[Chapter 98 Earl Stewart’s Advice]

Sharon only replied with a simple but complicated sentence to David’s words: “Haha!”

After deciding on the gift, David would go out to buy a few gift boxes, otherwise it would not look good to just take out the gift.

By the way, he also wanted to inquire about the news. David felt that Lord Sutton-Stewart should be quite famous in the capital, which could be seen from the conversation between the two guards when entering the inner city.

Sharon’s information was probably sold by one of the guards. I wonder how much it was sold for?

Walking on the streets of the inner city, the inner city of the capital has a good environment. The stone-paved road is clean and flat, and the buildings on both sides of the street also maintain a good image. Compared with the dirty and messy outer city, it is indeed much better.

David did not spend too much time to find the shop selling gift boxes.

To be precise, this shop is right next to the hotel, just a few steps away.

According to the shop owner, guests who can stay in the hotel in the inner city are those who often interact with nobles. Whether they are nobles from other places or have other identities, they can’t help but give gifts to each other when interacting with nobles in the city. Gift boxes are very popular here.

By the way, David also asked about the information of Earl Stuart.

He originally thought that ordinary people would not discuss the information of an earl too much, but he didn’t expect that the earl didn’t seem to care about this, and his name was known to everyone in the Royal City of Tilan. According to the shop owner, even ordinary people in the outer city often talk about this earl in their daily lives. The

younger brother of the current queen; the most “romantic” man in the Kingdom of Tilan; the number one playboy in the Kingdom of Tilan; the number one scumbag in the Kingdom of Tilan; the dream lover of countless women in the Kingdom of Tilan (a certain earl called himself) and other titles all belong to this Earl Sutton-Stewart.

David, who bought a gift box with a bunch of information, didn’t waste any more time and walked back to the hotel directly.

“You’re back so soon? Didn’t you go to get some information?”

Sharon put the things in her hand back to their original place in a panic. The old alchemist in Newton was not in the living room. He should have gone back to his room to rest or study David’s Hammer of Judgment.

“The information about the earl is easier to get than expected. You can find a shop owner on the roadside and he can tell you a lot.”

After briefly telling the news she had found out, Sharon’s image of the earl gradually became three-dimensional and full, and at the same time, she became more disgusted.

It sounds like he is just a scum who relies on his status to harm beautiful women everywhere!

“At least I haven’t heard that this earl has used any violent means to rob the women he likes.”

“Because of his status and position, he suppressed all the news?”

The two discussed for a few words. Before such a thing really happened, neither of them could make a direct conclusion.

As he spoke, David put the prepared gift into the box, and asked the hotel for paper and pen separately, wrote a simple explanation and put it in the box together.

As the sun gradually approached the horizon, but before the world fell into a dark yellow, the person sent by Earl Stewart arrived.

“Two distinguished guests, these are the dresses that the Earl prepared for you.”

The leading attendant, who was the one who had brought the jewelry gift earlier, introduced the two dresses to David and Sharon in a very calm tone. David

didn’t care about the words that the top tailor in the city of Tilan personally designed and sewed them, used some precious materials, and how long it took.

After the attendant finished his introduction, he smiled and said that he was not going to change the dress, but to keep the current outfit to meet the Earl.

“This…”

The attendant was a little confused. It seemed that he didn’t expect that there would be a commoner who would so bluntly reject the kindness of an Earl. In the past, even if the guests were not happy, they would not refuse to change the dress. Maybe these two country bumpkins didn’t understand the value of these two dresses at all.

The attendant quickly regained his composure. The confusion and disdain on his face only lasted for less than two seconds. Ordinary people could not perceive his actual thoughts at all.

Thinking about his master’s order, the servant did not force David and Sharon to wear the dresses prepared for them, but politely invited them to go downstairs.

“The carriage is waiting for you two, please follow me.”

David and Sharon looked at each other. The other party’s attitude was better than they expected. Following the servant out of the hotel and getting on the carriage, David noticed the gazes coming from all over the place. These people were looking at him and Sharon beside him. He

could also hear voices like

“It’s Earl Stewart’s carriage!”

“Who has the Earl taken a fancy to again?”

“It seems to be a young couple. The Earl likes this the most!”

“Oh~ poor guy, maybe this is their last day together.”

David heard all kinds of conversations, and Sharon heard a lot of them. It was not until they sat in the carriage that those faint conversations were completely isolated.

As the carriage was moving, David looked outside through the window next to him. The carriage quickly turned from the commercial district of the inner city to another street, and passed a sentry before turning into this street.

“It’s the guest of Lord Stuart.”

The attendant sat next to the coachman and told the fully armed soldiers the identity of the passengers in the car. The soldiers didn’t even come to check, but just glanced at the carriage curiously and let the carriage pass the sentry.

David saw through the window that the soldier and another colleague seemed to be whispering, but unfortunately there was no way to hear any sound.

“This carriage, is it enchanted? The sound insulation is a bit too good.”

David continued to look out the window. After passing the sentry, the carriage entered a street with a flatter and cleaner road. On both sides of the street were the best houses David had ever seen since he came to this world. They were basically mansions with independent front and back courtyards and buildings like small castles.

The distance between these mansions was relatively far, so there were large tracts of open space on both sides of the street. David guessed that these wastelands were lawns in summer.

“It looks like a rich neighborhood.” Sharon also looked out through the other window: “The people living here should all be nobles from the capital, right?”

“There should be many high-ranking officials of the Kingdom of Tilan.” David retracted his sight because the carriage had turned into one of the courtyards.

The carriage did not stop, but continued to pull the two to the backyard before stopping.

The door opened, and David got off the carriage first and met Earl Sutton-Stewart who had been waiting here for a long time.

Earl Stewart did not react to David and Sharon not wearing the dresses he gave him. It seemed that the earl had received the news before David got off the car.

When Sharon got off the carriage, Earl Stewart said in his welcome: “It’s a pity. Wearing that set of jewelry on you will make your blonde hair and skin more dazzling.”

Sharon has long golden hair that is as bright as holy light, a sweet face and a tall and fit figure. Even in the eyes of Earl Stewart, who has seen countless beauties, this young girl in front of him is the best of the best.

Now it seems that it is not an easy task to capture this prey.

While greeting the two, Stewart led David and Sharon to a long table, which was decorated with tableware, candles, flowers and other decorations.

When everyone sat down, the servants immediately came up to take away the extra decorations on the table and put clean wet towels and other items.

It seems that it is not convenient to arrange seats for three people to eat at a rectangular table. In fact, the chairs have been placed long ago, two of which are located at the farthest ends of the long table, and the other is placed diagonally opposite one of them.

Stuart sat alone at one end, David sat at the other end, and Sharon sat diagonally opposite David.

“Welcome to Tilan.” After sitting down, Earl Stuart used this sentence as an opening remark, and signaled the servant to serve the food: “I heard that David came to the royal city to handle the village upgrade?”

“Yes.” David knew that when he was asking about Stuart, the earl also asked about his and others’ information.

Just to pick up a girl, is it necessary to ask so much? David began to wonder what the earl wanted to do?

After eating a few bites of the food, Earl Stuart suddenly raised his glass and stared at David with expectant eyes: “I think Mr. David’s trip will be very smooth. Maybe I should express my congratulations in advance. What do you think, Mr. Mayor?”

David looked at Earl Sutton-Stewart, who was sitting not far in front of him. His words were easy to understand. He almost told David directly that he could help a little in this matter.

“So, what’s the price?”

“I like talking to smart people.” Earl Stewart took a sip of the fruit wine in the glass, and was happy that David, a commoner from a small country town, could immediately understand what he meant: “I admire Sharon very much, and I hope she can accompany me to appreciate the sunrise tomorrow.”

“…”

Looking at the silent David, Earl Stewart did not rush to urge him. He looked at Sharon’s face a few more times before adding a few words: “I believe your Excellency will be very worried that Miss Sharon will not rest well in an unfamiliar environment. Maybe you should stay and take care of her.”

“…”

Earl Stewart did not give David time to “consider” this time, and immediately urged: “What do you think of my suggestion? Baron!”

“My Lord Earl, you seem to have asked the wrong person.” David shouted “good guy” in his heart, while enduring the constant pain in his calf, and calmly expressed his attitude: “I have no right to make any decisions for Sharon.”
