Chapter 499: Gentleness is really an illusion

Listening to the well-trained maid recount the news without any emotion, and thinking that she would have to attend the Raphael's banquet at the same time as Camilla in two days, and Winnie would also be there, Luna wanted nothing more than to bang her head against the wall.

How can I break it if I don't want to go at all?

Especially her cousin, it's obvious that she is not the material for opening a fish pond!

Living to this day, in two lifetimes, Luna has not seen a fish pond for more than 30 years, and it has only been open for a few days, and she has turned her stomach into Shura Field!

In addition, now Berg has been grounded by his grandfather, who has always loved him, and another teenager is recuperating at home because of a big fight with Berg.

Even though the aristocracy has always been subtle and many things are not put on the surface, Luna can still expect the strange stares cast by the people around her when Camilla huddles around her during the banquet.

And this is not the most depressing, what is even more depressing is that whether it is out of her own upbringing, or out of the maintenance of the Zusterling family, it is impossible for Luna to expose the internal contradictions of the family to others and let the nobles of the whole city see the jokes.

In other words, even if she can be relatively cold to Camilla, but if something really happens, she still needs to come forward to defend her, and whether it is Berg's mother or the mother of another teenager who clashed with Berg because of Camilla, it is not a good stubble!

And through these rumors, Luna also suddenly understood that the reason why Fleming did not remove Camilla from the invitation list should not only be for the sake of the friendship between the two families, but also for the sake of her son.

Or rather, although he said it politely, he was actually gritting his teeth to help the Sterling family and his own family solve the siege.

After all, although Carlos is occasionally mentioned in these rumors, there is nothing too substantial, most of them are rumors that Carlos helped Camila out of the siege at the banquet.

From this point of view, Fleming probably doesn't want to confirm the fact that there is a relationship between Carlos and Camila that goes beyond the basic friendship, and also wants to weaken the rumors that Camila has been torn between three teenagers at a young age, after all, the matter of two males competing for a female is actually not uncommon among young boys and girls who are just beginning to fall in love.

Thinking about this calmed Luna's irritable mood a little.

However, judging from Luna's understanding of Carlos, who grew up together, those rumors about him and Camilla are still exaggerated, and it is estimated that even Fleming thinks too much.

Others may not know, but the few people who grew up with Carlos actually know that although it seems that Carlos has been spinning behind Timmy and Jack's butts since he was a child.

But in fact, most of the time Carlos is taking care of Jack and Timmy, and as long as they are there, the two rarely get into a head-on confrontation, which sometimes even Luna laments.

Later, Timmy and Jack ran all the way to Secondary 2, and Carlos gradually put more energy into his studies.

Although the relationship between the three is the same as always, as far as Luna, who has been helping Jack and Timmy clean up the mess all year round, there is no trace of Carlos among the people who have been in trouble in the past few years.

What's more, there are some minor troubles, and when Luna is still far away in the manor and has no time to rush back to deal with it, Carlos has already taken the first step to help solve it for the two friends.

Although his methods seem too kind to Luna, and sometimes they just stall for time and don't solve the problem at the root of the problem, it is good enough for a fourteen-year-old boy who grew up in a harmonious family and does not have to bear the title of knight.

Especially when there are two more Jack and Timmy as a control group.

It can be said that Carlos is a real little warm man in Luna's cognition, compared to the usual rogue who always flirts with his father Fleming, he is more like his mother's female who will take good care of everyone.

And this is the real reason why Carlos will help Camila out of the siege, it has nothing to do with liking, just because Camila is his friend's cousin.

With a sigh and a wave of the maid away, Luna sat on the couch in her room with her knees crossed, a little wilted, still feeling a lot of resistance to the upcoming banquet.

"Your Highness. Susie looked at Luna, who was rarely so listless, and couldn't help but whisper with some concern.

"I'm fine, let's go! Luna rubbed her head on the back of the couch before she staggered to her feet, muttering as she bent over and slowly put on her shoes.

Spring plowing and autumn harvest are always the busiest time of the year.

When Luna walked into Olivia's study, Olivia was settling accounts at the table, and the warm sunlight shining through the window on her side face made Luna unexpectedly find that in her impression, Olivia's eyes that had not changed over the years had climbed a few thin crow's feet at some point.

"Mother, why don't you call me with so many account books?"

Luna walked over, flipped through the thick ledger on the table, and sat down on the couch with an unaccounted book from her left hand, as Olivia was customary.

Seeing this, Sophie immediately took a stack of paper and pen and ink and put them on the small table in front of the sofa.

"Originally, I saw that you came back to ask you to help, isn't this that your father is always lazy? Olivia looked up at Luna with a smile.

"Father is always used to me, in fact, I think you are used to him! let him do everything, prepare everything for him, and almost feed him food. Luna opened the account book, glanced at it quickly, and said sourly as she twitched the pen and paper and quickly listed the values on it.

"What are these things you haven't enjoyed, and it's not that you can't enjoy them until you go to live in the manor!" Olivia gave Luna a disgusting look, then put down the pen in her hand and looked at Luna with some amusement.

"I know you miss me, just say it~I don't laugh at you~~~" Luna looked up at Olivia and winked and smiled playfully.

"Alright, don't be poor, come on, did you come to me to hide from your father, or is there something wrong?" asked Olivia, getting up and sitting down next to Luna.

"I'm hiding from my father, I'm obviously hiding from those official documents. Luna snorted and glanced at Olivia.

"I'm your mother, what's the matter that you have to look at before you say it? It's really bigger and less worry-free! If you have something to say, just leave quickly, don't hinder me from settling accounts!"

Olivia caught Luna's gaze and slapped her on the head with her hand.

Luna's head was tilted, she almost twisted her neck, she cried silently in her heart, and sighed secretly, the tiger mother is the tiger mother, the female strong man is a god, and the warm oil is really just an illusion......
