Trapped in the Love of the Landlord

SIR LUCAS KINGSTONE
...
"Try me," I replied firmly. "You forced me to choose. So, please let Regina aunty know, if I have a choice. I have the right to choose as I please, right?"
It was satisfying to retaliate against Avindale's treatment. Anyway me and the girl have a little problem to solve. Win-win solutions.
"Okey, if that was your choice. But please, don't complain if something unwanted happens later" he said.
"The worst possibility is that he will suffer, not me" I replied slowly and decisively.
"OKAY. Let's do the business then" said Avindale as he walked away. He put a glass on one of the tables, then approached the girl I meant. What her name was, Rachel, or .. I don't know.
"Girls! Attention please!" avindale shouted while clapping both palms. Very not elegant. He should have produced a sound using a glass and hit it with a spoon to attract attention.
All the attention of the girls, now focused on Avindale, including Rachel.
"Okay, thanks ladies. For our visit this time, in addition to entertaining with lunch, Sir Lucas also offers a free vacation in Manor. As you know, summer will be very fun if it is filled with various activities. There are many good places here to create beautiful paintings. So, for anyone lucky will get the honor of staying here during the summer, if you will."
Huh huh? I never offered anything!
The applause and the low boisterous voice sounded like a cheer of sorrow to me. How could Avindale have thrown me into such a situation. This can't be allowed!
I rushed over to the eccentric man who became a cousin because my aunt married her father.
"Excuse me Ladies." With one hand I grabbed his shirt collar on the back. He dragged her away from the crowd of girls.
"Avindale!" my growl. I took off the grip as soon as we were a little far away.
"okay-okay, Lucas. Listen to me." His face showed no guilt at all. "You want me to appraise the painting, don't you?"
"Yes, of course. That's your job!"
"OK, so I won't charge you a fee. But, it was replaced by giving the girl a vacation facility here. Fair enough, right? I know if you're stingy" she sneered.
Kupelototti him.
I snort. "Tell me what else to do about Regina. Until when can I escape his clutches! He always haunts me!" angry annoyed.
"Calm down, Bro. He just wants you to have a descendant. He doesn't want Kingstone's blood to stop at you. Well, even though she's already my father's wife, it seems like the honor the Queen has given your family has become her obsession. He wants an heir. And you know she won't stop until she gets her wish." Avindale gave a resigned look at me.
Well, my aunt was indeed an ambitious and very manipulative woman. He always had a way of getting all his wishes. A dangerous woman.
"OK, fine. Do what you need to do! But, just one girl. Remember that!"
"yeah. That black hair, right?"
"You don't know his name?"
"I only know his last name Watson. My brain is too precious to remember names of people that are not important to me" he replied in a dismissive tone.
A watson? Isn't he the blonde's cousin?" many reassuring.
"I don't care about their family tree either" he replied, which sucks.
"So you mean you don't care who my wife is?"
"That is your problem to handle, Man. Not mine."
"Well, you only care about financial supply" I said.
'Yeah, you know me very well!" Avindale patted my back.
"OKAY. Fine. Get me out of Regina's trouble, then you'll get a few hundred dollars in your account."
"Yes, Sir!" After saluting the soldiers, he returned to the restless crowd of girls.
I also turned around to leave this place. My head is heavy
