Sure enough, in the guest hall, tea and wine had been prepared, and many servants were serving. Erik was sitting there, looking up at the visitors. He didn't rise to greet them, but instead nonchalantly apologized, "My leg is inconvenient, I apologize for the rudeness."

"It's fine," Banon replied with a fake smile, nodding.

Erik was always so unruly. Even before his leg was injured, he didn't show much respect, and now he didn't even bother to pretend,

Thinking of how many times he had been disrespected over the years, Banon twisted his face slightly.

He thought, 'Only losing one leg is still too kind to this guy, When I become Emperor in the future, I would make sure Erik has nothing, and then I would trample him down and humiliate him'

Banon took a deep breath, temporarily suppressing his darker thoughts, hiding them deep within his heart. He chose a seat facing Erik and smiled, "You must have seen the invitation, so you already know the purpose of my visit today"

“Brisa, Paola, and Kaila.” He raised his hand and lightly clapped twice, prompting three maids to step forward.

They approached their master without hesitation, dropping to their knees gracefully, lowering their gazes in submission, like completely tamed slaves.

Banon lifted the chin of Mila, the maid closest to him, exposing her face to Erik. He slowly stroked her face, his tone laden with meaning. "The slave girls bestowed upon me by Aurelius seem to have some connections to your wife...”

The slave at his feet, at his mercy, was Nyx's sister.

His attitude was so contemptuous, not only insulting Nyx but also humiliating the Duke's Mansion.

Erik's expression darkened immediately, and a fierce, wolf-like aggression appeared in his eyes.

He didn't care if he was insulted, but he couldn't tolerate anyone speaking about Nyx in such a disgusting manner.

Banon's eyes squinted with amusement, and he looked around. "Why isn't the madam here? Isn't she home?"

As he examined Erik's darkened face, he sighed dramatically, "I specifically brought Brisa, Paola, and Kaila to reunite with the madam... what a pity if she's not here."

With distinguished guests visiting, it was expected that Nyx, as the legitimate wife, would accompany her husband to receive them. Especially when the visitors were not only the prince but also her stepmother and sister, who had been reduced to slaves.

Banon believed that no one could resist the urge to see their enemy's downfall. Yet, Nyx was nowhere to be found.

Banon couldn't help but smirk. It seemed the rumors circulating outside were mostly true-Erik, this short-tempered, reckless brute, had indeed laid a hand on his wife.

No wonder Banon felt so unrestrained. The marriage had been a high climb for the woman, and now the family was in ruins. With no maternal family to rely on, Nyx was vulnerable to abuse.

But, when cornered, a rabbit would bite. A woman pushed to the brink could still make for a valuable piece in the game.

No matter how much Nyx had fallen out of favor, she still held the title of wife and the position of being at the bedside. As long as she was used wisely, she could be extremely useful.

The more Banon thought about it, the more pleased he became. He lightly tapped Mila's beautiful face and ordered, "Go
