Fortunately, Jesse's identity had not been exposed yet. He changed the channel and watched the news about the chaos in Paris for about ten minutes. He listened to Sunday's report that Otel Yousseau and his gang were ready to rob the Bank of France.
Their escape route had also been found out by Sunday. Just as he was happily thinking about how to deal with Otel Yousseau and his gang, he heard Abigail calling him for breakfast.
Walking into the dining room, to his surprise, Jesse was actually chatting and laughing while helping Abigail carry the plates. This made William recall that Jesse knew Abigail's situation so well, and Abigail also came to Paris to meet Jesse without saying a word.
He suddenly felt like he had been played by the two girls. He asked uncertainly, "Did the two of you contact each other these few days?"
After asking this question, William sorted out his thoughts and felt that it was definitely Abigail who had taken the initiative to contact Jesse.
Jesse, on the other hand, knew William earlier, had more exquisite facial features, and was better than him in everything. He definitely did not have the confidence to be easily roped in by Abigail.
Looking at Jesse who could not help but look at Abigail, William rolled his eyes and glared at Abigail. However, he did not intend to mention this matter again.
"Let's eat. We'll stay at Chantilly Castle in a while."
"Okay," Abigail nodded with a smile. Jesse, who was seen through by William, smiled awkwardly and lowered his head to eat.
Unfortunately, he could not go to the castle. After breakfast, he was about to leave when Sunday reported, "Sir, Viscount Charles Cavendish is waiting outside the villa to visit you."
"Who? Cavendish? " William was stunned for a moment. After thinking for a while, he remembered who Charles was, "Damn it, why would that idiot come to my place?"
"Then are you going to see him?"
"Open the door," William shook his head. No matter how much he disliked his relatives, as long as he did not fall out with them, he could not be rude.
When he walked to the main door, he saw Charles Cavendish getting off the car with a man and a woman, two middle-aged people.
"Hi, William, long time no see." Charles was just about to hug William when he saw William's stern gaze. He couldn't help but recall what happened a few months ago.
Back at the Devonshire manor in London, William was just upset that he drank a bottle of Macallan whiskey. He shot him in the nose while he was lying on the sofa.
However, if William knew about this, he would never admit that it was because of a bottle of wine. Instead, he would say that it was because Charles didn't tell the truth.
"Good morning, Charles." He took the initiative to shake hands with the embarrassed Charles. Then, he looked at the man and woman who were both excited and at a loss. He asked Charles, "Aren't you going to introduce them to me?"
"Oh, sorry," Charles Cavendish came back to his senses and hurriedly introduced, "These two are Nick Spitz and Audrey Spitz. They are friends I met on the plane to Paris. When they heard that I was coming to visit you, they came together to meet you, the world-famous Grand Duke."
'F * ck!' William silently cursed in his heart. Charles, this bastard, was still so unreliable. He brought people he just met on the plane to someone else's house as a guest?
However, William did not reject the Spitz couple because they were too easy to recognize. One was Jennifer Aniston, and the other was Adam Sandler.
Therefore, although William scolded Charles for being unreliable, he still welcomed the Spitz couple. "Welcome, Mr. Spitz, Mrs. Spitz."
"H-Hello, Mr. Devonshire."
After shaking hands with the excited Spitz couple who had celebrity faces but were ordinary people, William stretched out his hand and said, "Please, everyone, let's go in and talk."
"Thank you, thank you." Nick Spitz and Audrey Spitz thanked him profusely. The couple had never thought that an unexpected trip to Europe would happen.
Not only did they meet the Cavendish family, but they also met the super-rich and noble William. Now, they could directly watch France's grand celebration from a villa on the side of the Champs Elysees.
Walking into the villa, before the Spitz couple had time to marvel, they heard Charles Cavendish complain to William, "You shouldn't have bought this house, William. This has always been my aunt's former residence."
"Hmm?" Stopping, William frowned and turned to look at Charles. "Is that true?"
"You don't know?" Charles looked at the serious William in surprise. After thinking about it, he understood that there was no need for William, who was not short of money, to lie about this matter.
"Forget it." Charles shook his head. "You've already bought it. What's the use of talking about it?"
"No, of course it's useful. I have to know if someone has passed away in this house." William looked at Charles seriously. "You should understand that I can definitely find out if I want to, so tell me what you know."
"This, this …" Nick Spitz held his wife's hand and raised his hand helplessly. "Mr. Devonshire, can we use the bathroom?"
Looking at Mr. and Mrs. Spitz's expressions, William knew that they wanted to avoid suspicion. "No problem," he said as he led the three of them into the living room. He said to Jessie, "Dear, this is Mr. and Mrs. Spitz. Can you help me take care of these two guests?"
"Of course, dear." Jessie nodded in agreement.
William then apologized to the Spitz couple, "Excuse me for a moment."
"It's okay, it's okay." The Spitz couple nodded quickly.
After William left with Charles, Audrey whispered to her husband, "God, when he was frowning just now, I was so scared that I didn't even dare to breathe."
Although Nick Spitz had the same thought, as a man, he wouldn't admit it. "He does have the aura of a superior. No wonder he's the richest young man. However, why does he care so much about whether someone has passed away in this house?"
"Haha, you were also scared by William."
"Ah." The hostess heard her talking behind someone's back. Audrey quickly apologized, "I'm so sorry, I, I …"
"It's okay." Jessie waved her hand and didn't mind. Instead, she smiled and said, "William does look very scary when he's angry. A few days ago, I was also scared by him and didn't dare to speak."
"It can't be." Audrey looked at Jessie in surprise. Just now, William had called Jessie 'dear' in front of the couple.
"Don't misunderstand. Even if he's angry, he'll only frown," Jessie explained with a smile. "However, even if it's just a frown, it can make people breathless."
Hearing this, Audrey quickly nodded. "That's right. Fortunately, it wasn't directed at me just now."
Abigail explained, "I'm very sorry, Mrs. Spitz. William does have some taboos that we don't understand. I don't know where he learned those strange rules."
William, who was in the study, poured a glass of whiskey for Charles and said unhappily, "What made you so cautious? You came to my house and used two ordinary people as a cover. You even used your aunt's name to take the opportunity to talk to me alone."
"Someone wants me dead, and I'm here to give you money."
