Chapter 33: Viscount Goode (Part II)

The next morning, mist shrouded the day.

Elizabeth quietly left, with dazzling diamond stud earrings, Viscount Goode went to work at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on time, as if nothing had happened last night.

Jumping from a tree, Bill returned to the newspaper to report that he continued to be busy with moving, buying a house would not be fast, and he would always have to pick and choose to find the most suitable home.

Under the gray sky, no killers appeared, no one was looking for trouble, although I was once confused and lonely, and there was no place to go, but I was lonely for a long time, and I was indifferent for a long time, and I got used to it.

When you are depressed, relax with something that stimulates the nerves, and you will no longer feel uncomfortable.

It's business as usual in Brittus, and in the village near Smoggen Manor, a funeral is underway.

In the forest on the north side of the village, the crowd is sparse, and the village chief is wearing a black coat, holding a cross, and praying for the dead with words of mourning in his mouth.

The villagers are poor and they can't afford to hire a priest.

"Death is not a sad thing, our physical death, our soul is in heaven, we should be happy and happy. ”

"Whenever there is a physical death, please do not grieve for it, please rejoice for it, it is parting with us for a while, and one day, we will meet it again. ”

"Ignorant don't ask why, when God calls, I will go home......"

John followed the carpenter to the cemetery, his expression was in a daze, his mind was blank, and he couldn't believe what was happening.

The villagers crossed their hands under their noses and prayed with the village chief, and when the prayer was over, they saw John and came forward to comfort him.

"John, a man cannot be resurrected from death, and mourning is a change. ”

"John, you're coming back late, maybe it wouldn't have happened if you had come home a few days earlier......"

"John, your mother is a kind person, and she will be happy in the other world. ”

"John, look away......"

The villagers patted John on the shoulder, and they saw John's unbelievable face and sighed one after another, John loved his family very much, and it was obvious to all.

When the simple coffin was about to be put to the grave, John finally reacted, shook off his comforting palm, his face was full of sorrow, and pushed away the burial person.

Get on your knees.

"It's not true......"

"Mommy, Mommy, she hasn't waited for me to come back!"

"She hasn't enjoyed ...... yet"

"Mom's ......"

Sadness enveloped the man, he held the coffin, his heart was like a boulder, he had difficulty breathing, his eyes were hot, and tears were flowing freely.

Suddenly, he saw a woman standing beside the village chief.

In John's eyes, she was still so beautiful and moving, with delicate makeup on her face, her hands were a little rough, and her brows were slightly wrinkled.

Mina looked away from John, and her prayerful hands trembled slightly.

"Mina!"

John rolled and crawled, hugging Mina tightly.

Hold on to the only support.

"Mina, how could Mom, Mommy, Mom suddenly ......"

"I've made money, I've made a lot of money, and I can bring you the life you want!"

"But why did it turn out like this?"

"Sue, tell me, why is this happening!"

John was agitated and suddenly shouted, Mina trembled even more, and she tried to push John away, swallowing her saliva, her voice full of unease.

"Johan, John, you're not writing to say that you got a job out there, and it might be a few years before you come back. ”

"Mommy, she ......"

"That's when I came home from the manor that day, I saw my mother lying on the ground, no longer breathing. ”

Mina spoke slowly, but John was already immersed in pain and didn't hear the emotion in his words.

When Mina confirmed the news of his death, he wailed and wept, tears gushing out, wetting his clothes, and the cry echoed in the mountains and forests, and he could not stop crying.

Anyone could see his sadness.

It was getting late, and only John and Mina were left in the cemetery, and John sat in front of the tombstone, silent.

Watching the cemetery lose its light and become eerie, Mina's heart was furious, and her eyes were erratic.

"John, let'sβ€”let's go home. ”

Seeing that John didn't respond for a long time, she took a few deep breaths, Mina sat behind John, wrapped her cold hands around her waist, and whispered in his ear.

"Honey, go back, I'm a little cold. ”

"You know, I'm afraid of the dark, it's too scary here, we'll come back tomorrow to accompany my mother, okay?"

A cold wind blew from the depths of the woods, and she tried to take John's hand and lead him away from the cemetery, and John was like a puppet, letting Mina move.

"By the way, my dear, you said you made money?"

"Before you go to bed later, tell me about what you see outside......

The moonlight was obscured by dark clouds, and John Mune nodded and walked slowly down the road.

The brain is blank and the tinnitus is still ringing.

Behind him, a pair of eyes glowed, staring at the man like a hungry wolf.

......

Tonight, Brittus is buzzing.

The central district is bustling with people, with well-known circuses praising the streets, clowns in Muppet costumes playing with children, and mist stained by gas lamps.

In the middle of the entertainment street, a crowd of horse-drawn carriages surrounded the Capital Theater, and several huge posters were hung around the amphitheater, with men and women on them.

Bill weaved through the crowd, and he followed Viscount Goode's carriage to the place, stopping in front of the theater.

Today, theater tickets are very difficult to get, and scalpers have already sold tickets more than five times.

"What kind of drama is going on tonight, so hot. ”

Bill asks the scalper, and although he knows the lace news, he doesn't know much about the popular elements of this era.

"You're a foreigner, aren't you?"

"I don't see the biggest poster, but tonight's show is starring Grace Shiryl, the queen of the theater, who is the goddess of all men!"

The scalpers shouted by their necks, and it was extremely noisy outside the theater, and the surrounding area was already full of horse-drawn carriages, and more horse-drawn carriages were crowded in and occupying the pedestrian streets.

Not only aristocrats and wealthy merchants, but even the church's carriage was a few of them, they were all Grace's avid suitors, and Viscount Goode was just one of them.

Bill hid in the crowd, observing the church members, this was the first time he had seen his destined opponent, but they were different from what Bill had imagined?

The missionaries were brightly dressed, walked into the theater with their friends from the nobility and wealthy merchants, and they were not at all serious compared to the masters of faith and the spokesmen of God.

"Are they really members of the Church?"

"Laughing so happily, is the church of this world a courtesan?"

Bill buys high-priced tickets from scalpers, as there are too many people and missionaries nearby, making it inconvenient to use the power of shadows.

The theater was already full of audiences, with the wealthy sitting in the VIP room on the second floor, and Bill sitting in the lobby on the first floor, keeping an eye on Viscount Goode and the missionaries.

The classic drama was staged quickly, the host announced the end of the curtain, the theater also quieted down, and the moment Grace appeared on the stage, the audience was a sensation.

Bill began to understand why people loved her so much.

She is indeed so beautiful that she is overwhelmed by all beings, her demeanor is elegant and sweet, her clothes are fashionable and sexy, and her eyes are full of sadness and pity.

The two-hour show was accompanied by enthusiastic applause from the fans at the curtain call, and wealthy businessmen even threw flowers and gold pounds directly onto the stage to express their love.

"Her acting skills are great, but no one seems to see her acting. ”

Bill was still keeping an eye on Viscount Goode and the missionary, and after the show, the audience dispersed and the second-floor VIPs poured backstage.

Waiting in the background, there are also reporters from major newspapers, and every move in the background is monitored by them.

Grace Shirley was surrounded backstage by a group of people who wanted to invite her over for dinner.

"Miss Shirille, I have prepared a fine wine and dinner, would you like to have dinner with me?"

"I'm sorry, Lord Edward, but I'm afraid I won't be able to have dinner with you. ”

The young nobleman sent an invitation to Grace, which caused dissatisfaction among the crowd, but Grace refused, otherwise the group would have killed Edward with his eyes.

"Miss Shirill, tonight the Princess's Princess's cruise ship will sail for a grand dinner, and I have exactly two tickets......"

"Miss Shirille, tonight is windy, it doesn't seem to be suitable for going out to sea, let's go to my house......"

"Miss Shirille, I heard you like ......"

After Edward's refusal, invitations were sent out and Grace Shirlill apologized to them, not agreeing to anyone's invitations.

"I'm sorry everyone, thank you for your love of me, but unfortunately I already have an appointment tonight. ”

Grace's words were full of apologies, and everyone was overwhelmed by her pitiful and charming eyes.

"Your Excellency Lord Goode, haven't you come forward to save the beauty heroically?"

Grace walked up to Viscount Goode, who smiled, took off his hat to apologize to the others, raised his eyebrows, and looked very helpless.

Viscount Goode escorted Grace out of the backstage, and the failed men were so angry that they struck the ground with their canes, gritting their teeth and looking as if they were going to kill him ten thousand times.

The news soon spread throughout Riters, and Viscount Goode seemed to have become a male enemy overnight.

Fortunately, they just went to the restaurant to eat, and Bill believed that if Viscount Goode and Grace spent the night, the group of star chasers would definitely do crazy things regardless of their identity.

As much as it was a mess, it didn't have any value to Bill.

On the third day, instead of attending the banquet or going home, Viscount Goode went to the central block, a well-located apartment building.

Apartment buildings are ideal for shadow surveillance.

Bill sat on a bench downstairs in his apartment, his shadow following Viscount Goode silently.

He saw a amorous woman, with her in the poster on the attic wall, who seemed to be Williams's favorite star, who had been out of fashion for years.

Heidi Andrea, although she is the same age as Viscount Goode, has no signs of age on her face, but has the charm of a mature woman, and her figure is unusually plump.

She is Viscount Goode's old lover, but as far as Bill knows, Viscount Goode is not the only man who keeps her.

"Your dear lord, you will come to me, I thought you had forgotten me. ”

Heidi was a little surprised to see Viscount Goode.

"Dear Heidi baby, I'm here to relax, I don't want to hear you complain. ”

Viscount Goude raised an eyebrow, and Heidi immediately took off his coat and hung it up, led him to lie down on the sofa, and brought out fruit and wine.

"Is it because you have encountered something unpleasant at work?"

"Annoying, I don't want to mention it. ”

"Don't be unhappy, you see that the wrinkles are all out, and you have a sad face, how can you please the female stars?"

Viscount Goode opened his mouth, and Heidi immediately brought the peeled fruit to his mouth.

"You're making fun of me again, they're not as understanding as you are. ”

"Every day there are reports that I climbed to my current position by relying on connections, look at those in our building, which one didn't rely on connections to get in?"

"It's just going to hold on to me!"

For the first time, Viscount Goode lost his temper in front of a woman, revealing exhaustion.

"They're jealous of you, young, tall, handsome. ”

"By the way, you haven't been shopping with me for a long time, I have my eye on a new dress, are you free on Sunday afternoon?"

Heidi pressed her fingers on her forehead and gently massaged him, and Viscount Goode frowned slightly and thought for a moment.

β€œ...... No, on Sunday afternoon, a troublesome woman pestered me, and I have to deal with it, but it doesn't matter much in the morning. ”

"I made an appointment with a private doctor in the morning. ”

Heidi pressed and shifted her hand downwards and began to untie herself.

"Then next time, have you been short of money lately, you rarely take the initiative to ask me for things. ”

β€œ...... The flowers are blooming outside, and I want to go out and walk around with you like a normal couple. ”

Heidi leaned against Viscount Goode's chest, and her voice was sweet and very docile.

"I see, let's do it next week. ”

"I'll tell the butler in advance that he'll give me a whole day to go out with you and buy whatever I want. ”

Viscount Goode smiled and turned over in an instant, Heidi leaned back against the sofa and was surrounded by Viscount Goode in the corner.

"Honey, you are so considerate~"

"This is what you deserve, you take this money and use it first, don't be wronged. ”

Watching Viscount Goode stand in front of the couch, clutching Heidi by the hair and pounding, and that mature, distorted face, Bill swallowed.

He seems to have a feeling?

This was Bill's first physiological reaction, and he had always thought that after all those things, he would no longer be interested in anyone.

"This body has no desire for Elizabeth. ”

"So Williams, this guy, likes mature moon Hun women?"

......

"Then ......"

"Let's find a woman to solve it. ”
