Resurrection, It's Really Toxic To My System
Chapter 225 Jealousy
Count Aisha paused, thinking it was due to a reduction in taxes, and frowned.
This is a major matter for her Xinghui City. If the tax revenue is reduced, how can she support her Xinghui Legion? This is the guarantee of her title, and there is no room for problems.
So he asked in a cold voice: "Tell me! Is someone embezzling taxes?"
Count Elsa's expression immediately startled the other three.
"Husband, madam, no, no, this week's tax revenue is more than 2.3 million lacs!" Lord Felit replied with a trembling voice.
"What! Two million and three hundred thousand lacs?" Count Elsa's charming face was full of shock.
"Yes, it is!"
"Isn't it usually more than 800,000? Why is there so much more this week!" Count Elsa asked in disbelief.
"My Lord Earl, this is all because of Kayana's two maids and the boy named Lin Jun." Bokai gritted his teeth and added.
"Hiss! This has something to do with them?"
Count Elsa was even more shocked.
"Yes, this is all because they opened a small store called Hao Jiayi, and the extra tax of more than one million yuan was paid by their store."
"In other words, the taxes paid by their store alone are more than the taxes of our entire Xinghui City?"
"Yes, Lord Count!"
"Huh! This Mr. Lin is not simple!" The city lord's wife exclaimed, then glanced at the two men from the corner of her eyes, "But isn't this great? Then what are your expressions?"
"Madam, you see that they pay so much tax, so the profits they earn are even greater."
Seeing Count Elsa's calm expression, Felit immediately became anxious.
"Oh? What do you want?"
Count Elsa picked up a can of Coke and took a sip, pretending to be casual and asked.
"I think this store should be taken over by the City Lord's Mansion."
"Yes! Lord Earl, I also agree with Lord City Lord. After all, how can those three commoners be qualified to have such rich wealth..."
Even Kayana felt uncomfortable hearing Felit and Bokai's words and frowned.
"boom!"
Count Elsa slapped the table with her palm and shouted angrily: "Shut up, you two idiots!"
"lady!"
"My Lord Count!"
Felit and Bokai were immediately startled by this scene.
Earl Aisha looked at Felit coldly, "If you weren't my daughter's father, you wouldn't even be qualified to be the city lord."
As he said that, he looked at the commander of the Bokai Army again.
There was a look of extreme disappointment in his eyes, "You have disappointed me so much. If you only have an ordinary mind, I think you should put your marriage with Kayana aside for now."
"Mom, don't be angry. Father and Brother Bokai didn't do it on purpose."
Even though Kayana said this, she was also a little disappointed with Bokai.
Not to mention that Bailey and Laura were both her classmates and friends, but that Jun Lin was also her savior. If her family did something like this, how could she have the face to face Bailey and the others in the future.
So when her mother told her to put her marriage on hold, she didn't feel nervous at all.
"Your Majesty the Earl! It's a mistake to be humble."
The commander of the Bokai Army knelt on one knee and lowered his head.
Invisibly, the hands were clenched tightly, and their expressions were extremely ferocious.
And Philit was not much better, pretending to be a grandson.
"Hmph! You brainless idiot! If you have such thoughts in the future, stop being the city lord."
With that said, he stood up and took Kayana's hand, "Didn't you say that Bailey invited you to her house to attend what?"
"Hmm... It seems to be called a birthday party!" Kayana tilted her head and thought about it.
"Yes! Mother will go with you."
"Yeah!"
The mother and daughter just left.
Only two silent men were left.
After an unknown amount of time, Felit suddenly stood up with a ferocious look on his face.
"Crash!" Everything on the table was swept to the floor.
"Damn! Damn, damn stinky woman!"
Bokai's expression changed, he looked at the maids around him, and quickly stepped forward to stop him, "Lord City Lord, be careful what you say!"
"Go away, what do you know? You know nothing. I am nothing in front of that woman. She will always only have her Xinghui City in her heart. Damn, hateful!"
Felit looked a little crazy.
It shows how much he hates Count Elsa.
After venting for a while, Felit slowly calmed down.
Then he comforted Bo Kai, who was thinking about whether to kill those maids.
"Don't worry, these are all my people."
"You all come here."
The four beautiful spirit maids responded quickly: "Yes! Master!"
As soon as the maid approached, Felit pushed one of the maids onto the table.
"Hiss!"
"I'm very angry now!"
Philit acted like an animal in front of everyone with a crazy expression.
"Go to hell, go to hell..."
...
On the road, a luxury carriage was surrounded by a group of silver-armored soldiers.
"Mother, didn't you tell me not to get too close to Mr. Lin?"
Kayana looked at Count Elsa in confusion.
"Haha! Silly child, that's because mother didn't know that he had the ability to protect herself, so she asked you to keep a distance from him so as not to cause trouble for him." Earl Elsa caressed Kayana's head lovingly.
"What about now? Aren't you afraid of causing trouble for him?"
"Can the person who can make Bailey and the others millionaires in just a few days be someone who is afraid of trouble?"
Kayana seemed to understand, making Aisha shake her head helplessly.
She was sure that without her, Kayana would not be able to defend Xinghui City.
This is also what she has been worried about.
And she had long seen that Bokai was by no means a good match for Kayana.
Nor will he be the brave man who can protect Kayana.
That's why he took this opportunity to cancel their marriage.
And seeing that Kayana didn't object, it became even more certain that Kayana didn't really have love for Bokai, maybe it was more of a brother-sister relationship.
"Kayana, tell your mother honestly whether you are interested in that Mr. Lin."
Hearing her mother's sudden question, Kayana's mind came back to that elegant figure that night.
His face suddenly turned red, and he quickly dug into the gap between Count Elsa's chest in embarrassment.
"Mother! What are you talking about? There is no such thing!"
Seeing her like this, Count Elsa couldn't help but know what she meant, and a sad look appeared on her face.
"Hey! Kayana promised her mother that you can make friends with him, but you can't like him. He will only be your helper in the future, but he will never be your husband."
Kayana paused, then raised her head and looked blankly at her mother's serious face.
She couldn't understand why her heart ached when she heard her mother's words.
"Why, why?"
When she asked this question, Kayana's eyes were already red, and a few crystal tears fell down her cheeks.
"For the sake of Xinghui City and the Xinghui Legion, you must promise your mother, okay!"
Kayana opened her mouth, but finally said nothing, threw herself into Elsa's arms and cried.
"Ooooh! Mother."
Aisha caressed her purple hair and murmured in her heart: "Hey! Kayana, for the sake of Xinghui City, I can only wrong you..."
