Eagle’s Glory

Wait, it's best not to let me gain the upper hand in the future, otherwise I'll take advantage of you too.

After hearing the other party's self-destruction of her good deeds, Maria couldn't help but feel hatred in her heart.

However, she herself knew that this wish would be difficult to realize - Louisa was the eldest daughter of the Austrian Emperor. Even if she became powerful in the future, what could she do to her?

The only hope is that Sophie will take charge of the Austrian court in the future. Presumably her twin sister will be willing to settle accounts with Louisa then.

However, she buried these thoughts in her heart and remained calm on the surface.

Of course, the harmonious atmosphere between the two people at the beginning was gone.

Louisa felt a little numb, and she didn't know how to deal with the current situation.

She didn't expect that her son was not only playing with fire, but also playing with a big one.

The inexplicable addition of a granddaughter does not make her feel excited. On the contrary, it is just an illegitimate daughter who brings shame to her family.

The more I thought about it, the more annoyed I became, but I didn't know how to vent it, let alone how to solve it.

Because there was nothing she could do, she naturally vented her anger on Maria - if your sister hadn't acted recklessly, how could things have reached this point? He deserves to be so miserable now and definitely does not deserve sympathy.

Maria could sense the anger in Louisa's heart now, but she was not afraid or concerned at all, she just faced the other person with a smile.

"As far as I know, Her Majesty Theresa took the initiative to welcome this disaster - when your son left without saying goodbye before the engagement, if she wanted to escape, she had every chance to escape, as long as nothing happened. However, the truth is exactly the opposite. She insists on making this precarious marriage come true more than anyone else. I don't see any reluctance or regret - so, instead of saying that she is pitiful, it is better to say that she is determined enough. , even if you know these things, you still have to be loyal to your choice. You don't owe her anything, she should be grateful to you for your matchmaking at that time."

Although Maria said it as if she was praising Teresa, in her heart she only felt angry. If Teresa hadn't been so insistent on going her own way, there would have been room for improvement, but now it has become a dead end.

Maria's comfort did not cheer Luisa up.

"If everything before becomes a forgotten past,

That's acceptable, but if those sins still linger, then I think it will be a huge disaster. She replied coldly, "It seems that you have no intention of forgetting. On the contrary, you are willing to provoke everyone's scars again." "

"Oh, really? You call all of this sin?" Maria asked with a smile, "Maybe it is, but what about the child? Is she also a sin?"

"This child is indeed miserable. She was brought into this world carelessly by two people without anyone's blessing, and she was burdened with sins that should not have been hers." Because he felt very unhappy, Louis Sha was completely rude when she spoke, "I'm sorry, but her fate can only be decided by my father... I personally can't get in the way, and I can only obey all your Majesty's will."

"So, you regard your granddaughter, the emperor's great-granddaughter, as dispensable or even a better burden, right?" Maria asked again, "Since Sophie has fallen into this end, although I don't I was convinced but there was nothing I could do, but don’t you think that we should all give this child a better fate? I thought I should make a little contribution, so I did it.”

Louisa narrowed her eyes slightly to hide her disdain.

She didn't believe that Maria had such good intentions and was willing to do her best to help her newborn niece. She just didn't want to point out the other party's "evil intentions" out of etiquette.

"You are free to do whatever you want. I just said that I can't help you. Everything should be left to fate." She replied calmly. "Don't blame me. I never expected her to be born. She is the product of two noble but irresponsible people who indulged in sexual pleasure. The person who made her so miserable when she was born was not me, but her. Her parents - if she needs to repent, it’s not me, but her parents! By the way, I hope they both repent well in the future so as not to make the same mistake again."

As far as Louisa's identity is concerned, it is extremely disrespectful to say such things. The reason why she said so decisively was partly because she was angry, but more importantly, she felt that she had no obligation to help in the first place. That illegitimate daughter.

This kind of thing is not uncommon in the royal family. Among other things, her late husband Napoleon left several illegitimate children. The most famous one is still in Poland. Napoleon did not take care of the child when he was still emperor. On the contrary Almost as if he didn't exist.

This is true between father and son, let alone grandmother and granddaughter.

Louisa's decisive attitude was not beyond Maria's expectation. She didn't love or miss Clestel that much, she just used it as an excuse. Now that she saw Louisa being so angry, she was satisfied. .

"There are countless people who should go to God to repent. I'm afraid the two of them will have to wait in line for a long time if they want to get this honor." Maria still maintained a smile, and then replied warmly, "I don't expect you to stand up and help them. In fact It’s good that you can stand on a neutral position, it doesn’t matter, we will do the rest.”

Louisa thought for a moment. She was extremely disgusted with Princess Maria, but she couldn't get angry, so she could only swallow her breath.

"My father is not someone who changes his mind easily. Since he is so angry, it will take a long time to wait for him to calm down." She commented dryly, "Under the current circumstances, I I think it’s best for His Highness Sophie to stay on her own and use her sincerity to impress His Majesty. In this case, His Majesty will be merciful one day. After all, there is no need for him to be serious with a little girl.”

That's what she said, but she didn't believe that Sophie would just "keep to herself". After all, she had secretly helped her son deliver a letter to Sophie not long ago.

But what can she do?

Both her son and Sophie are stubborn and powerful people. Now there is another Maria who is fanning the flames. No one can stop her - and even if she needs help from her son, she will not Dare to tell the truth to your father?

After thinking about it, she could only pretend not to know. No matter what her son and Maria wanted to do, she would never participate, but she would never ask, and they could do as they pleased.

"Well, since you think so, I have no comment." Maria stopped arguing with her, "Don't worry, no matter what happens, you never need to bear any responsibility. What you have done so far These things are enough for Sophie and I to thank you."

"I hope so." Luisa didn't dare to expect Maria to thank her, but it didn't matter to her. She didn't want to have anything to do with Maria anyway.

There is a saying that there is no need to speculate. Now that it has been said, Luisa no longer wants to waste words with Maria. She saluted and said goodbye.

"Your Highness Maria, I am once again grateful for everything you have done for my son. Logically speaking, when he is seriously injured, I should be the one to take good care of him. But now for the sake of confidentiality, I can only stay with him temporarily. Keep a certain distance... So I entrust him to you for the time being. I believe that since you are friends with him, you will definitely take good care of him. Moreover, in this small principality of ours, although you cannot enjoy It’s an open courtesy, but you are undoubtedly my most distinguished guest, you can visit as long as you like, and I wish you a great time here.”

After saying that, she left quietly.

Logically speaking, she should go to her bastard son again, question him whether what Maria said was true, and angrily accuse him of smearing the Habsburg royal family again, but she gave up after just a thought.

She knew that although her son was sweet-mouthed when he wanted to please others, he was more vicious than anyone else when he wanted to harm others. As a victim, she herself had experienced the feeling of being so angry many times.

Maria had already made her so angry. If she had another quarrel with her son, she was afraid that she would be angry to death today, so she gave up her plan to reprimand him angrily.

After all, what's the point of lashing out when the done deal is done? She couldn't control her son, so she could only let him do whatever he wanted.

If God continues to bless him, then whatever he does is right; if God is no longer willing to bless him, then whatever fate he suffers is caused by himself.

After watching Luisa leave with a smile, Maria's face suddenly turned as cold as ice.

She has always been a stingy person who is determined to retaliate, so naturally she will not forget Louisa's contempt for her just now, and the fact that she ruined her - even though it was for a reason.

However, now is not the time to settle accounts, we will talk about it later.

With a stern face, she walked into the room that Louisa had just left.

As soon as she came in, Aigron noticed her, and then noticed that she looked not right.

"It looks like you and my mother were having a bad conversation?" he asked.

"It's more than unpleasant, it's almost a quarrel." Maria replied coldly.

Aigron was a little shocked.

He knew that his mother was not a good-tempered person, but he also knew that her mother always followed etiquette and would not lose her temper at will. Even if she didn't like Maria in her heart, logically she wouldn't show it.

"How could there be a quarrel?" he asked doubtfully.

"Of course that's all thanks to you -" Maria glared at him, "She seems to think it's an eyesore that I'm walking with you."

This Aiglon can understand, he even feels a little guilty - because he really has a ghost.

"As long as we have a clear conscience, it doesn't matter what she thinks -" he smirked, "Besides, you will be a guest after you come here, so even if she is unhappy in her heart, she will maintain superficial courtesy and not embarrass you. "

"But, I also told her about Kristel." Maria sneered. "She was shocked and angry, and her face changed."

"What?" Even Aigron was shocked by Maria's boldness, "Why did you tell her?"

"As a grandmother, shouldn't she know about her granddaughter's existence?" Maria asked. "Or are you not sincere in letting Crystal live under the sun in the future?"

Aigron was speechless.

He couldn't deny this.

It was natural for her grandmother to know about her granddaughter's existence, even if Louisa didn't want to care about the child at all.

"What did she say?" Aigron asked cautiously.

"She said that these are all sins committed by you, and you should bear them on your own. She doesn't want to care about it, and she doesn't want to offend His Majesty the Emperor." Maria replied.

This was not beyond Aigron's expectation. He had already known that this would be the result.

He also knew that in a sense, it was Maria who was deliberately forcing him to marry her, so that he would not be able to deny her fault in the future.

"It doesn't matter. I have never relied on my mother since I was a child. Her attitude has nothing to do with me. Even if she doesn't recognize Christel in the future, I will fulfill my responsibility as a father."

So Aiglon promised her again.

At this time, he could already imagine the scene when the two people met just now.

He had already seen how venomous Maria can be. When she and Luisa started to quarrel, Maria would easily anger her mother if she showed off her skills, especially when such a scandal broke out. It would make her feel at a loss - so it is understandable that she would lose her composure.

He didn't want to blame Maria. Since everything had happened, what was there to say?

Besides, after all, everything is his responsibility, and he has no right to lose his temper.

So...whatever!

Anyway, his mother won't do anything to him now. She can be angry if she likes. As long as she heals her injuries here, she can leave quietly. Then the sea and the sky will be brighter again.

While he was still pondering, he suddenly felt a slight chill on his face, as if some raindrops had fallen.

He quickly took a closer look and found that they were Maria's tears.

"What are you crying for?" Aigron was shocked and confused.

Logically speaking, it shouldn't be the case. Maria has had a lot of experience in quarrels since she was a child. How could she cry because of a quarrel? Besides, it seemed like she had the upper hand.

"It's nothing, sir." Maria seemed to be emotionally broken. She cried and shook her head slightly. "I just suddenly thought that if things developed in another way, maybe I wouldn't have met her for the first time. In such a situation, I... what am I angry about! What I am angry about is not her, but myself, and the fate that is teasing me... I should not have ended up in this situation! "

Aigron was still confused about this sentence, but he could see that it was obvious that Maria could not be stimulated now.

So, he reluctantly picked up the handkerchief from the side, then carefully raised his hand and wiped her tears.

"Are you feeling better?" he asked after a long time.

"It's all your fault!" Maria snatched the handkerchief and gave him a vicious look.

Then, she stood up and left the room, leaving the confused young man behind.
