Chapter 289: Christine's Dismount
"It must be not easy to become the teacher of Viscount Monttoton, but who is he?"
"When did Viscount Monttoten have a teacher. ”
The people in the neighborhood were confused, they had no idea what Viscount Monttoten was talking about, because no one had ever heard of Viscount Monttoten having a teacher and had been invited to come here.
It's weird.
"Viscount Monttoton, who are you talking about?" asked Grandmother Christine.
"Mr. Ling from Huaxia. Montroton replied.
"Mr. Ling?" Grandmother Christine's old face darkened suddenly, although she was not familiar with Viscount Monttorton, she still thought that she was looking for her, no matter how bad it was, it was okay to find Zack. After all, it was a drinking party held by them, and since they were uninvited, who else could they be looking for, if they weren't looking for them.
In the end, it was looking for Ling Tian.
"Oh, teacher, so you were there. Viscount Monttoton finally saw Ling Tian, and immediately apologized, and said to the people around him: "Everyone, I'm sorry, there is still something to do, we will talk later." ”
After saying that, Viscount Monttoton went directly to Ling Tian.
"Damn, I'm here to support Alvin. Zach was also angry and his face was dark, he didn't invite you, you came here on purpose, and you supported your opponent, you said that you were not angry.
"McNee, why are you here. Ling Tian was also speechless, why was this guy so well-informed, he actually knew that he was here.
"I'm going to take a look at the legendary Countess Erwen, and my esteemed teacher, you are really a good woman. McNee, who was also Viscount Monttoton, smiled.
"I'm Alvin, thank you, Lord Viscount, for coming to see us. Zhao Wen listened to the sentence of being a talented woman and enjoyed it for a while, this handsome old guy is really good at talking.
In the distance, Christine's grandmother cast a murderous gaze, which was infuriating.
"Madam, Speaker Morris is here. A waiter came running and reported.
"Tonight's protagonist is here. Grandmother Christine walked to the door, Maurice was the Speaker of the Upper House of Tyre, and he was a real powerful man.
After all, the Tyre Upper House of Parliament is similar to the Senate of the United States, and the Speaker of the Upper House of Parliament is the leader of the entire Upper House.
Christine and Zach also lobbied for a long time before deciding to support them.
"Lady Christine, long time no see. Morris, a little old man in his sixties, took off his hat and smiled.
"It is my greatest honour to have you, Lord Morris. Grandmother Christine smiled.
"Welcome, welcome, Lord Morris. Zach also took a few steps forward and shook Morris's hand.
"Zach, how are you doing?" Morris said to Zack.
There was a greeting here, and the people nearby were already talking in a low voice.
"Even the Speaker of the House of Lords is here, and Mrs. Christine and Zach are really amazing, this is their hole card against Ingrid. ”
"It's a pity that Ingrid hasn't come over yet, so she should have confessed it. ”
"Alvin has already introduced herself, and you guess if Lady Christine will punish her by not giving another introduction. ”
"It's very likely that if you don't nominate her again, just secretly inherit her title, it will look good. ”
"Hey, stealing chickens doesn't make rice. ”
Among the guests, except for Mayor Ellison, Lawrence, and those councillors who used to greet Morris, the others did not dare to go at all, and even if they did, they would be stopped by the two Secret Service agents standing next to Morris.
If it is in a more public occasion, for the sake of the image of the people, the agent will not stop it, but this kind of drinking party is not, it is quite private, and high-end, and everyone who comes knows how to be measured.
After a period of greetings, Morris and Christine's grandmother went to the side, Morris's eyes swept around the banquet hall, saw Zhao Wen, and said: "Lady Christine, do you want to announce it again, but I got the news that Alvin has admitted that she is the heir of the earl, and it has been published in the evening newspaper." ”
"I don't think it's needed. Grandmother Christine said coldly: "That's good, when tonight's drinking party is over, go and register tomorrow." ”
"For some little girls who don't know the height of the sky, it's time for them to learn what this place is. Morris said lightly.
Although Count Tuaron had not been in the House of Lords for a long time, and the Passcrits were focused on business and generally had little success in politics, Morris did not want to put Phoebe on the throne and thus allow a foreign family to control the Passcrits.
This is an embarrassing thing for the aristocratic circle of Tyre, after all, the Paskrit family is not a down-and-out aristocracy, but also relatively strong, which is why Morris decided to support Christine's grandmother and Zack.
But he is also not satisfied with Zhao Wen, because Zhao Wen grew up in China, so Zhao Wen can only be a puppet, and Morris doesn't want Zhao Wen to climb on the head of Christine and Zach.
"You should have decided this a long time ago, Lady Christine. Tony also said.
Like Tony, in order to prevent Zhao Wen from inheriting the earldom, there are still relatively few people who would rather support Ingrid.
Just now, he had spoken to Ingrid on the phone and knew that Ingrid would not come again, although Ingrid did not say it explicitly, but he had already admitted that he had lost in this inheritance battle.
At this point, Tony had no other choice.
"Yes, that's it, rest assured, Councillors, that Alwen can only do what she is supposed to do and sit where she can sit. Oh wait......"
Zach suddenly remembered something and asked, "Lord Morris, what about the Lord Chancellor, he didn't come with you?"
"He said he had something to do, so he should come a few steps later. Morris replied.
Morris's arrival, the wine party was pushed to ridicule, time was passing little by little, it was already past seven o'clock when Morris came, so it was soon half past seven.
The reception scene was divided into several areas, the center was the dance floor, surrounded by shuttles holding plates, waiters in tuxedos, and a small platform thirty centimeters above the ground was placed in front of the innermost floor-to-ceiling window, with its back to the Mediterranean Sea in the distance, which was used for speeches, and to announce the start of the ball, to announce Zhao Wen's identity and other purposes.
To the left of the small platform is the band, and to the right is a lounge bar.
Grandmother Christine and Maurice talked for a moment in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, and then sat down in the bar, even after half past seven, and did not go on stage, but only laughed and talked with a few of them.
"When the time comes, Lady Christine has not yet come to the stage to announce Alvin's identity, which is a disadvantage. ”
