638. Chapter 638 - There is a ghost in my heart
The night is quiet, and the retro-style curtains reveal a kind of heaviness and gloom under the light.
The only sound in the study was the turning of the pages, accompanied by the sound of keyboard tapping, and a straight figure on the wall was elongated by the light.
Sophia stood at the door of the study, quietly watching this qiē, and after a long time, she left satisfied. After walking through the long hallway, I finally entered my bedroom and lay comfortably on the sofa.
"Miss, it's been half a month since the young master came back, and his attitude towards you has always been so lukewarm, do you want to find a way?" Anna smiled flatteringly.
Sophia played with her beautifully made nails and snorted coldly, "Idiot, wouldn't it be nice for him to stay with me like this?" What can you do? ”
"I mean, let the young master and the young lady get married early! Isn't this what Miss has always wanted? ”
"What's the hurry! As long as he is willing to stay at Hauge Manor, it is only a matter of time before he gets married. By the way, has he behaved suspiciously during this time? Have you asked other maids for news or something? ”
She has been waiting for more than ten years, and she is not in a hurry for a while, she has patience and waits slowly. She was like a hunter full of traps, slowly enjoying the wonderful process of the prey being baited step by step, just as she had snatched the manor from Langdon step by step, and robbed all the property of the Louis family. Anyway, she is the ultimate winner, and she is not in a hurry.
"As far as I know, not at all, except for three meals a day, the young master basically stays in the study, busy reading the details of the family business, and has called several senior management. Not only did he not inquire about the woman again, but he also did not contact the people of the Long family. It seems that the young master has already liked the life here. ”
", of course he has to like it here. He grew up here, his soul belongs here, and his bones are greedy for it. A man, no matter how high he is on the surface, he likes power and money in his bones, love is just a rebuke when he is down, and slowly he will fall in love with the feeling of being rich...... Yes, when will the Lamborghini I ordered arrive? ”
"I just asked today, and I'll be there in two days. Or is the young lady wise, it seems that the young master should have completely forgotten that woman, right? Anna was smiling with teeth all over her face.
"I didn't forget!" Sophia's brows furrowed when she said this, "He carries that dagger with him every day, which means that he still has that woman in his heart!" ”
"Did the young lady really hand over all the Louis family's business to him? What if he takes over the business and fails the young lady? ”
Sophia sneered, "Do you think I'm that stupid?" All I can hand over to him are outdated, not very profitable businesses. Of course, I will hold the really important business to the death, unless he is really willing to marry me, I will completely hand over all the business to him. ”
"It's still young lady who is smart!"
"Go, send him a supper, and say I'll let you send it. Let him rest early and not get too tired......"
"Yes!"
Half an hour later, Anna walked into the study with a dinner plate...... At this time, Monica was not reading, but sat upright, looking at the dagger in her hand repeatedly, and the whole person fell into a deep contemplation.
Only then did Anna realize that Miss Sophia was smart, and the young master had not forgotten the girl......
"Ahem...... Master, Miss asked me to bring you supper, she said, the night is too late, let you rest early! ”
"Got it, let's go down!"
After Monica finished speaking lightly, she put away the dagger very cherishedly.
"By the way, give me a set of keys to the cellar in the basement!"
Anna was about to leave, and when she heard him say this, she was stunned for a moment, "I still have to ask Miss Sophia for advice on this matter before I can make a ......."
"Fart!"
Before he could finish speaking, Monica slapped his palm on the table and scolded angrily, "Who is the owner of this manor?" Is it Sophia or me? ”
Sophia kept saying that he would take care of Hauge Manor, and now, he actually asked the butler for a key and couldn't get it, didn't this slap him in the face?
Anna was frightened and quickly explained, "Young Master, if you want to drink, I can send someone to fetch it!" ”
"Get out!"
Monica raised her big hand and slapped the supper on the table, and with a bang, the soup splashed all over the ground.
"Young master, don't be angry, the key is, I'll go get it!" I'll go get ......" Anna was frightened, and hurriedly turned around and ran out,
Ran to the storage room, and was about to get the key after turning on the light, when he suddenly saw Sophia already standing in front of him, "Miss, young master, he ......"
Before she finished speaking, Sophia slapped her, "Idiot, can't do such a trivial matter?" I really raised you for nothing! ”
Anna's cheeks were flushed, and her face was aggrieved, "In that wine cellar, that woman was once imprisoned, in case the young master finds out......"
Sophia slapped her again, this time harder, and the other side of Anna's face was also red.
"Idiot, do you think he won't be suspicious if you don't let him in?" Sophia scolded angrily.
"So what to do?"
"Go, give him the key! From now on, whatever he wants from this manor, you must satisfy him, and also, send someone to watch him secretly, and if there is any suspicious action, come and sue me immediately. ”
"Yes, Miss, I'll do it!"
In the study, Monica stood quietly in front of the window, holding the lattice with one hand and the dagger in the palm of her hand with the other, seeing that a year was about to pass, Xiao Mo, where did you hide this woman, is it really because of the misunderstanding of that letter, do you want to hide from me for the rest of your life? Monica was depressed, her fingers repeatedly brushing the pattern on the tip of the knife.
Why did you leave the dagger here, what the hell are you trying to say to me? Xiao Mo, can you give me a little more hint? You know I'm stupid, I don't have it that easy to guess what you mean reads;!
There was a sound of footsteps from far and near......
"Young master, young master, I found you the key you need." Anna smiled flatteringly. Reaching out and handing a bunch of keys to Monica.
Monica glanced at her faintly, and the palm prints on her left and right cheeks were particularly clear, "Put it on the table!" ”
"Oh, good!" Anna put the key on the desk as she said, but she was not in a hurry to leave, and stood quietly next to the desk......
Monica turned around and glared at her, "Why aren't you leaving?" ”
"Young Master, when are you going to the wine cellar? There are a few broken lights in the cellar, and I'll show you the way so you don't fall! ”
Sophia had told her to keep an eye on him at all times, and of course she didn't dare to take it lightly......
"I'm tired now, let's talk about it tomorrow!" Monica got up, reached for a book, and strode out. Anna was stunned for a moment, struggling with her heart whether to take the key and take it away, at this time, the light had been turned off by Monica, and the study was in total darkness, Monica stood at the door of the study, and said impatiently, "You still don't leave?" ”
"Okay, I'll go!" Anna gave up the idea of taking the key, turned and walked out.
At twelve o'clock in the evening, everything was quiet......
Monica quietly walked out of the bedroom, and the whole manor seemed to fall into a deep sleep, and it was eerily quiet. But he felt that there was something evil hidden in this strange calm, and although he couldn't say where that feeling came from, he always felt that Xiao Mo was here, somewhere in the darkness. If she really didn't care about him, why bother to go all the way to Paris to return the dagger, she could have thrown this dagger away, or entrusted it to Xia Yanxin. I can't figure it out, it's not right!
In the dark, he fumbled to the door of the study, opened it gently, illuminated the room with the light of the lighter, the set of keys were still intact on the desk, he grabbed it in the palm of his hand, and found a miniature flashlight in the drawer of the study, and then walked out.
Growing up living in this manor, he was very skilled in every way, and he could enter and go freely with his eyes closed.
Soon arrived at the door of the basement, took out the key and opened the door reads.
The moment he opened the door, the smell of wine came to him, he took a greedy sip, turned around and closed the door, turned on the flashlight, and walked deeper into the cellar.
At this time, in Sophia's bedroom, she was asleep, and a sound of urgent screaming woke her up from her dream, and when she opened her eyes, Anna's face was anxious.
"Miss, Miss Sophia?"
"Are you looking for death? I woke up in the middle of the night!! Sophia said that she hated it when people interrupted her dreams.
"Miss, big thing, you listen to me first, it's not too late to be angry again!"
"Hmph...... Say it! ”
"As you expected, the young master sneaked into the wine cellar alone......"
"When?"
"Just ...... I don't know what to do, so I'm here to tell you! Please, you have an idea! ”
Sophia sneered, "I know he doesn't trust me!" What are you panicking, I can't find any clues for him, let him find it, you continue to go to the cellar to star, and inform me as soon as there is any situation. ”
"Okay, okay, I'll go!" Anna panicked out the door.
Sophia couldn't sleep anymore, so she got up, took a cigarette and lit it, and smoked it slowly......
At this time, Monica put the flashlight in his mouth, and searched every corner neatly, following Long Yutian for more than ten years, in addition to practicing a good skill, he also has a pair of keen eyes.
Calm, introverted and unassuming, this is his experience in life for so many years.
An hour passed, and he had searched most of the cellar, and there was no clue, and he was a little anxious......
Suddenly, in the darkness ahead, there was a faint cry for help, "Help......
Listening to the thin voice, it was like a woman, and he was startled, and he quickened his pace and rushed away.
