Mireille’s eyes were filled with tears.
Duncan embraced Mireille tightly and said with confidence, “Don’t cry.
Tell me what happened. I’ll make your troubles go away!”
If it were before, he would never have made a promise to his beloved
woman so easily.
However, even the Ten Families in Capiton were no longer his
concern.
The two walked into the vi courtyard.
Mireille could not help but tremble when she saw the ghoul overlord
tied to an evergreen tree with talismans all over his body.
Duncan said softly, “Don’t be afraid, he won’t hurt you!”
They went into the living room.
Mireille saw Boris sprawled on the table and Peter lying on t
with half-closed eyes.
In the previous phone call, Angelica mentioned there were three
experts in Duncan’s family. They should be these three.
“Tell me what happened. Who is your grandfather forcing you to
marry?”
Duncan helped Mireille sit on the sofa and asked softly.
Mireille sniffed as she made up a lie about her grandfather forcing
her to marry Larry.
Duncan narrowed his eyes slightly. “What century are we in now? Do
the elders still have the final say in marriage matters?”
While talking, Duncan kept paying attention to Mireille’s face.
In fact, he did not believe Mireille.
He had captured Mireille before and expressed his love for her, but she merely sneered at him and
even ran away secretly.
Now that she came up to him abruptly, it made him even more
suspicious.
Mireille burst into tears and said, “Since I was little… my grandpa would always listen to me, but he
almost hit me because of this
marriage!”
Duncan felt distressed to see Mireille crying sadly, but he could not believe her easily.
“Burp… Cheers…”
Peter suddenly opened his eyes and burped, staring straight at Mireille.
Mireille trembled slightly and quickly lowered her head.
Peter fell off the chair. While sprawled on the ground, he started snoring.
Duncan turned his head and looked at the bodyguards. “Help them to their rooms to rest!”
Several bodyguards stepped forward and picked up the three men.

Duncan lit a cigarette and took a deep breath. He stared at Mireille with his dark eyes with a smirk on
his face. He asked, “Was it Nash who asked you toe?”
Today, Peter took away the Eight-Part Scepter that Nash wanted, and tomorrow was the day of the
duel between Nash and The Swordsman.
Nash must be eager to retrieve the Eight-Part Scepter. He knew that
Duncan liked Mireille, so he asked Mireille to steal the Eight-Part
Scepter.
Mireille looked at Duncan in confusion and asked, “Why would Nash

get the Eight-Part Scepter!”
“I don’t know what that is!”
Mireille shook her head.
Then, she stood up and said, “It’s gettingte. I have to go home!”
She then walked out the door.
Duncan was too cautious.
He had even figured out her purpose.
She would be exposed sooner orter if she kept pushing it.
“Wait a minute…”
Duncan suddenly called out.
Mireille was stunned at the door.

He stood up and walked to the dining table.
He picked up the white package that Peter had put on the table,
walked toward Mireille, and handed the package over. “Take it. This is
what Nash wants!”
Mireille stared nkly at the package in Duncan’s hand.
Smiling, Duncan said, “I’ve never been in love, and I don’t know how to
please you. Since you’re willing to help Nash get this thing, I’ll just
give it to you!”
Mireille raised her head and stared at Duncan. She yelled angrily, “Are
you crazy?”
With that, she turned around and walked out.
She knew that Duncan was testing her.
If she had taken the Eight-Part Scepter, she would definitely not be
able to leave the Duerson Vi.
Duncan looked at Mireille’s back as she was leaving. He let his
guard and quickly caught up to Mireille. He grabbed Mireille
