Chapter 410: Chapter 410 – Pleading for Mercy
Giving the impression that he was weak was not much of a problem but a hassle in the eyes of Ardim.
It was not a big problem, but it could easily cause some troubles.
For example, the previous Ella incident.
Under normal circumstances, with the other party’s identity, how could she dare to rush in front of Ardim, yell in front of him, or even ask him to let her subordinate go?
If Ardim were in the other party’s position, he would probably come to apologize at the first moment, and draw a clear line with those people.
But the other party didn’t play his cards according to normal circumstances and instead directly shouted. That attitude looked quite arrogant.
Ardim could only shake his head in response.
“Forget it…”
Walking on the road, he sighed and said softly, “Since that’s the case, let’s use this opportunity to refresh our impression…”
“Let’s start with this person in front of us.”
A brand-new impression needed to start from some important matters.
In this aspect, Ella was directly delivered to his doorstep.
Since she had already delivered herself to him, she might as well not leave.
She might as well just stay.
Thus, Ella remained in the manor of the Yaru family.
As for her subordinates, they could not leave as she wished. Ardim had personally cut down each and every one of them as a source of Slaughter Power.
The news was quickly leaked.
A few days later.
“What!”
Eloise suddenly stood up in the spacious and gorgeous manor and looked at the person in front of her, her face full of disbelief. “Ella was detained by Ardim?”
“Why is that?”
She looked at the person in front of her, her face full of disbelief.
“Your Highness, please save Ella.”
In front of Eloise, a middle-aged woman stood there, her face full of worry.
She looked at Eloise and slowly told her about what had happened in the past few days.
Ever since Ella had barged into the Ardim Manor that day, Ella had not been able to move. She had been directly detained by the Yaru family and imprisoned within.
Ella’s own family had also suffered a huge blow during this process.
Their family’s original business and chamber of commerce had all been cut off by others. It was as if they had been abandoned overnight and were boycotted by the others.
For some reason, the security officers from all over had often come to investigate them. They had found many problems with them.
Almost overnight, a noble family was in a difficult situation.
After a few days, they finally found out the reason.
Ella directly barged into the manor of the successor of the Yaru family and questioned him. This caused the successor of the Yaru family to be angry, and therefore, she was detained.
The family behind Ella was also implicated and was directly targeted.
The power of the Yaru family was undoubtedly enormous.
Within the city of Kaner, with just a single sentence from the other party, the family behind Ella was instantly forced into a desperate situation. Not only were there many problems with their business, even some of the noble families that were on good terms with them frantically distanced themselves from them at this moment, as if they were afraid of being implicated by them.
Without a doubt, this kind of life was very difficult.
They had no choice but to find Eloise, hoping to ask for Eloise’s help and plead with Ardim.
“Your Highness Eloise, please help us…”
In front of Eloise, the middle-aged woman had a sorrowful expression on her face. “Your uncle’s health is not good, and Ella is his only child…”
“We know that Lord Ardim listens to you the most…”
“Please help us for the sake of Ella and your uncle…”
Her face was full of pain. She looked at Eloise and begged bitterly.
Looking at the woman in front of her, Eloise was silent for a long time before she finally nodded.
Ella and Eloise’s relationship was very good in the past.
Ella’s father was Eloise’s mother’s cousin. Both of them were blood-related.
In the past, it was precisely because of the good relationship between Ella and Eloise that Ella and Ardim were familiar with each other and dared to speak to him like this.
But now, everything seemed to have changed.
Recalling Ardim’s attitude before this, Eloise was inexplicably silent. At this moment, her mood became somewhat heavy.
Although it had only been half a month, she could clearly feel the change recently.
At first, she didn’t feel it, but now, she clearly realized the importance of Ardim to her.
When Ardim was still around and was willing to pursue her, people around her came to please her. No matter what she wanted, it seemed to be particularly easy.
Even her brothers and sisters were very kind to her.
But when Ardim revealed his previous attitude, everything in front of her changed.
Around her, the people who were originally circling around her disappeared.
These people were originally willing to pursue her because of Ardim’s identity. It wasn’t for anything else. They just wanted her to say a few good words in front of Ardim.
To Ardim, the successor of the Yaru family, his every move was enough to change the future of others, and he had great power.
As for Eloise herself?
To put it nicely, she was indeed a princess, but she didn’t have any influence or power.
So what if she was noble?
It wasn’t surprising that there were so many such people in Kanai City.
Her brothers, who had been friendly to her, seemed to have become cold and distant recently.
Perhaps for them, they had thought of Eloise as someone who could win over the future Duke, Ardim, and that was why they had paid so much attention to her.
But now, after what had happened, the possibility of Eloise becoming a Duchess had greatly decreased.
This was naturally of no use to them.
It was the same in other aspects.
Eloise could feel that after the change in Ardim’s attitude, the environment around her was gradually becoming worse.
It couldn’t be compared to his original situation.
No, or rather, this was the environment that she should have been in.
As for the previous situation, it was an additional thing brought about by the attitude of Ardim, the son of a duke.
Now, when Ardim left, these things were naturally slowly lost.
During this time, Eloise realized this.
This couldn’t help but make her feel a little disappointed.
It turned out that between her and Ardim, Ardim was more important.
At least for her, the power that Ardim represented was something that an ordinary princess like her couldn’t compare to..
