MTL - Whispering Verse-Chapter 1550 Willendale's Hog
The dressing table and mirror will not be taken away by Miss Galina right now, someone will send them directly to Galina Manor later. Now that the matter of the relics has been dealt with, the Witch and Xia De continued to chat about the recent affairs, and about the registration for tomorrow's round-the-city riding competition.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door of the room, and the voice of the maid came from outside the door:
"Miss, Mr. Nesser, the theater manager, has brought the two actors." The witch smiled and looked at Xia De:
"They're here, and they're still wearing costumes. Shade, do you need us to make room for you so you can be alone with them? An hour or two hours? Although I have a lot of power here, I really want to threaten the theater And the troupe, and you can bring them home, but your reputation will be tarnished."
"Please don't be joking, I don't remember making such a request." Xia De shook his head:
"Besides, with you by my side, why should I think about some actress?"
This sentence is very honest, no matter how beautiful the actresses in the theater are, they cannot compare with the appearance of the Great Witch. Sure enough, a smile appeared on Miss Galina's face:
"Then just meet up, take a photo and say a few words. Then, we'll go home." Those golden eyes looked at Xia De:
"I've been looking forward to tonight for a long time."
The door was opened, and two ladies in costumes walked in rather disturbedly, seeming to guess that Shade Hamilton was trying to do something indecent. The actresses knew that Miss Galina was here, so they bowed first after entering the door.
After getting an answer that didn't have to be so formal, they exchanged greetings with Xia De uneasy. And the witch, who was obviously a bit evil, said again:
"All the servants get out, Tifa, you go out too, and then close the door from the outside, Shad and I have a few words with these two ladies here. Also, no matter what voices you hear inside, don't open the door. If we haven't been out for a long time, don't bother. Hamilton of Rajed, would like to... have a deep talk with them."
She said with a smile, and Xia De really saw the shocked expressions on the faces of the actresses and the theater manager Mr. Nesser outside the door. The corner of his mouth twitched a few times, and he stopped and said:
"Don't bother, we just interrupt for a few minutes." Then he looked at the red-haired Duchess:
"Galina, don't make fun of me."
"Really, I thought you liked that."
She held Xia De's hand and said that Xia De was really worried about what would be said about her in the tabloids in the next few days this time.
Shad just wanted to go home now, so after talking to Miss Meryl Jones, who played the knight, and Miss Alita Lawnes, who played the knight's lover, he proposed the idea of taking a group photo.
Xia De had never seen these two ladies before, and they had only heard the rumors of "Duchess Galina's lover", and it was the first time they saw Xia De today. At the beginning of the meeting, I was still a little cautious. Even though Xia De asked not to close the door, I still doubted whether I would be forced to do something in the future, but after seeing Xia De's face, the worry and anxiety gradually disappeared, and even Xia De When they proposed to take pictures, they also showed a considerable degree of happiness.
It is still very easy to borrow a camera in the opera house. Shade invited Miss Galina to take a photo together, but was rejected by the Duchess. So, he could only stand between the two actresses and took the photo. Because he knew how to develop photos himself, and he didn't want to let his photos go out, so he just took the negatives and asked two opera singers to sign his name in his notebook.
This seemed to be a normal fan meeting, and no one suspected that the real purpose was the makeup mirror in the corner.
And just as Xia De was holding his notebook, discussing with the two ladies the opera he hadn’t heard just now, and praising their singing and acting skills, the theater maid hurried over from the other side of the corridor, and the theater manager Nesser whispered softly at the door. Mr. said a few words in the ear.
Although the sound is very soft, for ring warlocks, they can still hear it if they want to.
Xia De raised his eyebrows and looked at Miss Galina who was standing aside. Witches don't like to be in contact with men, but
Normal communication with pretty women is totally fine. The latter naturally also heard the voice outside the door. She thought for a while and nodded to Xia De, so Xia De asked Mr. Nesser:
"Do you have something urgent to attend to?"
The middle-aged man who is a bit fat has more sweat on his face. He hesitated and didn't want to say anything, but remembering that there was still the Duke of his own country in the room, he could only wipe his sweat and say:
"There is someone else who wants to see Miss Jones and Miss Lawnes. It is Earl Lewis of Carson Rik. I will refuse him now, please don't worry."
Earl Lewis was the nobleman who represented the United Kingdom of Carsonrick and came to discuss the time and place of negotiations with Delarion. "It seems that the earl of the southern country can also enjoy the operas of the northern country. Let him come directly, this room is not too small."
Xia De said with a smile, seeing what Miss Galina meant, she wanted to meet the earl in advance. After all, she might be delegated to handle this matter.
The servant left in a hurry, and five or six minutes later, the sound of dense footsteps came from the corridor again. Afterwards, the nobleman in his forties, who was fatter than the theater manager Mr. Nesser but taller than Shad, walked into the dressing room followed by a group of people.
His eyes are green, and his hooked nose and deep sunken eyes make him look extremely cold. This is the kind of guy who seems to know that he is unreasonable. Coupled with his aristocratic status, it is indeed very suitable for this Earl Lewis to be sent to prepare for the pre-negotiation matters.
Among the crowd following him, Xia De saw the same-looking five-ring warlock that he had just seen on the rooftop. Combined with Miss Galina's words just now, it is obvious that they are the twin sons of the Marquis Furren, brothers Eric Furren and Charles Furren.
It's just that they don't look more than twenty-five or twenty-six years old, but Miss Galina said they are already thirty-one years old. Xia De did not expect to see them again in such a short time, but fortunately they did not recognize Xia De.
"Good evening, Duke Galina."
The tall and fat Southern Earl who entered the room walked towards Miss Galina without even looking at Xia De. But he failed to walk over, but was stopped by Xia De:
"Good evening, Earl Lewis." He said with a smile:
"I'm sorry, but you should have heard that Miss Galina doesn't like to meet strange men."
He stretched out his hand to the southern nobleman, who looked down at Xia De's hand, and his own white gloved hand didn't move at all: "Who are you?"
"Shard Hamilton."
Shad said, and the latter frowned, "You're the one..."
His eyes turned to the two actresses in costumes standing aside, still ignoring Xia De's gesture of reaching out to shake hands. So Xia De also withdrew his hand:
"It's a pleasure to meet you at the theater. Would you like to talk to these two ladies? Their singing and acting skills are really outstanding." Earl Lewis glanced at him, and then said to Miss Galina:
"Since Duke Galina is here, I won't bother you much. Duke, see you at the Yodel Palace on Saturday."
After finishing speaking, he ignored Xia De, turned around and left with the servants behind him. On the contrary, Mr. Furren, who was wearing a monocle in his right eye, showed an apologetic expression to Shade, and then hurriedly followed.
"Let's go too."
Xia De said to Miss Galina, the witch nodded, and after Xia De said goodbye to the actresses, she and Xia De left the dressing room and prepared to go home:
"Earl James Lewis, even within Carson Rik, has a pretty bad reputation. Simply put, this man is quite lecherous." The witch introduced them when the carriage drove them into the thick night. Recalling the situation just now:
"He is a distant relative of the royal family of Anjou, whose family controls the salt business in Carson Rico. Since his youth, his reputation in Willendale has been tainted, and people still call him behind his back. Yes, he was so fat when he was young. If he hadn’t met us today, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com I’m afraid that even if those two beautiful girls were not taken away by him, there would be a follow-up trouble."
After she finished speaking, look
When Xia De frowned and didn't answer her words, he asked curiously:
"Why, are you upset that someone offended you? This is also a normal thing. After all, the status of a knight is nothing to a real noble. Although most of the nobles you see on weekdays are humble and polite, but disgusting people There are no nobles here. However, if you can persuade Rezia, Dorothy Louisa, and Luvia Anat to let you marry me..."
Tifa, who was sitting by the side, pursed her lips to keep herself from laughing, while Xia De said, "I noticed that the guy just looked at you very strangely."
The witch froze for a moment, and the smile on her face grew stronger:
"You say this. I'm used to it. Since I became an adult, I have been the most beautiful unmarried noblewoman in Tobesk. Girls like Rezia can't compare to me. It's normal to attract the attention of some flies, so I don't usually like to show my face. It's not the first time I've met James Lewis, I know what kind of guy he is... What are you thinking?"
She smiled and grabbed Shad's hand:
"Oh, my knight, this is the first time I have noticed that you are such a narrow-minded person. Are you angry?"
"Of course, I extended my hand and he didn't shake it, and he still has thoughts about you. Not to mention that this person usually has a bad reputation, and he must have done a lot of bad things. Isn't it normal for me to be angry? ? Maybe you haven't noticed, but I don't have many enemies to worry about, because they're all dead."
