Count of Wizards

And the middle-aged woman standing not far from Jack Ferguson, with long brown hair naturally draped behind her, is very tall, although she is already old, the corners of her eyes are covered with wrinkles, and the skin on her face is also She relaxed, but it was obvious that this middle-aged woman was also a very beautiful woman when she was young. This person is Jack Ferguson's wife and Connor's third aunt, Eugenia da Silva!

"How is Alfredo?" Although it was late at night, Eugenia, who still kept her makeup on, asked very seriously to her husband, Jack Ferguson, who was sitting on the chair in front of him with a dignified expression:

"Very pessimistic!" Hearing his wife's question, Jack Ferguson hesitated for a while, but still chose to say truthfully;

"In that case, what are you going to do?" Eugenia didn't seem surprised by her husband's answer. There was a gleam in her eyes, and she continued to ask her husband who was in a bad mood:

"What should I do? Tomorrow at nine o'clock in the morning, Volent will return from the Ferguson family estate in the suburbs. He, Martinez, and I will have an internal meeting to discuss the current situation, but yesterday Martinez The old butler, Si, has quietly sent his confidants to take the train to Loen to find Connor, and let him come back!" Jack rubbed his temples very tiredly, and said helplessly:

"Hmph! Martinez, the damn old guy, sent someone to find Connor, but he didn't even say hello to you, the master of the Ferguson family. He really looked down on you, Jack Ferguson!" Eugene replied to his husband this time. Nia was obviously not very satisfied, she snorted directly, and said very dissatisfied, and when she said Connor's name again, Eugenia's eyes clearly showed a hint of coldness, obviously her impression of Connor Ferguson not good.

Feeling the dissatisfaction in the words of the wife who had been with him for more than 30 years and gave birth to a son and a daughter for him, Jack Ferguson suddenly felt very irritable in his heart. He continued to rub his temples and said:

"It's normal, you don't know, butler Martinez, from my father's generation was the big steward of our Ferguson family, to my brother Alfredo, he is still the big steward of our family, almost all his life Serving for our Ferguson family, plus Alfredo doesn't care much about things, the big and small things in the family are almost all handled by the steward Martinez. His prestige in our family is second only to Alfredo's. Outside, almost no one is invincible!"

"If it wasn't for Martinez's nephew, Romero, who has a very good relationship with me. When drinking at noon today, he quietly told me that Martinez had sent someone to find Connor back. I still don't know about it. Woolen cloth!"

"Didn't Connor do well in Loen? Would he still be able to see the things in the family? Besides, he was the one who left the family back then, and he said at the time that he would never come back, and now he still has the face to come back and inherit it." family?"

"And you guys from the Ferguson family are really scumbags! Connor Ferguson doesn't care about you anymore, you guys still have to go forward and ask others to inherit the family," Eugenie heard what her husband said. The coldness in Ya's eyes became stronger and stronger, and she said mockingly:

Hearing the meaning of his wife's words, Jack Ferguson put down the hand rubbing his temple, opened his eyes, and looked deeply at Eugenia in front of him. After a few seconds, he said in a deep voice:

"Desilio Ranieri of East Hoy Company increased our ore sales quota for us. It was Connor who did it, as well as the 10,000 gold pounds that the butler Martinez went to Loen to get back last time. It was also taken by Connor. Without these two incomes, the two manors our family mortgaged to the Imperial Bank in the northern suburbs would have been taken away by the Imperial Bank! These two things have already explained that the child Connor Although he hasn't come back for ten years, he still has a family in his heart!"

"Do you really believe in Steward Martinez? You just believe what this old guy says?" Regarding her husband's defense of Connor Ferguson, Eugenia immediately twitched her lips and retorted:

Hearing Eugenia's words, Jack Ferguson sighed deeply, stood up from the chair, walked in front of Eugenia, held Eugenia's hands, shook his head very Whispered sincerely: "I know what you want me to do, honestly if I were twenty years younger"

"No! Ten years old! I would really do that, but I understand now that it is impossible to do that. Connor is Alfredo's only son. Whether it is from the "Empire Succession Law" or the family Internally, he is the undisputed first heir of the family, and he has the support of the steward Martinez, so it is difficult for Volente and I to pose any threat to him!"

Looking at the depressed husband in front of her, Eugenia didn't hide her disappointment. After a few seconds, she and her husband looked at each other, then leaned into Jack Ferguson's ear and whispered: "I know Connor is the first heir of your Ferguson family, but if he dies, will the Imperial Succession Law and your Ferguson family allow a dead person to inherit your family?"

It seemed that he did not expect that such words would come from his wife’s mouth. A look of shock appeared on Jack Ferguson’s face. It took him a few seconds to recover from the shock. He subconsciously lowered his voice and looked at Eugene very seriously. Nia said, "Eugenia, what do you want to do?"

"What can I do as a woman? I just want my husband to inherit the Ferguson family and become the Earl of Ferguson, instead of living with a knight title for the rest of his life, Jack Ferguson, have you forgotten? , after your father died, did you feel resentment towards Alfredo's inheritance family?"

"Also, Jack Ferguson, you don't know that, your poor knight title is not hereditary!"

"After you die, your title will be gone, and your son will not inherit anything. He will become a lowly commoner from aristocrat! You have been useless all your life, so you can't let your son continue to be useless, right? You are not a father for Henry. Plan, as a mother, don't I plan for the rest of his life?" Eugenia withdrew the hands tightly held by her husband, and said coldly:
