Chapter 1524 Handel's rampage
Looking at Elise's appearance, Lin Zichen knew that she had an idea. Smiling slightly, he knew what kind of pressure Elise was under at home. How desperate it is for Elise to marry someone she doesn't like, only she knows.
The reason why Lin Zichen proposed to play was also to take care of Elise's mood. Anyway, Lin Zichen has free time in the past few days, as long as the Draenor family has no action, he can wait for news here.
What's more, Lin Zichen also felt a little guilty about her because of his use of Elise, so he also wanted to take this opportunity to compensate her.
"Let's go to Longevity Village! Legend has it that there is a secret to longevity! Elise smiled sweetly and said to Lin Zichen.
"Longevity Village?" Lin Zichen was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect Elise to be interested in that place.
One of the five largest longevity villages in the world is in the Aegean Sea, on an island called Ikaria. There, the people of the village are generally long-lived, with an average age of more than 100 years, making it a magical village.
It's just that most of the people who live there are old people who are over half a hundred years old, and Lin Zichen is very puzzled why Elise likes to go to that place.
"When I was a child, my mother took me there once." Sensing the doubt in her eyes, Elise smiled softly, and the whole person fell into memory: "Mom said that we will live there in the future, carefree, and no one can disturb us." ”
Elise suddenly lowered her head and said in a choked voice, "I didn't understand my mother's words before, but now I do." ”
Looking at Elise, whose voice was choked, Lin Zichen didn't know what words to use to comfort Elise. This is the case with women in large families, few of whom are able to pursue the happiness they desire.
The joint marriage between the big families makes the families of both parties stronger. Political marriages have always been sad, but no one can eliminate them. Happiness can only be a luxury for the women of these big families.
As soon as they entered the wealthy family, some people desperately wanted to squeeze into the wealthy family, but when they finally squeezed in, they missed their previous life.
Presumably the same is true of Elise's mother, or that her mother means something else.
Zeus's confidante, in order to protect the man's bloodline, could only be forced to marry Handel. Although it is only a marriage on the surface, it is used to cover up her identity, but it is not an insult to her?
The last Zeus died, and Athena's family was hunted down endlessly. Their mother had experienced this kind of life, so she wanted Elise to live an ordinary life, a carefree life in this world.
"I admire your mother." Lin Zichen took a breath and said solemnly. One can imagine how difficult it is for a woman to be able to protect her two children to that extent.
"Yes, my mother has always been very gentle." Elise smiled at Lin Zichen reluctantly, tears streaming down the corners of her eyes: "Although Dad never came home at that time, Mother didn't blame him. Instead, he patiently told me that my father was like this for the sake of this family, and asked me not to hate him. ”
Elise's words made Lin Zichen pout in his heart, how could he be worthy of Elise's mother with Handel's appearance. Lin Zichen estimated that someone must be behind them to help them, but Handel was afraid of the force behind him and didn't dare to have any thoughts about Elise's mother and daughter.
But Handel is also quite pitiful, there is a beautiful girl at home who can't move, so she has to look for stimulation outside, and he is quite aggrieved as a man. It's a pity that in this world where big fists are the truth, no one will pity him.
"You get some rest first." Lin Zichen smiled slightly, touched Elise's little head and said, "I'll take you to Longevity Village tomorrow." ”
"Really!" Elise's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly, "I'll go and rest immediately." ”
After saying that, he hurriedly ran upstairs. Lin Zichen looked at Elise's back and smiled in his heart, he really hoped that this kind-natured little girl would always be so happy and happy.
Seeing Elise's smile, Lin Zichen suddenly understood why Athena was working so hard.
Elise had a good night's sleep at Lin Zichen's place, but her family exploded. In the morning, when the maid went to bring food to Elise, no one opened the door after knocking for a long time. When she opened the door, Elise's room was empty.
Quickly told Handel the news, and Handel was completely furious.
He didn't expect Elise to run out again, the last time was fine, there were people around him who watched Elise's every move, but this time he completely lost control of Elise.
"Bastards, what are you eating! I can't even look at a woman! He slammed the goblet on the table to the ground, and Handel's face was filled with anger.
In a few moments, Odeco was about to come to discuss the engagement banquet, but Elise was not present at this time, how could this be discussed?
The most important thing is to be ashamed! Because of Elise, he has lost face. He thought it would be fine to lock Elise in the room, but he didn't expect Elise to run away!
"My lord, Draenor and Odd have arrived at the door." At this moment, his butler walked in from outside the door and said to Handel.
"It came so quickly." Handel's face was sweating, and he hurriedly said to the butler, "Let them in." ”
"Hehe, Handel, we're here to discuss the engagement feast." Just then, Odd's voice rang out, and Odd walked in with Draenor.
Draenor stayed in the hospital for two days, the swelling on his face disappeared quickly due to the expensive medicines, and he couldn't see any signs of being beaten, so he looked in front of the mirror for a long time and made sure that there was no problem before he went out with confidence.
This time he had to get Elise, not only because of the position of the head of the family, but also because of the power behind Elise. As long as he marries Elise, Handel will definitely support him behind his back, and even if someone opposes him when he becomes the head of the family, Handel will also be one of his hole cards.
"Odd, nephew Delaenau, you're coming so fast." After seeing the two of them, Handel smiled bitterly, his voice full of helplessness.
"Of course we will take the engagement seriously." Odd smiled slightly, then looked around, and asked suspiciously, "What about Elise, why isn't she there?" ”
In the face of Odd's opening point, Handel couldn't even delay time, so he could only tell the truth: "Elise's girl has escaped." ”
"Ran away again?" A hint of dissatisfaction appeared on Odd's face: "Handel, what's going on?" ”
"This morning, while the servant was delivering the meal, he found that Elise was not in the room. But don't worry, I've sent someone out to look for it, and I'm sure I'll find it soon. Handel looked at Odd, who had an ugly face, and hurriedly said.
"Handel, we're old friends. You should know that my son doesn't have to marry Elise! Odd's face immediately turned pale, and he yelled at Handel.
Handel's face changed, and he was naturally dissatisfied with Odd's tone, but he could only bear it if he was at a loss in this matter.
"Dad, don't blame Uncle Handel just yet." At this moment, Draenor on the side spoke, "Uncle Handel, do you know the exact whereabouts of Elise?" ”
"It's not clear yet." Handel smiled bitterly and said, "She's learned to be smart this time." ”
"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Draenor sneered, "Elise doesn't have the ability to hide from so many guards in the courtyard. ”
"Nephew Delaenor, you mean I hid Elise?" Handel's face became annoyed when he heard Draenor's words, even if he was responsible, it was impossible for people to point their noses and scold.
"Hehe, Uncle Handel, I didn't mean that." Draenor saw that Handel's face was wrong, and hurriedly explained: "Of course I believe Uncle Handel, but I know that Tony came out of prison not long ago. ”
"The man who got so close to Elise?" Handel was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted.
"Uncle Handel, I'm sure you really want to work with us, but this guy named Tony ......" Draenor didn't finish, but the meaning of the words was sure everyone could understand.
"Hehe, of course I know that." Handel sneered and said, "Of course I won't let him ruin our cooperation, don't worry, Nephew Delaenau, Elise will definitely be your wife." ”
"I'm relieved to have my uncle's words." Draenor smiled slightly and said, "Then I'll wait for good news from my uncle." ”
After Odd and Draenor left, Handel's face immediately turned pale.
"Butler." Handel shouted outside the door.
"My lord, what's the matter?" The butler hurriedly walked in through the door.
"Send some more men to find Elise, and the man named Tony, I don't want him to live in this world." Handel looked at the butler and said coldly.
"Yes, sir." The butler nodded, turned and walked out.
Outside the manor, Odd looked at the bodyguards who were dispatched and asked suspiciously, "Son, don't we have to look for Elise?" ”
"No, it's enough to let Handel go by himself." Draenor sneered and said, "We have other things to do, we don't have to pay attention to these, with Handel doing it for us, we will be much easier." ”
"Son, the people in the family are very dissatisfied with what happened to you this time." Odd hesitated and looked at Draenor worriedly.
"Those old bastards!" Draenor's face turned ugly: "They think I have lost the face of the Draenor family, and I will settle this account sooner or later!" ”
After speaking, Draenor looked at the bodyguards operating outside and said softly, "First of all, we must deal with those other voices in the family, and then Tony." ”
At the mention of this name, Draenau's handsome face turned hideous: "I must let him die!" ”
