Father and Son were enjoying a rare happiness and tacit understanding, and after that conversation, neither of them spoke, but quietly drank red wine and enjoyed this peaceful time.

But in fact, everyone knows in their hearts that there will be an argument between the two next. One side has to find a way to convince the other to achieve its goals.

Communication is the only way to solve the problem between father and son, and the close blood relationship and similar family values between the two have to rack their brains to convince the equally stubborn counterpart. And I have to admit that both Lawrence and now Charlotte are actually better at using violence to resolve differences.

Both seemed to want to stall as much as possible to avoid spoiling the current atmosphere. But the wine will always run out, and the moment will come.

Charlotte knew how powerful Lawrence's aura was, and in terms of experience, courage, and strength, he was not as good as his father, who was even famous in the Steeu world, so he planned to take the lead and let him start the conversation.

"I have something I want to talk to you about. Charlotte held the empty glass in both hands and looked directly into Lawrence's blue eyes, the only way to tame the lion was to look at him without fear, and Charlotte forced herself to do so, "Forgive me! I started drinking so much that I almost couldn't resist rushing up and punching you when you announced that. ”

Charlotte thought she had spoken plainly enough, but Lawrence still looked at him calmly, pretending to be crazy and stupid, "Because of what?"

"You know!"

Lawrence drank the last sip of red wine, played with the wine glass and asked, "Because your sister is getting married?"

Charlotte nodded.

"Why?" Lawrence spread his hands, "shouldn't you be happy for your sister?Charlotte, you should know Elbert better than I do." I admit that he was not a good king, but I think he would make a good husband because I see responsibility in him!

Charlotte did know Elbert better than Lawrence.

This man is not only excellent, but also full of a sense of responsibility to his family, for which he even forces himself to take a path that he does not like at all. He was even somewhat idealistic, loyal to his friends, kind to his people, and tender to his sister (in this case, Cynthia).

If any girl can spend her life with him, it will not be an enviable beauty!

Charlotte didn't want to lie about this kind of thing, and he nodded in acknowledgement, "yes, he's good!"

"So you're angry because of your good brother Claire? I know you're close to him, and I know he's very, very good! But, trust me, I don't think Claire is a better choice than Elbert. He went to the land of the living dead in the Far North for his ideals, ah! Don't refute it yet, listen to me!"

Lawrence waved his hand, interrupting Charlotte's attempt to interject and continued.

"I know you might say that he went to the Far North to study in order to be worthy of Fervien Leigh, but can't Icewind Castle? To be honest, I don't think the Soul Seat is more powerful than Icewind Castle. So, in my opinion, that's irresponsible, you know? Charlotte. I don't mean that he is not responsible for his own life and ideals, but that he lacks the necessary sacrifice and commitment to his family and life!"

Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that his father was truly the head of a country, and that he could easily find a lot of evidence to refute him. But sadly, he didn't intend to speak for Claire.

"I'm sorry, father. You misunderstood me. Until now, Charlotte was still able to smile comfortably, "I don't want to speak for Claire, but I want to communicate with you from Vivien Leigh's shoes." ”

Lawrence was silent for a while, and Charlotte felt that his mood had changed somewhat, as if he was trying his best to suppress something, and he said in a deep voice, "Honestly, I really don't want to continue to talk to you in depth. Rebecca is right, you've grown up, and I can't ignore your voice anymore like I used to. So go ahead and see how you can convince me. ”

"Mom?" Charlotte had a foreboding feeling.

"Yes. Maybe you have the idea of going to your mother in case you can't convince me? I guess right, right?" Lawrence said calmly, "give up, Charlotte. Although I proposed that Vivien Leigh marry Elbert, your mother agreed to my suggestion without even thinking about it. She said, 'Thankfully, even if it's not perfect, I don't have anything to complain about.'" You see, we're always on the same page most of the time, aren't we?"

Charlotte was almost desperate, and his voice was a few degrees higher, "No!

"Why?"

"You promised me in the state guesthouse in the water capital that you would never let politics affect Vivien Leigh's happiness!"

Compared to Charlotte's excitement, Lawrence was still calm, "Yes, I promised you. But promises don't always come true, even if it's me!"

"Why!?" I don't know if it was the influence of the red wine or the despair caused by even Rebecca agreeing to the marriage, Charlotte, who had planned to communicate calmly, couldn't restrain her emotions a little, "Just for your plan to reign over the world?!You once explained to me and Vivien Leigh the importance of family by Lake Sophia, but how did you do it?!Isn't Vivien Leigh's happiness more important than your throne?!Does Fivien Leigh have to sacrifice for the family?!"

"Isn't it good enough to marry someone as good as Elbert, I can guarantee them a bright future!" Lawrence struggled to suppress his anger.

"Happiness and good enough are two different things!" Charlotte gasped, he pondered carefully, and couldn't help but say, "Family and relatives come first, this is what you teach us. But Father, you're really disappointing me now......"

"Disappointment!?" Lawrence erupted like a lion, and he rose to his feet, his long-standing prestige startling Charlotte, and he roared, "Disappointment? I let you down?! What about you! What did you promise me? You promised to take Vivien Leigh to Icewind Castle after leaving the Imperial Capital, did you do it?"

"I, I......" Charlotte was speechless.

In search of Alvira's Eye, he did break his promise!

"Don't just talk about it, Charlotte, you're just a selfish fellow!" he pulled out a piece of paper from the safe next to his bed and threw it at Charlotte, "I'm so glad I'm a selfish bastard right now!I'm glad that Vivien Leigh didn't go to Icewind Castle with you!Evan is in love with Vivien Leigh, and Vivien Leigh loves you! You tell me! What should I do as a father to keep you from going to a dead end! Should I respect Vivien Leigh's wishes and let her marry you? It's a big scandal!"

Charlotte was stunned, and he flipped through the letter.

TO Charlotte：

Now, you know what, Charlotte.

……

I miss you so much!

You know what? I ...... I love you very much!

It's not a sister's love for her brother, but a girl's love for the boy she longs for!

But I'm glad and sorry for you, for you'll probably never receive this letter......

From Vivienleigh

Charlotte panted like a fish on the shore, and when the gauze that was deliberately ignored was removed, he realized that the wound underneath did not cease to exist because it was covered up, it was still bloody and real!

It was a deep and disordered feeling he had to face!
