Miss Witch's Speed ​​Run Manual

Avina closed her eyes and felt Charles's massage, and her anger subsided a lot. "Don't you know how to explain the source of your wealth?"

"That's true."

Ciel nodded. This wasn't completely inexplicable. She could say it was from gambling. Although it might cause some concern, it at least explained the source of the money.

Moreover, half of the source, the Deton Manor, had collapsed, and no one could prove whether her money came from there.

"I've spoken with Miss Silfa. She has the authority to directly hire you as a senior consultant for the Deton Group."

Avina opened her eyes and said, "This way, your identity, wealth, and status will be guaranteed to a certain extent, but the disadvantage is that you will be affiliated with the Deton Group... What do you think?"

“Does this position require any work?”

Ciel inquired.

She no longer minds having contact with extraordinary people. As long as it can make her safer, she will not refuse.

Senior Consultant of Deton Group... This sounds like a good job, and it would provide a reasonable source to spend money on myself or do other things.

"No, it's just a nominal position. Miss Sylva said that you've already done everything a consultant should do. Now you need to consider how much you want in your year-end bonus."

After Avina finished speaking, she muttered, "I just can't think of such a profitable idea..."

Ever since she came in, Avina's little emotions have never stopped. If other people saw this scene, it would probably be impossible for them to connect the current Avina with the usual Avina.

Empty position? And still get paid?

Commissioner Lucy did a great job.

If Lucy could share a little of her way of dealing with people with Adele, Adele would probably be much more normal.

"Let's go, get ready to go."

Avina seemed unwilling to continue talking about what she was going to talk about with Sister Charles later, so she stood up and took Charles' hand.

"So early? Going to the restaurant?"

Charles looked at the sky outside. It was not yet 4:30 in the afternoon.

"Room."

As they walked, Avina said, "I need to take a shower. Please help me choose an outfit that your sister might like... This is our first official meeting, so we can't be late."

Looking at the hurried Avina, Charles was a little confused.

I went to see my sister, but she was even more concerned and nervous than me...

Charles didn't know which dress to choose, so he just picked one for Avina according to his own aesthetic taste. After Avina changed, she put on some makeup and then took Charles into the carriage.

The carriage drove away from Manor No. 15 and headed towards the gem district which was gradually becoming lively. At this time, the sky was gradually getting dark.

177

Chapter 177 Please give your sister to me!

As the sky grew darker, a masked figure hesitated in front of a high-end restaurant, seemingly hesitating for a long time before entering.

This is a high-end restaurant opened by a Pharos noble. The walls of the restaurant are covered with dark wood paneling, and crystal chandeliers and gas lamps illuminate the ceiling decorated with gilded lines and intricate carvings, creating a soft and exquisite atmosphere.

Linen tablecloths, fine china, silver cutlery and crystal glasses gleamed in the light, and elegant guests sat at the dining table, chatting in low voices to the soft music of the pianist.

In contrast, the woman outside the door, who was dressed simply and wearing a mask, seemed a little out of place.

At this moment, a waitress seemed to notice the figure outside the door. She walked over to the door on the thick carpet, opened it directly, and asked outside: "Miss, do you have an appointment?"

"Ah... yes... yes."

The masked woman nodded stiffly and said, "The private room that Miss Russell reserved..."

She kept in mind what the store manager said to avoid making mistakes.

"Ah, sorry, we were inconsiderate... Please come in."

The waitress opened the door completely, lowered her head slightly, and made an inviting gesture, "Please follow me."

Lizzie followed the waiter nervously all the way to the second floor of the restaurant. Only after she entered a separate room and sat down did she slowly breathe a sigh of relief.

As long as you are not wrong...

"Would you like some refreshments or drinks before your friends arrive?"

The waitress bowed slightly and spoke attentively.

"Ah, no need..."

"Do you need to prepare newspapers, magazines, or arrange for musicians to play some music?"

"No, thank you..."

"Is the room at the right temperature? I could add some more firewood or adjust the curtains..."

"..."

As if noticing the woman's reservedness, the waitress simply smiled and brought a cup of hot tea before saying, "I'm right at the door. If you need anything, just ring the bell."

Only after the waitress left did Lizzie finally breathe a sigh of relief.

This was her first time in such a high-end restaurant... She was nervous in every sense of the word.

If the store manager hadn't told her that this was the place her sister had booked, Lizzie wouldn't have dared to come in.

After just a short wait, there was a knock on the door.

Tuk-tuk-tuk——

The wooden door of the private room was opened, and a beautiful black-haired girl walked in. She turned around and whispered something to the waiter behind her, then closed the door and walked straight to sit opposite Lizzie.

"Sorry... I'm a little late. Hello, my name is Avina Russell. You can just call me Avina."

Avina's body was also a little stiff. She started to introduce herself, but accidentally bit her tongue.

Avina, who had never been nervous in social situations, now seemed to be no less nervous than Lizzie sitting opposite her.

"Hello... My name is Lizzie..."

Lizzie kept her head down the whole time, hardly daring to look the other person in the eye.

Where did my sister go... This is the only question in Liqi's mind now.

"Ciel went to the bathroom and will be here soon."

Avina spoke as if she knew what Lizzie was thinking.

"Um……"

After Lizzie responded, the private room that looked like a presidential suite fell into silence, especially Avina, who felt unprecedented pressure at this moment.

Jingle Bell--

Avina gently rang the bell at hand, and the wooden door opened. The waiter walked to Avina's side and asked, "Excuse me, what can I do for you?"

"Excuse me, the room temperature is a bit high."

"Okay, I'll help you adjust it."

After the waiter closed the chimney damper of the fireplace a little and covered part of the charcoal fire with ashes, he left. However, the burning sensation on Avina's cheeks seemed to be lingering for a while.

Avina racked her brains to find a topic, but she really didn't know much about Charles' sister.

The current tense atmosphere was definitely not what she wanted, and she had to do something to ease it.

Tuk-tuk-tuk——

Finally, there was another knock on the door, and both of them looked towards the door almost at the same time.

"Huh... It's so confusing here, eh? Why is the room a bit cold?"

After Charles came in and closed the door, he was stunned for a moment when he saw the two people looking at him with eyes that seemed to be asking for help.

Yes, my sister and Avina are not familiar with each other. Seeing Avina's nervous look, I don't know why she insisted on arranging this meeting.

"Long time no see, sister~"

Charles walked quickly forward and hugged his sister who had stood up. Then he let go and sat between the two of them. He raised the teacup in front of him and took a sip.

The least nervous person present was probably Charles. She was still thinking about how to persuade her sister to go to Ansu City with her.

But in the current situation, Charles felt that it would be better for him to liven up the atmosphere first.

"Sorry, sister, I'm a little late because I was struggling with which dress to wear."

Ciel shook his head helplessly and said, "School uniforms are better. I don't have to think about what to wear every day."

Lizzie turned her gaze to Charles, smiled slightly, and praised: "This suit looks great and suits you very well."

And Avina secretly glared at Charles.

Because the person who was struggling with what to wear wasn't Charles at all, it was her.

After being interrupted by Ciel, the tension between the two seemed to ease a little.

After taking a deep breath, Avina calmed down a little, rang the bell, and when the waiter came in, she said, "Serve the food directly."

After the waiter left, the door was soon opened again, and several waiters pushed carts, took out the prepared food and placed it on the table one by one.

The reason why they chose to come to the Faros-style restaurant was because Avina knew that Charles preferred the situation where all the dishes were placed on the table at once, which would allow Charles to enjoy his meal more and there would not be people coming in to disturb him from time to time.

After all the dishes were served, the waiters left the room one by one, the wooden door closed, and only the three of them were left in the suite.

"I used to come here occasionally. The Pharos food here is quite authentic... You should give it a try."

After Avina finished speaking, she picked up a piece of meat from the cold meat platter in front of her and put it in her mouth and started chewing.

Avina didn't care too much about the aristocratic ceremony or image, and just treated this meal as an ordinary family dinner.

Charles had already set his sights on a roasted pigeon. He unceremoniously cut off the pigeon's leg and placed it on his plate, then began to enjoy it.

Lizzie, after a moment's hesitation, took off the mask, revealing her horrific face that was severely burned.

But Avina didn't seem to care. She just pointed to the soup in front of Liqi and said with a smile: "Liki...Sister, you can try their turtle soup. It's an Ansu dish, but to be honest, I don't think many people can get used to it."

This is the only local Anzu dish in the Faros restaurant. The only reason Avina chose this dish is because it contains sherry... A little bit of alcohol makes things easier to negotiate.

elder sister?

Lizzie was startled when she heard Avina addressing her. She brought the turtle soup in front of her and took a sip. Then she looked at Avina in front of her, and then at Charles.

What is the relationship between Xiao Charles and Avina now?

"Xiao Ciel...are you still working for Miss Avina?"

Lizzie looked at Ciel and finally asked.

Just as Charles swallowed the meat in his mouth and was about to say something, Avina spoke first.

"Charle has now become a senior consultant to the Deton Group thanks to her talent. She has provided the group with many revolutionary and groundbreaking suggestions."

Avina smiled and said, "As the referrer, I also gained a lot."

Deton Group?

What company is this?

Li Qi's face showed a hint of confusion, but soon she seemed to remember something and asked nervously, "Casino?"

"The Deton Group also operates amusement parks and circuses. Charles designed a plan to combine the two, which was appreciated by the senior commissioner of the Deton Group."

Avina was not in a hurry and helped Charles finish what he was saying.

"That Excellency highly praised Charles's ideas."

"Oh……"

Lizzie nodded, looked at Ciel with some satisfaction, and smiled, "I knew that little Ciel has always been so smart."

Just as Avina sorted out her words and prepared to tell her about Ansu, Lizzie looked at Avina and asked, "So... you are Ciel's friend now, right?"

Until just now, Lizzie thought that Avina was Charles' employer, but now Charles no longer works for Avina, which makes Lizzie curious about the relationship between the two.

friend……

The topic that was originally going to be mentioned later was brought up in advance, and Avina's newly recovered state was instantly shattered. She took a sip of tea and stood up directly.

The sudden movement of standing up startled Charles and Lizzie. Charles looked at Avina with a blush on her cheeks with some curiosity.

Avina, dressed in a decent dress, walked slowly to Lizzie, bent her knees slightly, and performed a standard etiquette.
