"No, no!" Lianka waved her hands quickly. "The relationship between Lit and me is not that kind of relationship..."
"Of course I know that you and Lit are not in that kind of relationship!" Olivia said.
Didn't she know Leeteuk? He was just a pure little boy who only thought about his brother all day.
"Lianka, just tell me, has your sister treated you well over the years?"
Olivia now started to play the emotional card. Based on her understanding, she knew that her sister had been soft-hearted since childhood and would definitely not fall for this trick.
Sure enough, after hearing what Olivia said, Lianka immediately showed a conflicted look on her face, and then she nodded.
"Sister has been very kind to me over the years, and I like her very much..."
"Then, Lianka, tell me, why did you hide these things from your sister?"
"I...I didn't hide it from my sister..."
Seeing that Lianka was still hiding it, Olivia knew that this matter must have been instigated by someone, and Lianka believed in the person who instigated her.
That is Litt.
"Lianka..." Olivia sighed, with a sad look on her face. "Do you know how sad I was when I found out that my favorite sister, Lianka, would lie to me?"
"Wu...sister..." Lianka felt even more guilty after hearing that.
Forget it, since I'm going to help my sister get relief anyway, I might as well speed up my progress. This way, maybe Leeteuk will look at me with admiration.
Having said that, Lianka said directly: "Sister, of course I know that you are the one who has treated me the best since I was a child, but you are too good to me, and I can't bear it..."
"Sister, I actually know everything. The reason why you chose to be with Orson was not because of any feelings at all. It was purely to deal with the family's marriage contract."
"But, that engagement was originally arranged for me.
On the head."
"Sister, didn't you say before that as long as I find the person I like, that's all that matters. Now I'll be frank. The person I like is, is Orson!"
Although she stumbled a bit, Lianka still spoke out her inner thoughts.
Although she didn't like Orson, it was not impossible for her to force herself to do it for her sister.
After all, Olivia has sacrificed so much for her.
"Sister, now that I have found someone I like, can you promise me to change the engagement?"
"Just like you told me before, I also hope that you can be a free bird without any restraints!"
“…” Olivia was shocked when she heard what Lianka said.
"Lianka...did someone teach you to say that just now?"
"No, sister, what I just said came purely from my heart."
"Then tell me, why do you like Orson? You and him obviously have nothing in common..."
"I...I..." Lianka was stunned and began to think about the reasons why she liked Orson.
She quickly searched through every fragment of her encounter with Orson in her memory, and then found...
It seems that Orson really...
Thinking of this, Lianka said, "Sister, you want to ask me the reason, right? Then I will tell you."
"From the first day we met, I was fascinated by Orson's handsome face. After that, even though I said I hated Orson, I would always consider his every move unconsciously in my heart."
"Even when you and Orson were chatting together, I would also get a little irritable for no reason. At that time, I thought I was angry because you were talking to Orson, whom I hated. In fact, it was not the case. I was just jealous because I liked Orson."
"After that, I was feeling down one time and ran to the small pavilion next to the artificial lake. It was Orson who came to comfort me. Although I said that I didn't want Orson to get close to me, I was actually looking forward to seeing him..."
"So, when Orson came to my house that day to help me with my psychological problems, I followed my heart. Yes, I used the dream to confuse myself, but in fact I was just following my heart. I wanted to be with Orson."
Olivia looked at Lianka in front of her. She was stumbling at the beginning, but as time went on, Lianka's tone became more and more determined, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.
Oh no, I just wanted to use this trick to make Lianka back down, but Lianka really gave a lot of reasons. Could it be that this girl really liked Orson before, but she just misunderstood her feelings for Orson.
Then after my suggestion, she should understand it clearly, right?
What is this? Is this a trick to trick the ultimate?
In short, Olivia is indeed a little panicked now.
At first she thought it was just a trick of Leeteuk, but now it seems that the saying "a fly never bites an egg without cracks" is true, and her sister seems to really like Orson...
Even though I had warned him indirectly before, it didn't have any effect.
Olivia is feeling a little numb right now.
She didn't know what to say.
"Anyway, sister, can you understand how I feel?"
As Lianka was talking, she also noticed something was wrong.
This didn't seem to be my original purpose, but I don't know why, as I was talking about it, I got myself involved.
It sounded like I really liked Orson.
But no matter what, as long as I can convince my sister, it's good.
"Lianka..." Olivia said, and shook her head regretfully. "Although I know what you mean, the news of the change of the engagement has spread. If we change it back, how will outsiders view our family?"
"If we frequently change our engagement, outsiders will think that our family doesn't keep its promises..."
"But this isn't a change of contract. This is just returning the contract to its original form..."
"Could it be that, sister, you actually don't want to do this?" Lianka stared at Olivia with a surprised look.
"No, of course not." Seeing her sister's expression, Olivia was shocked, and then quickly shook her head. "Of course, if it is for your happiness, sister, of course I am willing to do this..."
"
Then why…” Lianka asked in confusion.
“…” Olivia was silent for a while.
Can she not act in this play?
She now inexplicably felt a lot of pressure, and the psychological burden of lying to her sister had become greater than ever before.
In the past, she could use the fact that Lianka didn’t like Orson to justify her actions, but now it seems that Lianka really likes Orson. What should she do?
If I refuse, wouldn't I really be regarded as a bad sister who takes away my sister's man?
But if I agree, I won't be willing to do it in my heart, and Orson will definitely not be willing either.
Thinking of this, Olivia came up with an idea.
She said, "After all, the engagement is not something that can be decided by two people. There are still problems with Orson. If Orson doesn't like you, the engagement cannot be changed. So, we will talk to Orson about this matter later. If he disagrees..."
"Okay." Lianka nodded after hearing this.
Indeed, this is all Lianka can do, and any changes to the engagement still require the opinion of Orson himself.
"In that case, let's take a rest today and talk about it tomorrow." Olivia said this and hurried upstairs.
Who could have thought that today, Olivia thought she could control Lianka, but in the end she was defeated and ended up fleeing in panic.
Maybe this is what they call a fool being nemesis of a black heart.
……
On the other side, the city of Constantine.
A group of soldiers pushed open the door of a private house. At this moment, a man was hanging from the beam in the room, and a suicide note was left on the table.
"I burned the house and killed the man."
The soldier in charge of the search saw the suicide note and took it to the search captain.
The captain took a look, then turned and waved.
"Case closed, team closed."
"But, sir, there are still many doubts in this case... What if this person committed suicide and the suicide note was forged, what should we do..."
"Why are you talking so much nonsense?! Didn't you hear what I said?" The captain pointed at the soldier and glared at him. "Case closed, team disbanded!"
"This is an order from above, don't be ungrateful!"
Upon hearing this, the soldier had no choice but to nod respectfully.
"As ordered!"
In the Imperial City, in the Public Security Office, Elsa looked at the paper handed to her and nodded.
The above content is the investigation report on the death of Baron Trist.
After investigation, it was found that Drizzt died in an accident. A drunkard who held a grudge against Drizzt sneaked into Drizzt's mansion when the guards were not paying attention and assassinated Drizzt. At the same time, in order to destroy the body and create an accident, he also burned down the house.
But after Drizzt's death, the search intensified, and the drunkard realized that he didn't have much time left, so he simply committed suicide out of fear of the crime.
"Can we just close this case with this result?" a sheriff asked respectfully, his head lowered.
"Yeah." Elsa agreed, "It's pretty good."
"By the way, during our investigation, we also discovered that one of Baron Drizzt's guards, named David, disappeared after the incident. What should we do about this?"
"That David must have fled because he was not a good guard, which led to Drizzt's death, right?" Elsa put the paper aside and rubbed her temple. "Let's put this matter aside for now. He didn't kill the person anyway. We should use all our strength now to solve the most important case at hand."
The case Elsa was talking about was, of course, Mudrick's demonization.
"Okay, Your Highness, but regarding the case of Mudrick, after we found the man named Rody, the clues were cut off..."
"If the clues are gone, just look for it from other directions. Do you still need me to teach you how to do it?" Elsa frowned.
This is the sentence she heard the most these days. Therefore, she gets a headache whenever she hears that the clue is broken.
How could Rody, a living person, disappear in Saint Laurent City?
A possibility came to mind, but Elsa still shook her head.
It's impossible that he did this. Elsa and he should be in a cooperative relationship. If he did this, he should have informed Elsa.
Not long after the sheriff walked out, there was another knock on the door, and then a tall and straight man in a military uniform walked in.
"Hey, Elsa, have you been busy lately?" The person who walked in was the eldest prince Arthas.
Although she was unhappy with the smile on Arthas' face, Elsa, as a princess, still smiled.
"No, I can't compare to you, my brother." She said this and took a look at Arthas's outfit. "My brother, you look like you are going to the front line? Where are you going this time?"
"This time, I will lead the team to Antica."
"Is it to deal with orcs?"
"Yes." Arthas nodded. "The orcs are becoming more and more rampant. I will leave today, and I thought I would come to see you before I leave."
"Well, may I wish you, my brother, good luck in military affairs?"
"Thank you, Royal Sister." Arthas said this and smiled at Elsa.
Volume 2: Orc Invasion and Dark Clouds in the South
Chapter 4: The Storm is Coming (K)
Duchy of Antica, city of Antica, ducal residence.
This morning, Mary was processing government documents submitted from various places as usual.
Because she had been half-warned by Lucius once before, Mary now did not dare to do anything beyond her duties.
After finishing her business, she stood up and walked to the door.
At the door, her loyal guard Randall was already waiting there. When he saw her come out, he quickly took the coat on the hanger at the door and put it on Mary's shoulders.
It is already September and we are gradually entering autumn. Although there is a magical device in the room to keep it heated, when we go outside, we still have to wear more clothes to prevent colds due to the sudden temperature difference.
"Madam, are you going out today?" After helping Mary put on her clothes, Randall stood respectfully by her side, like a loyal guard.
"I'll go to the master's room first. Someone else is in charge of the municipal construction of Antica City. I only need to go there occasionally to check on the situation." Mary said.
In the past three or four months, the construction group under Celinina has completed the construction of the new city area of Antica. During the construction process, they mobilized the power of magicians to make the originally heavy transportation task easier. During the entire construction process, magicians were also widely involved in cutting building materials and low-altitude operations.
