NovelUpdateChapter 73: Sigrid’s way or the highway.
The air in the office becmore unsettling the longer that Lord Vanger hesitated, keeping his head bowed
without responding.
It beceven more tumultuous when Sigrid’s fan made an appearance, her people knew what that meant. A
few wondered if there was a better way of convincing Lord Dane to sign the documents, violence was not always
the right way after all. But, others like Brolin did not mind Sigrid’s way of doing things, it was more efficient and
kept everyone in line.
"Your hand is not moving, | don’t see any signing going on." Sigrid said softly and then her voice lost the softness
and took on a sternness. "Look atLord Vanger, | command you."
A royal command was not one that could be disobeyed, Lord Vanger raised his eyes and met Sigrid’s narrowed
ones that were accompanied by a cold smile that made him shiver.
"What is it that you are dissatisfied with? Is it the money, do you think that | have offered you too little?" she
asked.
Lord Vanger swallowed hard, "It is not the money, you have been more than generous your highness, it would be
shameless ofto say otherwise."
"Then why the coyness?" she asked sharply.
Cosmos slammed a side of his sword on the table and Lord Vanger quivered but surprisingly held his ground.
"With all due respect, your highness, | gave someone else my word and my word is my bond. | am a business
man, | cannot go back on my word after making a deal, not even for you.”
Sigrid stood up and walked over to the Lord Vanger, the closer she moved to him, the more overpowering her
presence became.
"Promises are fickle things, Vanger. Easily made and easily broken. | want your buildings and | intend to have
them one way or another. | am not a bad person, | have chosen to be fair and purchase them generously, why do
you have to be this way and makelook like a villain?" Sigrid tilted her head and smiled cruelly.
She couldn’t blLord Vanger for his stance, it was that stupid halo.
"System, how loyal is he to Emmah?"
Loyalty test: [Emmah]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSubject: Dane Vanger
Percentage: 90%
Probability of a loyalty switch: 50%
The odds are unknown, it could go either way.
The figures made themselves available for her and she sneered when she saw them. A ninety percent loyalty
was very hard to break in such a short period of time, it was not as if she could have sex with him to improve her
odds as she had done with Roland.
"Where is the son?" she asked Cosmos in her mind.
"Stuck in a hospital, apparently the little wuss was in so much pain that he could not make it hin tto
complain to daddy about Emmah." he told her.
Sigrid wanted to groan and break a few things, at the top of her list, the lucky halo which was ruining her plans
just as she was ruining Emmah’s.
She took a calming breath, if money did not work, there was another option. Sigrid used her fan to tilt Lord
Vanger’s head up so that he could look at her which he was trying hard not to do.
"Consider this, Lord Vanger." she said, her tone dripping with a clear threat, "I am the crown princess, loyalty to
queen and crown prince. No commoner is worth offendingfor, | am going to offer you more than just gold. |
am extending my protection and the favor of the crown prince. Refuse me, and you may find yourself on the
wrong side of history."
Lord Vanger’s resolve wavered, the weight of Sigrid’s words pressing down on him and yet he still held firm.
"I appreciate you offer, your highness but my honor and integrity are not for sale. If you can wait one more
day..."
Sigrid spread her fan out, anger flashed in her eyes. "You seem to be under the impression that | chere to
bargain with you. Lord Vanger, | could slice off your thumbs right here and now and stamp these documents with
blood and nobody will do anything to me.
In fact, many people will scramble to hide your body and all the evidence voluntarily. With the snap of my
fingers, | could have your title taken away from you. Imagine that, the great Vanger legacy dead, in your hands
and all for three buildings which you are voluntarily selling off."
A glint of cold fury was on Sigrid’s face as she expressed her anger. 'If you want to test my power then | can give
you a sample right now." She turned her head to Brolin, "Brolin, | have just been assaulted by Lord Vanger and all
of you here are my witnesses.
To quench my anger and wash the shame, | want Lord Vanger’s head and the heads of every member of his
family from the oldest to the youngest."
"As you wish, your highness." The knights responded together uniformly.
Lord Vanger’s eyes widened and he glanced at Sigrid with absolute horror on his face.
"I didn’t... haven’t...." he looked around desperately in a bid for anyone to step up and defend him.

He was desperate for money, why had he rejected the money and chosen death? He thought about his
grandchildren and sobbed, they were so little, why did they have to die.
As the sword was raised, his mind flashed to the face of the woman he had chosen to be loyal to, what benefit
had she brought him except for disaster?
"Loyalty to Emmah has dropped to a negative, it is irrecoverable but there is no loyalty to you either."
Sigrid scoffed, it was okay for him not to be loyal to her, as long as he was not loyal to Emmah either. At the end
of the day, nobody was liked by everyone.
"You know what, | made a mistake, you can let him go and discard my previous orders." she suddenly changed
her mind and waved her hand.
Brolin let go of Lord Vanger’s head and the frightened man fell to the floor, crumbling like an old sock. His heart
was beating faster than it ever had in his life, his face was pale with fright.
