Chapter 561 He might not remember the gifts he received, but he would definitely remember the ones he didn't receive by noon the next day.
In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, thick silk curtains block the glaring sunlight, allowing only a few golden rays to shine through the gaps in the curtains.
"Hiss—" Raine, still hungover, slowly woke up, rubbing his slightly aching head and taking a deep breath.
"woke up?"
Naked Caroline leaned against Ryan's chest, resting her head on his arm, and tilted her head to ask.
“Hmm.” Raine sat up in bed.
Looking at Caroline's fair shoulders and neck, as well as the red marks on her body, Ryan recalled what had happened last night.
"Sorry, Caroline, I drank a little too much last night," Ryan said with an apologetic smile.
He then reached out and gently stroked Caroline's neck, instantly fading the red mark that represented the madness of the previous night.
Caroline shook her head, got out of bed, walked to the wardrobe, took out her underwear and clothes, and put them on in front of Renn.
After getting dressed, Caroline said, "Shall I tell the kitchen to prepare some hangover soup for you?"
Renn shook his head: "No need for that."
After saying that, Renn gently touched his forehead with his finger, and a light blue light flashed by, relieving most of Renn's headache.
Seeing that Ryan didn't need it, Caroline went over and opened the curtains in front of the window, letting the sunlight into the room.
"I made plans with Helena and the others to buy some jewelry this afternoon, so I can't keep you company for now," Caroline said with a smile as she pushed open the door and walked out of the room.
Not long after Caroline left, the inner door of the room opened, and Eve entered the room with Cecily and other personal maids.
Several ordinary maids followed behind, pushing food carts.
...
Night fell quickly.
Ryan came to the Mitchell family at Anna's invitation.
Although the Mitchell family dinner was postponed by a day, it was even more grand than usual.
The main reason is still Rennes.
Because Renn rarely attends banquets, the nobles of the royal city rarely have the opportunity to come into contact with him.
Before Renn led the Knights to destroy the three major families, things were alright. Although the nobles respected Renn, they were not so eager to befriend him.
But after the three great families were destroyed, the situation changed, and the nobles of the royal city all wanted to befriend Renn.
After all, the emperor would give advance notice before exterminating their family and would leave some descendants behind.
But Renn is different; he kills according to the family tree!
If I could befriend Ryan, make a good impression, and then send him some gifts and beautiful women.
If they really offend Renn, he might give them a heads-up in advance, considering the gifts and the beauty he's given them in the past.
Then they go through a series of procedures to apologize, and maybe the family crisis will be over.
At the entrance of the Mitchell family manor, one luxurious carriage after another lined up, with the drivers standing in neat rows with great manners.
The royal dukes were the same few who were on good terms with Lyman, but most of the marquises and earls from the royal city came.
The remaining small portion of those who didn't come were nobles who had a bad relationship with the Mitchell family or who hadn't received an invitation from them.
After all, there are requirements for the scale of a marquis's family's banquet; it cannot exceed the scale of a duke's or emperor's banquet.
Therefore, there will always be some unlucky nobles who do not receive an invitation from the Mitchell family.
The gate to the Mitchell family estate.
Lyman and Anna stood at the gate to greet the arriving nobles.
