Chapter 954: Chapter 964: The Butte Clan (Part 1)
Avrilâs face looked extremely displeased, but at this moment, instead of rushing back to Wells, she looked at the group of people behind him!
"Hao Si, Jiel?" Seeing these two, she certainly felt somewhat uncomfortable inside.
These two were not tall, and even in the eyes of the British, they were short and rather ugly, as well as old.
But itâs important to know that, just like William, they were all at the Peak Soldier King level, all with the title of Marquis, and in fact had deeper seniority than William.
After all, these two had been serving their family for over thirty or forty years.
Now, Wells, her half-brother, brought them both here, as well as a group of people who looked familiar but whose names she didnât know.
The strength of this group was at least at the level of top special forces soldiers.
Clearly, they came with great momentum!
Intimidation? But what did she have that could be intimidated?
"What exactly are you here for?" Avril asked calmly without panic.
Next to her, William appeared calm, but his body leaned slightly forward, not sitting down either.
From this movement, it was a protective stance towards Avril.
"These two siblings are interesting!" Lin Xi watched this scene, thinking to himself.
Dili Bare and Xie Ziqi also sensed the unusual atmosphere and silently watched the scene.
Wells didnât immediately respond to Avrilâs question; instead, he poured himself a glass of red wine, slowly savoring it by his mouth.
After a dozen seconds, he clicked his tongue and praised, "Sister, this wine is good!"
He took another piece of food, showing a look of enjoyment on his face, "This dish is good too!"
"You really know how to enjoy!"
"Coming to a place like this without inviting your dear brother!"
His gaze skipped directly over Lin Xi and looked at Dili Bare beside Lin Xi, a hint of amazement flashing in his eyes, "May I ask this ladyâs name?"
"Dili Bare!" Dili Bare responded.
Although she also sensed the discord between the siblings, ignoring him seemed like directly insulting him.
After all, this was Avrilâs brother!
"A very beautiful name, later on, I have a few great places to show you!"
"I guarantee youâll have a great time!"
Dili Bare, "...."
Whatâs this nonsense?
Did she agree to it?
Besides, am I even close to you?
And more importantly, not to mention whether weâre close or not, only inviting her, whatâs that about?
You have to know that beside her are her best friend Xie Ziqi and Lin Xi.
Your invitation etiquette seems lacking, donât you think?
As she was about to refuse, Avril, with a very displeased face, spoke first, "Iâm sorry, Iâll decline on behalf of Miss Dili Bare."
"I know exactly what kind of person you are, so donât even think about playing games with my friend!"
"Moreover, sheâs not someone you can mess with!"
Saying this, she couldnât help but glance at Lin Xi beside Dili Bare.
This person really isnât someone their Butte Clan can afford to offend!
The Butte Clan is highly reputed throughout the United Kingdom, or you could say, itâs one of the topmost aristocratic families.
Even though she learned a few days ago that the family also had Innate members.
Still, she felt that their Butte Clan couldnât afford to provoke Lin Xi.
You have to know this guy had even killed an Innate.
And heâs so young!
Thatâs incredibly terrifying, right?
Therefore, she felt Lin Xi could only be drawn in, not offended.
If they had to provoke him, it would be only when thereâs absolute certainty of finishing him off.
Finishing him off?
She thought about it and really couldnât think of anyone in the family with that capability!
Besides, they had no clue about Lin Xiâs strength or trump cards.
Because, whether in the Secret Realm or from what they had learned, she analyzed that Lin Xi had never shown his full strength.
Who exactly is this person?
Heâs definitely not as simple as he appears!
After hearing Avrilâs words, a hint of disdain flashed across Wellsâs face, "Both domestic and international stars, Iâve played with no less than..."
He paused, extending five fingers, "no less than fifty!"
Apparently, he recognized Dili Bare.
Dili Bareâs face didnât look too good either, but she said nothing.
Lin Xi, who had been ignored, showed a flash of killing intent in his eyes, which Avril noticed.
So, she immediately continued, "Get to the point if you have any business, otherwise, leave! Youâre not welcome here!"
Because she was concerned that if Wells talked nonsense and offended Lin Xi, not even the family could save him.
Although Wells was extremely detestable and heartless, to the family, he was a very promising successor who could lead the Butte Clan to greater prosperity.
"He must not die!" she thought to herself.
"Not welcome?" Wells didnât dwell too much on Dili Bare.
To him, celebrities were just temporary toys, and with enough money, anything was possible.
"Correct, not welcome!" Avril affirmed.
Wells smiled, "Do you know that this restaurant could be called mine?"
"Yours?" Avril was taken aback; she frequented this place.
But sheâd never thought it was Wellsâs.
So, it meant she was always being watched by Wells.
No wonder he could find her here; it explained things well.
She didnât doubt for a second whether Wells was lying; this person was incredibly arrogant, too disdainful to even bother with lying.
Wells poured himself another glass of red wine, "As for why Iâm here, can you not guess?"
"Family heir?" Avril questioned without hesitation.
Wells didnât respond, but his expression confirmed that Avril was right.
Avrilâs face turned cold, slightly angry, "How many times do I have to tell you, I have no interest in the heir position!"
"Besides, in many aspects, Iâm inferior to you; family members can see that!"
"Why donât you believe it?"
"You keep hounding me over this, arenât you just wasting your time?"
"If you really donât believe it, Iâll go back tonight, prepare a meeting, and publicly announce to everyone that I wonât fight for the heir position."
Hearing this, Wellsâs expression changed, and the wine near his lips was set aside. Acting as if he hadnât heard Avril, he said, "With so many peers in the family, do you know why I uniquely focus on you?"
"Why?" Avril was indeed confused.
She had stated more than three times that she wasnât interested in the heir position.
She even directly declined many critical industries and important meetings.
Yet Wells never let her go, targeting her at every turn, seeing her as the biggest obstacle to his path as heir.
"Because you win hearts, because youâre smart, because youâre less aggressive than I am, and this time, bringing back so many Spirit Stones and spiritual medicine further solidified your status in the eyes of some family members!"
"Theyâd think youâre more suitable for the heir position!"
"And I would just become a mere sharp blade in their hands!"
