Chapter 174: The Castle and Camille

Previous Chapter

When Ted knocked on the door, Xingyue was wiping her damp hair.

"Found?" After Mu Lingyan let Ted in, he asked directly.

"Yes, Boss, I've investigated the relationship between Mr. Briss, the owner of Lumiu, and Camille." Ted said softly.

Hearing this, Xingyue wiped her hair and her hand.

I didn't expect Tedtech to do things so quickly.

Xingyue's hands trembled a little, but she didn't let Ted tell the story immediately, but waited until Yang Xueqi also came before letting Ted start.

Although they had roughly guessed that there must be that kind of friendship between Mr. Brice and Camille, they still wanted to know what it was.

Tedder told the three of them everything he had investigated.

It turned out that Mr. Brice and Camille had known each other at a young age.

Camille is the daughter of a carpenter, while Briss is a high-profile candidate for succession in the family.

It is said that at the best of years, Camille was a well-known beauty in the neighborhood, and although she was of humble origin, she had many suitors;

And Bliss lives in a privileged environment and is the most beloved teenager in the family; At that time, he smiled like a small sun, and his eyes were shining, as if they were full of stars.

When they were teenagers, the two were in love at that time, and they were destined to fall in love when they met for the first time.

But when they knew each other's identities, they knew that there was a huge difference in their identities and statuses.

But if you fall in love, you are in love, and there is no turning back.

Every time a young couple meets, they secretly meet behind their families' backs.

But the paper can't hold the fire, and the young people in love have a lot of flaws in their behavior, and they were finally discovered by the two families.

The carpenter fears that his daughter has been deceived by the eldest young master of a rich family; And the people of the Briss family even more disagree with the family children and grandchildren falling in love with a poor carpenter's daughter.

In order to stop the two young men from falling in love, the people of the Bliss family tried their best.

Bliss and Camille have eloped, hunger strikes, reasoned, and sworn poison, but none of them can shake the determination of the elders of the Bliss family to break off their relationship.

In the end, the young Bliss was directly grounded.

But what Briss couldn't forget in his heart was his lover, and finally bribed the guards and escaped.

After escaping, Brice eloped with Camille again.

The two kept running towards the south, and the farther they ran, the more likely they were to escape from the mercy of their families.

But God just won't let go of this poor couple.

Bliss fell ill.

The young master who has been worry-free about food and clothing since he was a child, and his body is weakly lying in Camille's arms.

Without money, Camille could not see a doctor for him.

But she couldn't sit back and watch the man she loved die like this, so she ignored Bliss's objections (in fact, it was useless, Bliss was too weak to walk on his own) and began to walk back with the seriously ill Briss.

Two days later, they met the Briss family, who had come to hunt them down.

Brice was taken away and taken to the best hospital of the time.

"It is said that when Briss was taken away from Camille, he was lying in the carriage, his eyes were momentary, just staring at Camille with tears, and his eyes were filled with resentment, reluctance, and incomprehension." Ted also told Mu Lingyan and Xingyue the details he knew.

Xingyue felt a pang in her heart.

Not being able to be with the person she loves the most, the heart-rending pain, she understands.

Bliss returned to the castle and was back to living a life of food and clothing.

But he also lost his vitality.

He stopped smiling so brightly, and the brightness in his eyes dimmed.

He studied more diligently and studied the management of their family's affairs more diligently.

He no longer rejects the family arranged drinking parties with the nature of blind dates.

He never mentioned the name Camille again.

In this way, the elders of the family thought that he had forgotten Camille, but they never waited for Briss to get married.

He never married.

This was his longest rebellion against his family.

"What about Camille?" Xingyue couldn't help but ask.

After that separation, Camille was also taken by the carpenter to live in another city. The people here haven't seen her again for more than ten years. ”

Then one year, Camille suddenly returned to her hometown, alone.

It turned out that the carpenter had died of an illness, and she had returned.

It's just that very few people know about her return, only a good friend of Camille's knows.

When she learned from a friend that Briss had never been married, Camille's heart was very complicated.

A friend and her friend's husband accompanied Camille to secretly build a wooden house in a very secluded corner of the seashore for Camille to live in.

Camille would make something for her friends to sell for her and buy some groceries and food.

"Camille lives by the sea, is it true that no one has found out?" Xingyue couldn't help but ask again.

"How could it be that no one found out, and then Briss's mother found out about Camille's existence."

At that time, the elders of the family had passed away.

Bliss brothers and sisters also got married and went to other cities to work and live.

Briss is the only one who is still a bachelor, a bachelor with a lot of money.

Briss's mother may have regretted breaking up Briss and Camille.

But the family rules could not be resisted, and Mrs. Briss did not drive Camille away, but she did not tell Briss about Camille, and warned the servants in the castle who knew about it not to talk nonsense.

And Camille also stubbornly kept the promise he made to the elders of the Bliss family when he sent Brice away: he would never see Bliss again in this life.

In this way, another few decades passed.

After the death of Camille's friend and husband, the servants of the castle have been helping Camille with her life, bringing her food and necessities.

would help her repair the cottage, but no one told Bliss everything.

Commitment is as precious as a thousand in their hearts.

"Mr. Brice, have you never been to the beach?"

Xingyue, who listened to the story, was already red-eyed at the moment.

If he'd been to the beach, he'd found that cottage one day, and he'd have seen Camille!

You will know that two people are alone with each other, and they still have a chance to be together!

Ted was silent for a moment.

"Camille loves the sea the most, and once said that he wanted to live by the sea. Mr. Brice never set foot on the beach again. ”

The nose is sore.

Xingyue remembered that Camille would habitually glance at the sea outside the house and the beach when she was doing things.

I don't know if every time she looks out, just to take a look at the sea, or if she's actually been looking forward to someone in her heart.

"On the walls of the seaside wooden house, there are a lot of reports cut from the newspaper, and the photos on them must have Briss there, so Camille must be so cherished." Xingyue sighed.

"I don't know how Camille has survived all these years. She lives near her lover, but she can't even see her, and her heart must be very bitter. Yang Xueqi has begun to cry.

"It must be so, that's why Camille is depressed and seriously ill." Xingyue's mood was also depressed.

"What about Briss? He fought against his family all his life, punishing his family by not marrying for life. If Camille had existed earlier, the story might have been a different ending. Mu Lingyan rubbed the top of Xingyue's hair.

"When Camille was taken to the hospital that day, I didn't think the people at the castle were reacting right. The doctor who went with me was very aware of Camille's condition at that time, and when the people of the castle packed the clothes that Camille needed, they also knew exactly where the wardrobe was placed, and I felt that something was wrong at that time, it turned out that they really knew about Camille's existence for a long time. Ted shook his head.

An embarrassing love story.

The four people in the room were silent.

After a while, I heard Yang Xueqi ask in a low voice: "You say, Mr. Briss, do you still love Camille?" ”

Ted thought for a moment: "It should be love." It is said that Mr. Bliss has never eaten onion soup for so many years. Because at the time of the last elopement, the money was tight, and bread was a luxury for them. Brice misses the food at home, and Camille, for the first and last time, makes him an onion soup. Not long after that time, Briss became seriously ill, and after that was separation. And the soup you made today, young lady, is said to be very similar to what Camille made back then. ”

I see.

The doubts in Xingyue's heart were finally solved.

No wonder Mr. Bliss would watch himself make onion chowder and offer to try it.

I learned my own recipes from Camille, and the matching of each spice also comes from Camille, so it will naturally have the same taste as Camille's.

Thinking about this onion bisque has a unique meaning not only for Mr. Briss, but also for Camille.

The difference is that Mr. Bliss chooses never to touch again; Camille, on the other hand, is often reminiscent.

"I met Mr. Bliss today outside the seaside cabin." Xingyue said.

Teddy nodded: "Actually, Mr. Bliss didn't come back this time to deal with the ownership of Lumiu's agency. Instead, the butler told him about Camille's death. He was on the other side of the ocean at the time, and when he heard the news, he immediately rushed back by private jet. After coming back, I went straight to the seaside cabin. ”

"But even then, he will never see Camille again, all he can see is an empty house and a cold tombstone." Yang Xueqi shook her head. "Two people who originally wanted to love with all their hearts missed out on their lives like this. Is it worth it? ”
