Chapter 62: Audrey's Change

Audrey is dressed in all her glory today.

Sean is coming today, and she hasn't seen Sean since the verdict of that big case that caused a sensation across the country. Because at that time, Sean was busy with the handover of the Civil Defense Army, and he was busy for more than half a month, and he also went to Fort Partonham, and only returned to the rose garden yesterday.

Because of this, she could not find anyone to share the joy in her heart, and the great revenge was avenged, and Percy was restored, but the most wicked enemy escaped.

Now this joy has turned into a heavy gratitude in her heart, and there is a special emotion surging. This special emotion made her a little flustered when she received a message from Sean that he was coming to Rohnburg.

So she spent two hours tidying up her grooming.

If Sean knew, he would definitely think of the idiom that women are pleasing to themselves, and he would definitely be delighted to see the changes in Audrey.

She wore a long dress in rich satin fabric, with a capped neckline that exposed her neck and chest, while a low placket revealed a perfectly soft back line, and a draped skirt embellished with lace and beautiful patterns.

As she was about to walk out of the living room, she suddenly remembered that Sean was going to pick her up and Carl for a picnic today, and the dress was obviously not suitable for the wild.

She was a little dizzy.

Occasionally looking out the window, she saw a carriage parked at the intersection outside the castle, and a man standing alone smoking a cigar, his eyes seemed to be on the castle.

Audrey realized something, and she slammed open the door and ran downstairs with the corner of her skirt. Playing in the main hall downstairs, Carl looked at his mother in amazement.

"Ma'am, what's the matter?" said Butler Miller hurried over.

"Percy, the man at the intersection outside must be Master Percy. Steward Miller, go and keep him!" Audrey exclaimed, "Carl can't live without this uncle!"

Miller suddenly sent his servants out of the castle.

Percy Robinson came, but he was gone again.

Leaning back on the soft back of the carriage seat, he burst into tears.

It's not that he can't stay. If he stays, he will still be that Percy Robinson, still welcomed by various salons and parties in Poitou, becoming part of the remarkable elite.

But the twists and turns of the past year have changed him completely.

Heaven and hell are only a thin line apart, and betrayal and conspiracy are also a thought.

The cynicism of the past was nothing but mediocrity, and the life of affluence and abundance had tired him, but the intrigue and intrigue in the displacement made him experience a different life.

He decided to protect the family in a different way. Now his name is Antonio Blanche, a businessman from Saint-Nooy, a successful businessman with a business all over the country.

Ironically, he had bought his identity from a broker who had already been hanged.

The Emperor drove the two horses and pulled the light carriage on the wide road. The carriage briskly passed through the green fields, past the beautiful orchards, to the distant tea plantations, and finally disappeared on the other side of a branch of the Rocky Mountains.

"Why did Uncle Percy leave?"

Looking at the departing figure of the carriage, Karl asked his mother in confusion.

"He chooses to travel far away, like an albatross, although he misses his hometown, there is always a time to leave his hometown. Audrey said.

Butler Miller comforted, "Madam, Master Percy will come back eventually." He's already a real man, and he'll take care of himself. ”

"Yes, he's really grown up, but he doesn't even say goodbye to me, it's a little ruthless. "That doesn't change the fact that he's a member of the Robinson family." ”

Butler Miller looked behind Audrey: "Madam, Viscount Connelly is here!"

Karl had galloped towards Sean, who mounted his horse, bent down and lifted Karl up, placed him in front of him, and took him around before returning to the castle.

Carl shouted, "Godfather, can you catch up with Uncle Percy?"

Sean's expression changed slightly, and he looked at Audrey: "Madam, is Percy back?"

"Viscount, just now a man who suspected to be Young Master Percy parked the carriage at the intersection, and Madame said that she recognized it as Young Master Percy. Butler Miller replied.

"Sean, you must know where Percy went, right?" Audrey lifted her face, her beautiful face streaked with tears.

Sean didn't answer directly: "I promise he'll come back at least once a year in the future!"

Miller listened to this and was relieved. Audrey turned and walked towards the castle, walking very fast and graceful.

Apparently delicate heels were not suitable for this kind of pace, so that she broke her foot.

Several maids hurriedly ran over and helped her up.

"Butler Miller, ma'am, is she mad at me?" asked Sean.

"Seems to be, right?" said Miller's butler helplessly.

Sean handed Carl to Miller and followed him into the castle.

The maid hurriedly fetched a bottle of potion, which Sean took and went into Audrey's living room.

Taking off her stockings, Audrey put her feet on the sofa and rubbed them lightly with her hands. Seeing Sean come in, she quickly covered her feet with a muslin cloth.

"Who let you in?" Audrey was still inexplicably angry.

"I've got you a potion, wipe the sore spot as soon as possible, and you'll be fine with a rest. Sean said.

"Put it here, I'll wipe it. Audrey said.

"Why are you covered with a cloth? Are your feet ugly?" said Sean, teasing, "Does Madame have big feet?"

"You've got big feet!" Audrey amused by him.

"Show me the proof!"

Sean took the opportunity to lift the cloth, which was a beautiful slender foot with crimson nail polish on its toes.

Audrey watched Sean boldly put his hands on her ankles, and her face instantly felt hot.

"Is this here?" Sean squeezed slightly.

Audrey nodded, she instinctively wanted to retract her feet, but Sean grabbed the jade feet: "Madam, you can't run away." If you want to be good quickly, don't hide, obediently let me wipe the potion well. ”

Sean's tone was like coaxing a little girl, his demeanor was very natural, his movements were gentle, as if in his eyes, Audrey was just a little girl who needed attention.

A special emotion enveloped Audrey's heart, a feeling she had never experienced before.

Although the Count was very fond of her during his lifetime, and when he came back from Poitou, he might bring him a bouquet of roses, a bottle of fine perfume, or a snack that she loved to eat, and when he was in the Holy City, he would even write a love letter containing love every month, but he would never bend down to do it for her.

She was in desperate need of affection, not because she grew older, nor because she grew stronger in the face of servants or vassals, but because of the death of her husband.

Because of the moral requirements she had received since childhood, and her self-defense mentality after her husband's death, she thought that she did not need it, and that she could do so until she was old, and finally called by the Lord. In the meantime, she needs to raise Carl, let him inherit the title, and watch him marry and have children, so that she feels worthy of the Robinson family.

Her life should be like this, and she will act out according to the script.

But Sean appeared, an "informal" aristocrat who was a little younger than herself, and used an "informal" way to make her once again embody love, and unconsciously, Audrey felt that her cold heart had changed.

The temperature in the living room is changing.

Audrey's eyes glanced at the door, and the servants walked away in amusement, which made her feel even more ashamed.

Fortunately, Sean didn't get an inch, or anything more rude, he quickly wiped the potion: "Okay, it seems that today's picnic is in ruins." Madam, you have to rest for two or three more days, and you will probably be fine. ”

"Thank you. Audrey asked softly, "Sean, you haven't told me where Percy is?"

"Madam, frankly, Percy is doing things for me, this is the path he has chosen, no one is forcing him, no one, including me. He can return to Rohnburg at any time and be his young master Percy, it is his right. Sean said, "But he is no longer the young master Percy he once was, maybe the life he wants now." He has an impulse to seek adventure in his bones, and the existence of challenges and risks makes him feel that his life is worthwhile, and it is difficult for him to accept the peaceful life of the past. Because frustration and depression can change a person. ”

Audrey reluctantly accepted Sean's explanation, "But was he necessary? He used to even need someone to take care of his daily life." ”

"Madame, Percy agrees with me, and his year with the rebels has brought about a more profound change in his mind. He had no confidence in whether the aristocracy, including the Robinson family, would be able to maintain the prosperous and peaceful life of the past, so he had to be prepared. ”

"You men are like that, completely ignoring women's feelings. God willing, may he be well. Audrey said.

"I promise!" said Sean, "just as I promise to make the sky above you no longer stormy, and make your cold face smile like a flower." ”

Sean stood up, approached Audrey, and suddenly bent down to hold her raised face, and kissed it very domineeringly.

Audrey defiantly banged on his back, but got lost in his passionate kisses.

As the long kiss ended, Audrey's misty gaze regained its composure, and she glared at Sean in shame.

Sean felt that he was a big step away from success, and he walked to the door: "You have a good rest, I will instruct Butler Miller to bring the meal here at noon." ”

Sean seemed to think of himself as the master of the place, and he ran away before Audrey had a seizure.
