Chapter 076: Around Christmas (2)
PS1: Click here to collect and recommend, thank you......
PS2: I feel like I'm getting a cold again, and it's cold......
"Elizabeth ......" looked at the girl with light blonde hair and waist-length hair standing next to Adele, although George's mood was a little complicated, he still took the lead in greeting the other party. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info After all, for whatever reason, George can't make any rudeness to the girl in front of him.
"Ellie. However, George was only halfway through his greeting when he was softly interrupted by Elizabeth in front of him, "Calling me Ellie, Isabella's name, it sounds too raw." ”
"What?" Although he had been mentally prepared before, George couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Elizabeth say this. He really didn't expect that this girl, who had reduced contact since he chose to leave the family to start his own business, and had not even seen him in recent years, would still behave so closely to him.
George, who knows the other party's personality very well, knows very well in his heart that there are definitely only a handful of people in the world who can be allowed to call the name "Ellie", and the men among them are ...... At that time, except for several of her immediate family members, it seemed that only herself, an "outsider", could call her that.
And now, the other party still insists that he call him the nickname of Ellie, does it mean that she still has a good impression of herself? George secretly speculated about the girl's mind in his heart, and forgot to give the other party a clear answer for a while, which made the atmosphere of the scene instantly cold.
Despite being a human being in both lives, George was quite passive and sluggish in terms of personal emotions in either life. Therefore, even though Elizabeth's meaning was so obvious, he did not respond immediately.
"I said, call me Ellie. Seeing that George didn't react for a long time, the girl with a gentle smile looked directly into George's eyes, although her eyes were filled with emotions as hot as fire, but the words she said revealed a hint of determination, "Otherwise, this meeting will end here." I'm not interested in having dinner with a fool who would call me Elizabeth. Adele, do you think that's the case?"
"That's right, man. Sister Eli is not an outsider, it is too much for you to call her Elizabeth. You know, when I went to study in the United States, it was Sister Yili who brought me to the campus that I was familiar with, and I lived there. Hearing her best friend and future sister-in-law who was scheduled to say this, although Adele knew in her heart that the other party was just putting pressure on her wooden brother, she definitely couldn't just ignore it. So, Adele put her arms around Elizabeth enthusiastically, and at the same time glared at George again and again, signaling him to respond quickly - if you don't speak, brother, then your sister and I will be mad!
"Well, Ellie, this time it's my fault. Noticing his sister's eyes, George, who had just recovered from his contemplation, hurriedly bowed his head to the other party and admitted his mistake, "I just accidentally thought of something, and I forgot about my surroundings when I was distracted, I hope you don't be surprised." ”
“…… Well. Seeing that George finally responded, Elizabeth's expression suddenly turned cloudy to clear, and her tone became softer, she answered softly, and then whispered in Adele's ear, "Sure enough, your brother is still the same old man, and he is simply a big piece of wood in terms of personal emotions." It's reassuring, but it's also a real headache. ”
"Who's to say it isn't. Regarding Eli's evaluation, Adele also nodded slightly in agreement, "I really don't know how my brother's brain grows." Obviously very smart in other things, but he is so slow to be emotional. If he could be a little more active in this, you and I wouldn't have to put so much thought into making today's plan. ”
Brother, you big wood! Ellie's meaning has been so clear, you still put on such a stupid face, I really convince you! Thinking so, Adele intimately pulled Elizabeth towards the dining room, and at the same time turned her head and glared at George fiercely, confusing the latter.
The chef in charge of the dinner was Gordon Ramsay. Originally, it was almost impossible to invite the famous Michelin-starred chef to prepare such a private dinner, but since George and Ramsay had a good personal relationship, after hearing Adele's request, Ramsay immediately agreed, saying that he was willing to do his old friend this favor.
You know, the Hell's Kitchen show, which made Ramsey famous and brought his culinary career to the pinnacle, was successfully broadcast with George's advice and support. Therefore, for Ramsay, who was born in a working family and attaches great importance to righteousness, he naturally wants to help with this little favor.
Although London is not without top-notch restaurants, with George's current financial resources and status, it is obviously safer and more casual to go to a restaurant than to eat at home. After all, if George and Elizabeth had appeared to dine together in a restaurant in London, it would not have been one night before all the British nobles would know that the Nelson family's number one heir was interested in marrying the eldest lady of the Hood family.
Therefore, in order to avoid attracting the attention of well-intentioned people and vandalism, Adele specially chose the meeting place in George's residence this time, so as not to have some unexpected situations at that time.
After enjoying the delicious meal prepared by Ramsey herself, and after Adele's continuous efforts and hints, George finally mustered up the courage and with a hint of trepidation, and suggested to Elizabeth to stay here for the night on the grounds that it was getting late, and to spend Christmas Eve with himself and Adele at Nelson Manor the morrow.
To George's surprise, after hearing his proposal, Elizabeth was silent for a short moment with a crimson face, then nodded heavily and agreed to his request!
The fact that an unmarried woman agrees to stay alone in an adult man's home, even though the house is a super-mansion with enough room for guests to live in is enough to say a lot. Rao is as emotionally wooden as George, and finally understands Elizabeth's mind at this time.
"Congratulations, brother~" Seeing that her plan was successfully completed, Adele was relieved, and walked up to George's shoulder with a smile, "It seems that it won't be long before I can have another sister-in-law~"
When did it become so easy to chase my sister? George was a little confused at the same time as he was happy about the situation in front of him.
George admits that he has always had a crush on Ellie, and that he could vaguely feel the latter's feelings for him. If it weren't for the fact that he later left the family because of a disagreement of ideas, and became a negative case in British aristocratic circles, it is really possible that he would have gone to Stanley Hood two years ago when she was just eighteen years old. But George didn't expect that until now, the relationship between him and Ellie not only did not fade over time as he imagined before, but had a tendency to intensify!
George also didn't want to think about it, Elizabeth had been his loyal fan and follower since she was a child, and it was quite easy to get along with her for a long time. Although George later left the family and gradually cut off contact with Elizabeth, and later avoided her, Elizabeth's worldview and values had been almost transformed by George's influence at that time, and her heart and feelings were more clear, and it was impossible to easily dilute them in just a few years.
In this way, the two who preliminarily confirmed their relationship spent a safe night in their respective rooms. The guys who thought something good was going to happen tonight could rest, and George did nothing but sleep this night. Also, there is nothing in this book that could cause the book to be crabbed.
Early the next morning, after agreeing with Adele and the duo to set up for the 18th round of the Premier League against Portsmouth, George drove to Tottenham Hotspur's training base to continue preparing for the 18th round of the Premier League against Portsmouth that will take place two days later.
With Christmas approaching and Christmas Eve being a very important Christmas Eve in the West, today's training session lasted only one morning, and George was very reasonable to announce the end of the training session so that the players could go home early to reunite with their families.
However, what George didn't expect was that after hearing this order, the players did not disperse in an instant as he imagined, but scrambled on the sidelines, as if waiting for something good to happen.
"Hey, boss, can you tell me what you did yesterday when you left so early? Just when George was feeling strange, Ronaldo appeared in front of George with a hippie smile and asked a question that everyone was most concerned about.
"Chris, are you kid itchy skin?" Looking at the players around him who were pretending to be busy packing up and going home, but in fact they were all stunned to listen to their own words, George suddenly understood what was going on in front of him, so he grabbed Ronaldo's ears and asked with a smile, "Do you want me to loosen your bones?" ”
George knew that his relationship with Elizabeth would need to be kept secret to some extent before they were officially engaged. After all, the nobility was not monolithic, and if the news reached the ears of those who wanted to use George's marriage for their own benefit, they might come up with something.
Although George is not afraid of other people getting in the way, more is better than less, and it is better to have less trouble or less.
"Oh, hey, hey, let go, boss, I'm just curious, I don't mean anything else, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts......, it hurts, it hurts."
"You dare to inquire about my private affairs, are you bold? Do you need me to give you more today, and have an intra-team match in the afternoon?" Holding Ronaldo's ear with one hand, George looked up and glanced around around with schadenfreude looking at Ronaldo's other players, "If there are still people who have not left the training ground by the time I count to one, then these people will stay and practice with Chris until the training base closes." ”
Seeing the smiling expression on George's face and the non-fake words coming out of his mouth, the players present immediately dispersed - they already knew a certain amount of about their manager's personality, and George was definitely not joking with them!
"Cut, it doesn't look like you're stupid yet. Seeing the players departing quickly, George sighed regretfully - he had planned to count them out and catch a bunch of unlucky ones to keep them here to practice.
After driving away Cristiano Ronaldo, who wanted to spend Christmas in his own home, George drove back to his mansion in Kensington and took Adele and Elizabeth, who were waiting there, to Nelson's estate in Essex!
