Chapter Seventy-Four: Love and Fate

While Charles and Albert were still grieving for their careers in the racecourse, there was another party at another famous spot in Paris.

At the edge of the Bois de Boulogne, at the brightest time of the day, the midday sun shines on the earth, but it is not blazing because of late autumn; At the edge of the forest, the cool breeze passes through the cracks in the woods, blowing on everyone, making almost every visitor feel refreshed.

In the midst of this cool breeze, two young girls strolled on the grass, as if enjoying the autumn scenery.

One is holding an umbrella and wearing a white dress, looking into the distance but seems to have been thinking about something; The other, dressed in a rich silk dress and with a high bun, walked beside her as if he were her close friend.

"You brought me here again this time, is there something wrong?" After the two of them walked in silence for a while, the girl with the umbrella asked in a low voice.

However, it seems that because of her poor spirits, there is not much curiosity in her voice, as if she no longer cares what the other party wants to say to her.

Perhaps because of the recent lack of sleep, she looked a little lacking in energy, her already slender figure was now thinner, her eyes were even bigger, and her face was as pale as snow, as if she had lost all her blood, and her blue pupils had lost their former glory. Such a beautiful and delicate but expressionless face is full of sorrow and sadness that does not belong to this age.

Even the hand holding the handle of the umbrella is as white and dazzling as the enamel of ceramic. But you can't feel the temperature.

If it were anyone else, seeing her like this now, would make me feel pity, right?

However, Miss Lola de Beauwon, who was standing next to her, did not think so.

On the contrary, she was a little happy about it.

Because. Her appearance represents one thingβ€”that is, the fiery feelings that the young girl has hidden in her heart have not yet been vented, and all her hopes have now been dashed, or rather, they are still being dashed.

Only in this way can it be used by me, right? She sneered inwardly.

"Miss Tremier. What do you think? Have you read the article I gave you earlier? Is it hard to figure out? Although she was happy in her heart, her expression and tone were still the usual indifference, and even showed a little concern in the right amount, "If you need to explain anything, just tell me." ”

"Hmm. I've read it and thank you. Fran nodded slightly, but her eyes were still on the distance. Moreover, there is nothing difficult to understand, and after reading it with Mary, I already understand a general idea. ”

As soon as she said this, she couldn't help but subconsciously look to the side.

That's right, Mary went out today because of something, and it was a maid who accompanied her out today. Of course, the maid did not have the courage to come to the side of the young lady and listen to this and that. So just stood from afar, watching the two of them talk. It is precisely because of this that Lola feels that the timing of today is too appropriate.

The other person's tone was weak and weak. Because of this, Lola felt even more uplifted.

"Oh, I'm sorry that I suddenly threw you such a large amount of stuff and it made you tired......" she apologized insincerely, "you don't have to be in such a hurry. After all, there is still a long way to go, and no one will directly put the burden on you. You can take your time...... I really feel a little sad to see you so haggard now. ”

"Are you emaciated?" Fran was a little surprised.

"Haven't you looked in the mirror?" Lola asked rhetorically. "I think you're almost ready to play the princess."

[At that time, theater actresses often had to spread a thick layer of white powder on their faces, and Lola's words were both compliments and jokes. 】

"Is it that powerful? When I look in the mirror, do I think it's okay? Fran was slightly surprised, and then smiled a little lonely, "Forget it, even if that's it, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter anyway, no one cares." ”

"It looks like you're worried about something, miss, can you tell me if it's convenient?" Lola asked softly. "If it's my fault, I can apologize to you."

"It's nothing, it's certainly not because of you." Fran immediately shook her head, "It's my own business, you don't have to worry about it, I'm fine." ”

"You're all like this, how can I not care?" Lola changed her usual indifference, her face was full of concern, "Wouldn't it be a pity if a beautiful flower like yours withered for some reason, I don't like to sit back and watch this kind of thing live." ”

"Nothing, really nothing......" Fran lowered her head.

"Don't be so rejected, miss." Lola still pressed step by step, "I think I'm still your friend's, how can I not care when I see my friend in trouble?" ”

"Thank you for your concern, really much appreciated. But please don't mind my business anymore, I'll have to take care of it myself. Fran frowned, then replied calmly, "Who can fully understand a person?" ”

Lola didn't speak anymore, and the two men stopped, and then fell into a strange silence.

Just when Fran thought that the other party had felt her rejection and finally stopped talking, Lola suddenly opened her mouth.

A smile bloomed on her face.

It's hard to tell if it's kindness or just that, but there's no doubt that this smile doesn't make anyone happy.

"Do you just want to suffer in silence yourself? Isn't that pitiful? I can't even stand it, Miss Tremier. What's the point of a person crying silently? ”

"What are you talking about?" Fran's pupils shrank suddenly, and she turned her gaze to look at Lola.

"Am I not clear enough? You're worried, and I know why you're worried. That's right, aren't you worried about love? Lola said to Fran unhurriedly, "Maybe others think you're just young and ignorant, but I know you. You are serious, you are giving all your love and loving that person without reservation. No matter how the literati ridicule us, we all know that a woman can only love once in her life. Although she may have had many romances. Oh, innocent, unreserved love, how great this love is! ”

After an exaggerated sigh, she changed her tone, one full of regret and sadness. "However, because of the tricks of fate. But you have to be distressed, sad, and hopeless for this one and only love. You bear the shackles it brings, but you don't enjoy its joys, you are trapped by it. I tried to find an exit, but there was darkness in front of me, darkness, bottomless darkness......"

"Say no more!" Fran's face twisted suddenly, and she shouted without any respect for her manners.

"What is it that makes you have to fall into such a horrible situation? It's not hard to see the answer......"

"Don't talk about it......"

"I'm right, Miss Treville...... "Lola continued, still nonchalantly, "why you're so distressed. It's because of you, in love with your ......"

"Smack!"

A heavy slap interrupted her words for a moment.

"What do people like you know!" Fran withdrew her hand. Then yell at the other person, "Is it fun to snoop on other people?" You don't have to worry about my business! Who are you to say about me? That's right, I just love him, what's wrong! ”

Despite being slapped in the face, Lola still smiled and continued to look at Fran.

Fran finished yelling. His whole body was trembling with excitement, and there were tears in the corners of his eyes.

It seems that I feel that I am too out of shape like this. After calming down, she sighed.

"I'm sorry. I'm not feeling well today, so I'm out of company. ”

"You're very energetic now, much stronger than just now." Just as she turned to leave, Lola suddenly said. "It's just a pity that why waste this spirit, this kind of action, on useless anger instead of action?"

Fran paused.

"What else do you want to say?"

"What I'm trying to say is simple, miss." Lola sneered and replied, "I definitely didn't mean to mock you, in fact, I was grieving for you. ”

"Heartbreaking?"

"Yes, when you, such a beautiful and intelligent girl, give all your love, but only get a secret crying ending, even I feel very distressed to look at it. Can you only accept the end of watching your brother marry someone else, leaving yourself behind, and then leaving yourself alone for the rest of your life? ”

Fran shuddered slightly, but she didn't get angry anymore. She closed her eyes softly, letting the tears slide down her side.

"Are you going to accept your fate? Just let YiqiΔ“ go to the end helplessly? ”

Not really! The girl shouted in her heart.

It was only then that Fran realized that there was something strange about this Mademoiselle de Beauwon.

After breaking her infatuation with her brother, she neither persuaded nor ridiculed, as if she was reproaching Fran for not letting fate take her toes.

What the hell is she trying to do?

"What do you want to say?"

"What I want to say is...... You are wrong. Lola replied in a low voice.

Are you still here to laugh at me? Fran sneered inwardly.

"Really? Maybe. ”

"But you're not wrong about falling in love with someone, even if it's your brother."

"Huh?" Fran turned around again in surprise. "What do you mean?"

"Do you know where you did wrong? Is it wrong that you shouldn't fall in love with your brother? Amusing! Lola looked at Fran coldly, her eyes seeming to shoot a piercing gaze, "What's wrong with that?" Talented people are born to be above the heads of ordinary people, how can the rules and regulations that bind them be used on the heads of geniuses? Love is love, what's wrong? Who has the right to stop you? No one! Do you want to sue yourself that you are a man of no talent, a mediocre mortal who survives on the wretched law? ”

"What the hell are you trying to say!?" Fran was completely confused by the other party's words.

"You did make mistakes, but only one one, and that was ...... Your love is on your knees and dedicated! ”

Fran's hand gripping the handle seemed to be working harder, and her fingertips were a little white. But she still looked at each other coldly, not saying a word.

"Love is to conquer, love is to take! It shouldn't be something that kneels down and begs! That's right, you knelt on the ground, considered yourself humble, and begged your brother to give you a little love, and the result? Hmph, isn't that obvious? No one will look down on a beggar, he has nothing to give you, you have nothing to get, you can only shrink into bed and cry under the quilt in despair! You must have cried many times, crying and asking why God had given you such a sad fate...... Is there anything more ridiculous than this scream? As if touched by something, Lola almost shouted, "Rules only make sense when they're good for us, don't they?" People who succumb to boring rules and fate, and therefore do nothing and do nothing, are the most ridiculous! ”

"So...... So...... So what! Fran couldn't hold back any longer, and roared at her in return, "I don't need you to teach me a lesson!" ”

"No, I have absolutely no idea of teaching you, Miss Treville......" Lola replied with a long delay.

Then, a smile appeared on her face again, "Because, although I am not trapped by love, I am also tricked by fate and trapped in a painful and unspeakable situation." Like you, if I do nothing, I will sink into it completely, and then I will be swallowed up in eternal darkness, and I will never see hope again, and I will never see the sun again...... That's right, what you fear the most, the dark quagmire that is worse than death. Because of this, I can truly feel your anguish and anger, and I hope that you can stand up and fight against your boring fate......"

"What do you mean?"

"The man who put me in this dark situation was my brother." Lola suddenly looked away and looked at the sky in the distance, "Of course, please don't misunderstand, I don't love him, and of course I don't hate him." I just ......"

She reached out and put her hand in front of her forehead, blocking out the stinging sunlight, "trying to pull away the stone that stood in the way." ”

At this moment, Fran's eyes widened.

Then, Lola laughed again.

"Miss Treville, let's make a deal, the two of us join hands and break the shackles of fate together, and then ...... We brought a brother for God, and we brought another brother for you......"

"What do you mean?" Fran didn't react for a moment.

"That's right, I'm going to kill my brother, and you can help me." Lola said without any emotion, "In return, I can work for you as your best friend and let you get what you want!" (To be continued)
