Chapter 290: He's Not a Sentimental Man
If I didn't have to participate in the competition soon, I really wanted to have more time and more opportunities, and ask for more advice from this respected senior in front of me, and I believe that there will be a lot of gains.
This world is indeed very wonderful, and if you don't face it with a skeptical attitude, the harvest is often full of surprises and touches.
Moreover, there is a different kind of ease with Mr. Fantasia, because for for him, there is no need to rack his brains to think about how to thank and how to speak beautifully. Mr. Vantaxia himself is not good at this, and he does not need it.
After studying, with excitement, it is enough to simply say "thank you", and he can fully understand and appreciate the surging feelings and gratitude in your heart, although his response is only to nod at you.
If you think about it, it's the same as Gray when you first met!
When I thought about it, I couldn't help but feel a faint sense of joy and tenderness in my heart, and I really wanted to see Gray right away and tell him all about this excitement.
Until leaving Monsieur Vantacia's studio, Shaida was still in a state of high euphoria, and even walked down the corridor humming the melody she had just heard, jumping lightly to the rhythm of the melody. At this moment, I suddenly heard someone calling softly behind me: "Miss Shaida! β
It's a female voice, not high-pitched, and it sounds very gentle. As she is rarely referred to as "Miss Shaida", Shaida feels uncomfortable and a little frightened.
She immediately restrained her movements, stood in an orderly manner, and when she looked back, she found that it was Angela's mother, Mrs. Ana Fantasia, who was standing not far away and looking at her with a smile, with an elegant temperament, dignified and demure.
Xia Ida then remembered where she was, and couldn't help but feel very embarrassed by what she had just forgotten.
Lady Anna, however, had no intention of resentment or reproach, and she seemed so amiable. When we first met, Shaida had a good impression of her - of course, she is Angela's mother, Angela is so cute!
Lady Anna approached and said softly, "Listen to Luke, you have been listening to music at Joseph's place, and you must be hungry at such a late hour." I've prepared some refreshments over there, and I'd like you to come over and have a chat, but I don't know if it's okay? β
Shaida didn't feel the hunger at all, to be exact, there was no attention to be given to such a thing. At this moment, as soon as she was reminded, her stomach actually screamed angrily, which made her blush slightly.
Even if it wasn't because she was hungry, Angela's mother's invitation would never have been refused.
Anna led the way and took Shaida directly to her room.
The room is very large, and there is even a private small living room, where very delicate refreshments are placed, and even the food utensils are very exquisite, which makes people very appetizing when they look at it. The small living room is elegantly furnished and looks like a place for family members to sit together and chat and drink tea, or only very close guests can be invited here.
With such an imagination, Xia Yida even felt a little flattered.
But Mrs. Anna Vantaasia did not make the little girl feel inconstrained in this respect, and she smiled in a straightforward manner very different from her temperament, and said: "It is very good that you are a guest at home, and we are all very happy, and we are all happy for Gray. β
Shaida was stunned for a moment, and suddenly her face turned red.
It seems that he is really regarded as a person who has a special meaning to Gray, and I don't know what Gray told his family before he came back......
Shaida lowered her head and silently stuffed the various snacks that Anna handed her to her mouth to distract herself from getting redder. Anna looked at her and couldn't help but smile shallowly, as if she saw her younger self.
Each of the dim sum is exquisitely made and tastes great. When Shaida was in school, she had heard her classmates say that the people of the West Country, especially the people in the capital of the West Country, were serious and rigid, and even the food they cooked was poor and rough and unpalatable, and it seemed that this did not apply to the Vantacia Mansion in the West Country.
The delicious food, a slight feeling of hunger, and plenty of sugar and dopamine from chocolate quickly stabilized Shaida's mood, and remembering that she as a contestant did not have the right to eat more sweets, she consciously put down her snacks and began to drink tea.
The aroma of black tea makes the mind gradually calm and clear.
Mrs. Anna spoke to her in a pleasant tone at the right time.
We talked a lot about Kitanokuni's environment, school life, and Gray's residence, and the topics were both light and pleasant. Xia Ida already had a sense of affection for her, and at this moment the whole person was even more relaxed. It can be seen that Mrs. Anna is also very concerned about Angela's life in the first half of the North Country, so Shaida deliberately said more about Angela, and sincerely expressed her gratitude and praise to Angela.
This made the conversation between the two men more lively and speculative, and the topic became broader, and somehow they talked about Mr. Joseph Fantasia.
"Ida," Anna addressed Shaida as she unconsciously became closer, "don't blame Joseph, he's always been like this, not cold and unkind. Actually, he likes you very much, he just isn't very good at expressing it. β
Xia Ida nodded hurriedly. It was a wonderful feeling that what she had observed and felt was further strengthened and affirmed by others, and it deepened her respect and affection for Mr. Fantacia.
"This morning, Mr. Vantacia instructed me on the rhythm of the music and it helped me a lot with the dance!" She said quickly.
Anna smiled and said, "I was taken aback when I found out, this is not like his usual style. Soβlike Angela said, Ida, you're an incredible little girl! β
With that, Anna got up, opened a cabinet next to her, and came out with a large stack of things, and placed them in front of Shaida.
"What is this?" Shaida looked at the large pile of various paper documents and felt very surprised.
"It's proof." "It's what Joseph has collected over the years, and it has all the information he can gather about Grena's child." If you know what happened in the past, you must think that Joseph has some affection for the child, but he is not a kind of person, on the contrary, he has been living a very miserable life. β
As she spoke, Anna pushed the items on the table to Shaida's side: "I thought, maybe you will want to see these things too, so I ...... on my own initiative."
It was only then that Shaida saw that there was a pile of things, including magazines, newspaper clippings, videotapes with Gilgamesh's masked silhouette on the packaging, and even photo albums and more precious materials that could not be imagined.
Through those objects, it seems that the twists and turns of Gray Fantacia's past and fate can be seen.
