The Princess And The Lord

Chapter 1182 Meet The Machiavellian





The Hamilton family owns 60 percent of the Ellecant group while 25 percent is owned by his family, the Augburn family, and the rest is shared among the rest of other people. Therefore, it is clear that the Hamilton family authority in the Ellecant group is far above them.

Realizing this, the Augburn family encouraged Ron to marry Lilliane, who happened to be the same age as Ron. With Ron's flirtatious nature, everyone including Ron himself thought this an easy task, but who would have thought that Lilly wasn't as gentle as she seemed, she was stubborn, outspoken, and quite opinionated as well, Lilly was also not easy to please and doesn't seem to care about his approach which gives Ron a headache.

On the other hand, his family wouldn't stop asking about the progress of their relationship and blamed him when he gain no satisfaction result.

The truth is, the Augburn family had never placed any expectations on Ron since he was not as smart and diligent as his older brother, he was also weak and a coward thus he spent his time hiding inside the private bunker during the Dark Age war without daring taking a step out of the bunker.

One day all of a sudden Ron was given an important role that would ensure his family's prosperity, Hence Ron also really wants to make his father proud and show his brother that he is not a loser like everyone thought yet the fact remains, he is still unable to subdue Lily.

When he felt stressed and cornered Linda comes and offers a way out. Linda has been Lilly's friend since middle school, although their relationship is not very close but they know each other quite a lot since they went to the same school.

In contrast to Lilly, Linda is fun, passionate, and sexy, coupled with a seductive body and an alluring face, Ron cannot escape Linda's temptations. The thing is, he can't let Lilly go because of his family, luckily Linda doesn't mind being his mistress if he marries Lilly later, heck, this solves all his dilemmas.

Just when he almost succeeded Lilly caught him cheating on her with Linda, not wanting his efforts all along to go to waste Ron bought more charms to increase Lilly's fondness for him, unfortunately, his plan is ruined when Lory destroys all his expensive charms even told Lilly what he had done. 

If Hamilton's family finds out about this then his legacy will be up and to make matters worse his family most likely won't help him, he knows he will be abandoned by his family as soon as this news gets out, so he cannot let Lilly go, not before he can convince her to be with him. But how could he do that?

Lilly didn't care about Ron, the only thing she wanted was to leave this place even though everything that happened was Ron's fault, yet she can't help to blame her stupidity, he had heard rumors about how wild Ron was but he felt he had no right to judge Ron's decisions in his life besides he doesn't force anyone or so she thought.

Unfortunately, the Augburn family was the second largest shareholder in her family group, therefore Lily thought she should maintain good relations with Ron for the Augburn family's sake, but her weakness caused her to almost lose her sanity if not because of Lory she doesn't want to imagine what would happen to her, maybe she will end up marrying that disgusting loser!

Seeing Lilly about to leave, Ron turned to panic despite the pain in his body he screamed and begged "Lilly, don't leave me, I will leave Linda, I promise I will not involve with any woman for the rest of my life, please give me a chance, I love you!"

Linda's eyes widened in shock, she never thought she would be discarded so easily and openly like this, her face immediately become red from rage, "Ron, you can't do this with me!" she grabbed Ron's arm.

"Let me go Linda!" he jerked his hand away from Linda's.

"Ron, I have given everything for you - everything! you cannot do this to me, not after everything I've done for you!"

"I can and I will! besides you give yourself to a lot of men before so don't act like you are doing this only with me, everyone know you are a slu* and gold digger!" Ron was spewing his anger out freely so everyone could hear him.

Lilly felt nothing but nausea, she couldn't believe she was kissing this man-whore, Lilly reminded herself to rinse her mouth and brush her teeth intensively then check her health for possible infectious diseases from that man.

Lory got worried when she saw how pale Lilly's face was as if she was going to pass out, Lory put her arm around Lily's shoulder to help her walk.

"Lily don't go!" Ron was still screaming and shouting incoherently.

"ENOUGH!" a baritone voice loudly heard.

Lory and Lilly's steps came to an abrupt halt, out of curiosity they turned their eyes toward the source of the sound.

Instantly, the sea of the crowd gradually parted not long after a brown-haired man wearing a well-fitting dark gray suit walked with firm steps behind him two male assistants wearing dark suits followed him, The man's got imposing presence as if he was on the stage and all the lights shine on him.

The ladies were mesmerized when a man in a gray suit walked past them, the man was taller than average, he had broad shoulders and a fit body clad in an expensive suit coupled with a classic handsome face, high cheekbones, and dark blue eyes, he managed to make all the ladies squeal and giggle.

Lory only glanced briefly to see who had arrived after that her focus returned to Lilly again, it was hard to impress Lory when she grew up with people like the  Archknights and the four Palace's Kings so in Lory's eyes the man's appearance was fairly ordinary just a bit above average and when she compared him to Zhao Li Xin... well, let's not go that way.

"Bro...brother?" Ron's voice trembled he didn't look pleased by his brother's presence.

"That's Jacob Augburn," Lilly whispered warily.

Jacob Augburn sounded familiar then Lory remembered some of the news he had read about Jacob Augburn's contribution in distributing food to various shelters during the dark times of war he also helped L'markieth in the provision of food and medicine.

Lory didn't know how it goes because at that time she already left L'markieth but one thing was certain, the Augburn family's reputation was rapidly increasing among the public and also the government in various countries including Harland as a result the family gain many advantages soon after the war's end they were reward with big contract and invitation to collaboration from many people which then led to an increase of Ellecant group shares value.

Unfortunately, since Jacob had made a great contribution to the Hamilton family, which meant this would make it difficult for Lily if she wanted to prosecute Ron, maybe Lilly was just bluffing though it inevitably put tension between Hamilton and Augburn unless the Augburn family let go of their young son, if that was the case, no wonder Ron looked so terrified and Lilly look anxious.

It wasn't clear what was discussed between Ron and Jacob, but one could tell from Ron's movements that he was very frightened, but since Jacob was standing with his back to the crowd, it wasn't clear what expression was on his face, but Lory could tell it wouldn't be good.

"You want to go?" Lory asked casually while tilting her head.

Lilly bit her lower lip looking hesitant, Ron was joking but Jacob was another thing she remembered when her grandfather found out she was dating Ron he told her to be careful with the Augburn, especially Jacob Augburn she didn't know why but knew she saw Jacob with her own eyes he could see a mixed yellow and orange aura which indicated he was deceitful then added the mix of dark green and indigo indicating that the person was ambitious and greedy in short, in conclusion, Jacob was not a good person, much worst than Ron who strangely exuded different aura perhaps it because she was bewitched by the charms.
