Chapter 13: Chapter 13 : Meeting Grandma

After leaving the room, Victor was led to another hall where he should wait for his father until he finishes his duties before they can head back. Ron and a few other participants were already there, busy socializing.
It seemed that Ron hid the fact that he was just a semi-player.
Victor did not disturb them, and neither did they care about him. They were too busy sucking up to Ron.

Victor sat down, and Lily naturally sat on his lap without him asking her to.

“Not bad, this girl is a fast learner,” he thought,

Then he asked one servant for a pen and a piece of paper, which he folded and put in his pocket after writing a few words on it.

After a few minutes, an assistant soon came with a letter for Victor from his father, telling him that he would be staying here till the morning and that Victor should leave by himself and wait for him in the private villa down the mountain. Victor naturally knew the place, so he thanked the assistant and quickly headed outside with Lily.

The Ceremony began in the late afternoon, but it was already dark when they came out. Looking at the bright full moon illuminating the empty mountain road, he couldn’t help but look at the sky and laugh loudly.
Victor may have appeared composed, but he was very nervous all the time, if anything went wrong inside, he might have ended up as a corpse.

Lily looked at him strangely, but she can understand his situation, As a direct heir he was under great pressure and now he seems to have been relieved after fulfilling the expectations of his family. she thought.

“Congratulation, Young master,” she said with a big smile.

Victor looked at her and smiled, then slapped her on her butt and started walking up the mountain, which made her face turn red in shame, this new young master of her is a bully, so she wanted to change the subject before her young master gets any other strange ideas, but suddenly she noticed a very strange thing “Young master, Your esteemed father has ordered us to go down the mountain, may I inquire why are we heading up ?” she asked.

Victor stopped walking then turned around to examine her, then slapped her butt again and continued climbing up. this made Lily’s eyes tear up because of the injustice. she didn’t do anything wrong, why slap her.

Just before Lily, who was wondering if she should ask, opens her mouth, Victor spoke “ I am heading up the mountain because of you,” he said solemnly.

Lily was surprised “Because of me! Why?” she asked in wonder, but he answered her with a serious question “Do you want to keep following me or would you prefer to follow my grandfather, the so-called patriarch, I am sure he would welcome you with open arms and will not let you suffer any injustice if I were to give you to him. So me or him whom do you prefer? Answer truthfully, no need for hesitation nor fear, no matter what answer you choose, I won’t get angry.” He said while facing forward And kept walking, not letting her see his expression.

She pondered for a second then answered firmly. “No matter what, I am young master’s belonging, and I don’t want to be touched by any other,” she continued with a faint blush on her face “The moment young master saved me and helped me exact revenge I was already his,” she said with her beautiful voice.

Victor knew from experience that she did not lie, she was telling the truth, and that made him feel really touched.

“Young master, according to the rules no matter what the patriarch wants does not matter, it is your choice. Right?” she asked with little tears in the corners of her eyes “Does the young master wish to get rid of me ?”

The answer she was expecting did not come, but another spank on her butt did, a heavy one this time. she almost let out a shameful voice.

“Young master, you promised you will not get angry!” she exclaimed in shame.

“I am not angry,” he said while continuing his climb up the mountainous road, “ It is just that this situation is very tricky, and I know that guy will never give up,”

“You mean the Patriarch!?” she exclaimed at the rude way her young master was calling his grandfather.

“Who else.” He said.

So she interjected, “But the family rules...”

“Ha ha, The Rules have always had exceptions, and there are always back doors, just like how I saved you from a certain death earlier today,” He said, and that made Lily a little shocked, if it is like that, her situation is really tricky so... “ Young master, you can give up on me,” she said with a downcast tone.

“No, there is a better method.” He firmly answered then stopped and looked her in the eyes “Lily, let me ask you a question, Do you know why most of the world’s great leaders have secret mistresses or second wives ?”

“Because, they have the power, the wealth, and no one would say no to them,” she answered truthfully.

“Exactly, Then why is it that my grandfather, the patriarch of one of the greatest families, he who can replace any president or king with a flick of his finger, only have one wife ?” he asked with a smirk.

“Is it family tradition or is he deeply in love with your grandmother?” she wanted to ask but then she corrected herself “No, all the elders and pure-bloods have numerous wives and lovers. so it can’t be it, and all of them have favorite wives and that did not stop them from having others.” she thought with a soft voice. Then she got an idea but did not find the courage to say it because it was too outrageous.

so Victor said it for her “Exactly, He is afraid of his wife,” he said, and that made Lily turn around to see if anyone around heard them.

“Don’t worry, I already used my skill so no one can hear us” he said, he has already begun using his disguise skill to hide their voice when they started their trip. as the mountain is crawling with family secret guards.

Lily sighed with relief, “Young master, don’t scare me like that again. such matters could cause our death.” She said as she have already discovered all the hidden eyes around them using her Area Inspect skill.

“He He,” He laughed “If we want to restrain any schemes of my dear grandfather we have to act before he gets a chance to weave his web, so do you know where are we going ?” He asked.

“To Meet your esteemed grandmother?” she asked while tilting he head.

“To meet Grandma.” Victor confirmed with a smile that did not reach his eyes.
