"But I won't allow you to humiliate me like this, and especially, please understand that if you hadn't known him for so many years, Madame Treville would have been me!"

When she heard such merciless and contemptuous words, Charlotte was so angry that she almost slapped the other party in the face, but because of the current situation, she forcibly suppressed the resentment in her heart, and just stared at the other party with a gaze that almost killed people. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Such a gaze was indeed a bit terrifying, but Matilda was undaunted, looking back at the other party with her head held high.

Although she did feel sorry for Charlotte and had always been very tolerant of her, she was furious when Charlotte questioned her contemptuously that she had approached her husband for some purpose.

"Madame Treville, I know that you are from a famous family, and since you have been a child, countless people have touted you to welcome you, you can get whatever you want, no one will refuse you, and I have to say that you do have such beauty, and you deserve everything you deserve......" Matilda's tone slowed down a little, but it still seemed tit for tat, "but if you think that everyone is inferior to you because of this, then I am afraid that you are wrong, although my surname is not as good as that of Tréville, but there is really no need to feel inferior to you." , so please don't say anything about me like that again, okay? ”

Because of Matilda's resistance, Charlotte's breathing became a little heavy, as Matilda said, she has been pampered since she was a child, and when she entered the social world, she was also full of calls and compliments, so it can be said that she is arrogant at home and outside, and it is very rare to be refuted in person like this.

She didn't expect that the other party would actually say such a thing.

It was tantamount to saying that if they both knew the Charles at the same time, she would eventually become Madame Treville.

"Wishful thinking." Charlotte couldn't help but retort to the other party, "Do you really think that Charles will have a crush on you?" Do you really think that you can exclude me? ”

"If that's the case, why can't I?" Matilda looked at the other party almost in a challenging manner, "Do you have confidence in yourself?" Or are you and your husband like-minded? Or is he happy to be around you? If the answer to these questions is 'yes', then do you still have to run up to me and tell me to go away? Your husband naturally has a crush on you, doesn't he? ”

These harsh cross-examinations made Charlotte speechless for a while.

Matilda's words were indeed difficult to hear, but they made it difficult for her to answer for a while.

Indeed, since she was a child, she has always dragged this cousin with a very strong attitude, and she is not interested in the literature or art he loves, if you really want to talk about it, I am afraid it is really difficult to refute this young lady with confidence.

"Hey, my self-esteem is surprisingly strong." After a moment of silence, Charlotte finally held back her anger, and then looked at the other party with a sneer, "Since your self-esteem is so strong, why do you want to do such a dishonorable thing and hinder other people's marriages?" Do you think you really deserve your last name by doing such a thing? ”

Charlotte's taunt made Matilda's face flush slightly, her eyes swayed from side to side, and she was speechless for a while.

"I ...... I don't want to ruin your marriage. Finally, she said with some hesitation, "I have always felt sorry for you, and I don't want to embarrass you...... You want to make amends for the offense and hurt you before. ”

"In that case, I ask you to be considerate of me and disappear from my husband's side." Charlotte said politely, "I'm sure that's the best you can do to compensate me." You see, with your surname, don't you have trouble finding a good husband? I think if you really do what I say, it will free us all from this situation, right? Why do you have to put yourself in a dishonorable and unhappy situation? ”

"It's very easy for me to leave my husband...... If Charles doesn't want to see me again, then I won't show up in front of him, and I won't seduce your husband in a low voice! But if Charles still wants to see me, then I don't see any reason to hide for your sake! Matilda replied directly, "So you see, all this is not in my hands. ”

Matilda's answer was very unkind, and she knew that she was wrong, so she kept silent after speaking. The secret relationship with Charles, although not very moral, is already her private entertainment, and Charlotte's request is really difficult for her to accept. What's more, Charlotte's domineering attitude really disgusted and annoyed her.

She had an even more inexplicable thought in her heart - didn't our ancestors come over like this for thousands of years, my parents have their own lovers, why do you have to dwell on this kind of problem? I'm not going to ruin your marriage......

Matilda's uncooperative attitude made Charlotte even more annoyed.

"In other words, would you rather keep this dishonorable love affair alive than leave with dignity and give up a relationship that you shouldn't have continued in the first place?"

"I don't feel much averse to that." Matilda forcibly suppressed the shame in her heart, and then looked at the other party reluctantly, "I have already said that all this does not depend on me, but on your husband...... and you. ”

"Shameless!" Charlotte finally couldn't help it.

"Charlotte, Matilda, what are you doing?" At this moment, Her Majesty suddenly appeared at the door of the cabin, "I just heard that there is some noise here...... Are you guys arguing? ”

When Her Majesty asked, the two of them stopped.

"Nothing, Your Majesty, I have something to ask this young lady." Charlotte reluctantly squeezed out a smile, "Now that the matter is over...... We didn't quarrel. ”

"Oh, is it......" Queen Carona glanced meaningfully at the two of them again, apparently not believing Charlotte's words. Charlotte, come out and take a look at the forest next to us, it's beautiful! ”

Although she didn't hear it very clearly just now, looking at the behavior of the two of them, it was obvious that they were arguing just now, but since they didn't want to talk about it, Queen Kalona didn't want to ask more, but wanted to end this dispute.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Charlotte immediately responded.

After Queen Carona left, Charlotte glanced at Matilda again, and now her expression had become completely cold, "Okay, good, then you can live with your delusions and dishonor, if you want......"

It's not delusional, just now I was in the same room with your husband and had some fun.

Matilda's face flushed slightly, but at last she said nothing, and watched the domineering lady leave with a mixture of jealousy and pity.

Under the care of Her Majesty Queen Carona, Charlotte continued to accompany her on the small boat to enjoy the scenery next to her, but although she appeared to echo and compliment Her Majesty, her heart had drifted to other places, and she seemed a little distracted.

Matilda's conversation with her rang in her ears over and over again, making her feel very annoyed and angry, but also extremely uneasy, and always feeling unsettled.

It was with great difficulty that she managed to get Her Majesty over, and when the boat docked again, Charlotte immediately said goodbye to Her Majesty, and went straight to Charles' bedroom in the Château de Fontainebleau.

This lavishly furnished bedroom was originally the residence of His Holiness the Pope, and when Charles arrived, he unceremoniously took it for himself and lived here for a long time.

When Charlotte came to the room, Charles was taking care of his business, but he instinctively noticed that something seemed to be wrong with his wife's mood.

"Charlotte, what's wrong with you?" He looked at each other curiously, but he was secretly a little worried in his heart, afraid that his wife would really find out what clues he had just done about the absurdity.

"Charles, what are you busy with today?" Charlotte's expression was a little inscrutable, and it was impossible to see any clues. "Is it those things in Spain?"

"yes, that's pretty much what happened in Spain." Charles nodded immediately. "These Spaniards are a bit of a headache."

Alphonse de Rotheschild had come to visit him at the Château de Fontainebleau, and had told him that the Rotthilde family had obtained the right to build and operate the Spanish railways, and asked Charles for his support, and Charles immediately agreed to help them if they did it.

The Rothheard family was very efficient, and soon did it, finalizing the railway with the Spanish government, and then taking their documents to ask for the support of the Charles. So Charles has been busy with this matter for a while, and wants to send a large group of railway engineers and related people to the territory of other countries, which is not clear in a sentence or two, especially now that the Spanish government is still very chaotic, and the order in various places is not peaceful.

Charles has been busy with this matter for a while, and Charlotte certainly knows it, but she hasn't been particularly concerned about it before, so Charles is now a little strange why the other party suddenly asked about it.

"Your headaches are actually some coordination problems, right?" Charlotte asked calmly, "It's all the little things that are stumbling your hands and feet." ”

"That's right! It's just some small things, but the most troublesome thing is this kind of little thing, especially when we have to deal with a group of mediocre people! Charles nodded, "The procrastination and sluggishness of the Spanish government have convinced me that it is not for nothing that this empire has fallen from its position hundreds of years ago to the predicament it is in today's predicament, and in my opinion, I am afraid that they will fall even worse in the future!" ”

"Then why don't you get out of this trouble? These little things will only take up your time. Charlotte smiled slightly, "Actually, most of these things are coordination work, as long as there is a competent person to help you coordinate, it can save you a lot of trouble, right?" ”

"That being said...... But it's not that simple, this is a deal between two governments, and people who don't have enough status can't handle it even if they are powerful. Charles sighed, "There are enough people of sufficient status and ability, we have too few people here, and they may not be willing to bother with such things......"

"How about letting your old boss do it? You can make him a commissioner or something, and be in charge of the Empire's railways in Spain. Charlotte said as if casually, "He is a former minister and a current veteran, is his status enough?" Plus, he doesn't have much to do now. ”

"Let him go to Spain?" Charles was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh. He ...... He? ”

This earl is not a man of many.

"Isn't it enough for him to be in a position? As for not being able to do things, you can ask someone else to help him......" Charlotte gave him a blank look, "He is so obedient, you have to reward him." ”

"That's right......" Charles thought for a moment, and felt that Charlotte's words made sense.

The Count of Dillion had made a sacrifice for his glory, and he deserved some kind of compensation, and it was a good ......

"You can do it!" After thinking about it, Charles agreed, and then looked at his wife happily, "Charlotte, you're amazing!" ”

"Then let his daughter go to Spain as an assistant." Charlotte said as if casually, "Aren't you worried that he is not capable enough to be competent?" I think his daughter seems to be very powerful, if he let his daughter go with him, he will have status and ability, and the family can also make a lot of money from here, and you can also compensate them for the losses they have suffered for you before...... Don't forget, they're already on your side. ”

Charlotte actually makes sense, after the evolution of the times, the status between the family of the Count of Delier and the Charles has gone from superiority to equality, and now, in fact, they have been below him, and the family is also serving him in different ways. Indeed, he should find a way to gain benefits for the family.

But...... Let Matilda go to Spain?

"No, no, I can't do that!" Charles blurted out. (To be continued.) )
