"You knew this would happen?"
Then … "
"The reason why I donated Mecathy and Borjane's bookstore to the orphanage was to lure the Church of Danton into the trap!"
Anne Aldrich Augen rushed into the guest room and delivered the news about the Church of Danton to Kieran. When she saw Kieran's smile, she suddenly reacted to the situation.
Kieran didn't say anything, it was considered as a silent acknowledgment.
Anne Aldrich Augen wasn't an idiot, even if she continued to deny, Kieran wouldn't believe her.
Of course, Kieran wouldn't admit it out loud either.
It would be too troublesome to leave a topic of gossip for a woman like Anne Aldrich Augen to talk about.
"You are really a bad person!
How dare you use the fact that the Church of Danton is in urgent need of a Knight to design the Church of Danton! Did you get the information from the secret room in Mecathy and Borjane's bookstore?
But, why did you do it?
Don't tell me it's just for the title of Knight! "
As Kieran's collaborator, Anne Aldrich Augen quickly realized most of the truth after she noticed the clues.
However, there were still some things that confused her.
Kieran, of course, wouldn't explain.
"I'm just searching for my memories … I realized my powers are very similar to the Knight."
He answered in this way.
After hearing the answer, Anne Aldrich Augen couldn't hold back her laughter.
The woman before her eyes would never believe what Kieran said.
Of course, as a smart woman, she wouldn't press further.
Standing up from the sofa in front of Kieran, Anne Aldrich Augen in her pajamas stretched her body without even trying to conceal it.
Instantly, a large area of her skin was displayed before Kieran's eyes.
Anne Aldrich Augen then walked over and leaned on the sofa where Kieran was sitting. She lowered her head and blew into Kieran's ear.
"What do you think I should wear to give a speech?"
"Gray? Black? "
"They're too old-fashioned, and pink and red are too gaudy. They're not suitable for that kind of occasion!"
Anne Aldrich Augen seemed to be asking the person closest to her.
However, Kieran, who felt the itch in his ear, frowned.
Without a doubt, Kieran wasn't used to this kind of action.
"I don't know!"
"I don't know much about matching outfits, and since you've already consulted your fashion designer, I think you should listen to the professional's advice."
Kieran said straightforwardly.
As the current owner of Augen Manor, Anne Aldrich Augen was a woman who knew how to enjoy life. Let alone a chef and a gardener, every single piece of clothing she wore was specially designed.
Although Kieran was in the guest room with his S + Intuition, Kieran heard Anne Aldrich Augen's call in the study room clearly as she instructed the designer to choose the clothes.
"What amazing hearing!"
"T-If that is the case …"
"I... I like your soft mutterings, you heard it too?"
Anne Aldrich Augen exclaimed before her face flushed. She raised her arm shyly, wanting to hug Kieran's neck.
But when Anne Aldrich Augen raised her arm, Kieran stood up from the sofa and brushed past her arm without leaving a trace.
"There are less than two hours left before your speech!"
Considering that you need to put on makeup, do your hair, and the traffic jam, if you don't want to ruin your mayoral campaign by being late, you better get ready right away! "
Kieran then opened the guest room door and gestured for Anne Aldrich Augen to enter.
"What a heartless man."
Anne Aldrich Augen glanced over Kieran with a grudge.
Though, she didn't linger on the topic anymore.
It was just like what Kieran had said.
If Anne Aldrich Augen didn't want to ruin everything by being late, she had to go prepare everything now.
Anne Aldrich Augen strode out and Kieran closed the door.
Kieran didn't associate anything with Anne Aldrich Augen's actions and words.
He knew why Anne Aldrich Augen did that.
It was still a habit mixed with the intention of investing.
When a woman as beautiful as a flower frowned and smiled at you, don't ever think she would be fond of you, it was just a habit of hers.
A habit of investing in a man who could bring benefits to her.
Beauty itself was a kind of capital.
Especially for a woman like Anne Aldrich Augen, she didn't just treat her beauty as her capital, she even turned it into her own weapon.
Kieran was confident that if he showed even the slightest hint of other thoughts, he would definitely fall into the enemy's trap.
Let alone eating the lamb, he would attract a lot of trouble instead.
The title of Black Widow wasn't just for show.
Sitting back on the sofa, Kieran quickly tossed Anne Aldrich Augen's matter to the back of his mind, even though it would be her first speech during the mayoral election and he would have to protect her throughout the process.
Everything had its priorities.
Compared to Kieran's matters, Anne Aldrich Augen's matters were obviously secondary.
"The Church of Danton has interfered!
What would you or any of you do in front of one of the Holy Relic Society, the Church of Danton?
Take the risk out of desperation?
Or give up just like that? "
Kieran curled his lips into a grin as he thought.
The answer had already been decided a long time ago.
The reason why greed was known as one of the cardinal sins wasn't without reason.
This was especially true when there were some usable excuses.
…
11: 30 in the afternoon.
At the central square of Edland City, Anne Aldrich Augen in a white lady suit walked up to the temporary podium.
The white suit set off Anne Aldrich Augen's beauty even more.
The style of the suit made Anne Aldrich Augen look more capable and experienced.
So, when Anne Aldrich Augen's appearance was synchronized on the big screen in the square, it instantly attracted cheers from the crowd.
Some of them were arranged beforehand and some of them were attracted by Anne Aldrich Augen's beauty.
"If it's possible, I don't want to stand here, I want to stand below the podium and look at my husband. He is a reliable man, whether it's from a man, a husband or a mayor's point of view but …"
Anne Aldrich Augen's eyes turned red as she spoke.
It made Kieran who was standing in the shadows beside nod repeatedly in praise.
Compared to the meticulously matched attire and makeup, the speech was obviously more brilliant.
Of course, the most brilliant part was Anne Aldrich Augen's acting.
Kieran knew very well what was the real situation between Anne Aldrich Augen and Symede Augen.
However, the people below the podium didn't know.
All they knew was Symede Augen, who was supposed to participate in the mayoral election, died in an explosion.
Anne Aldrich Augen, in order to fulfill her husband's dying wish, participated in the mayoral election.
The public sympathized with the weak.
Gaining sympathy was a brilliant way of doing things.
Especially when a beautiful lady did it, the effect would be more obvious.
Kieran saw the crowd's gaze and expression and knew Anne Aldrich Augen had succeeded.
As for him?
He too!
