She Is Not a Witch
Chapter 109
At night, the Caritas.
In the mansion built of purple tiles and white stone bricks, people walk around. The dim candle light is replaced by a new candle by a servant, which is more and brighter.
"Where''s the first lady, chief chambermaid? We have an urgent report
A middle-aged steward asked anxiously. There were many people standing in the brightly lit hall, including the steward of the chamber of Commerce headquarters, the workshop owner, the guard captain, and many other people who came to report.
The business scope of the chamber of commerce is very wide, and it is easy to receive all kinds of information and notices. Although the establishment time of caritus is shorter than other chambers, it has attracted a group of people with interests as a link in recent years.
After discovering the abnormality of the other three, these small chambers of Commerce or individuals who usually make friends with Carites have news.
No one expected that in this happy night full of festival atmosphere, the other party would suddenly make trouble, and it was at night, which really disturbed many people''s hearts.
At present, the headquarters of caritis chamber of Commerce has already been mobilized. Those who came home from work or slept before were called up again and gathered in the courtyard. The door of the chamber of Commerce was closed and no one was allowed to enter or leave at will.
However, since the owner of the family was not present, and Angus and Ray had no other family members, no one made a decision on how to deal with them
"I''m sorry, the first lady said she wanted to go shopping and see the night market. She''s already out and not at home."
"Is the young lady accompanied by guards?" Another steward asked anxiously.
"No," he said The maid answered concisely.
"What can we do? We can''t get in touch with the first lady now. In case something happens to her, what should we do for caritus..."
Several stewards walked anxiously around, sighing from time to time.
Although some of the people in the hall were restless and some sighed, the maid was still standing quietly in the middle, like a bridge pillar in a turbulent River, motionless and self-conscious, and didn''t seem to worry about Lacey''s safety.
And the performance of this senior member of the chamber of commerce also made the people in the hall a little more stable and gained some psychological comfort. Sometimes no news is not bad news.
Chelsea''s own strength is probably around the third in the series. Although there is no room for improvement, the victory lies in rich experience.
In fact, she didn''t know the real strength of her eldest daughter, but it was certain that Lacey must be better than her, which came from the careful observation in her life.
Lacey''s breathing rate is extremely stable at ordinary times. Although the first lady doesn''t have to do heavy work, she can''t breathe all day long even when she visits the workshop of the chamber of Commerce. She usually walks with light feet. She never has instability or mistakes. This kind of thing is easy to maintain in one or two days, but it''s extraordinary if she hasn''t made a mistake in a whole few months.
As long as the young lady has the ability of self-protection and keen observation, she will come back when she finds something wrong in the city. Chelsea have great confidence in this.
"Report, my Lord. The emissary of the Hollis family has come. The official document with seal on his hand should be true."
A valet trotted into the hall and announced the news.
The five major chambers of Commerce infiltrate each other. At this critical moment, it is difficult to win the trust of others by just one person''s message. When we hear that there are official documents, all the people present will pay attention to them.
"Bring the messenger in."
Just as the people in the hall were guessing what the message was, a soft and ethereal voice sounded from the stairs. Lorraine hill, wearing a red dress, walked slowly down the stairs and then said.
"Yes, miss!" The Chamberlain left the hall quickly, ready to bring the messenger in. The return of Lorraine hill made the chamber of Commerce have the backbone immediately, and everyone''s hanging heart was also put down.
The spacious hall has been covered with red carpet, and a luxurious seat has been brought in by the attendants.
In the middle of the golden wall, there are black petals and purple pistil lacquer night flowers. Under the huge flowers, there is a white throne. Purple flower rivets are arranged on the soft velvet seat back. The armrest is also purple sandalwood, which is very luxurious.
This throne was specially created by Angus at that time. The purpose is to show the identity and face of the callites family. It will only be used on major occasions.
Lorraine Hill sat on the white and purple throne with his hands on the armrest. In the front two rows of his body stood the high-rise of caritus, about 40 people.
The previous scene of confusion and anxiety is now swept away. The leaders of the chamber of commerce are calmly and neatly arranged, waiting for the messenger''s visit and the order of Lorraine hill. Chelsea, on the other hand, are on the left side of Lorraine hill. On the right side, there used to be Ceres, but it is still empty.
A group of people in brown and copper armor dismounted in the courtyard, and then the leader was allowed to enter the hall after the inspection.
The emissary was a little anxious and uneasy, but when he entered the hall, the scene in front of him immediately calmed him down.
The resplendent hall is decorated with gorgeous relief and small-scale color paintings. The exquisite chandeliers are hanging from the ceiling. Two teams of bodyguards are closely arranged near the wall of the hall. These bodyguards are well-equipped. They are dressed in purple capes with black painted night flowers on the back of the capes. The steel mask on their face has been pulled down long ago, and they are ready to attack with one hand pressing the sword.
In the middle of the hall are the high-rise platoon chamber of Commerce, each of which has a black petal and purple pistil on the left chest, symbolizing identity and glory. At the moment, they also look self-confident and strong, just like Chelsea just now.
In the middle of the hall, the girl on the white and purple throne, just like a character in a fairy tale, has dreamy posture and face, blue as the clear eyes of the sky. She looks at the messenger who steps into the hall, but her gentle eyes are like substance. He dare not breathe, so he can only bow his head and move forward carefully. This short ten meters seems to have passed a century.
"Dear Lord Lacey, I am the emissary of the Hollis family. On behalf of today''s family, I come to announce the urgent news."
"Did Meru send you the message?" There was an ethereal sound coming from the front.
"Yes, Lord Merlot has specially asked me to convey it to Lord Lacey myself."
"Is there an official document?"
"Yes, please." The messenger handed the letter to the valet, who presented it to Chelsea, who opened it for inspection before presenting it to Lorraine hill.
On the way back, Lorraine Hill had a general idea of the situation, and this letter clearly indicated the seriousness of the situation.
The other three had made preparations, not on the spur of the moment. They must have been quite sure.
In addition, it is impossible to close the news and face the questions of the industry associations in the future. This shows that they have full confidence to avoid blame.
However, the trade association is jointly formed by 26 major chambers of Commerce. It is impossible to buy off most of its members without any information. In addition, they can not afford to pay the price.
So it''s very likely that the business alliance in Vega will change, and it''s very unlikely to expect the help of the chambers of Commerce in other cities.
Finally, the end of the letter shows that the Helios are willing to continue to stand with caritus and tide over the difficulties as they did many years ago.
It was signed by Meru, the owner of the Hollis house, and the bright red seal of Camellia.
