Despite the fact that Anne. Frank cried as if he was very sad, but William, with his knowledge of the quirky girl, how could she really cry?

William observed carefully, and saw that Anne was covering her eyes, and there were no tears in the corners of her eyes, and he also removed his hand from time to time to look at William, and he knew that it was Anne who was doing something funny.

After pretending to cry for a while, Anne saw that William was unmoved, so she simply put down her hands, raised her head with her hands on her hips, and said with a cold snort: "Hmph! You stinky William, do you have any sympathy! Seeing the beautiful lady crying sadly, you are amazingly ignorant of it, you are not a gentleman at all, a jerk, a jerk! ”

"Poof!" William covered his mouth and burst out laughing, but the smile on his face could no longer be stopped, even though he was holding back his laughter.

"Humph! You dead William, I'll ignore you anymore! Anne snorted, grimaced at William, and turned to leave.

"Annie!" When William saw Anne turn around and want to leave, his face was no longer smiling, and he grabbed Anne's hand with his right hand, pulled her into his arms, and said, "Anne! It's me who is wrong, please turn out that I'm okay? ”

"Bastard! Bastard! Bastard! Anne buried her head in William's arms, and a pair of small hands kept beating her chest, and said in an airish voice.

Anne's beating didn't hurt William at all, and in the face of Anne's complaints, William just hugged Anne tightly and didn't let go of her at all.

After a vent, Anne's emotions calmed down, and she stopped beating William's chest or complaining noisily.

As if ashamed of her actions, or by feeling William's burning breath on her cheeks, the red-faced Anne shrank shyly into William's arms, limp and limp, her little head pressed against William's chest to feel the sound of his powerful heartbeat.

William, who was holding the girl Anne in his arms, felt the two raised hills in front of the girl on his chest, and sniffed the wonderful body fragrance emanating from the girl's body on the tip of his nose, which was a charming milk fragrance.

Anne writhed slightly in William's arms, and accidentally touched William's little brother, who was already a little excited.

Anne, who threw herself in William's arms, suddenly felt that her lower abdomen was being pushed against a hard foreign body, raised her head to look at William, and said with a puzzled face: "William, what is on your body against me, take it away quickly!" ”

"Hehe... Hehe..."William sneered, looked at Anne awkwardly, and said nothing.

"Yikes!" Anne is not an ignorant girl who doesn't understand anything, looking at William's sneering expression, she instantly realized what she was holding on to herself, and Anne, who was flushed, pushed away William's arms with a 'ah', and took a few steps back with her hands on her chest.

"Annie, Annie! I didn't mean it, force majeure at this time, can you please forgive me? William's face was slightly embarrassed, and he reached out to grab Anne's arm, and asked Anne for forgiveness with a sincere face.

"Humph! You go away! Anne shook off William's arm and said with a face full of shame, "I don't want to see you again, huh!" ”

Anne turned around without looking back, turned on her horse, and rode away.

Looking at Anne's distant figure, William was a little reluctant, but he was not a child lover, he shook his head and scattered the thoughts of missing Anne, and his face turned into a little adult again.

"Steward Osborne, let's go back to the Duke's Palace!" William rode his horse to Osborne's butler, who was not far away, and said.

Steward Osborne pretended not to notice William's embarrassment before, and bowed down calmly and responded, "It's Young Master William." ”

William and Osborne's steward, a group of hundreds, set out again, all the way into the city of Rouen, through the lively neighborhoods, and finally in front of the hills on one side of the city.

This hill at the corner of the Rouen wall, near the canal leading to the Seine, is where the Château de Rouen is located.

No ordinary civilians dared to approach it, and the road leading to the castle winded around the mountainside, allowing only four people to pass through.

Built on the top of a towering hill, the Fort of Rouen, with its tall white walls, is the center of power of the Norman family, the Fort de Rouen.

After William and his party entered the castle and settled down, William turned around and instructed Osborne Butler, "Osborne Steward, I have a hunch that my father, Duke Robert, will return to Fort Rouen tonight, and I would like you to prepare a sumptuous dinner for my father." ”

"We're here to help, Master William!" Steward Osborne bowed and bowed, turning to leave.

.....

At night, in the mayor's official residence in the heart of Rouen, the candles in the study are still lit, and soft light shines through the windows.

More than a dozen candles burned on the huge disc chandelier and lit up the empty study, and the bright candlelight illuminated the face of the man sitting at the desk.

The middle-aged man was dressed in a tight-fitting and gorgeous costume, with gray black hair, a bald head, two provocative ears, a mustache between his nose, and the appearance of an eagle vulture.

"Father," Anne said cautiously with her head bowed in front of the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was none other than Anne's father, Otto. Frank, the president of the Rouen City Council, is also a die-hard member of the Count of Cay faction.

"Annie! How many times have I told you to have less contact with that bastard William, and not to have an intersection with this bastard. How many times do you have to say it before you can listen to me? "Otto. Frank tapped his right hand on the table, looked at Anne in front of him, and said loudly in hatred.

"Father, William is not what you think! He's a good guy and an upright man, so why can't I touch him and be with him! Anne stubbornly looked up at her father and retorted.

"Why don't you understand? Annie! "Otto. Frank said bitterly: "Our Frank family is a supporter of His Royal Highness the Earl of Kaye, and we are not the same as this illegitimate son William, and you can't be together in the end." ”

"Nope! I don't! Anne's eyes were fixed on her father, Otto, and she cried out.

Syllable...

Faced with Anne, who had not listened to the persuasion for a long time, the angry Otto Frank raised his right hand and slapped Anne hard.

In Otto. The moment Frank's right hand fell, he regretted it.

Looking at Anne's aggrieved appearance of covering her cheeks with her hands, Otto stretched out her right hand, looked like she wanted to say something, and said, "Anne, forgive Dad, I was impulsive..."

Not waiting for Otto. After Frank finished speaking, Anne covered her face with her right hand, looked up at Otto aggrievedly, the tears in her eyes kept flowing down, and said with a crying voice: "Dad, I hate you the most!" ”

Before Otto could explain, Anne ran out of the study crying.
