Chapter 172: In his prime, he has been secretly making a living

As the party gradually returned to normal, the waiter handed me my phone, "Miss Furcummings, I have your message." ”

"Thank you." I took it, and Phyllis's name flashed on the screen.

Unexpected, reasonable.

"Within an hour, come here to see me, and you are only allowed to show up by yourself, and you are not allowed to bring anyone else."

A string of addresses is attached to it.

I called, but the phone was turned off, presumably she had learned about tonight's stab. The killing operation was revealed, but why did you take the initiative to see me?

Either way, it's time to confront her.

I looked upstairs, Si Tianzhe's conversation with Zuoxi should not be over yet, and I didn't hesitate at the moment, I exited the reception hall, found the car, dismissed the driver and bodyguards, and rushed over without stopping.

It didn't take long to find the location indicated in the text message, and the place I went to was a barren field, and there was only one ancient castle isolated in the open, and I got out of the car and looked, the gray-brown ancient castle was tall and dark, and it was completely different from the dim sky.

I held my breath, raised my hand to push open the claustrophobic door, and stepped inside.

Through the faintly glowing lights on the walls, through the old hall with its huge antique wrought iron chandeliers, the noise of the wooden floor is like an eerie knock on the door in the middle of the night, which makes people shudder. The smell of rot in the room was so strong that I couldn't help but cover my nose.

All the way to the top floor of the castle, there is a staircase that leads to the rooftop, I climbed up, and the scene of the rooftop continued the darkness of the night, as if swallowed into the infinite darkness and depth.

"Miss Ruori ......"

There was an abrupt call in the dead silence, with a coldness that seeped into the texture. I suddenly turned around and followed the sound to see a ghostly figure standing in pitch black on the edge of the rooftop. Although the figure was decontoured by the night, there was no doubt that it was Phyllis.

"I'm glad to see Miss Ruori like this." She was the first to speak, with a certain unpredictable smile, not the serious and cautious appearance of the past.

"yes," I raised my eyebrows, "after so much machination. How can you not be happy that you finally dare to show me your true face? ”

"Really? Speaking calmly...... she snorted softly, "Miss Ruori's true face." I don't know how many layers of camouflage there are, right? I obviously love someone else in my heart, but I still want to marry Master Zoxi, don't you? ”

"Tsk, Master Zoxi......" I shook my head sarcastically. Phyllis. It's up to you to blame, whoever makes you can't kill me a few times, and if you manage to get rid of me while I'm running away from the family, I don't have to come back to marry Zosi, and I don't have to be hated by you, right? ”

"You—" Her calm voice was annoyed.

"But that's fine." I sneered, "I'll come back, just enough to settle the old and new hatreds with you." ”

"Clear? Don't forget Ruori-san. If it weren't for someone else saving you three or four times, you would have died a long time ago. Is there still a fate to settle with me here? ”

"Oh, you mean what happened at the cocktail party?" I didn't hesitate, "I really should thank you, you are afraid that I will be bored at the drinking party, so you deliberately sent that person to relieve my boredom, speaking of which, although the game layout is a bit pediatric, it is also interesting......"

"Ruori? Don't be complacent, Furcummings, you're lucky to have failed a few times, but don't think I can't kill you. There was an agitated threat in his tone.

I chuckled and took a few steps closer as her figure became clearer, "Phyllis, you are very smart, but once a person's talent becomes the raw material of a fight, it is a very sad fall. Sink. I also want to tell you that despite your efforts, what you strive for may not be precious to others. ”

"Ha," she smiled coldly, with great disdain, "you say it lightly, that's because all the best from childhood to adulthood is yours!" You have the wealth and status of the world, you have the bright aura of all eyes, you are a princess, everyone loves you, and they are willing to give everything to take care of your crown, even Zoxi, who is so elegant and dazzling like the Ice and Snow Prince, has never left you since the first day you entered the Furcumens family! You frown, you can turn his whole world upside down......"

I was surprised and thought it was funny, "You really think about this too much, but unfortunately, he didn't love me at that time, and just saw me as a step in the realization of his business blueprint...... Isn't it? Speaking of which, weren't you also personally involved in the plan of the marriage between the two families? ”

"Oh, what do you think?" She burst into laughter, and the laughter was so harsh and harsh that I could hear that it was obvious irony.

I didn't say a word, and after a while, she finally stopped laughing, "Pathetic, really pitiful and pathetic......"

I was puzzled, and when I heard her sarcastic voice, I suddenly sighed, "He has carved you into his blood, such a heart-burning but insurmountable love, you are so unappreciative, pitiful, he really loves you wrong!" Don't you know, your father, when Lord Furcummings was still alive, saw that there was not a simple relationship between your brother and sister, he didn't stop you, but he found Zorsie, he couldn't let this kind of thing happen that would hurt the reputation of the huge family, even if you were not blood relatives. He warns Zosi that if he is with you, not only will the position of the ruler not pass on to him, but even you, he will find a way to make you never see each other. ”

"What did you say?" I was surprised, "No way, Zosi clearly told me that it was the elders of the family who strongly opposed it, and Zosi ...... in order to keep his position as heir."

Of course, the elders of the family objected, because they were the same as Lord Furcummings, and they didn't want the old family to have a brother and sister in love. Tooth matter, because of this, Zosi once had a stalemate with them, and even wanted to abolish a few respected elders in the family," she smiled happily, and her voice was brisk, "Fortunately, Lord Furkmins is stronger than them after all, he not only threatens Zosi with you, but even after his death, he has a careful plan, he is worried that one day he will die, Zosi will still insist on going his own way, so he left a will early, if Zosi dares to be with you, the position of the ruler will be abolished immediately, and the inheritance rights will be withdrawn, as for you, I'm afraid I'll be under house arrest somewhere in the world for the rest of my life, never to see him again. ”

I didn't expect it, and I froze in place for a moment.

I don't want to believe her words, but there is no reason not to believe it, I never knew that my emotional belonging is related to so many ups and downs, and it is related to the treacherous power competition in the shadows of the huge family.

"Lord Furkmins's will is kept in the hands of the two elders, this is the top secret of the Falk family, once something happens that they don't want to see, the effect of this secret order, no matter how solid Zoxi's foundation is over the years, it is difficult to disobey, but, no one would have thought that Zosi would actually imprison the two elders in order to be with you, and no one was allowed to touch it......" She gritted her teeth, "It's really a big deal, and it dares to touch the highest status and most powerful old man in the family, and there are two in one move." ”

"So, what about the result?" I was powerless to refute it, and even the voice to uncover the truth had lost its confidence.

"The result?" She sneered, "You see, he did what he wanted, but this big move caused many people in the family to be dissatisfied, they knew that Zosi had placed the two elders under house arrest for no reason to be with you, and the public was angry, and the rebellion was extremely high at one point, fortunately, they didn't know that the will existed, otherwise things wouldn't be as simple as they are now." However, it is an irreparable fact that Zosi was greatly hurt and his position was shaken because of this......"

The night wind is sad.

Her face reflected the thin and cold waning moon, strange and distorted, "Until now, you can still see the scars of the Fok family after their serious injuries, it's all because of you, it's your fault!" You sinner of the House of Furcummings! (To be continued......)
