Chapter 56
“Marsha Montgomery?” Ishac answered, but she did not sound interested at all.
After she said his name, Ishac once again shut her eyes and started meditating.
However, Lucy seemed to have expected Ishac’s reaction.
Then, she giggled and sat beside Ishac, teasing her, “Lady Ishac, are you uninterested? That’s your future husband.
I’ll have to call him Master Marsha when we meet.”
“I didn’t agree to it, so it doesn’t count.” Ishac’s expression did not change, and her tone was calm.
Although Ishac did not show it, Lucy knew well that Ishac cared about this matter.
Moreover, she cared about this more than anyone.
Otherwise, why would Ishac immediately run away from home when she heard the future husband she never met was coming and stayed at the old town’s ruins to avoid this matter?
Lucy did not say anything but just chuckled as she looked at Ishac.
After a while, Ishac appeared to be annoyed with Lucy’s stare, and she opened her eyes.
“Alright.
What’s with him?”
“He beat Jordan up,” Lucy quickly answered.
“That’s the big news?” Ishac was disappointed, and she shook her head, “Even though I never met Marsha, my dad should’ve chased him out of the Lawrence family for hitting our people.
Especially since he’s a son-in-law that’s marrying into our family.
It’s obvious he’s an aggressive and immature person from his act.”
“Chief James didn’t chase him away.” Lucy seemed to have expected Ishac’s reply.
She laughed and clapped her hands as she continued, “Moreover, Chief James not only did not blame Master Marsha, but he even rewarded him with two thousand fedulings, let him pick a martial skill from the martial art chamber, and gifted him the house where Jordan initially stayed.”
Ishac knew Lucy was making fun of her when she said “Master Marsha”, but Ishac was not displeased.
“Lucy, you’re not allowed to…”
Before Ishac could finish her sentence, Lucy interrupted her.
The little girl laughed sneakily.
“I’m just kidding, Lady Ishac.
It’s Marsha… Marsha.
I won’t address him wrongly again.
However, let’s skip this.
Come on! Guess why didn’t Chief James blame Marsha, but rewarded him in the council chamber in front of many elders of the clan.
Lady Ishac, I bet you didn’t know this, but I heard that Master Keith was so angry that he threw a big tantrum, and someone even had to feed him his dinner!”
As if she imagined how ridiculous Keith looked, Lucy laughed out loud.
After pondering for a moment, Ishac shook her head.
“I can’t think of why, but since dad did that, he must’ve had his reason.
Thus, was Marsha beating Jordan justified?”
Lucy held back her laughter and straightened her posture as she replied, “That’s right.
I heard Jordan wanted to snatch away Marsha’s weapon, and that’s why Marsha acted so ruthlessly.
Moreover, he not only hit Jordan once, he even smashed a chair on Jordan in the council chamber in front of everyone.”
Ishac’s eyes flashed with a thoughtful expression.
“If that’s the case, he’s still quite brave. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
However, I’m most surprised at the fact that he won against Jordan.”
Lucy giggled and added, “Lady Ishac, I bet you didn’t expect that, right? Furthermore, I’ve also heard that Marsha has reached the fourth stage of the True Martial Realm.”
Ishac’s eyes flickered, and there was a hint of seriousness on her face.
“Eh? If I’m not mistaken, Marsha should be sixteen like I am.
It’s indeed impressive that he reached the fourth stage of True Martial Realm at sixteen.
In the entire Evergreen Town, he’s considered a genius.
However, this might not be enough for Father to reward him so well.”
When she said that, Ishac looked at Lucy from the corner of her eye, who was smiling sneakily.
Then, she snorted, “Is there more to this that you’re not telling me?”
“LadyIshac, you’re indeed a smart…” Lucy purposely dragged the last word and exaggeratedly bowed to the ground.
Then, Lucy finally answered, “The next thing I’m saying is the big news that I wanted to tell you.
Lady Ishac, brace yourself!”
Realizing how serious Lucy appeared, Ishac could not help but be curious too.
“What is it?”
inscription skills, and the weapon that Jordan wan ted to snatch away was engraved by Marsha,” Lucy explained.
“Inscription skills!” Ishac gasped, and her eyes widened in surprise.
Ishac’s reaction satisfied Lucy, and she nodded.
“Not only that, Master William from Oceans Chamber of Commerce even wrote a letter to Chief James, saying that Marsha was his friend and his inscription was amazing.”
“What! Master William?!” Ishac shouted, “Master William from the Oceans Chamber of Commerce personally explained it?”
“Lady Ishac, calm down! Calm down! You’re a Pure Body Physique, so you must control your emotions!” Lucy quickly reminded Ishac when she noticed how agitated Ishac was.
“Lucy, are you sure you’re not lying to me?” Ishac stared at Lucy, not even blinking.
Lucy nodded her head a few times.
“I’m sure.
Many people were in the council chamber, and they all saw it.
Even though Chief James ordered them to keep their lips sealed, I’m afraid the entire Lawrence family knew about this.”
Then, Ishac looked at Lucy and suddenly sat cross-legged again, closing her eyes as she started meditating.
Her tone returned relaxed as she said, “Nonetheless, what about it? It still can’t change the fact that I hate him.”
“Lady Ishac…” Lucy dragged her tone again.
“You haven’t even met Master Marsha yet, so how can you hate him? You hate the fact that Old Master Lawrence arranged the marriage for you.”
“What do you know?!” Ishac pursed her lips and snorted.
At her age, girls would usually yearn for love and had beautiful fantasies of the opposite sex.
Ishac was the same too.
However, George told Ishac that she already had a future husband, and he would be here soon to marry her.
How could the arrogant Ishac accept such a matter?
How could she let someone else decide on who she should like!
Due to the anger she felt, Ishac naturally hated Marsha, who she never met.
Ishac could not help but say, “I’ve seen Marsha’s picture.
He’s just…”
At the thought of this, Ishac felt suspicious.
Mastered inscription skills, achieved the fourth stage of the True Martial Realm at 16, publicly beaten up Jordan, praised by William… All these matters did not look as if it would happen to that weak- looking teenager in the picture.
As if Lucy saw through Ishac‘s thoughts, and she smiled, “Lady Ishac, I’ve heard that Marsha doesn’t look the same as the portrait.
I’ve also heard people talking about him, saying he…”
Lucy purposely dragged her tone again, and she stopped mid-sentence.
“What did they say about him?” Ishac opened her eyes.
