"Althea, this matter ...... Listen to me......"

Marlon knew that he could not remain silent any longer, so he broke free of Tiffany's arm, walked up to Althea, and took her hand in distress, trying to comfort the sad girl. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Althea wanted to fall into Marlon's arms and cry - she had been waiting for Malone for more than half a month, worrying about his safety every day, and practicing hard to be able to help Malone more, not to be drunk when they met again.

But Althea didn't do that, she felt that she should be strong, especially at this time, in front of this "Miss Tiffany".

"Miss Tiffany, what do you mean by that? Marlon is obviously my lover, why did he become your fiancé? ”

Althea ignored Malone, and despite the cold hands she was now holding at the other hand, she summoned up her courage and dignity to confront the strange lady Tiffany, who wanted to take her lover away from her.

"I'm wondering too...... Marlon and I got engaged when we were very young, and the entire upper nobility of Stormwind City knew about it...... His Majesty King Lane is the witness of our marriage contract, and Marlon and I are each other's nieces and sons-in-law recognized by Marshal Anduin Lothar and my father...... I don't think my identity needs to be questioned anymore, but Miss Althea, you...... What's going on with Ma Long? ”

Tiffany unceremoniously retorts - she has moved out a few of the big names of Stormwind to back her up - and even though Stormwind no longer exists, she believes that even the people here will not turn a blind eye to King Ryan Ureon and Marshal Anduin Lothar.

……

"Enough! Tiffany! Say no more! ”

Marlon could feel Althea's hands in his hands getting colder and colder, and the shiver in the girl's body became more and more obvious; This made him a little unbearable for Tiffany's sharp words, so he rudely interrupted Tiffany's words.

But Malone's interruption came a little late, Tiffany had already said everything she wanted to say, and Althea knew everything she wanted to know - even if it wasn't what she wanted.

"Horse ...... Malone, she said it...... Is it all true? ”

Althea raised her head, looked at Marlon, and asked in a voice that was so desperate that her heart trembled, her eyes filled with tears, and crystal teardrops continued to flow from the corners of her eyes, rolling down her smooth cheeks to the cheeks, shaking.

"No, not exactly. Althea, listen, it's complicated, if you believe me...... No, you have to trust me, I'll explain it to you, okay? ”

Malone gently squeezed Althea's little hand with one hand, and then wiped the tears from the girl's face with the fingertips of the other hand.

There were so many teardrops that Marlon couldn't wipe them all away, but it turned Althea's delicate face into a flower-faced cat.

"Uh-huh, uh-huh......"

Althea was still sobbing quietly, but she heard the firmness in Malone's words - she wanted to trust her lover despite some hesitation and helplessness - she had never felt so secure in another man except her father, so even though she knew something was wrong, she ...... Or want to believe what you want to believe.

"I ...... I'll go back first, I'll wait for you in Marlon your room, I'll ...... I'll go first......"

Althea lowered her head, pulled her hand out of Marlon's palm, rubbed her red eyes wildly, and stumbled away and ran towards the center of Nighttown.

Despite choosing to believe in her lover, the confusion in Althea's heart is now beyond words; She just wanted to run away from here, from the eyes of all the familiar and strange people around her, from the proud and confident Miss Tiffany in front of her—she didn't even look back at the sudden appearance of the "rival in love", because Althea was afraid that she would waver, that her last ounce of extravagance would be vanished by the unmistakable expression of the other.

"Althea ......"

Malone didn't hold back the girl who ran away in a panic - he already felt the puzzled gazes around him; These glances made his face a little confused, not to mention Althea, the frightened fawn-like girl, who was really not fit to stay here any longer.

……

"You're satisfied now?"

Malone turned around and said to Tiffany with some anger - he had a premonition that something like this would happen - that the inhabitants of Nightlight knew about his relationship with Althea just as the inhabitants of Mooncreek knew that Tiffany was his fiancée.

Now that the survivors of the orc invasion will gather together, the matter will sooner or later be exposed to Althea - but Marlon wants to do it in a more gentle way, and Tiffany's initiative has made his plan come to naught.

"I'm just stating the facts. I'm not going to lose to her. ”

Tiffany felt a little frustrated—she could see how much Marlon cared about the girl named Althea; But she still said it hard - she thought she still had an advantage.

"You...... Paul, you and Daddy Ellro have organized for everyone to get the wounded and supplies off the ships as soon as possible, so that Uncle Richard can see if there is any way to hide them from the other side...... The goblin captives were tied up and locked up in the cellar, and I ...... I'll go find Althea first. ”

Malone ignored Tiffany and turned to Paul and ordered.

"Got it, Chief Lothar."

Paul nodded and handed Malone a color to reassure him.

Malone did not pay much attention to Paul's gesture, and his heart was a little flustered, so he hurried out of the place and ran towards the center of the town; The silver-white wolf Rubes tilted his head to look at his master's back, and then trotted to follow—of course he didn't know what was happening, but he knew that his master wasn't in a good mood right now, so he decided to behave better.

"Malone! Wait for me! ”

Tiffany bit her lip - she didn't feel comfortable leaving Marlon and Althea alone right now; So, after a short trade-off, she stomped her feet and chased after the back of Marlon, who was about to disappear from view.

……

"Hey, Sir Lothar! Feed...... Paul, what's going on? How did Sir Lothar get another fiancée in the Wild West? And what about Althea? What is she? ”

Elo Eberlock shouted at Malone twice, but failed to call him back, so he turned to Paul and asked loudly.
