Chapter 63: The Old Man

"Walter. Jobs, does the name remind you of anything? The young man walked over and smiled.

Hathaway frowned slightly: "Although it may not be appropriate to say it, but ...... Indeed, I heard your name just yesterday. ”

"Maybe."

Walter. Jobs nodded: "But this answer still makes me very sad." ”

He grinned, but not the slightest bit of sadness, "Do you remember the day before you left Vermont, a boy who broke into your garden and helped you get rid of those two guys who pulled your hair......"

"Oh, I remember."

Hathaway finally had that impression in her mind...... It was a sunny afternoon, and she learned that she had gone to live with her grandmother at Mimosa Manor, and she was reluctant to say goodbye to the birds in the garden, but Levan and Arthur ran over and pulled her hair, she couldn't break free, but stubbornly refused to cry, and a slightly older boy suddenly appeared in front of her, and beat Levin and Arthur away, but that snatched her cake.

"You saved my hair, but you robbed me of my cake!" Hathaway feigned.

Walter. Jobs shrugged: "Please, that's not a robbery, it's a fair pay." ”

"I didn't expect that!" The two of them said in unison, and the two of them looked at each other and laughed.

"Congratulations on your return to Vermont City high society!" Walter. Jobs raised his glass.

"Thank you! But I think that the people in this world are basically people from the two worlds. ”

Hathaway pointed to the room, pun intended.

"Of course, the worldly realms of nobles and magicians are indeed different. But sometimes it has to be confused. ”

Walter. Jobs apparently didn't fail to understand Hathaway's meaning correctly, "Still. The prom inside has already begun, as the protagonist of the day. The first dance belongs to you. By the way, which lad will be able to get the favor of the future countess? ”

Hathaway hesitated: "Tell you, can you keep this secret for me for the time being?" ”

"Absolutely." Walter. Jobs replied in the affirmative.

"I can too." Hathaway nodded reservedly and turned to walk down the hall.

Walter. Jobs was stunned for a moment, then smiled, shook his head, and waited a while before returning to the hall.

In the hall, the dance floor and the band are all ready. Normally, the first dance is the partner invited by the most distinguished person in the ball, but today it is for Hathaway, and she is the protagonist of the ball, and in general, the partner of the first dance she chooses is likely to be the person with whom she will spend her life.

"Dear Hathaway, I think Payne. Camille ...... "Lady Elizabeth whispered to Hathaway as if she were kissing.

What the hell is going on with this woman?

Could it be that he was thinking about pulling it into his nephew's bowl again, and the smile on Hathaway's face was squeezed out for too long. It was almost solidified on his face, and the Grand Duchess just now also recommended her youngest son by the side, and her intention was self-evident.

"Mrs. Xie Luxie's concern." Hathaway only felt a buzzing ringing in her ears, and she didn't hear what was being said. Luckily, this is when the prom begins. Meet Eden. Bell beckoned to him, and Hathaway hurriedly walked over, as for the expression of the Lady Elizabeth. She really didn't care.

"Hathaway, don't be nervous. It's just a dance, it doesn't mean anything. ”

I probably saw that Hathaway was a little uncomfortable. Eden. Bell gave a rare word of relief, revealing a somewhat fatherly tone.

"Thank you, father."

Hathaway's heart warmed a little...... This is not the feeling of the policewoman Xiang Shaoyun, but the obsession of the soul whose main consciousness has dissipated.

Are you still obsessed with this?

Hathaway sighed softly, her gaze casually swept over the crowd...... Suddenly, her eyes were fixed on the two men who were walking towards her.

"Father, I don't think I saw those two just now." After Hathaway saw the two people clearly, the nerves in her whole body instantly tensed, and the first feeling was that she was going to run away.

Walking over were two middle-aged men, one on the left wearing a green robe and a bishop's crown, which was the symbol of the Druid Church, and his face was elegant, like a scholar; The middle-aged man on the right is dressed no different from an ordinary nobleman, his face is resolute and heroic, although there is no deliberately outgoing aura on his body, but in his feelings, there seems to be a powerful force in that body, and a slight leak is enough to break people's bones, and what makes Hathaway frightened is a badge on his chest - the badge of the Unicorn Knights.

"They just arrived, and I was about to introduce you." Eden. Bell strode forward, and Hathaway had no choice but to walk behind him.

"Bishop Leclerc, Head Kennett, welcome both to the Humble House!"

Eden. With a warm smile on his face, Bell introduced, "This is the little girl Hathaway." ”

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the two sides dispersed, and Bishop Leclerc asked Steven. Kennett whispered, "Did you find anything?" ”

"This girl is full of nature, why don't you persuade her to join the church?" Steven. Kennett asked.

"I feel it too. She's not the one you're looking for, though. Bishop Leclerc asked.

Steven. Kennett shook his head: "Probably not, she doesn't have an evil aura on her." ”

After seeing Earl's corpse, he intuitively thought that it was an evil mage who killed Earl, and that the box containing the treasure had a special prohibition of the church, and as long as it was contaminated, it would not be able to get rid of it for a long time...... He didn't know what to say, Hathaway really got rid of this breath, it was only a matter of the past two days, if they had met a few days earlier, I am afraid he would have found that this girl was the target he was looking for.

Hathaway didn't know if the other party was thinking about how to pull herself into the Druid Church, and she only felt that the gaze of the two people became a little undeservedly burning and stinging...... In anticipation of everyone, the first dance music sounded, and when Hathaway pulled Eden, who was smiling stiffly. When Bell entered the dance floor, his eyes on the ground were bouncing like frogs after rain.

"Hathaway, you just don't look down on those young people?" Eden. Bell whispered in her ear.

"The problem is that I can't even remember their names, at least my father won't take advantage of his daughter." Hathaway's answer almost made the Viscount flash, but fortunately, his dancing skills were as superb as his martial arts, and the others didn't notice it.

"There will probably be a lot of people feasting on you these two days." Eden. Bell continued to whisper that he found his daughter a little rebellious, and for the first time regretted sending her out of the city and missing out on the best educational opportunity.

"No, I'm going out of town tomorrow to get acquainted with Vermont City." Hathaway finished speaking, and the dance was just over, and instead of returning to the crowd, she walked towards a small lounge next to the hall, obviously not wanting to continue dancing.

Out of town?

Is that familiar with Vermont City?

Eden. Bell looked at his daughter's back a little depressed, feeling that he really couldn't see through this eldest daughter at all. (To be continued......)
