually listening to his Cullen Family's expropriation fee, and it was really boring.
"I knew you would be bored, so I prepared something for you."
Alice said with a smile.
"What is it?"
William was suddenly in high spirits.
Alice indicated towards Frank, who nodded her head. After a while, a servant walked over with various kinds of pastries and placed the fine pastries in between William and Alice.
William's eyes immediately lit up, he immediately picked up a piece of cake and put into his mouth, "When did you make this?"
"In the morning, when you were still in the study."
Alice smiled and said, "I want to bring them along in case you are hungry."
She was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control his emotions when he arrives here. If he liked to eat the food she cooked, then she would make it.
"Alice, you really know me!" William raised the corner of his mouth, swept away the knot from before and started to eat. Alice pointed to the strawberries on the dish and said, "You can eat this.
He turned his head when he smelled the fragrance, and saw William eating an exquisite cake. There were a lot of levels to the cake, and every piece of cake was his favorite.
It seemed to be very tasty.
Peter pursed his lips.
This scene appeared in Alice's line of sight.
The lawyer was still talking. He had been reading for an hour and still hadn't finished.
Lancaster's people were speechless looking at William and Alice. How did this seem like they were here to seek reconciliation? They simply did not put their families in their eyes.
Now that William was asking for help, what was there to be afraid of?
Thinking of this, a lawyer stood out and was about to speak when Alice already stood up, picked up a piece of exquisite cake, walked to Peter and smiled at him. "I'll treat you."
"This is mine!"
William's shout scared Lancaster's lawyer and immediately shut his mouth. Everyone looked at William who had a terrible complexion.
Everyone was silent.
