For instance, the plundering of Bordeaux vintage wine was typical.
The beautiful lady increasingly felt that in Meister County, there seemed to be a hidden, manipulative force, controlling some people and some powers, intending to gradually erode the Crowley family.
Now, she was powerless to resist this dark force!
However... when she saw the goods were recovered this morning, she instantly felt that this young man, about the same age as her daughter, with his tall and robust figure, seemed like a solid shield, capable of protecting her and the future of the Crowley family.
From that moment, the beautiful lady made up her mind to find a way to bind herself to this promising young man.
At present, he was merely the Guardian Knight of the Crowley family, which was far from enough!
Unfortunately, it seemed that from the start, he was utterly uninterested in Jenny, a noble lady.
Especially since Jenny had invited her best friend Agatha to accompany him to the library, but he was equally disinterested in Agatha.
And after he was ennobled as a Baron, the plan to marry into the family became completely impractical!
This gave the beautiful lady quite a headache.
It wasn't until today, when she impulsively hugged him, that she realized the young man seemed quite interested in her instead.
This made her hesitant for a while, one reason being Rein's youth, and the other being her daughter Jenny...
So, when Rein went to visit Earl Harris, she explicitly mentioned to her daughter Jenny the importance of Rein to the Crowley family, as well as the actions she might take...
But what the beautiful lady did not expect was the strong support she received from her daughter Jenny.
In fact, Jenny had seen over the course of the year how her mother struggled to keep the Crowley family functioning.
As the saying goes, adversity breeds growth!
Over the year, Jenny grew rapidly.
She knew that if the Crowley family wanted to continue to stand strong in Meister County in the coming days, it had to find a powerful figure for support.
This person could be Baron Alonso, it could be other nobles, and now, there was Baron Rein.
If one could choose, anyone would know, the best candidate would certainly be the young, promising Lord Reine.
So, although Jenny felt a bit sour when she heard her mother's plan, she knew the gravity of the situation; her mother was prioritizing the bigger picture.
Of course, the main reason was that this promising Baron Rein was not interested in her but in her mother instead...
This involuntarily made the young lady look down at her own chest, suddenly feeling quite disheartened.
Watching the two ascend the stairs, Jenny slowly decreased her pace.
Rein followed the beautiful lady up to the second floor of the villa.
However... when he followed the beautiful lady into a room, Rein sensed something was amiss.
Because this was evidently a bedroom, with a luxurious large bed in the center, nightstands on both sides, a dressing table, and so on...
Entering the Baroness Crowley's bedroom late at night, obviously, was not quite appropriate.
Just as he turned around, he realized that Jenny, who had been following him, was nowhere to be seen.
At this moment, only he and the Baroness Crowley were in the room.
Just as he was contemplating how to broach the subject, he saw the beautiful lady bend over, her back to Rein, and lift her loosely knitted cashmere waistcoat, suddenly revealing her large, ripe-peach-like buttocks, in contrast to her slender waist.
Under the stark visual contrast, Rein was instantly left thirsty and tongue-tied.
The beautiful lady suddenly turned her head, her cheeks flushed, tussled her slightly messy hair by her ear, and said in a coquettish voice, "Lord Reine, could you help me with something?"
"The Armor Casting Technique you want is in this cabinet, but it seems to be at the very bottom...."
