Heather who counterattacked

Chapter 44 The Guide

Among the great nobles in Europe, the one with the least exposure is always Alma's Duke of Silvermoon.

Ranked among the elders, he is so young that he is ridiculously young. He needs money, power, wealth and background, and he needs to search all the courts of Europa, and it is difficult to find another face that is more beautiful than his. How can people willingly ignore him? The presence?He is considered old among young people. His calmness and grandeur beyond his age make him out of place even among his peers. The old aristocrats in the industry are not as low-key as he is!

The old-fashioned court has been wiped out with the flames of democracy and freedom. However, how can the power that has traversed this continent for thousands of years be willing to disappear?Their branches are still deeply rooted in this land to draw nourishment, while the vines wear a modern cloak and extend to all aspects of politics, economy and culture, closely controlling the law and the media.Therefore, the nobles still have privileges, and there is always a clear gulf between what is displayed on people and what is hidden behind.

The current Duke of Silver Moon in the outside rumors is just such a superficial symbol. At best, more people know that there is a person like him, and if they go deeper, they know that he has a weird temper and is extremely difficult to get along with. Got it.Isn't this the result of deliberately controlling public opinion and exposure?Those who are close to him are naturally distressed by his youth and maturity, but after seeing him for so many years, seeing that he is still as unchanged as a rock, there is nothing they can do about it.

That year Wendy took the arm of her first husband Norton MP to attend the royal family's winter dinner.Although she comes from the countryside in the south of France, she is born with a charming face. The romantic and elegant style of the French is fused into her bones, but it does not damage her eternal vigor and beauty like a girl. I have seen it a lot, and my vision is natural. Taller.Along the way, no matter how blatantly she looked with envy or admiration, she would not show the slightest hint of disrespect.

Then she saw the young duke standing beside England's proud eldest princess in the large hall, which was brightly lit at night.

The 17-year-old boy is as indifferent as a scale left when light and shadow are scattered, like a shadow that the wind forgot to take away.Wearing an exquisitely tailored tuxedo, with her soft black hair neatly tied behind her head, she remained indifferent even though the eldest princess frowned coldly—although he still compromised and extended his hand to invite her as she wished, and the eldest princess Veronica was like a douchebag. Sheng raised his chin as high as a rooster, proudly took the hand of Duke Silvermoon, and stepped off the dance floor.

Women always have a sensitive string that will be touched when it comes to beauty beyond imagination.

She couldn't describe the shock of that moment in words.I can't understand the transformation of myself since that glance.Mrs. Wendy back then had long since shed her youthfulness and married into a married woman, but the sudden heartbeat that turned the whole world upside down, left the most vivid shadow in the time when she had lost her warmth and color.

With just one glance, that figure became the salvation of this life.Or, a nightmare.

But that is the god she can only look up to and cannot touch.

So whether it was many years ago or many years later, Wendy never regretted being ridiculed for being infatuated with him.

"... See you soon, ma'am." Cyril could only reply like this.

Mrs. Wendy's infatuation with him was once the biggest joke in high society.Not only the age gap, but also the status gap—but later, perhaps because she only chose to look up from afar without trying to take a step closer, or maybe the other end of the story is the indifferent and strict Duke of Silvermoon who is almost cruel, which made the story take on an extremely A bland ending draws a full stop.

Wendy married to Spain after the divorce, and Cyril still acted as a living stone statue in the White Castle. The unexpected beginning and the reasonable ending, there is no sexy process, and there is no inextricable entanglement attached, everything is just as it is. Quit the flags and drums.Even others have never commented or criticized this.

The only negative effect left by Mrs. Wendy after this incident is probably the Princess of England's dislike for her.Although Cyril always felt that if Wendy had never been infatuated with him, she and Veronica might have become rare best friends.

Mrs. Wendy set up afternoon tea in the garden, and even got up to pour tea for him herself.

The mature style and immature youth are so contradictory yet so harmoniously integrated in her body, every frown and smile has a fascinating charm.The more time passes through, the more moving she is like an immortal piece of music.

"You want me to be that young lady's guide?" Mrs. Wendy was a little surprised, her azure pupils were so clear she looked at him without blinking, "That adopted daughter of yours?"

Of course, the lady in front of me is also the kind of person who is extremely intelligent.To be able to deal with three high-ranking and powerful men and still retreat unscathed is not justified by not being smart.Cyril just mentioned a few words, and she came to a definite conclusion by herself.But Cyril paused a little for one of her words.

It turns out that in the eyes of others, can his relationship with Aurora be taken for granted as foster father and daughter?It also seems to be extenuating?

"Yes. I came here just to ask you..."

"No, don't ask me, and don't use honorifics, you know I will never refuse you." Mrs. Wendy said hurriedly, her eyes showed the shyness of being rude because of interrupting him, the more this kind of Every moment, the girlish beauty on her body became more and more eye-catching.

Cyril stared at her quietly for a moment, then nodded like an old friend: "Then, thank you."

So she just laughed happily.The deep love hidden in the bottom of the eyes is difficult to hide completely, and it is slowly revealed.

Before dusk, Cyril got up to say goodbye.

Mrs. Wendy felt a little regretful, but she didn't ask him to stay for dinner.

Having experienced different men, she has the maturity and consideration of her elders. It is precisely because she clearly recognizes the gap between each other that she will not think that this time is her own opportunity.If you have looked at each other, you will naturally understand the most appropriate distance.The goodbye after ten years is already an unexpected surprise. She is very content and will not expect things that will never belong to her.

Cyril didn't set off for Spain right away. Since she came to France, it was always necessary to go back to Leoch for a night.Only when he was alone thinking about those past events a long time ago, did he feel a little bit of regret.

Perhaps, he shouldn't have come to find Mrs. Wendy—on the premise that he knew what she was thinking about him?The closer he was to such a fiery emotion, the more he felt that his heart that could not make waves was so cold and rigid; the more he understood that others' unrequited love was so pure, the more he felt that he could not accept others' self as a difficult person. endured existence.

No one knew better than Cyril himself that even if he finally ascended to the throne of victor, he was destined to remain alone forever.The only love that could bring him salvation died in Isaac many years ago, and he has completely lost the ability to love another person many years later.

The more I thought about it, the more tired I was, so I simply put aside the tangled things temporarily and fell asleep peacefully.Waking up in the middle of the night.

Cyril struggled to get up from the quilt, squinting her eyes to adapt to the sudden light: "Who?"

"His Royal Highness." Naiden, who was also woken up and hurried over, so that his clothes were not neat and meticulous, replied.

As soon as the voice entered his ears, Xi Ruier simply closed his eyes and lay back.The quilt was pulled up easily.

The butler stared blankly at the videophone. The lady who was also in pajamas was obviously just out of bed. She politely apologized, regardless of the annoyance on the other end, and cut off the connection signal without hesitation - exactly the same decisive posture as his master.

The second call came over breakfast.

Cyril was dressed in formal attire, holding a coffee cup, and squinting at the woman in the video.

The eldest princess... No, now it should be the Crown Princess of Belgium. At the moment, she tidied herself up, staring at the screen with a grim face, before she could say anything, she was so frantic that she wanted to jump up several times. At this time There will always be a hand stretched out from the side, patting her shoulder comfortingly.

"Hee! Rae! Er—you're driving me crazy!"

It's rare for a proud princess to look so restless, which makes Xi Ruier a little puzzled: "What happened?"

"How dare you say it! Why are you looking for that woman?!" Veranika stared at him viciously, without any elegance or demeanor left, with an expression that was about to flip the table if she disagreed with her, "The baby you gave me Am I not qualified to find a guide? Am I not qualified! To find her!!”

Cyril looked away silently.It is not a secret among these people that he stayed in Isaac these few years, but is he nice to Aurora?How could someone use the word "baby"?No, the point is not here...

"You are too qualified, Vera. I promised his father to provide her with the necessary protection and care, but that's all - how can she let you be her guide?"

This is absolutely true.The biggest reason for Cyril to stay by Aurora's side is just the trend of fate, and the second is because of Klauris, his affection for Aurora is not enough to let her enter his world.If it was really the adopted daughter he recognized, then he would never let Aurora be in such a dangerous situation, and let alone Veronica as the guide, he would go directly to Her Majesty the Queen and hold an event for her in the royal court. Bar mitzvah is out of the question.

But now, he was hiding in the dark, so of course he wouldn't let a noble and sensitive person like Veronica appear on the scene to muddy the water.

Her Royal Highness the Crown Prince seemed to understand something, but she still insisted: "That can't be her!"

"Wendy is the best choice." Cyril sighed a little, this one-sided hatred is really terrible, "She has stayed in Spain, is familiar with the situation of the upper class, and still has a lot of contacts that can be used. And her The experience ... makes that knowledge and experience very valuable to learn. She is the best person I can think of."

Facing the still frowning face, Xi Ruier suddenly said: "What's the meaning of the phone call in the middle of the night?"

Veranika's eyelashes fluttered, and then her eyes wandered away: "Well...the news I got in the evening was distracted by Conrad, and I didn't remember it until I was half asleep, so..."

So I didn't even think about the time, place and occasion!

She glanced at the screen secretly, with a confident face despite her guilt.Cyril was silent for a long while: "Vera, are you living back?" Why is this one so childish?

Before she could get angry, the screen moved and moved to another face.In the video, the crown prince smiled, his eyes bright as stars: "I'm sorry Cyril, please be more careful, pregnant women always have all kinds of irritability."

Xi Ruier was stunned, but before he could react, he had a conditioned reflex: "Congratulations." They actually have a child?Sure enough, something big happened, otherwise these two willing to fight and suffer would not be reversed.

"Thank you!" Conrad finally laughed.

Then there was a violent shock on the screen, and when the light was clear, Conrad's face was gone, Veronica was holding the screen with blue veins on her forehead, and when she calmed down, the convincing wisdom and deterrence were fully revealed: "Hope Riel, you have to tell me why you stayed in that poor place in Spain for four years."

Cyril didn't ask why she knew the reason for his movements so clearly, just like she was so tacit that she didn't tell him why she paid so much attention to his movements.But now this question is really difficult to answer.

In the end all he could say was, "I have reasons why I must."

Answering is the same as not answering!

The two pairs of eyes stared at each other for a long time. They both knew that the other would not compromise, but it was Cyril who was used to it: "I will let you know, but not now. Wendy didn't mess with you, but you can continue to watch She's not pleasing to the eye, as long as it doesn't disturb my layout... Take care of the baby, Conrad is really good."

England's proud eldest princess raised her eyebrows and glared at him, with an expression of talking nonsense, knowing that he could no longer pry his mouth open, and hung up the connection without hesitation.
