Chapter 057: The Assassination of a Celebrity 2
Sunlight refracted into the room through the multicolored glass, and Rose looked at a purple shadow on the ground.
"Miss Elena, Miss Leah wants to see you." The maid's voice came from outside the door.
"Let her in."
"Sister, long time no see. I'm sorry my brother said that to you, but I want you to know that that's not what our family meant. "Leah has always been gentle, but she usually succumbs to Ivan.
"I know, Leah, how is it going, has anyone mentioned marriage to you again?"
"No, they said that something had happened to the Nerins, and now their family is too busy with Alika's business to care about anything else.
Sister, you know, right? I remember you said before you left that you were going to Miss Alika's banquet in the Southland. ”
Leah tilted her head, long eyelashes that half-hid the fear in her eyes.
Rose smiled and patted her head and said, "Don't be afraid, my sister, just remember that you will always be my sister, and with me, you don't have to be afraid of anything." ”
Leah looked at the rose, showing a sweet smile of relief, she wanted to hug the rose, just opened her arms, retracted it, looked at her a little crampedly, and then bowed and went out.
Rose looked at Leah's back, and remembered that when she came back from the South, the eyes of the people up and down the manor looked at her like a monster, and only this little sister hugged the doll and said a lot of things around her.
Later, she learned that what Leah said back then was "Sister, you're back, sister, your eyes are as beautiful as grandma." ”
There is only one woman in the family who has purple eyes, and that is Rose's grandmother, and the family does not know that her father is actually of mixed race, and her grandmother also has violet eyes.
So in the family, she is the only one with the same beautiful eyes as her grandmother. When Rose first returned to the Northland, she was only twelve years old.
Until the age of twelve, she lived with her grandfather in the mountains of the southern country, and her father and mother were handling part of the business in the southern country, and Rose became the only child in the family to be born in the southern country.
My grandfather was lonely for many years, and after his only son married the daughter of a nobleman from the north, he followed his father-in-law and rarely returned.
Rose should have been born in the north like her other sisters, but she was born in the south and was left behind by her grandfather.
Later, the grandfather and grandson lived in the deep mountains of the southern country, and the grandfather was a stubborn warrior, in his eyes, people should not only serve a skin, so he hated pleasure and money, and devoted himself to martial arts and other things.
Rose grew up beside him, without anyone around him, and without the childhood that any child should have.
She won't cry when she's sad, and she won't laugh when she's happy. My grandfather had a straight face all the year round, and my father and mother didn't let her see her if they wanted to.
As a child, Rose often wondered who the couple who were crying through the door wept, and later she learned that not every child's childhood was only farming and martial arts.
Her grandfather taught her a lot about how to be a human being, but she never met anyone else. taught her a lot of self-defense skills, but she didn't have a place to use it except for fighting her grandfather.
When Rose was twelve, her grandfather told her that he was running out of gas, so she put herself on a haystack and set it on fire.
The fire burned for days and nights, and the rose knelt beside her, not a drop of water.
The people at the bottom of the mountain rushed to follow the firelight, thinking that the mountain forest was on fire, and when they arrived, they found the girl who had fainted.
Rose thought that she had no relatives, but she didn't expect that the police station at the foot of the mountain not only knew her and her grandfather, but also knew her other relatives.
After my grandfather was buried, my father took Rose back to the North. Grandpa once taught you to be a useful person to your benefactor, and my father saved him and smiled at the rose, so that's the benefactor.
Growing up, Rose had never seen anyone smile, and the first thing she saw when she opened her eyes after fainting was her father, who smiled apologetically at Rose.
Rose had never seen such an expression, and did not understand what he meant, but felt more joy in her heart than ever before.
After returning to the Northland, Rose found that she was out of step with this world.
They wore beautiful clothes, said strange things, never went to farm, and they didn't have to cut wood.
After Rose came, her tutor taught her the lessons before middle school and taught her to learn Northern Chinese, which she learned quickly but did not like to speak.
Because as she understood more and more content, she found that her mind changed more, she needed to read words and looks, and every move of others was imprinted in her heart, but she was at a loss.
The only one in the family who took the initiative to look for her was her little sister Leah, who never said that she was poor, did not look down on her lack of tableware, and did not laugh at her clumsiness in dancing in a dress.
Leah would give her the doll, though Rose never understood what such a simulated figure could be used for.
There were often guests in the manor, and whenever this happened, she stayed in the house and did not see anyone.
It's not that she doesn't dare to meet, it's that she doesn't like to meet, and when she sees everyone, she has to greet everyone warmly, even though they rarely really care about whether they are doing well with each other.
Hypocrisy was her first impression of the people in the manor. Even more annoying than hypocrisy is discrimination, which mainly comes from the boys of the clan.
The housekeepers who took care of the etiquette and daily life said that as a girl of the Ivan family, she should not talk back to any man in the family.
Rose disagrees and asks if it's their fault, and the butler replies that you have to be polite even if it's their fault.
Rose has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and her temperament is as eccentric as her grandfather.
The butler had said to be polite, but he had not said that they should not break their arms, so when one of the cousins of the family annoyed Rose, she politely broke his arm.
Her father wanted to punish Rose, but when he saw that she had no remorse, he asked her why, and she did not think she was at fault.
At that time, she told her father what her grandfather taught: "Treat others as they would have been treated." Treat a lady, I am also a lady; Treat a gentleman, I am also a gentleman; Treat warriors, I am also warriors; Treat the villain, and I will also be the villain. ”
Her father looked into her beautiful eyes and was speechless for a moment.
From then on, the boys in the family did not dare to provoke him again, and the older girls in the family were afraid of her, the woman who even men feared.
Rose seldom took the initiative to speak to her elders, and when she saw it, she just saluted, and after saluting, she left with a smile.
She was eighteen years old when she met her uncle, and both of them liked to ride, and she often rode alone and in the most primitive way, through the northern country, to her uncle's country.
My uncle was a blacksmith who was skilled in crafting weapons that were rare in the world. Every time Rose came to him, the two of them rarely spoke, just striking iron together.
The northern country is very large, it is the largest country in the world, and the northern country is very small, and everyone will know about it if there is a little wind and grass in the upper class.
When Rose grew up, she realized that in this world, there are some things that cannot be solved, just like a locked door in front of you, if you don't open the lock, there is no other way to cross.
Unfortunately, you'll never be able to find the key to unlock the lock, so in Rose's eyes, the easiest way to get through is to smash the door.
She wants to block and smash whoever is on the way forward.
