Chapter 769: Tea for his future father-in-law

Book:Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes' Darling Wife Published:2024-6-2

After a weekend rendezvous with Eduardo Tercero, Claudio Belles returned to Z.
But no sooner had he arrived in the capital of Z than he was intercepted by two acquaintances.
“Old K, what are you doing here?”
The visitors were none other than Old K and Mario, both had come to Z with a low profile and had come specifically to look for her, so they must have something important to do.
Mario did not look good, he looked at Claudio Belles and said stiffly, “The news of your affair with President Eduardo has reached the ears of the Old Master of the Court, and your identity is already known to him.”
Old K was still polite and said in a light voice: “Miss Claudio, I think … you had better come back to H-Town with us.”
Claudius Belles raised an eyebrow, Z. This was Chalet on Lookout Mountain, after all, it was his territory and he wasn’t afraid.
“What if I don’t go with you?”
Mario pulled his pistol from his waistband and said viciously, “Then don’t blame us for not being polite!”
Old K glared at Mario, raised his hand to stop Mario’s action, and scolded him with a scowl, “Mario, what are you doing?
Claudio Belles leaned back lazily with his arms up, giving Mario a contemptuous look, “If you want to fight, I don’t care, I’ll do it. It’s just that this is my place, are you sure you can win against me?”.
Chalet Lookout on the mountain is full of traps, the touch of which can kill a man.
When Chalet on the Mountain Lookout was first designed, it took two years to complete.
Later, all the mechanisms and hidden weapons in this chalet were regularly checked and replaced with the latest weapons every year, and while it was admittedly a bit shaky against two, there were enough here to send old K and Mario home defeated.
“Claudio Belles, I’m warning you, don’t get too cocky! I’m not going to leave you alone now, I’m talking to you for President Eduardo’s sake!”
Claudio Belles brushed his lips in disbelief.
Old K said, “All right, all right, Mario, are you coming to do something, or are you coming to stir things up?”
Mario gritted his teeth, grabbed his gun and said, “Forget it, you guys talk, I’ll wait outside!”.
When Mario had gone, K said, “Miss Claudio, don’t be angry with Mario, he’s like that.”
Claudio Belles raised his eyebrows, “I’m not interested in getting angry with him.”
“That’s fine. But Miss Claudio, could you come with us to H-Town, I’m afraid the old Court Master will blame Mario and me if he doesn’t see you there.”
Claudio Belles looked at Old K with a slight smile, “Have you thought that if I meet your Old Court Master, with his power, he will be able to trap me in H-Town and then use my life to coerce me to leave Eduardo Tercero, and if Eduardo Tercero comes back from the border and finds out about this matter, then how will you be able to explain to your President Eduardo when the time comes?”
“This …”
For a moment, Old K was caught in a dilemma.
Honestly speaking, before coming to Z, he thought that Claudius Belles was not good enough to invite him, and he only did what the Old Court Master ordered, but he did not think about the dilemma involved.
“But right now, the Old Court Master has asked Mario and me to come and see you, and if you don’t come back with us, we really can’t do our job.”
Claudio Belles didn’t really want to make things difficult for Old K. Besides, sooner or later, Eduardo Tercero’s father would have to be seen.
He had never been a coward, nor did he hide when problems arose, nor was he a troublemaker waiting for his other half to take care of everything.
What’s more, in this relationship she likes to be fair and even-handed, and what Eduardo Tercero can do for her, she can do for him.
There was the future father-in-law to meet, the total loss, and there was nothing she didn’t like about making an early visit to give the old Master of the Court an early reality check.
“Come on.”
Claudius Belles turned and headed up the hill.
Old K shook his head: such an easy yes?
He had thought that Claudius Belles would be difficult to deal with, that he would not be able to explain himself.
But he had not expected Claudius Belles to agree so easily.
Old K followed him cheerfully and asked, “Doesn’t Miss Claudius need to repack her clothes before she leaves? I’m afraid I won’t be back in H-Town for another day or two.”
“The Royal Villa has my clothes, I’ll go to H-Town and just stay at The Royal Villa.”
“Also.”
It looks like Claudio Belles has made La Villa Real his home in H-Town….
I have to say that President Eduardo is quick to get girls, and he has knocked down a tough nut to crack in Miss Claudio so quickly.
President Eduardo is always President Eduardo.

Arrival in H-Town a dozen hours later.
Claudio Belles did not rest and was taken directly to The Tercero Family to meet the old Master of the Court by Old K.
The Tercero family has been the head of the R family for generations, and although The Tercero family is a secret residence, there are many secret guards and heavy soldiers guarding the entrance.
The whole house is austere and demure.
But Claudio Belles is no ordinary woman and does not feel uncomfortable in this environment.
“Miss Claudio, this way, please. The old Court Master is waiting for you in the back garden.”
Claudius Belles nodded and his steps led to the long corridor, from which he saw a middle-aged male figure in the courtyard.
Old K did not follow him any further and merely said, “That’s the old Court Master, Miss Claudius, have a nice chat with the old Court Master, I’ll go down first.”
“Right.”
Claudio Belles was walking behind David Tercero when he suddenly turned and swung at her.
Claudius Belles dodged it with a quick movement, “Master David, if you don’t like me, you don’t have to hit me when you meet me, do you?”.
He had a lot of practice, otherwise David Tercero would have broken his arm with that punch.
David Tercero looked at the girl in front of him and sketched a smile, but it wasn’t a friendly smile, nor was it a grim one.
“It really takes a woman with a trick or two to attract this Eduardo Tercero guy.”
Claudio Belles was slightly stunned, he hadn’t expected David Tercero to say that, and seeing that he meant no harm, all of Claudio Belles’ nerves relaxed a little.
But it was true that David Tercero did not like him, and Claudio Belles was not entirely relieved.
“The old Court Master has invited me from Z to H-Town, is there something important to tell me?”.
David Tercero growled slightly, “I don’t mind going off the deep end with you, you know in your own heart who you are, Edward Tercero also has an important mission that Edward Tercero cannot fulfill, he and you, different paths, you are not on the same path, together, you will cause a bloodbath. ”
“But Eduardo Tercero and I are not the ones who will cause a bloodbath, why should we care about the bloodbaths of others?”
David Tercero was stunned for a moment, clearly he hadn’t expected this girl to block his words in this way.
It was clear that she spoke with sophistry, but she said it with conviction and without the slightest hint of weakness.
David Tercero pursed his lips, his voice cold and authoritative: “If you really love Eduardo Tercero, leave him, it’s the best thing for you and for him.”
“And if I say no?” Claudio Belles showed no weakness.
A cold look shone under David Tercero’s eyes, “If you don’t say yes, I’ll have to use strong-arm tactics, but I don’t want to, because at the end of the day Eduardo Tercero is my son, and the woman he likes, even if I don’t like her, I’ll still care about her face.”
Claudius Belles laughed instead of getting angry at these words, “Old Master of the Court, you said you were worried about Eduardo Tercero’s face, that’s why you went behind Eduardo Tercero’s back and brought me to dissect the stakes so that I could weigh them when Eduardo Tercero was at the border. ”
“What, you think this humiliates you?”
Claudius Belles shook his head slightly and said, somewhat unnecessarily, “That’s not true, I’m not that petty, it’s just that have you thought about what Eduardo Tercero will think when he comes back from the border and doesn’t find me?”
