Female Novel
Chapter 1190
"Hmph. I don't care if you're the young master of the Woods family. This decision i s totally unfair to my
father. It's just so heart-wrenching!"
The girl harrumphed coldly and folded her arms across her chest. She pursed her lips, huffing but she
looked cute at a glance.
"That’s right. How could we do that?"
Many people felt displeased for Lancelot’s sake.
After all, their master would be able to obtain a little more martial resources, and h e would finally get to
enjoy his days comfortably. Yet something like this had to happen. Naturally, the branch family
members were furious.
"What are you talking about, Sally?
Apologize to Young Master Fane now! Have you forgotten all of my teachings?"
Lancelot furrowed his brows and put on a stern aura, snapping at the girl before him.
"Dad!"
Sally felt frustrated and proceeded to stamp her foot. "I didn't say anything wrong. Why should I
apologize to him?" she retorted. "Besides, I wasn't pinning everything on him. I was expressing mynovelbin
displeasure at the decision Master Woods made. You can't just restrict my freedom of speech!”
Another youth also spoke up, "That's right. He'd be no different than the Third Elder if he doesn't allow
us to speak freely!"
A middle-aged man to the side jumped in shock. "Luke, you apologize to Young Master Fane too!" he
barked at his son. " The Woods family's decision already benefits the branch families. We should be
grateful, got it? Besides, surely Master has something else in mind with this decision!"
Although the middle-aged man felt disgruntled regarding the decision about Lancelot, he was well
aware of the difference in status between the main family and the branch families. They could not
afford to offend the main family. If they did, the branch families would suffer serious consequences.
"I-I'm sorry!"
Although the young man was still displeased, he gritted his teeth and ducked his head.
No one expected that Fane would step forward at this moment. "All of you were right. A house head
like Lancelot indeed has contributed great things for the Woods family," he said to the crowd, smiling
faintly. "How could a talent like him be unimportant to us? We would be suffering great losses if not for
him."
Sally further pouted when she heard this." I'm glad that you realize that. Then you can't make us elect a
new house head!"
Rather than being angry at the girl’s temper, Fane seemed delighted instead. "I can't do that,” he
replied. "Our decision is final. Even your father agreed!"
"Dad, what's wrong with you? How could you agree to that?"
Sally was speechless for a moment. She could not comprehend what he was thinking. He had said that
he would work hard for the branch family himself. He practically treated the other members like his own
immediate family. How could he just give up his position?
"Why would I disagree?"
"Ah. You-you're going to become an elder: n the main family?"
Never mind an elder-the master of the branch families had to treat helmsmen or Patronums with the
utmost respect when they came to visit.
Lancelot nodded his head as he spoke.
"That's great. This arrangement is absolutely fantastic. It’s so much better than before!"
