"But why do I hear that although Audrey is the eldest miss, she's actually not rich at all? That's because something happened to the Davis family recently. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like she has any spare money..."
Whispers sounded from the side.
Audrey closed her eyes. When she opened them again, her beautiful azure-blue eyes were already emitting light.
"I didn't expect to meet a few young masters here. It's really my honor." Audrey smiled. Her aura was as stunning as an irises flower, it was as though everyone could sense the faint fragrance of the flowers.
Klein raised his eyebrows. He had thought that Audrey would be like the legends where she did not even dare to answer and would just turn around and leave. He did not expect her to be so gracious.
Hobart urged coldly, "If you want to come over, hurry up and sit here. Don't waste any more time. I don't have so much time to play this kind of game with you guys."
Klein said to Audrey, "Since our other families have gathered all of them, as a member of the Davis family, do you want to join us?"
"Let me tell you first. Since this is your first time joining our bet, you don't have to give anything. You only have one item on you as a bargaining chip. If you win, all the items on our table will be given to you."
Such a condition sounded too generous. Even some of the people around them began to stir.
"Such a good thing actually happened. Why don't you let me go? If I'm lucky, I won't have to worry about the rest of my life."
"What are you doing? Didn't you just act like you wouldn't go even if you were beaten to death? Why do you want to go over as soon as you heard this sentence?"
"Although that's what I said, I'm still considered a member of the Davis clan. I can take the place of the Davis clan, right?"
At this moment, another high-pitched voice suddenly burst out from the crowd.
"Since that's the case, why don't you let me do it?"
The crowd looked up and saw a girl in a long robe standing not far away. Her facial features were very flamboyant and beautiful. She could be considered a special beauty.
"Let me introduce myself first. I'm Sabina of the Davis family. Since that trash Audrey isn't willing to participate, why don't you let me do it? After all, I'm also a member of the Davis family."
Sabina glanced at Audrey with a disdainful look when she said this.
Audrey raised her eyes to look at her.
She did not know which side branch of the family Sabina was from. Compared to her, who had a direct bloodline, Sabina could not be compared at all. Now, she could actually step on her head.
It seemed like the matter of her being a piece of trash had been deeply rooted in people's hearts.
Audrey curled her lips coldly. She did not notice the teasing looks in the eyes of the people beside her.
It was especially so for Klein. He had taken out a folding fan from nowhere and placed it in front of his face. He was fanning himself slowly, looking very relaxed.
The Demon Beasts that had already tied the flags on the table let out a series of screeches. Clearly, they were urging the competition to proceed quickly.
"Miss Audrey, since you don't want to participate, why don't you let me be the representative of the Davis family?" Sabina's face was filled with ridicule.
Audrey only lowered her eyes indifferently."When did I say that I don't want to participate?
"And where did you come from? You must know that the four young masters present here are all direct descendants. Logically speaking, only someone like me is worthy of participating in this gamble. As for you, if I'm not wrong, just your name alone would have to be searched a hundred and eighty times in the family tree."
When she said that, everyone around her was shocked.
Ross, in particular, had a dumbfounded expression on her face.
When she first met Audrey, she had been very gentle and would not throw a tantrum. When did she suddenly turn into such a sharp-tongued person?
However, he had to admit that.
This sentence was indeed very reasonable.
That was because they valued the purity of bloodlines. No matter who it was, they could not easily tolerate a side chamber challenging the pressure of a direct descendant. As long as they tolerated it, they would tacitly acknowledge that this side chamber's position was higher than that of a direct descendant.
"You!" Sabina had never expected Audrey to suddenly counterattack.
Moreover, what the other party said made sense. Even if she wanted to retort, she could not find any opportunity to do so.
After all, the purity of her bloodline was apparent on the surface. Everyone could see it. Even if she wanted to argue, she could not do anything about it.
Just as Sabina was about to say something to defend herself, she heard a chuckle from the side.
"Haha..." Klein covered his face with his folding fan.
Hobart looked at him helplessly."Do you know that this is a very impolite thing to do?"
"Ah, I'm sorry, because I really can't help it." Klein held back his laughter, but just from the trembling tone, one could tell what he was like now.
