Chapter 941: Duke Moville, Don’t You Owe Me an Explanation?

Chapter 941: Duke Moville, Don’t You Owe Me an Explanation?

Duke Moville was stunned speechless by her reasonable words which, however, made him understand something.

Firstly, he learned that Avrora had fallen off her horse, simply because it got frustrated and refused to continue galloping. Secondly, Wen Xinya was just trying to say that it had nothing to do with her because she had already reached the finish line at that point in time. Thirdly, he also learned that Avrora had sprained her ankle while Wen Xinya suffered an arm injury, which made her a victim as well. Fourthly, Wen Xinya had nothing to do with the matter because Avrora was the one who initiated the competition.

However, Duke Moville obviously wouldn’t think that she truly did not have anything to do with Avrora falling off the horse, though the fact that she could say it to his face meant that she was speaking the truth. Hence, he had lost the right to pursue the matter.

More likely than not, the matter will have to be swept under the carpet as with the incident involving Anatoli!

Duke Moville pulled a long face as he thought to himself, This Chinese woman is too sly and cunning. Her words and actions are so reasonable on the surface that I can’t even find any flaws in them. Even Avrora was set up by her.

A cold and menacing stare formed in his eyes.

At this moment, Si Yiyan shot Duke Moville a glance and questioned, “Duke Moville, what did you mean by saying those words? Are you trying to put the blame on Bella? Isn’t it normal for humans and horses to have slip-ups every now and then?”

He looked a little infuriated. When they were beating around the bush and being sarcastic to each other just now, they were still rather polite about it. However, they now looked upset, and it was obvious that Si Yiyan was indeed enraged.

Despite having lived past several decades, Duke Moville had never seen such a formidable and domineering person before. Compared to the airs that the pretentious aristocrats often put on, he looked much fiercer and threatening. It was as if he was born with that commanding aura.

Si Yiyan’s aura was just like a large boulder being pressed against Duke Moville’s chest, making him feel weak and overwhelmed.

He planned to just let the matter slide.

However, Rex clearly wanted to pursue it.

Duke Moville frantically said, “Rex, don’t get the wrong idea. I was just worried about my granddaughter, so I lost control of my speech. I don’t have any other intentions. Please don’t take it to heart, Rex.”

Si Yiyan said coldly, “I left Bella in Miss Avrora’s care because I trusted you guys. Yet, Bella came back with injuries. I’d like to ask for your explanation, Duke Moville.”

Si Yiyan gripped his glass of liquor tightly in a menacing manner as a huge tension formed in the air.

Wen Xinya frantically said, “I’m not that severely injured…”

Si Yiyan glared daggers at Wen Xinya, who quickly kept quiet.

This was a Chinese art of communication where one would pretend to be the bad guy while the other pretended to be nice.

Duke Moville said with a slight frown, “It’s definitely our responsibility since Miss Bella got injured in our premises. However, Avrora has also fallen off the horse. Rex…”

Si Yiyan sneered. “What has Avrora’s injury got to do with me? What does Bella have to do with it?”

The mask on his face made him look extremely proud and condescending. It was as if he was trying to say, “What does the wellbeing of others have to do with me?”

Lying in Si Yiyan’s arms, Wen Xinya thought to herself, I knew Si Yiyan wouldn’t let this matter go. However, I didn’t expect him to question Duke Moville on the spot.

Duke Moville grimaced in displeasure, unable to hide his emotions despite having good manners.

Refusing to budge, Si Yiyan said, “Miss Avrora obviously knew that horseback riding is a dangerous sport and yet, she still dragged Bella into it. I understand that Russian women enjoy riding horses, but Miss Avrora is familiar with Chinese culture. I’m sure she knows that Chinese women are gentler and meeker. They prefer to be quiet and rarely take part in such activities. What intentions does she have for making Bella compete with her?”

Duke Moville was too audacious to have allowed Avrora to hurt Wen Xinya. He felt a need to pursue the matter.

Si Yiyan’s stern words made Duke Moville break out into cold sweat. Unable to stand it anymore, he said, “Since Miss Bella has gotten injured here, we definitely owe her an explanation. But Rex, aren’t you overreacting? Miss Bella is about the same age as Avrora and they’re both young girls. It’s only normal for them to cross the line and get too carried away while playing with each other. Isn’t it a bit too severe to say that Avrora harbored ill intentions?”

Rex indeed values this Miss Bella greatly. She has merely sustained a wound on her arm and yet, he’s already so riled up and insistent on hearing an explanation. This woman is Avrora’s greatest stumbling block.

A cold and menacing look formed in his eyes.

Although Duke Moville sounded reasonable, Si Yiyan obviously wouldn’t accept his explanation. Si Yiyan could subdue anyone he wanted at all times.

Si Yiyan retorted coldly. “In that case, Duke Moville, can you explain how Bella sustained that wound on her arm? Did she hurt herself?”

His words jeopardized Duke Moville’s plan. He swallowed his pride and said, “Avrora has also…”

Chuckling sarcastically and coldly, Si Yiyan interjected. “Didn’t Bella already say that Avrora was the one who fell off the horse herself and that it has nothing to do with Bella? However, Bella obviously didn’t injure herself.” He then glanced at Wen Xinya and asked concernedly, “Baby, how did you get the wound on your arm?”

After some humming and hawing, Wen Xinya answered, “Miss Bella didn’t do it on purpose. It’s not a major wound, anyway. Why don’t…”

Si Yiyan interrupted her and stared at Duke Moville. “Duke Moville, don’t you owe me an explanation?”

He was invited to Duke Moville’s banquet and yet, the latter’s granddaughter injured Wen Xinya. He was clearly going against Si Yiyan indirectly.

He wouldn’t spare anyone who hurt Wen Xinya, even if they were prestigious Russian aristocrats.

Staring at the wound on Wen Xinya’s arm, Duke Moville said, “Rex, we still don’t know what exactly happened. After all, this is only a one-sided story from Miss Bella.” Noticing the icy cold gaze in Si Yiyan’s eyes, he frantically said, “Of course, I’m not saying that I don’t trust Miss Bella. However, we ought to make things clear before coming to a conclusion, don’t we?”

He believed that Avrora wouldn’t hurt others for no reason and that there was definitely something more to the matter.
