Chapter 75: Love and Destiny (2)
"That's right, I'm going to kill my brother, and you can help me. In return, I can work for you as your best friend and make your wish come true! β
In the warm sunshine, the forest and green grass decorate the earth with life. And in the midst of this beautiful scenery, a girl dressed as delicately as a doll, with a shocking calm, said the above paragraph.
No matter how incongruous the environment was, no matter how inappropriate she said it, Fran couldn't help but shudder when she understood the cold meaning.
"Kill...... Kill your own brother? For...... Why? β
"You heard him right, I do wish to kill him," Lola replied in a calm tone, without any hesitation, "but I certainly don't kill for the pleasure of killing, it's a need, Mademoiselle de Treville. β
"And you want me to help you kill him?" Fran looked at the other party in amazement, both because of the other person's thoughts and because the other person could see himself as a potential supporter - did I look so much like a murderer?
A wave of disgust suddenly welled up in her heart.
"Who do you think I am? No, no! I advise you, for your own sake, to give up this terrible thought! God will not forgive you! β
Although she was very resistant on the surface, she didn't realize that her failure to leave was a strange expression in itself - if it was an ordinary person, she would have already covered her ears and left, and she didn't want to listen to it anymore.
However. Lola could fully feel such an encouraging suggestion, and as a result, an indescribable sense of relief slowly rose in her heart, as if she saw the dawn she had silently longed for, revealing a crevice in the horizon.
She knew that she was making a gamble, and that the stakes were as big as they could win, and the risks were as great as they were taking. Because of this, she can't find someone from her own family as a helper, she must find someone who has both the guts and the desire for herself. She didn't even get much of a chance to find a helper - because the more people she revealed. The more likely she is to bear the risk of the other party's whistleblowing, and as long as she fails once, she will have no hope, and her whole life will be completely trampled into the sludge.
Because of this. Lola was so excited at this point - yes. Not afraid. It's excitement.
Every gambler has this terrible excitement when he puts all his hopes on a single bet. It was the excitement of knowing that the destruction was beside me, the excitement of seeing that the world was about to be in one's hands.
This has already been done. Then there must be no turning back, and we must do it to the end. I just need to get lucky once, just once...... Although her face was only slightly red, Lola's heart was actually full of thunderous passion.
It took some effort to suppress her excitement and look at Fran calmly.
"Who do I see you as? That's a good question. But first, I would like to ask you what kind of person do you think you are? Then, she sneered, "In my eyes, you are a girl who is determined to go on the road if she decides it; It's a girl who never succumbs to fate and vows to take what she wants. But the point is, how do you see yourself? Will you be much more vulnerable than I thought? Will you be willing to accept the fate of being left behind without saying a word? β
"Not wanting to kill has nothing to do with vulnerability." Fran replied indifferently. "Don't try to provoke me, I can tell the difference."
She didn't show up herself, her expression had become cold and stiff, and her tone was very different from her usual tone.
"Yes, it's different, but it's just because you're lucky to have a brother who loves you so much. You don't have to kill people, so you naturally don't dare to kill people. Lola sneered, "But, in my opinion, you can do it if you need to." β
"Nonsense." Fran frowned.
"So, let's get back to the topic, it looks like you don't want to give up your love, you have to get what you want, right?" Lola was still unhurried, "So, how do you want to fulfill this wish?" β
Fran was momentarily speechless.
"You still can't find a way, right? It's just that with the desire to never admit defeat, with that breath in my mouth, I can't do anything and can't find any way, right? Lola laughed even deeper, "Miss, with all due respect, isn't this just a child's anger?" β
Fran bit her lip so tightly that she inadvertently burst her lip.
Inhaling that little bit of fishy sweetness, she took a deep breath.
"Yes, it's true that I haven't found a way to come yet, but I'm not going to give up." Now that it had come to this point, she was no longer in the mood to hide her thoughts, "Anyway, it has nothing to do with what we are talking about." β
"It has a lot to do with it!" Lola's voice suddenly increased.
After successfully attracting Fran's attention, she continued, "What else can a man as good as your brother do if he wants to stay around?" Whispers implore you to use it already, right? Did it work? If you ask for it a hundred times, it won't work, and I tell you. So...... I'm afraid it's only money, right? There are no chains, stronger than gold. β
Lola sneered and continued, "I've only lived for so many years, but I think I'm qualified to say that. So, as long as you help me this time, we will be connected, because we have the most terrible secrets of each other, so neither of us will betray anyone. That way, I can help you knock him down in the future, tether him to your side, and let you fulfill one of your wishes...... Isn't that a very effective method? As long as you help me this time, you will get a most loyal friend, who dares to do anything for you and for herself, and can do anything. And this man will be able to become the sole heir to the wealth of hundreds of millions of francs! Tell me about it. How much power will you be able to use then? When the time comes, with a little effort, we will be able to tie your brother's hands and feet with money, and then tie him to your side...... You can get your long-cherished wish fulfilled, and you can also have a qiΔ! If we kill him, our happiness will be within our reach - and in that case, wouldn't it be a matter of course to kill him? β
Under Fran's gaze, Lola spoke calmly, "As you know, our two families have a lot of business contacts right now. And your brother though is powerful. But in the end, the energy is limited and cannot fully control this kind of business cooperation. Well, in the future, as long as we think of a way. It is entirely possible for him to fall into a situation where he has to ask for us. Until that time. Our lovely Miss de Treville. Wouldn't it be okay to save my brother and stay with him at the same time? Of course, these are all things that we have to do after we get rid of my brother......"
What a terrible person this is. She thought to herself. I had already thought about so many terrible things in my heart...... Fran's heart sank.
"Just to inherit the family business alone, you want to get rid of your brother?" She looked at Lola with some hesitation.
A child in her kind of growth environment naturally can't understand why a person would want to kill his brother.
"That's right, what's wrong?" Lola asked rhetorically, of course.
"Just for the money? To murder your dearest relatives? β
"What do you mean by 'just for the money?' Isn't this reason already sufficient? Money is the most noble thing in the world, and it is also the source of power, and you dare to mention it in such a tone, I want you to apologize to it......! Lola sneered without hesitation, "Have you never seen how terrible the power of my father, with the help of money, everyone says that money can be used to understand God, don't you believe it?!" This power can be overwhelming, can make all wishes come true, and can do whatever you want in this world! Once one has seen this power, how could one not want to put it in one's hands? An incompetent person like my brother will only make this great power diminished day by day and eventually disappear, how can I tolerate such a thing? No, I won't allow it! β
"But even if you marry in the future, you will take a large dowry from your family, right? Isn't that enough? Fran asked rhetorically. Isn't that money enough for you to spend in the future? β
"Of course it's not enough! What can you do with a few million dollars? Lola roared as if in anger, her face flushed, obviously captured by passion, "If there are only a few million and ten million, then you can only stay at home and be a rich man, and you can't do anything." When we have hundreds of millions of billions, we can change the whole world! β
Then, she took a deep breath and looked at Fran.
"My father, by the power of money, opened estates in the West Indies, ruined a princely state in India, and opened gold mines in the United States...... He's so omnipotent. He also has a plan, he wants to raise funds in the future, to dig a grand canal at the junction of Africa and Asia, connecting the entire Mediterranean and the Indian Ocean! See? This is the power that money brings, which can change the world and affect entire civilizations! How can a person, when he sees such a venerable might, be indifferent to this? β
Looking at Lola who was so excited and excited, Fran didn't know what to say for a while.
Strangely, she looked a little crazy, but her words were so rational that people felt an unusual sense of incongruity.
No, no, maybe this person is an anomaly himself.
So, when the power that can change the world is put in front of you, how can you not take it? How can you watch it go away from you? If I am married, I can only get out of the house with a small amount of money, and only when my brother dies can I become my father's sole heir, which is the most natural result......"
Under Fran's shocked gaze, she raised her head, stared straight into the distant sky, and then proudly declared.
"I am the best inheritor of the career established by my father, and I can make his ideas flourish! God made a mistake, fate played a joke on me, and I took a detour for so many years, but ...... I am fearless and steadfast, and I will overcome this difficulty, correct this sad mistake, and let the qiΔ return to my hands! β
This is the first time she has opened her heart to others, so, even if it is such an indifferent character. I can't help but be passionate.
Neither of them spoke again, letting the wind drift among the green grass, blowing as if they were a little cool.
"I see what you mean." After a long silence, Fran finally spoke, "But I still don't know why I have to do it. β
"Of course you don't have to, I'm just mentioning yì. If you think you have another way to do it, I won't force you to help, but I think you can remain silent in the face of my sincerity, right? Fran restrained her passion. Smiling at Fran. "I hope you can come up with a good solution sooner, and I sincerely wish you a happy future. Oh, by the way, I'm afraid you'll have to think about it quickly. I don't think there's a lot of time left for you......"
With a look that I don't know if it's mockery or pity. Lola said, staring at Fran. "You must know that yourself, right? Your brother is already getting married, so he's going to have to live another place after he gets married, right? How much more do you have to contact him? Not to mention, your grandfather is already that old. To say something you might not like to hear - how many years will he live? When he dies, you'll have to separate up and become two families, right? How many more times will you be able to meet him at that time? By the way, I forgot, I heard that your cousin doesn't like you very much, right? Isn't that even worse? Will you still be able to see your brother then? Ay...... Our lovely Miss TrΓ©ville will be left behind forever...... A lifetime of loneliness...... So, hurry up and find a way, I hope you will think soon. β
The irrepressible anger made Fran squeeze her hand tightly, and she almost trembled all over.
This anger was not directed at Lola.
It was a moment before she regained her composure.
"Besides, I don't have the strength to help you kill."
Although the voice is as thin as a mosquito, it is like a heavenly sound to Lola.
Because she knew that this time she had put all her hopes on the gamble, and finally saw a glimmer of victory.
Yes, the dream of many years is just ahead, just grab it, catch her......
"Hahahaha......" a cruel smile appeared on her face, "You don't have to worry too much about this, I don't plan to let you kill people by yourself, I can do this kind of thing alone, if a delicate girl like you picks up a knife, I don't know what will happen...... β
After laughing, she continued, "I already have several plans to kill him, and I'll use one of them depending on the situation, but don't worry, you won't need to do any of them. β
She didn't even need anyone else to do it, because the fewer people who knew about it, the better, and she couldn't find anyone she could trust completely.
"You're going to kill him with your own hands?"
Fran suddenly shuddered. This girl must not know how many sleepless nights she has thought carefully about how to kill her brother.
"Sometimes, people really need to carry something for their own ideals." Lola replied as a matter of course, and then, she looked at Fran again, "What I want you to do is that one day, one day when my long-cherished wish is fulfilled, after I've done this, you go and tell the others, and we stay together all day...... Because we're good friends. β
Lola had already thought very clearly, for her, the focus was not on killing her brother, but on how to protect herself after killing her brother, otherwise it would be meaningless. Therefore, she must find a reliable person for herself, and prove for herself after she has killed her brother, that she has not had the time and opportunity to commit a crime - in order to get rid of the suspicion that it is possible.
And this person, obviously, must have a certain degree of credibility, and it is best to have some backup, so that others cannot get to the bottom of it.
Isn't a beautiful, cute, and delicate looking famous woman the most ideal candidate?
"Good friend, I don't dare to have a good friend like you." Fran replied slightly mockingly. "So, you mean to call me to give perjury for your crimes someday in the future?"
"Perjury? No, there will be no police and judges to interrogate you at all, because you are the young lady of the Trevill family, and you will not lie. As for the crime...... What is a crime? It is a crime only after it is caught, and what crime is there before it is caught? Hasn't anyone else done something bad? No, as long as he doesn't get caught, then he can naturally appear in front of everyone in a well-dressed manner, haven't you seen this kind of thing in the social world? Isn't that true of your brother? Isn't that how your grandfather is? Lola sneered, "Now you don't have to pretend to be confused in front of me......
Seeing that the other party was so disrespectful to her loved one, Fran frowned.
"I don't allow you to insult my elders like this, I don't want to hear it anymore."
Then she turned away without the slightest pause.
And Lola didn't say anything more, just smiled at her slender back holding an umbrella.
Because, her answer was 'I don't want to hear it anymore', not 'I refuse'.
"Shall we keep in touch when we have time, Miss Treville?" It wasn't until Fran had already walked a few steps away that she spoke leisurely, "After all, there isn't a lot of time left for the two of us...... Love and fate won't wait for us for long, they're too naughty for us to catch them ourselves......"
Fran didn't answer, as if she hadn't heard, and walked away. (To be continued!)
