Chapter 941

"That's right, for the sake of our love, you gave up half of the family property that Mr. Kaufman promised to give you after marriage. This is indeed a huge sacrifice, and I am deeply moved. Dear Josephine, I only have Repay your sacrifice with love, and swear to be loyal to you only for the rest of your life."

The man named Billy looked into the carriage with tenderness and sweetness in his eyes.

Qiao An eavesdropped on the conversation of the elopement couple through the blood mosquito, and the more he listened, the more disturbed he became.

From the information revealed by Billy's mistress, especially when Billy also called her "dear Josephine", Joann couldn't help but think of the Countess Josephine Antoinette de Poisson. Apart from her, there was no other woman whose identity exactly matched Billy's mistress.

However, Mrs. Josephine had already accepted Mr. David Kaufman's marriage proposal, and the wedding was scheduled for the day after tomorrow. How could she elope with another man overnight when she was about to get married?

If it is said that she really loves this boy named Billy, and she is willing to give up marrying a millionaire for the sake of love, it is not that Joan can't respect her feelings, but she can't agree with her taste in choosing men, and she can't understand her way of leaving without saying goodbye .

Whether Professor Moriarty or David Kaufman, which of the men Mrs. Josephine had loved was not much better than a pompous playboy like Billy?

Why did she choose such a No. 1 person and not hesitate to elope with him?

During this period of time, Joan had a lot of contact with Mrs. Josephine, and she knew that she was thoughtful and organized, and she was definitely not the kind of woman who acted impulsively when her mind was hot.

Running away from marriage and elopement is undoubtedly a big scandal, which will make her a laughing stock in the social arena, and the high society will also close the door to her from now on.

Madame Josephine, occasionally in a self-deprecating tone, referred to herself as a "social butterfly".

However, everyone knows that a "social butterfly" is like an artist, and there are grades.

Given Madam Josephine's status in the social circles of the New World, considering her huge network of contacts and the powerful lobbying power derived from it, she has considerable influence on the political, business and even military circles.

"Courtesy butterfly" is just her self-effacing term. In fact, the title that really fits her identity is "social activist" or "lobbying expert".

Social life is to Mrs. Josephine what "political life" is to a popular political star. Unless she is crazy, she will never do such a crazy act of cutting herself off from the social world.

Could it be that the man named Billy had such an unspeakable magical charm that it drove her crazy and ran away with him at all costs?

Just when Joan was full of confusion, Ted Pinkerton's deep laughter came from his ears.

Joan turned to look at Mr. Detective, and found that he was observing the movement around the carriage through the binoculars, with a sneer on his lips.

"Mr. Pinkerton, what are you laughing at?"

"I'm laughing at an idiot who thinks he's smart. He thinks he's got a beautiful woman in his arms, but he doesn't know that the scythe of death has already hooked his neck."

"You... mean the man named Billy?"

"Billy Donald II, the son of real estate businessman Donald Sr., a well-known rake in Midgard."

After listening to Pinkerton's introduction, Joan couldn't help feeling disappointed, and asked unwillingly:

"Is this person really just a slutty rich man? Doesn't he have any special talents?"

"Ha! Special talent..." Pinkerton sneered, "If cheating and playing with women can be regarded as a skill, our little Mr. Donald can be called an expert."

"I don't understand this, just relying on this piece of material...why snatch his fiancée from Mr. Kaufman?" Joan became inexplicably aggrieved.

"If I'm not wrong, Billy Donald didn't really win Madam Josephine's heart. The so-called elopement is just a bloody scam. As for why our beautiful countess would do this... Hehe, I'm I don’t know, maybe I should ask Elder Gumoduo?”

Qiao An could not help but thump in his heart when he heard the meaning behind Mr. Detective's words!

In fact, before Pinkerton pierced this layer of window paper, he suspected that Mrs. Josephine had lured Billy to the edge of the wetland and asked him to stop here. I'm afraid he had no good intentions, and she probably came to "hunt" with tonight. The boggard people colluded with each other in private, maybe it was the mysterious "behind the scenes".

However, this is only based on rational speculation. Emotionally, he really cannot accept this cruel reality. He cannot accept that Mrs. Josephine, who takes care of him tenderly like his own sister, is actually a bad woman who colludes with boggards to harm his compatriots.

"Mr. Pinkerton, don't rush to conclusions. I don't believe Mrs. Josephine is really that kind of person."

"Your mood, I can understand."

Pinkerton sighed, and patted the young mage's shoulder lightly.

"The most valuable things in the world are 'truth', 'goodness', and 'beauty'. People always unconsciously equate beautiful things with 'truth' and 'goodness'. Unfortunately, reality is always destroyed in cruel ways. People’s wishful thinking, under the beautiful skin, there may not be a sincere and kind soul.”

Joan made no sound.

Indeed, as Mr. Detective said, a beautiful woman may not be sincere and kind, but may also be a femme fatale full of lies.

However, the bits and pieces of memories of the past, those warm fragments are still vivid in his memory, making him unwilling to believe Pinkerton's judgment.

At this moment, the woman finally got out of the carriage and was completely exposed to Joan's vision.

When his eyes touched her face, Joan's heart immediately turned cold.

How else can I excuse it?

If the woman was not Madame Josephine, it could only be Dole—the latter possibility being of course even more absurd.

Barely suppressing the sense of loss in her heart, Joan watched Mrs. Josephine who was kissing Billy Donald intimately through the eyes of the blood mosquito, trying to find some doubts from her and defend her original good impression of her .

In the end, he really found it!

Joan keenly noticed that there was something wrong with the ring on Mrs. Josephine's hand!

In his impression, Mrs. Josephine only had one ring on her hand, which was the engagement ring presented by Mr. Kaufman.

Those were the "Pairing Rings of Confidence" made by Joan himself, the only pair in the world, and they were worn on the hands of Mr. Kaufman and Mrs. Josephine respectively. He would never admit it wrong.

However, at this moment, Mrs. Josephine did not wear her engagement ring. Instead, she wore a gold ring on the ring finger of both hands.

The two golden rings both exuded a faint magical aura. The distance was too far, and the sky was dark. Joan could not discern what spells were attached to the two rings for the time being.
