Chapter 48 Meeting
Aaron blurted out subconsciously: "Are you going to meet your parents?"
"Meet the parents?" Alice was startled, then reacted and glared at Aaron fiercely.
Under the cover of her fluffy evening dress, she "accidentally" stepped on Aaron's foot and looked around as if nothing had happened.
Aaron wisely screamed to avoid being hurt again, but the faint twitching corners of his mouth had revealed everything.
Seeing his silent expression, Alice showed a sly smile, and then reluctantly answered his question: "If you are referring to my relatives, then so be it."
Everyone knows that she is Alice of the Iris family, and some people know that her father is the Grand Duke of Iris, but no one knows who her mother is.
In other words, her mother really didn't deserve to be named.
As a mere maid, and because she died in childbirth giving birth to Alice, her sense of existence was extremely weak.
Naturally, in the Iris family, there is no such thing as preference. The Grand Duke Iris' attention to Alice is quite limited.
There are only a handful of private conversations between father and daughter.
Growing up with her was her swordsmanship instructor Ed and her uncle Dagos.
Considering that her father would not be willing to meet Aaron, it means that the person Aaron is going to meet this time is actually Dagus, who is half of Alice's father.
"To be honest, it was a bit sudden." Aaron scratched his head and smiled bitterly. He was really not prepared for anything.
Alice reluctantly led him around the edge of the dance floor, and then whispered: "If it weren't for the sudden request of the Lord of Bals tonight, I... I wouldn't want to."
Among the soft music and slightly noisy voices, her deliberately lowered voice was lost in it, making it inaudible.
Although she was mentally prepared to marry Aaron, she always hesitated subconsciously whenever she thought of Aaron's unattractive look.
Well, although he seems to be okay in some aspects, he doesn't look like a noble at all...
With the idea that it could be postponed for a day, Alice thought she could postpone this matter for a while.
But she didn't expect that the Lord of Bals would actually invite her to the dinner at this time!
Aaron did not receive the invitation letter, but she could see clearly that the words "Mrs. Albert" were clearly written on the invitation letter, which meant that she could not escape.
As the president of the Iris Branch, Dagus naturally had a reason to attend this banquet. Alice simply broke the pot and pulled Aaron directly to solve these two troublesome things at once.
"Who are those people?"
Aaron glanced at the edge of the ballroom and saw a few guys hiding in the shadows.
The reason that attracted his attention was that these people's physiques were a bit too strong, and even reminded him of the Lord of Bals. Their arms were slightly long and thick, which looked particularly awkward when matched with their height.
Upon closer inspection, Aaron could even vaguely see their exposed, luxuriant hair.
These people looked like uncivilized beasts. Although they wore standard armor, they still exuded a strong sense of wildness.
"Those are orcs," Alice followed Aaron's gaze and whispered, "It's best not to stare at them, it's very rude."
Hmm, orcs?
Does it mean Catwoman or Bunny Ears Girl?
Aaron's thoughts drifted away in the next second.
"There are many orc tribes living in Badibilari. Most of the orcs are not very friendly to us. Only a small number of orcs are willing to cooperate with us."
Alice paused and added, "They are wearing standard armor. If I guessed correctly, these should be the attendants of the Lord of Bals. I heard from Uncle Dagges that he went to Bals a long time ago. I went to Badibila and lived there for a while. It was probably at that time that I established friendship with these orcs, right?"
As she said this, Alice still pulled Aaron.
She had been putting off Aaron's dress for some time, and perhaps Uncle Diggs had arrived.
Aaron allowed Alice to drag him, but he turned back from time to time, staring at the orcs thoughtfully.
This Lord of Bals City seems to be more difficult to deal with than he thought.
To his expectation, Alice actually led him to the second floor, and saw Bales again somewhere on a seat leaning against the railing.
"He's Uncle Dagges," Alice saw Bars's unique iron arm and whispered to Aaron from a distance before leading Aaron over.
Aaron saw Dagos's iconic smiling face and the kind smile in his eyes.
Before Aaron could think of what to say, he saw that Dagus had already stood up with a smile and took the initiative to greet him, "Little Ellie, I have been waiting for a long time to take a look at him."
As he spoke, he gave Aaron a bear hug without any gentlemanly manner, and took the opportunity to whisper in Aaron's ear: "Be careful tonight."
Alice glanced left and right and found that there was no one else around. Then she breathed a sigh of relief and said coquettishly, "Uncle!"
"Hahaha, we are all from my family. It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Aaron. Little Aili will have to rely on you in the future." After saying that, Dagus held Aaron's hand, squeezed it slightly, and quickly He gestured to Bals with his eyes, then turned to Bals and said, "Lord Bals, I don't think I need to introduce you to this person, right?"
"Of course, we have known each other for a long time." Bars looked at Aaron and said with a smile.
It seemed that it was also because of today's dinner that he was also wearing a specially made evening dress.
The fabric was obviously extremely elastic and perfectly outlined his explosive muscle lines.
Aaron couldn't help but take a look at his clothes, and was a little curious about the fabric. He always felt that Bars would burst out of his clothes if he moved a little too much.
Dagus squinted his eyes, looked Aaron over inadvertently, chuckled a few times, and pressed a few places on Aaron's clothes casually.
Only a few slight crisp sounds were heard, the metal bracket was bounced away, and the torture instrument finally turned back into clothes. Aaron suddenly felt that the air was much fresher.
"Nonsense." Dagus said to Alice and apologized to Aaron on Alice's behalf: "Sorry, Mr. Aaron."
"Uncle!" Alice glanced at Bars.
If Bals hadn't been there, she would have dared to press the metal bracket back on the spot.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Daggs."
"Actually, Lord Yalen, I know you." Dagos chuckled a few times, "I wonder if you still remember, when you pawned the manor, you joined our Iris Chamber of Commerce."
