Looking at this, the president and his wife are quite reasonable, knowing that Daemon
has a fiancée, they stopped their daughter from going out to cause havoc.
The girl, on the other hand, looks like she should have suffered some stimulation and
has some mental problems, a poor person.
All in all, this family were reasonable people.
Thinking of this, Derila didn't care that much and turned around and went back to
the main hall.
By now, the dinner was over and the president suggested a trip to his hunting grounds,
which the men were looking forward to.
"I won't be going, you guys play." Daemon kept looking at Derila, who was carrying
her skirt and coming from the back hall with a cute, confused look on her face.
"Daemon, it's only nine o'clock, stay and play for a while." Holliga smiled and said,
"Riri is here anyway, you can just think of it as playing with her, otherwise, how boring
it would be for her to be bored in the castle everyday."
"Play what?" Derila had just walked over when she heard the words.
"Going hunting in the hunting ground, does Riri like it?" The president asked
affectionately.
"I won't be going." Derila had never liked hunting animals, but she also knew she
was powerless to change anything, so she had to stay away.
"Then instead of going to the hunting ground, go to the basement and play chess." The
president suggested with a smile, "There are some simple games there that you ladies
can play too."
"Yes, Riri, I've had tea prepared especially for you, you haven't tried it yet." The
President's wife also greeted warmly.
Both the president and his wife were centred on Derila, completely obeying her,
while the others were watching her face.
At this time, even if Derila was arrogant and unrestrained, she still felt a little
embarrassed, besides, Daemon would have to deal with these in the future, and sooner
or later she would have to blend in.
Thinking of this, Derila twisted her head to look at Daemon, who also looked at
her, as if asking her what she meant.
"Alright then." Seeing that Daemon did not insist on leaving, Derila thought that he
must also be willing to stay, so she changed her tone and said, "Thank you, Mr.
President, and thank you, Madam!"
"Excellent!" Holliga applauded happily, "We can have a good sparring session with
Daemon tonight."
"Didn't you lose enough last time?" Kevin teased.
"Say it as if you didn't lose." Holliga gave Kevin a blank look.
"Hahahaha……" The president laughed, "I didn't even know that Daemon was so good
at even playing cards."
"He's unforgettable and can remember cards." Gerard sighed, "The three of us lose
badly every time."
"I must have seen it then." The president greeted everyone and went down to the
basement.
The president's wife also greeted the women downstairs, and Derila glanced over
at the bodyguards, all of whom had left the hall, and no one had followed them except
for Harrison.
Monica waved at her and stood far away.
Derila felt a little embarrassed to have brought her here specifically, but it turned
out that she was with the bodyguards the whole time and didn't seem to be involved.
When the group arrived in the basement, the men gathered around the card table and
started playing cards, still chatting and discussing international events.
Derila felt that whatever game they were playing was an excuse and that the
conversation was the real business.
That president looked amiable, but his eyes were very shrewd and kept observing every
man's words and actions without moving. He also wanted to take this opportunity to see
what each person was capable of.
Daemon did not say much, but every word was to the point, and everyone present was
watching his face, including the president.
On the women's side, every one of them was also with an agenda, all carefully buttering
up the President's wife, while not daring to offend Derila, and also secretly
observing her every word and action.
And this time, instead of being at the men's table, Penny was chatting with several wives
on the women's side, and that eight-faced emotional intelligence was impeccably
perfect.
