Summon of The Sword novel Chapter 1740

At this moment, Shirley had already run up to Lisha and lifted the veil covering her face.

Looking at the familiar face, Shirley said angrily and amusedly, “It's really you! I just felt you were familiar... Lisha, why did you run out of the mayor’s residence so late at night? Don't you know it's dangerous outside?!”

“I just came to attend an auction with my friend. I didn't expect it to end so late, and I was a little hungry, so I...”

Lisha explained with a bitter smile.

Shirley glanced at Sean, who was beside Lisha, and asked, “Is he your boyfriend? What kind of taste do you have to choose such a man? You’re Uncle Claremento’s daughter, maybe even the future mayoress. How can you be so casual in choosing a partner?”

“You’ve misunderstood. He really is just my friend, not my boyfriend.”

Lisha said helplessly.

As she spoke, Lisha looked worriedly at Sean, afraid that Shirley's words would anger him.

Fortunately, Sean did not get angry. He was now focused on watching Timaeus fighting with the hooligans.

After hearing Lisha's explanation, Shirley said, “I knew it. How could such a coward who looks so ordinary and incapable of even protecting a woman be qualified to be your boyfriend?”

“It's not like that, he...”

Lisha was about to defend Sean, but at that moment, Timaeus's voice came over.

“Shirley, take Lisha and the young man away from here quickly. I still can hold on for a while longer!”

Shirley immediately agreed, “Understood, Grandpa! Hang in there, don't get knocked down!”

Listening to Shirley's conversation with Timaeus, Lisha felt extremely strange.

‘Who talks to their grandfather like that?’

However, Shirley did not care what Lisha thought. She grabbed her hand and said, “Lisha, come with me. We can't stay here any longer.”

“Aren't you going to call your bodyguards?”

Lisha asked.

Shirley immediately shook her head and said, “It's too late to call for bodyguards. It’d take at least ten minutes for them to arrive from our residence. Let's go first! My grandpa can run on his own. He's really capable. Those young guys can't stop him.”
