Chapter 1040: One Year V

The butler had been working so diligently and was infinitely loyal to the marquis all these years, but now, the marquis wanted to take the butler's life just because of the crocodile tears shed by a gorgeous lady.

'Haha! The marquis manor's number is up.'

Seeing how the marquis treated the butler, the guard was no longer begging for mercy. He merely got up and walked out the door on his own after kowtowing to Zheng Tianwu like a martyr rushing to the place of execution in boundless grief and pain.

"Yuan'er is my dearest concubine. If anyone dares to treat her rudely in the future, this is the price you pay!" Zheng Tianwu helped Yuan'er to get up, his piercing eyes swept past everyone on the spot, his tone was cold and domineering.

Yuan'er's stunning face was covered in tears. She looked extremely pathetic just like a tiny little flower that was not capable of standing against the wind and rain so it must be protected.
