Chapter 225 Shadow and Light
Seeing Isabella accept it so quickly, Irina was a little surprised, so she added:
"You can see all the details!"
Isabella turned her head and smiled at Irina, then turned around so that she and Eros were face to face.
"Is that so?"
After a while, Isabella looked at Irina with a faint smile on her pretty face and asked with a slight tremor in her voice.
Irina opened her mouth to look at the scene in front of her, but she didn't say anything.
Eros looked at this scene with a smile on his face. Irina was still too young and was not Isabella's opponent at all.
But he didn't expect that Irina's unexpected move would actually benefit him.
Turning his gaze to Isabella, Eros chuckled and said:
"This is something that Madam started, and Madam should solve it."
Seeing Eros looking at her, Isabella, who was supporting Eros's shoulders with both hands, blushed. She didn't say anything but just hummed softly.
After a long time, Eros handed two bath towels to Isabella and Irina, one each.
"Wipe it off! Don't catch a cold!"
Isabella was about to stand up and take the bath towel, but her legs softened and she almost fell.
Fortunately, Eros's hand was quick to hold her in time. Looking at Isabella in his arms, Eros smiled and said:
"Let me help you!"
As he said that, Eros wrapped Isabella with a bath towel, then held Isabella's legs and carried her out of the bathroom in a princess hug.
Irina turned her head and looked at the bathtub, which was only half cold water left. She immediately retracted her gaze and followed Eros out.
Angelica, who was outside, blinked when she saw her mother being carried out, and a blush rose on her cheeks.
Then, her eyes widened because she saw Irina.
Ah? Weren't there only two people who went in before? How come there were three people when they came out?
But this question was obviously not answered by anyone.
Eros used the power of shadow to remove the moisture from Isabella's hair, and then put Isabella on his bed.
Isabella lowered her voice and whispered a little embarrassedly:
"I haven't put on my clothes yet!"
Eros curled his lips and said, "No, that's it!"
Then he threw away the bath towel wrapped around Isabella, covered the two of them with a quilt,
Sleep! Sleep!
Irina looked down at her still wet hair, and then looked at the two people who had already closed their eyes and slept on the bed, and a trace of resentment flashed in her beautiful eyes.
With a sigh, she cleaned up the water stains on her body, then opened the quilt and lay down.
Angelica, who was standing by, stared at the scene with wide eyes. She was a little shocked.
Fortunately, the three people on the bed were just sleeping, and nothing happened as she thought.
She looked down at her infinitely beautiful body, and didn't understand why Eros didn't do anything to her.
With a puzzled face, she stretched out her hand to weigh herself. Although she couldn't compare with her mother, she was definitely better than her peers.
Why?
Angelica was full of doubts. In the end, she couldn't figure out why. She sighed, got up, turned off the gas light, and went back to her simple small bed to sleep.
On the other side, time went back to the past.
As soon as Ayesha got off the carriage, she saw her mother leaning against the door frame. Her face immediately turned red and she walked to Natalia with some embarrassment, and whispered:
"Mom!"
Natalia stared at her daughter with her beautiful eyes, and said in a light tone:
"Why did you come back so late? Don't you know that it is very dangerous in Intiles at night now?"
"Although those people in the church can't see through your hypocrisy... What is this?"
Halfway through, Natalia's voice suddenly paused, because she saw a shiny thing on her daughter's white neck.
So she reached out and picked up the shiny thing.
"Necklace?" Natalia frowned and whispered.
And this style seemed a little familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere.
After thinking about it carefully, she remembered where she had seen it, it seemed to be a jewelry fashion magazine.
Although she couldn't afford it, it was not a crime to look at it and satisfy her desire. Natalia stared at the necklace in front of her and recalled the introduction of the necklace in the magazine.
Seeing her mother noticed her necklace, an idea suddenly emerged in Ayesha's little head:
"It's broken, I forgot to take off the necklace and put it away!"
Natalia didn't notice her daughter's flustered eyes. She stared at the necklace and thought for a long time before she started to read:
"The brilliant starry sky, carefully designed and made by the famous jewelry designer Alan Hallpeter, the entire Croatian continent is limited to one piece, and it is one of the brilliant three-piece set of brilliant stars."
"At the end of October this year, a mysterious buyer spent 9,000 pounds to collect the whole set, and the estimated unit price is 3,000 pounds."
After hearing her mother finish reading, Ayesha couldn't help but widen her eyes. She thought it was very expensive, but not so expensive.
Three thousand pounds!!!
You know, the temple only pays my mother 300 pounds a year, which means that my mother has to save for ten years without eating or drinking to buy such a piece of jewelry?
Ayesha swallowed a little saliva and looked at her mother carefully, and then she found that her mother was looking at her with a faint gaze.
"Tell me! Where did you get it!" Natalia said expressionlessly.
Ayesha knew that she couldn't hide it, so she whispered: "Someone gave it to me!"
"What?" Natalia was stunned for a while after hearing this answer. She had thought of many answers, including stealing and robbing, but she had never thought of this.
Who is so wasteful as to give away something worth 3,000 pounds?
Seeing that her mother still didn't understand, Ayesha pursed her lips, lowered her head and explained in a low voice:
"It was sent by Eros. Lenka. North."
After hearing this name, Natalia looked at her daughter in surprise:
"You went out tonight to meet him?"
"Yes!" Ayesha replied shyly.
Natalia looked at her daughter in front of her and fell into silence. She originally wanted to say directly that it was impossible for you two to be together.
After all, you are a cultist hiding in the shadows, and he is a church member standing in the sun, not to mention that you have a remnant of the night as your stepfather.
But in the end, Natalia said nothing, just sighed and said:
"Rest early!"
She turned and walked into the room.
Ayesha looked at her mother's beautiful back. Blinked.
