Start As a Lord In a Viscount

"Your father is so strong, why did you come out to do business?"

Xia En spread his hands helplessly, "I can't help it, my family started with this, and my two brothers also came out of the business, and now they have completed the original accumulation, and they are working hard in those big cities. ."

"Then your family is miserable enough."

"It's okay, it's fortunate that I met you, otherwise I would have to run for a few more years. Now I have handed over the business to the people below. At present, I mainly focus on this aspect of iodized salt. It is estimated that after MSG comes Sales won't be that bad either."

"The topic is diverted, let's continue talking about Mrs. Sophia." Claire pulled the topic back.

"Oh! Anyway, now she is the current head of their family, and their family covers a wide range. Anyway, compared with us, it is the gap between the Titan and the ant. I just don't know how she fell in love with us. Come to the meeting in person, usually only one of your subordinates will be sent for this kind of thing." Xia En was not arrogant yet, thinking that the other party ended up in person because of his identity.

Although the identity of the third son of the Ansair family's head is bluffing enough, it is not enough to compare with the other party, at least before he inherits the title, and he still doesn't know if he can inherit the title.

"How old is she?" Claire continued to ask, not for any special reason, just casually.

"This is not clear. The age of those noblewomen is like a mystery. Few people know their age, but I can tell you that she is a big beauty, with a good figure, like a big white pear, and she looks very beautiful. I am in the nobles. I have seen it a few times at the party, and it left a deep impression on me, there are very few women in the capital who are better-looking than her." Xia En turned into a compliment to Sophia.

"Is it really that beautiful?" Claire couldn't help asking when she heard Shane's exaggerated description.

"She's not the kind of question about whether she's pretty or not, she's really the kind of... how should I put it, it's very attractive, one word: Run!"

Xia En pursed his lips, "Anyway, you can feel it when you see it."

Listening to his description, Claire came up with a rough picture, and said softly, "Peach type of light mature girl, I didn't expect you to like this type."

"You're right, the only pity is that she was married." Xia En smacked his lips.

"Isn't it normal to be married?"

"No, her husband is a waste, a very ordinary baron in the capital. He doesn't look good, and he has no ability. I don't know how she likes that person. Anyway, after the news came out, during that time. The single aristocrats in the entire royal capital are drinking alcohol to relieve their sorrows every day, shouting: How can I not be as good as him! Even those who have become families are beating their chests, and the entire royal capital's aristocratic circle has slumped by nearly one person. It took many months to recover, and although she is now divorced, there are still many nobles pursuing her."

"So exaggerated?" Claire asked in surprise.

"It's not an exaggeration at all. If you ask any local person in the capital, you know what's going on."

Claire also tried hard to recall her previous memory, and really found a little memory about this aspect, but he didn't pay much attention to it at the time, so he didn't remember it very clearly.

"Then how is her strength?"

"Business strength? Very strong. My father commented on her. She is a rare business genius for hundreds of years. After she took over, their family has risen to a new level. She also created the nationwide chain store. Now It has become one of the important economic pillars of the August family."

"But such a shrewd woman's vision should not be bad, right? The baron she chose is really useless at all?"

"Really not. Some people thought about it at the beginning. Maybe she discovered the bright spot in that man, but they have been married for more than ten years, and her ex-husband will only ask her for money and do business. What business went bankrupt, I heard that I was still messing around with flowers and weeds outside, and annoyed those nobles who originally admired Sophia, if Sophia sent someone to stop him, I would have killed that person." Shane said. At the time, I also hated itching teeth.

"However, after she inherited the title of earl, the baron was still messing around outside, and then she gave the ex-husband millions of gold coins, and later divorced, and she is still unmarried."

Xia En continued to regret, although he knew that a woman like Sophia would not like him, but it was really fucking bad, that person is such a bastard, and he could get millions of gold coins after a divorce. Xia En killed him His heart has it all.

"Everyone's evaluation of her is: a perfect woman, except for some blindness." Xia En said jokingly: "Damn, it's a pity, if I had given birth more than ten years earlier, maybe I could have saved her. "

But Claire narrowed her eyes, "After hearing what you said, I don't think it's that simple."

"How do you say it?" Shane was also interested. Every time he talked to Claire, he always realized something new.

"Let me ask you a few questions first, what is the succession order of the August family?"

"It's different from my family. We broke out through strength. Whoever is stronger will be in the top position, and the rest will be assisted. Everyone is convinced. The August family seems to be the eldest son, just like ordinary nobles. ."

"Sophia is the No. 1 pick?"

"The third place, she has two older brothers."

"Did that baron join the August family?"

"Yes... it is indeed a marriage." Xia En seemed to see something through the fog at this time, but he couldn't reach out and grab it.

"Both brothers are dead?"

"No... When the eldest brother went out to talk about business, he accidentally encountered a flying beast on the way back, but her second brother is now working for the August family in a big city outside the capital."

"Isn't that clear?"

"Ah?" Xia En still didn't understand, and hurriedly said: "You have aroused my curiosity, please elaborate!"

"I don't know if it's right or not, you can just listen to it as a story." Claire said first.

"According to the convention among nobles, female nobles who marry off have no right to inherit unless all the male heirs in the family die."

Shane nodded again and again, wanting to hear Claire continue.

"Then you contact the questions I asked you before. Sophia's husband is a married woman, which means that she has not married off and is not far from the power center of the August family, so she is still August. The third-in-line heir of the family is not far from the center of power at all, and some things in the family can also get involved."

"This is the most critical step. If she gets married, it will be very difficult to obtain the title of earl, so she found a son-in-law to come in so that she can continue to stay in the August family. ."

"Then is to let the baron go out to ruin his reputation, reduce his threat, and at the same time secretly attract more people and hold more power, plus her excellent business ability, the dozen or so married to the baron. She should have mastered most of the business of the August family in the past year, but this is not enough, there are two heirs above her..."

"So her eldest brother was killed?" Shane took a breath.

Claire nodded in agreement, and continued, "When her eldest brother died, did the head of the August family die?"

Shane's mouth twitched, "It's not dead yet. In less than half a year after Sophia's eldest brother died, she handed over all the properties of the August family to Sophia, and she also started from that time. became a countess."

There was a huge wave in Xia En's heart. Under the things that he thought were just so ordinary, there was such a huge wave hidden behind his back, but he hadn't noticed it all these years. After dinner, if Claire hadn't woken him up, he would have thought that Sophia was blind now.

Shane now even suspects that the previous head of the August family was forced to give up the position after Sophia killed her eldest brother and completely mastered the August family, and her second brother did not stop the other because of his interest. Inherited the title and survived.

"So my evaluation of her is: a shrewd perfect woman." Claire smacked her lips.

"Impossible, how can this kind of thing be hidden from everyone! My father never told me." Xia En rubbed his head.

"Maybe what your father knows, he just doesn't want to tell you juniors, and I said it before, this is just a story, just listen to it." Claire smiled.

Xia En thought about it, but it was not impossible. If it was as Claire had guessed, it would be impossible for his father to tell the inside story even if he knew something.

Claire patted Shane on the shoulder, "Isn't it a good thing if this is true? It means that she may not have had any intimate relationship with that ex-husband. You still have a chance."

Xia En fought a cold war, "No, no, I'm a little afraid of her after hearing what you said."

Xia En wiped the cold sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, suddenly remembered something, and jumped up suddenly.

"No! My eldest sister also seems to have a crush on a lord! She intends to include him in our family! Could she be imitating Countess Sophia!"

"Uh..." Claire was a little speechless, Shane became a frightened bird after hearing this story.

"Don't be surprised, isn't your family based on strength? What does she have to do with her son-in-law?"
