Chapter 62: A Difficult Problem

Fate, simply put, is something that you are born to do, as if it were fixed on an execution manual, and it will happen whether you want it or not.

It can also be said that it is a kind of fate to meet some people, just like Roque at this time, he saw Helen at first sight and was convinced that she was the girl who prayed.

At this moment, the originally isolated small table became the center of the tavern in the blink of an eye, and Roque's every move was watched by the people around him.

Seeing the main master, Linda's face looked slightly better, while Helen on the side lowered her head slightly, holding each other with her hands on her lap.

"Hello, I'm Roque, the heir of the Black Thorn family. Roque sat down and said hello.

"Quack. ”

"Roque, you're finally here, I'm amazing, I hope I found the girl. The Duke jumped triumphantly onto the table, its body taking up a third of the table.

"Awesome, I'll give you a first-class credit. This time, Roque will not be stingy with his praise, and in general, the other party has done a good job this time.

"Quack. ”

"It's finally time to open the treasure, when are you going to do it?" The Duke was full of interest in this matter.

"Let's see what happens. Roque's interest was much stronger than that of the Duke, but he knew that it couldn't be done all at once, at least he had to make sure that Helen was talking about it.

As if sensing Roque's gaze, Helen stole a nervous glance at the other party, and then quickly looked away.

"I see, she's Helen, the daughter of Master Enoch. ”

At that moment, a faint exclamation reached Roque's ears, causing him to reflexively look at the speaker, a little girl sitting on a table in the corner drinking coffee, and like a child who had done something wrong, she quickly lowered her head and clutched her cup in her hands uneasily.

After Roque withdrew his gaze, his heart could no longer be calm, he did not expect that the other party turned out to be Enoch's daughter, which was a heinous coincidence.

What to do? A strange fate instantly gave him a huge problem.

"What else are you looking at, take it back to the manor directly. The duke was displeased with his answer, and he grumbled.

"Hello Lord Roque, this is Miss Helen, is there anything else, if not, we are going back. ”

Roque just wanted to reply to the Duke, but when he heard Linda's words, he had to look at them, and hurriedly said politely: "It's a pleasure to meet you, today, the coffee here belongs to you, Helen." ”

Hearing the other party's words, Helen finally dared to raise her head to look at Roque, her face instantly revealed a little shyness, and she whispered in a slightly nervous tone: "Thank you for your coffee, Master Roque." ”

"Master Roque, we've finished our coffee, and if it's okay, we're going back. Linda coldly uttered another serious sentence.

This made it impossible for Roque to communicate with Helen at all, he glanced at the other party, and at this moment, he hoped that the Duke could swallow the maid in one gulp.

"Is this your pet, Lord Roque?" asked Helen like a sweet little padded jacket, not paying attention to Linda's words.

"Yes, it's special, right. Roque's eyes lit up with approval, and his face softened.

"Well, I've never seen such a large toad, how did you catch it?" asked Helen with great interest.

"Quack. ”

"Roque, are you talking about me?"

The Duke's huge eyes sometimes turned to Helen, and sometimes looked at Roque, and couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, Helen said you were special, you must be a great guy. With a smile on his face, Roque responded with a clear conscience.

"Haha, of course, this little girl is very cute, but she is too small. "It seems that the Duke can be easily satisfied, and sometimes all it takes is a word.

"Master Roque, are you talking to the toad?" Helen said with a curious look on her face.

"Yes. Roque nodded.

"I'm sorry, I'm distracted, it's called the Duke, I caught it in a well, and a lot of very interesting things happened in the meantime. ”

"Oh, I love this duke, can I touch it?" Helen made up the picture of catching the toad, and her heart longed for it, and she made her own little request.

Roque did not answer the other right away, but asked the Duke symbolically.

"What, what do you think of me, I'm a monster, how can I let people touch it casually, no. ”

The duke's refusal was unusually firm, which made Roque's anger rise up at once.

"Why don't you say this when you let me hug me, be honest with me, otherwise don't want to eat the delicious food made by Martha, this is a prayer girl, we have to leave a good impression on each other." ”

"You'll have to promise me a time to stay at Martha's house for a while. The Duke couldn't think of a counterattack against Roque for a while, so he had to retreat and negotiate conditions.

"Okay. Roque agreed, and at the same time labeled the other party as a toad with bad intentions.

"Lord Roque. Helen had already understood a little, and the other party did not respond that she must be communicating with this toad.

"Miss Helen, it's really time for us to go, Master Roque must be amusing you. Linda kept a straight face, she didn't believe that Roque could communicate with this ugly toad, it must be a trick to deceive children.

"Quack!"

At this moment, the Duke obediently climbed up to Helen and slapped him in the face quite timely.

"Helen, the Duke agrees, and he likes you too, please feel free to pet it. Roque smiled and gave Linda another stab.

"Really?"

Helen looked surprised, she looked at Roque, and after seeing the other party nodding, she was sure that it was true, and hurriedly and cautiously stretched out her hand.

"Miss Helen beware. Linda said hurriedly, her little heart instantly rose to her throat, and it was too late to stop it.

"Linda is fine, you see, the Duke is very well-behaved. After trying, Helen smiled sweetly at the other.

Roque finally felt a little relieved, and at present, it seems that Helen has been dealt with, but Enoch, the old fox, is not easy to handle, after all, the deep hatred has long been settled.

"I'm really happy today, thank you, Lord Roque, we're going back. After satisfying her curiosity, Helen politely said that she didn't want to embarrass Linda.

"You're welcome, Helen has time to visit Blackthorn Manor, and I think you'll find more interesting things. Roque smiled and extended the invitation, which always felt like a strange play.

"I, can I really come?" Helen was amazed, she didn't expect the other party to invite her, but her expression quickly darkened a little.

"Of course, you are always welcome at Blackthorn Manor. Roque said affirmatively.

"Mmmm, thank you. Helen nodded, a smile regained on her face, and she slowly left her seat.

Now Linda was relieved, she could finally leave this ghost place, and she quickly took Helen's hand.

"Goodbye, Lord Roque. ”

Helen waved at the other party.

"Goodbye, Helen, say hello to Enoch for me. Roque got up to see him off, confirming what the little girl had said before.

"Master Roque, do you know Dad?" Hearing the other party's words, Helen immediately stopped and turned to look at him with a surprised expression.

"Yes, we are good friends. Roque gave the answer, and of course, he was once again in a bad conscience.

"Mm-hmm, I'll tell my dad. Helen smiled like a little moon, and she suddenly felt that she had a good day.

"Yay?"

Watching the prayer girl leave the tavern, the Duke suddenly realized, and instantly jumped up to Roque like an electric shock.

"Big idiot, why did you just let her go?"
