"Okay, I got it." Derila nodded to him and hurried away.
William looked at her back for a long time before withdrawing his gaze.
Monica sent Derila out and came back, seeing the complicated look in William's
eyes, she couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, do you think, something will happen to
Mr.Lierger?"
"It's hard to say." William frowned, "Mr.Lierger is too conceited, always thinking that no
one can touch him, that's why he brought so few people to M nation this time. In fact,
the situation over there now is very unfavourable to him, Adams, the priest's gang, and
the new Giblo family, any one of them alone is a strong enemy. For him to barge
straight through to confront them alone, with a dozen of his men, is simply going too
deep into the tiger's den, it's too dangerous!"
"He's probably been too smooth all this time." Monica sighed, "If anything does happen
to him, what about Ms.Feroma? What about us at…?"
Although Monica didn't know about power schemes, she knew that right now, Daemon
was their protection, their talisman.
If something happened to Daemon, then both Derila and William would be
finished.
"Life is sometimes a gamble." William sighed, "When I first bet on Mr.Lierger, there
was a certain amount of risk, but I still believe in my vision, he will never collapse on
this…his luck is still behind him!"
"So can we do anything about it now?" Monica asked.
"Two things." William ordered, "First, continue to investigate the President's wife's
secrets; second, protect Derila and help her stabilize the Lierger family."
"Understood." Monica nodded, "I just asked Dominic about it today, he's still looking into
it, and he's already got some leads."
"Marianne's ex-husband shouldn't be too hard to find out, but the lover is a bit of a problem,
unless it's just an ordinary person." William speculated, "You go over to Derila's
tomorrow to protect her and let me know immediately if anything happens."
"That's fine with me." Monica said, "But now that that auntie Layla from Ms.Feroma's
house is here, I get the feeling she doesn't like us very much and has a wary feeling
about us."
"Quite normal." William smiled bitterly, "Ever since I've known Derila, I've kept
causing her trouble and using her three times, so it's natural for people around her to be
wary of me. You don't need to pay attention to that, when you see auntie Layla, you still
have to be respectful and treat her with courtesy, she knows we are there to help, so
naturally she won't give you a hard time."
"Yes, I know."
……
Everyone told Derila to get some rest, but she couldn't sleep at all.
Just closing her eyes made her think of Daemon, and the image of him in trouble made
her heart feel as bad as if it was being stabbed.
At this moment, she really wanted to fly to M nation to look for him.
Even if she had to run around looking for him, it would be better than staying at home
right now.
Although everyone said that she needed to stay and keep the house, she knew that she
was not good at doing that at all.
She would rather be like Charles, fighting the enemy to the death on the battlefield to
save Daemon, that's her character.
After a night of random thoughts, it was dawn in the blink of an eye.
Derila stayed awake all night and kept checking her phone, hoping to receive good
news, but unfortunately there was nothing.
She washed and changed and got up, and Layla was already dining in the dining room,
and chatting up with Norah.
The mood in the house had been tense and subdued, but Layla's humorous remarks
had made Norah and several of the maids laugh.
Derila also raised the corners of her lips, and at this time, she felt much more at
ease with Layla's presence.
She had just come downstairs and was preparing to eat when her attendant hurriedly
came to report, "Ms.Feroma, Mr. Donald is here!"
"Invite him in." As Derila spoke, Monica came in through the side door, still carrying
the snacks she had just made, "Ms.Feroma, His Highness asked me to come over and
help."
