2 Chapter 2 Being Chosen

  The young man with golden hair wore a white robe and looked very weak.

  He was reading a book in his hand. Hearing the footsteps, he looked up.

  Her dark blue eyes reflected his fair skin, looking particularly noble.

  Gary Lawrence lowered his eyes after a glance.

  One day, he would have such gorgeous clothes and noble status.

  The butler bowed respectfully to the golden haired young man and then introduced.

  This is Sir Bentley Claude! The selected man was to accompany Sir Bentley! "

  "Register now!"

  Ten male servants walked out from the butler's side. There was a table on the lawn, on which there was a book.

  A man stood beside them, with a goose feather pen in his hand, and registered everyone's name.

  "All right, now the one who was called stands out."

  "De villa Cartier, 25 years old."

  A tall young man with brown hair stood out.

  "Walked to the table, picked up a book, pick a random paragraph and read it."

  De villa Cartier walked to the table gracefully, picked up the book, turned a few pages, found a paragraph, and started to read it, stuttering.

  "All right, pass!"

  In fact, the butler didn't have high requirements for a servant to master the skill of recognizing words. He just didn't want to lower the level of the Claude's.

  "Gary Lawrence, 18 years old."

  Gary Lawrence stood out and walked to the table without the butler's words. He picked up a book and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the title of the book "Annals of History".

  Not long after he came to this world, Uncle Roken fell off the stable, so he didn't have much time to read books in the bookstore.

  But the book "Annals of History" happened to be one of the novels he had read in the bookstore.

  Gary Lawrence, a 16-year-old boy in the 21th Century, accidentally stepped on a sewer, and fell from the sky in this world.

  He smashed Gary Lawrence, who looked exactly like him and had the same name, to live in this world for him.

  After coming to this world, Gary Lawrence found that his mind had become particularly clear and he had the ability to remember everything.

  Except for his first day in the world when he didn't say a word.

  On the second day, he went to the bookstore to learn the language of this world and some basic words.

  A few days later, there was no problem with daily communication, and he had finished reading this book.

  In a trance, Gary Lawrence recalled how he had just come to this world. Looking at the book in his hand, he felt a sense of familiarity.

  He opened the book, chose a passage and read it with mixed feelings.

  Gary Lawrence's words were not much different from those of ordinary people before!

  Bentley Claude raised his head and looked at Gary Lawrence. Obviously, he was interested in him.

  There were 28 people in total, 12 of whom were eliminated, and the remaining 16 entered the second round of interview.

  The second round was naturally to show his specialties.

  There were many people who chose flower arrangement.

  Because in their eyes, all they needed to do was to put the flowers into the bottle.

  However, except for two people, almost all of them had been eliminated.

  Gary Lawrence chose to sing. He hummed a lullaby, which was light and soothing. The song was popular, and Sir Bentley liked it very much.

  In the end, only 8 people were left among the 16 people.

  Gary Lawrence was one of them.

  "Congratulations on your joining the Claude's."

  The steward looked arrogant, but there was no previous contempt on his face.

  "You can go back and pack up today. You can bring your family members and gather at the gate of the manor before dinner to go through the formalities! "

  "Families can only live in the suburb of the manor. You should know that. "

  "Well, that's it today!"

  Gary Lawrence walked briskly out of the tulip manor with others.

  He was chosen!

  He could earn 10 interests per month!

  Uncle Roken's leg can be cured!

  Gary Lawrence strode towards the slum, his face full of joy.

  "WOW! Little Gary, you seem to have a good harvest today!"

  Paul Belitez suddenly rushed out of the alley and stopped Gary Lawrence.

  Gary Lawrence's stomach twitched at his yellow teeth and smelly breath.

  If he had known it earlier, he would have bought a piece of black bread to fill his stomach.

  Gary Lawrence pushed away Paul Belitez's hand and was about to walk inside.

  "Little Gary! You are different today! "

  Paul Belitez stood in front of him again, pulled out a small knife with a cold light and slapped it on his face.

  Gary Lawrence remained unmoved.

  Paul Belitez squinted.

  If it was in the past, Gary would have begged him pitifully and offered him money and food.

  But today...

  There was a flicker of confusion in Paul Belitez's eyes

  Gary Lawrence suddenly burst into laughter.

  Finally, he didn't have to pretend to be a grandson! "

  Paul Belitez was stunned.

  When he was lost in thought, Gary Lawrence took the knife from his hand, folded it and put it back into his hand.

  "Dear Paul, I have been applied for a male servant of the Claude's. I'm here to take my uncle to the manor. Could you please step aside? " 

  Paul Belitez opened his eyes wide and swallowed what he wanted to say.

Did this guy apply for a male servant of the Claude's? Is he the nobleman who just came to the city?

  Really?

  "Impossible! How could you get a job...?"

  Gary Lawrence stopped and turned to look at Paul Belitez with a smile.

  "Don't believe me? You can go with me. "

  He walked briskly, ignoring the dull man behind him.

  In this world, nobility was the power that was above everything.

  Being a servant of a noble family was a symbol of status.

  Not to mention that Gary Lawrence had been allowed to join the Claude's, even if he was only a temporary servant, Paul Belitez didn't dare to make a move.

  Because once the Claude's got angry, the whole slum here might become slaves and live a life worse than death.

  Compared with the disbelief of Paul Belitez, Gary Lawrence felt that he had seized the first opportunity to change his fate.

  A chance to live a good life.

  It seemed that there was a big hand pushing his fate towards an unpredictable direction.

  Gary Lawrence spent two pieces of black bread in a small shop across the alley. While eating, he went into the dirty alley.
