Chapter 244 Dinner At The Christen Estate 1



After hearing those words, Annaliese made an annoyed expression at that man. \'And why would I go out talking about it? Do you guys think I\'m desperate?\'

"Tsk!"

Lothur heard the sound Annaliese\'s tongue made and just took one of her hands, directing her into the estate\'s interior as they followed a guard.

The man who had said those words to them had exaggerated his fears, but this young man understood where that was coming from.

He would also avoid dealing with the Frost family if he were in their place!

The Christen family was a rising bourgeoisie that did not yet have deep relations with the nobility or even royalty of Leopoldine. Thus, they did not have many protections and depended on their reputation to do business with the different parties in the empire\'s political game.

If they were seen as allies of the Frost family, they could lose many of their partners and eventually be forced to do business only with the house of Annaliese.

But House Frost was only one power, which, however great, could not consume all that the Christen family had to offer...

At the same time, while it was terrible to relate to only one power, it would be much worse to relate to a decaying organization that could be overthrown in a matter of years!

Hence, the Christen family wanted distance from Annaliese\'s family to preserve themselves and maintain their current prosperity.

"These people... They are too bold! How can they treat me like that, like... Like I\'m a needy person who needs their help!" She said in a low voice to Lothur while squeezing one of his arms.

"Yes, you are right..." Lothur smiled at her as he lied a little to comfort his woman. "But let\'s put that aside. They are just fearful people... They don\'t know anything about us."

"Hmmm." She nodded at him, glad that her man entirely agreed with her.

After that, they entered a part of that mansion, an entrance hall with two beautiful staircases that looked like reflections of each other.

There, they were asked to wait for a moment while a servant went to warn the hosts and the guard from before returned to his post.

A few seconds later, while Annaliese still had a sulky expression, two well-dressed women with magnificent hairstyles appeared to welcome them.

One of them had blond hair, and the other had black. They had very similar body measurements, about 1.6 meters tall, and average breasts, but very noticeable in their dresses, which were not sexy but did not hide them.

Other than that, all the other measurements of their bodies were well proportioned, while their facial appearances were different, but both were beautiful.

The two looked young, but from how they behaved and looked at them, Lothur could tell they had a lot of experience.

"So you are Lothur?" The blond woman gave one of her hands to him while looking disguisedly at Annaliese.

She did not need anyone to tell her who this brunette girl her. She knew the appearances of all the children of important people in this city.

"Yes, that\'s me..." Lothur kissed that blonde\'s hand, impressing those two women that he did not simply shake her hand as were expected.

"Amelie Christen, the person who invited you to this dinner." The blonde said as she retrieved her hand and waved to the person next to her. "This is my friend, Lina Engelmann."

"It\'s a pleasure to meet you, Lothur..." This black-haired woman also gave one of her hands to the silver-haired young man, soon noticing him kissing the top of it.

"The pleasure is all mine..." He smiled as he looked into that woman\'s eyes, seeing how she was looking intently.

Annaliese did not like that at all and then said. "My name is Annaliese Frost, and I am here to accompany my brother-in-law to this dinner."

"Oh?" That black-haired woman looked at Annaliese, already knowing who Lothur\'s companion was but still greeting her. "The Second Miss Frost is beautiful, as the rumors say."

"Hmm, welcome to my residence," Amelie commented with a smile, ignoring that young man\'s boldness in bringing someone else to a dinner he was invited to. \'I can already tell this fellow is bold.\'

\'It\'s a shame, but I think all the information we\'ve gathered about him is incorrect...\' She lamented in her mind as she directed Lothur and Annaliese into the dining hall of her residence.

"So, Lothur, you are a formation master? I heard it was you who put the formation on that glove..." The black-haired woman, the 2-star formation master who had analyzed Lothur\'s glove, said in curiosity.

She was there mainly to meet this young genius behind the formation she had been unable to see through. Hence, she had not waited for them to sit down to eat to ask him about it.

"Hmm, I made every part of my product myself. And yes, as of today, I am a 1-star formation master. I just passed the association exam..." He said until he was interrupted by Annaliese.

"My brother-in-law not only passed with the best result ever recorded at that institution. He was also invited to join the council after taking the first tests!" She said proudly, making these women see how amazing he was.

That was not a secret since many people had attended that occasion. Thus, Lothur just looked at Annaliese and smiled while those two women stopped to watch him in surprise.

"Is that true?" The formation master asked in surprise.

She knew how difficult it was to become part of the council since she had been trying to achieve this for decades!

Minos nodded in affirmation. "Yes, an old man with white hair and mustache offered it to me, but I refused. I don\'t want leadership responsibilities, as his proposal seemed to involve."

"What?" The two women exclaimed, shocked at Lothur\'s crazy words.

They did not know many cases of people disinterested in power. After all, cultivators like them depended on it to live longer and better. So who would not seek leadership?

Only a bunch of fools, as in the case of Leopoldine\'s most wanted man and now also Lothur, were crazy enough to talk such nonsense.

Annaliese then tried to correct Lothur\'s words while pinching his belly. "My brother-in-law meant that he doesn\'t want to get involved in public problems. But he values having good relations with the high echelon of cultivators in our society."

"But he refused such a thing?" Lina asked.

"That was just a negotiation strategy..." Annaliese lied. "My brother-in-law got a perfect score on the other two tests after refusing that offer. So they\'ll be back to talk to him!"

"Is that so?" Lothur looked at her along with those two women.

Amelie then realized that these two seemed much closer than normal brothers-in-law and asked. "By the way, what is the relationship between you two? It is not common for brother-in-law and sister-in-law to walk hand in hand..."

Hearing that, Annaliese removed her right hand from Lothur\'s and blushed. "That doesn\'t..."

Lothur then said. "Anna and I are partners, as you can see. So note that whatever you have in mind, it will have to involve her family to some degree."

"After all, I can\'t just abandon the family of two of my women..."
