Chapter 433 Buried Thoughts
…
"Please use it slowly." The maid placed the wine on the square table and looked at the three of them strangely. "If you need more wine, just pull the rope by the door."
"I understand, go and do your work." Otto waved his hand, and the latter bowed and turned to leave. As the door closed, the noise in the lobby was blocked out, and the room suddenly became quiet.
Until now, he still felt his heart pounding and looked at Andrea without blinking, for fear that she would suddenly disappear, "I thought it was a dream, Belinda and Auro both thought you were dead." , I didn’t expect to see you again one day…”
After she couldn't help shouting in the market, the other party also turned her attention to him - being able to react to this name proved that she didn't just happen to look similar.
No, it should be said that they cannot be two people. Andrea's voice and appearance are so outstanding, and every move has a unique temperament. It is difficult for other women to compare with her.
But the other party's reaction was not as surprising as she expected. Instead, she frowned, walked to her side, told her to follow her in a commanding tone, and then hurried out of the market.
Probably she didn't want to attract too many people to watch. Yes, nobles shouldn't yell in places where civilians gather. It was too rude of her.
Following the two of them into a single room in a tavern, he had the opportunity to look at each other carefully again. Five years later, she still looked the same in his memory. If this was a dream, he hoped to last longer. a little.
"Is this your old lover?" the black-haired woman whistled.
"Since you insist on following me, you should know the value of silence at this time," Andrea glared at her, "No one will think you are mute if you don't speak."
"I'm here to protect you," the other party grinned. "Besides, it's too unbecoming of an aristocrat to force me to buy Tilly's birthday gift at first, and now you want to drive me away."
"The aristocratic style depends on the person," Andrea snorted, "It's not necessary for you at all."
"This is..." Otto couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he saw no response to his words, so he could only look at the black-haired woman with the same outstanding appearance, "Your friend?"
"Ashes," Andrea said bluntly before she could speak, "Who are you and why do you know her?"
"I am Otto Losey, from the Kingdom of Dawn," he was slightly surprised when he heard the other party ask - the woman who called herself Ashes was too straightforward and sharp, and did not seem to be a well-educated noble. Why would Delia stay with someone like this? "I have known Andrea since I was a child, as well as my sister Belinda, Oro of the Tokat family, and His Highness Anpein, the eldest son of the Lord of the Dawn. We are friends who talk about everything."
"Sounds like a story told by a group of powerful people," Ashes shrugged, "Did you just say she was dead?"
"that is because--"
"That's enough," Andrea interrupted, "Belinda and Auro were right, the eldest daughter of the Quinn family you are familiar with is dead."
"But you are obviously still here," Otto shook his head repeatedly, "What happened at that time?"
In addition to the royal family, the most prominent nobles in Glow City, the capital of the morning, are the Tokat, Quinn and Losi families. Their heads are all extremely trusted partners of the king and ministers with real power. This tradition has been continued since Chenxi established the capital, and it is still the case in their generation.
Among them, Andrea is the eldest daughter of the Quinn family. She is impeccable in both appearance and family background. She has countless suitors, including herself and Auro.
But no one expected that during a spring outing, Andrea's carriage suddenly lost control and crashed into the mountains. This accident even alarmed the king. The three joint royal families searched for a long time before finding her mangled body at the foot of the mountain.
After learning about this result, Otto felt sad for a long time. Compared with Oro, who had already launched his pursuit, he had not had time to tell the other party his feelings. I thought I would never have this opportunity again, but I didn't expect that I would meet her again in this foreign land.
After a while, Andrea sighed softly, "That was not an accident."
"What?"
"The carriage that lost control and fell from the mountain five years ago was all planned by the family," she said in a low tone. "Father discovered my identity as a witch."
Otto was stunned for a moment, "Witch?"
"It seems like you're pretty good at hiding it," Hui Jin covered his mouth and said, "You can even hide it from your friends since childhood."
Andrea ignored her, "Yes, after my father knew about this, he immediately arranged the accident - the person in the car was not me at all, and the driver and the maid died as well. Then I was sent out by him Kingdom of Dawn, and finally lived in seclusion in the Cliff City of Graycastle." She paused, "In fact, he never asked my opinion on this matter from beginning to end, nor did he care about my thoughts. All he did was Get rid of me as quickly as possible."
It turns out that this is what happened... Otto fell silent, and the beloved "Flower of Glow" turned into a witch. If this news spread, it would probably cause serious harm to the Quinn family. blow. However, the method of faking the accident was also to protect Andrea's safety - as a well-informed upper-class noble, he had heard more than once about the miserable treatment that witches who fell into the hands of the church would suffer.
After hesitating for a moment, he expressed his thoughts, but was interrupted by Andrea's sneer.
"Protection? As long as my father doesn't hand me over, what can the church do? Bring the Judgment Army into the inner city to arrest me?" Her voice rose a bit, "He is the Prime Minister of the Lord of the Morning. , and at the same time controlled the outer city patrol, but in the end did nothing. Miss Nana's father was originally just a baron, but he rushed into the lord's castle for his daughter and argued with His Highness Roland in person, but he would only drive me away Leaving home, is this also protection?"
Otto was speechless for a moment. After a long silence, he hesitantly asked, "You...will you go back?"
"There will never be such a day," Andrea stood up, "I said that the eldest daughter of the Quinn family died five years ago. This is what father wants to see."
"Auro goes to your grave every year to lay flowers. He still can't forget you."
She walked to the door and whispered, "That's just his wishful thinking. He will forget it one day."
Watching the two disappear outside the house, Otto lay weakly on the bench.
He somewhat hated his own cowardice.
At this moment it was still Auro who moved out instead of speaking his mind.
I can't forget you either.
He closed his eyes.
