She Is Not a Witch
Chapter 76: Breeze blowing
Ceres stood among several guards. Even when pointed by the sword, his expression did not change much. As if he was accustomed to seeing life and death, the black eyes under the gray and white temples still looked directly at Lorrain Hill.
"Serez, do you have anything to say?" The chief maid Chelsea walked in again from the door, looked at the colleague who had worked together for nearly 10 years, and asked.
"I have nothing to say, and the explanation is just a cover up. Besides, I do have something wrong with Lord Angus."
"Your contribution to the Calites Chamber of Commerce is not less than mine. Over the years, it can be said that you have done your best to help the Chamber of Commerce through many difficult times. If there is any unspeakable concealment, after explaining it to Miss Lacey, you may not be unable to forgive and forgive you. 'S fault."
Chelsea stood aside and persuaded that although Serres was wrong, his merits cannot be denied. As long as it is not a principled fault, it may not be unforgivable.
Ceres was silent, still unmoved.
Lorrain Hill looked at Seres, who was like a cold iron stone, and sighed in his heart, why he refused to explain, making him unable to get down the steps of the other party. In fact, this housekeeper was only in Mela. Madam is attributable to Angus in this matter, and the other aspects are really impeccable.
She raised her sleeves, told the guards to retreat, and then asked Chelsea to bring black tea.
There are only three people left in the peaceful room. In the courtyard outside the window, you can see people walking by. Some of them are chamber of commerce calculators, some are maids engaged in chores, and occasionally there are one or two running children. In the autumn season, everyone’s mood is high. A lot happier than before.
The sunlight slanted into the room, but it was not strong. Lorrain Hill sat under the light and the light red dress was shining brightly.
"Uncle Ceres, can you tell me the specific origin of that child?"
"Regardless of whether he is of Angus's blood or not, I will abide by Chengruo, protect him until he reaches adulthood, and will not harm him in the future."
Ceres looked at Lorrain Hill’s clear and transparent eyes, and he was silent for a while before speaking slowly.
"That child, indeed, was not born of Lord Angus."
"Not even Mrs. Mela's child."
"He was born of a comrade-in-arms of mine and a young lady from the Hollis family. Because of the huge gap between their identities, the two could not be together. Under depression, his early injuries suffered and he died young."
"At that time, the Helios family was fighting fiercely with our Calites over the spice trade issue. I was also commissioned by Angus to investigate Mrs. Mela before I knew that my comrade-in-arms had died, and his child was killed by Hellis. The family wanted to use it to disrupt Calites. If Angus died in an accident and the identity of the child was exposed, he would be granted inheritance rights and split the Chamber of Commerce."
"Mrs. Mela is simple and kind, but she is relatively timid. Once asked severely, she cannot withstand the pressure. So the Hollis family approached me and promised to treat the children and their mothers kindly, as long as I close my eyes. One eye, don’t expose this matter. In this way, the children of your comrades-in-arms can also keep it."
"I didn't immediately agree to them, but after a while, the Hollis family and Calites reconciled, and the two exchanged interests, and this child became less important. If we expose it again, it will break the hard-to-reach reconciliation. At the same time, the descendants of comrades-in-arms may not survive."
"So the Hollis family and I kept silent tacitly, just as it hadn't happened, and didn't contact us anymore."
"Until yesterday, the guards of the Helliss family assassinated the eldest lady, because our chamber of commerce is so powerful at the moment, they urgently want to know how Miss Lacey treats the Helliss family, so they contacted me again."
"That's the way it is, and I am willing to accept any punishment. I only hope that Miss Lacey will not anger that child."
Although Lorraine Hill obtained a lot of information by scanning the information of the whole city, she knew that Serres and the Helles family had some intersections, and there were some fragments of the truth, but after all, it was the original past more than 10 years ago, and she also Some places are not very clear.
It’s only now that everything is bright and cheerful. Lorrain Hill lowered his head and stirred the tea cup, feeling a little sorry for Angus. He didn’t expect that he would never have any offspring. This man who had ups and downs in his life finally passed away silently in the wilderness and mountains.
"I see, I promise you. That child will not be pursued, after all, he is innocent."
"But because of your soft heart, you deceived Angus, and he neglected not to marry another wife because of this, and now the Calites family is nowhere to be seen."
When the girl said this, Seres finally lowered his head guiltily and no longer raised it.
"After a while, you will claim to be old and old, so resign as a housekeeper and go to some place in the Southern Islands for the elderly."
"Please follow the punishment from the eldest lady, and I will take care of everything." Seres's voice seemed to be much older.
"And I, I will visit Hellis's house tonight, you can be a coachman again."
"It's ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Miss Lacey." Seres replied decisively.
Looking at Ceres’s back from the study, Lorrain Hill put down the tea cup, and then walked slowly to the window sill, watching the courtyard of the Chamber of Commerce, people coming and going, a prosperous appearance.
It's impossible for her to stay here forever. When that happens, who will lead Calites?
slowly radiated his thoughts and watched the colorful leaves swaying in the sea breeze. The dangling leaves were like scales in the sun, reflecting the sunlight.
The girl stretched out her fingers and felt the touch of the wind moving between them. The occasional wind blew her hair into chaos and floated in the wind.
Lorrain Hill, Lorrain Hill, don't take yourself too great. If you leave you, others will not be able to live anymore. Whether in chambers of commerce or in life, they will spontaneously look for their own sunshine, they will have their own ideas and choices, and they will walk out of their own lives.
She leaned against the window sill and hummed softly a memorized tune, and gently tapped her fingers on the window sill with the beat.
[That little bird, can’t spread its wings yet]
[But one day it will rise by the wind]
...
[Children, walking on the railroad tracks in summer]
[Breeze blowing, caressing bare feet]
[childhood bit by bit]
[Gradually go away]
[The dream to come true]
[in my own hands]
[We keep searching]
[The voyage cloud disappearing away]
[From the time I crossed the hillside]
[Always be like this]
[Unchanged]
[As we have always been steadfast]
[I will be able to protect it]
[That is as strong as the sea god]
