Chapter 15: Grievances

Alice talks about it alone, is the Debs family suspected of smuggling, and what is the use of Ellie? Obviously, this Merritt has bad intentions. Nimitz has also experienced storms and waves, and his heart is naturally like a mirror.

Nimitz's eyes narrowed as she looked at Merritt.

Merritt, on the other hand, lay comfortably in her chair, and did not even glance at Nimitz with her eyes closed. Merritt's attitude is clear - she wants your family to clear her name, and let Alice come and talk to me.

Nimitz pondered for a moment, then smiled, "Lord Merrit likes Master Lin Lei's 'Awakening' stone sculpture, and it is understandable that she wants to talk to Alice. Okay, I'll go back and talk to Alice. ”

When Merritt, who had been closing her eyes and recuperating herself, heard this, she couldn't help but open her eyes and looked at Nimitz next to her with a smile: "Haha, then Nimitz, please go back first." Just let Alice talk to me individually, and I think I'll get to know you Debs better. ”

Nimitz immediately stood up and said humbly, "Then Lord Merritt, I will take my leave first, and our Debs family will ask your lordship." ”

Merritt nodded slightly.

Nimitz immediately retreated.

And in the whole living room, Duke Merritt was alone at the moment.

Merritt held the wine glass, but muttered in a low voice: "Goddess, Alice ......" There was also a trace of self-satisfaction and yearning on his face.

Merit, as the right minister of the kingdom of Finlay, was made a duke. The esteem of status, which is higher than his status in the kingdom of Finlay, can be counted on one hand.

What kind of woman has never seen a character like him.

Merritt does like women, and now although he is in his seventies, he is equivalent to a powerful warrior with a lifespan of two or three hundred years. Now in his seventies, he is at his strongest. Merritt alone has twelve wives. But there is a more popular view among the aristocracy-

The wife at home is not as good as the lover outside, and the lover outside is not as good as what he can't get. What you can't get is the best.

But to Merritt's status. There are very few women left who can't get him. The woman who can really make his heart move is also very rare.

And Alice, the earth is indeed one of them.

Since the stone carving 'woke up' became famous, in the hearts of many people, the woman in the stone carving is the 'goddess'! The goddess is unattainable, such as Merritt, who has a respected status, naturally wants to get a goddess like Alice into his crotch. But it's too difficult.

And this time, it was an opportunity.

"Alice, goddess?" said Merritt, with an unconcealable smile on her face, and as soon as she looked up, she finished the bright red wine in her glass.

Nimitz sat in the carriage back. The brow was deeply furrowed.

Alice is Karan's fiancΓ©e!

If he asked Alice to meet with Merritt alone, he would undoubtedly push Alice into the fire. In the future, he will be able to cope with Kalan's questioning. But if this matter spreads, it will have a great impact on the Debs family.

"Well, if the family is finished, what reputation is there to mention!" Nimitz shook his head and sighed.

Now the Debs family has reached the most critical moment, once the Debs family is convicted of smuggling. Then the whole family will be destroyed, and the property will be completely taken away by King Clyde. Although the Debs family has left roots in the outside so that the family will not be severed.

But. Almost all of the Debs family's estates are in the kingdom of Finlay.

Once it fails, the Debs family wants to regain its glory, and it is not known what year it will take to wait.

Compared with the future of the family, a little rumor is nothing. After all, when has there been less filthy things in the *** of the aristocracy?

"But this thing. Alice had to agree to it herself. Nimitz became a little worried, "I can't force Alice to be sent to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion." ”

Alice's innocence. Nimitz didn't care. A woman only!

But Nimitz understood......

"This Alice has a special relationship with Lin Lei after all. If I force Alice. It was known to Na Lin Lei. That'......" Nimitz was a little scared when he thought about it.

Lin Lei has a special status in the middle of the Finlay Kingdom.

Although he was made a marquis. However, Lin Lei was actually a member of the Holy See of Light, and even originally, Clyde invited Lin Lei to become a nobleman of the Finlay Kingdom. He also said that they did not care about each other's kings and ministers.

Obviously, Clyde is hoping to win over Rayleigh.

Because the nobles of the entire Finlay Kingdom understood that as long as Lin Lei was willing, he could easily become a white-clothed priest in the Holy See of Light, and decades later, it was normal for Lin Lei to become a cardinal archbishop.

The cardinal archbishop is even higher than the king in terms of status!

"It can't be forced. Nimitz had a headache, and Alice would not agree. He puts himself in the shoes of the forest.

Alice is Lin Lei's first love after all! If Nimitz forces Alice to go to Merritt, he will lose his innocence. It's no wonder that Lin Lei is not angry!

In the Debs family mansion.

There were a lot of Debs family members in the living room, and Alice and Rowling stayed here. Their large crowd was waiting for Nimitz to return.

They are all worried about the future of the Debs family!

"The second uncle is back, the second uncle is back. A middle-aged man standing at the door of the living room, looking forward to it, saw Nimitz's figure and immediately shouted.

Suddenly, the people of the Debs family in the entire living room rushed towards Nimitz. Alice and Rowling glanced at each other, and immediately got up and went outside.

"Second uncle, how is it?" the middle-aged man immediately asked.

Nimitz looked at the group of people in front of him and tried to squeeze out a smile: "It's okay now. Let's all go back, Alice, you stay for a moment, I have something to talk to you about. ”

Nimitz was still very influential in the family, and when he heard his words, a group of people had to disperse one by one.

Alice was a little confused, wondering why Nimitz wanted to talk to herself alone.

"Sister Alice, then I'll go back to the room first. Rowling shook Alice's hand and whispered. Just a moment, in the whole living room

Alice was alone.

Nimitz stepped into the living room.

"Second grandfather, is there something wrong?" Alice said with some apprehension.

Nimitz looked at Alice and smiled kindly, "Alice, don't be nervous. You sit down first, and we'll have a good talk. With that, Nimitz sat down first.

Nimitz, who used to be extremely serious and didn't look down on her very much, how could she have such a good attitude today?

Alice had some doubts in her heart.

"Sit down. Nimitz smiled amiably.

Alice sat aside apprehensively.

Nimitz sighed lowly, his eyebrows full of sorrow: "Alice, you and Karan have just gotten engaged, but I didn't expect this to happen to our Debs family. I don't know who secretly framed my Debs family, if I had known, I would have killed him. Nimitz showed a hint of anger on his face, and then said helplessly. "But now, the most important thing is to wash away the grievances of our Debs family and rescue Bernard and Karan. ”

Alice nodded.

It's just that Alice was puzzled in her heart: "How can the second grandfather talk to me about this?"

Nimitz looked at Alice and said sincerely, "Alice, I have one thing to ask you. ”

"Please?" Alice stood up in fright.

Nimitz was in the Debs family, and even the patriarch respected Nimitz very much. Now that Nimitz actually said that he wanted to 'beg her', how could Alice not be shocked.

"Alice. The case of our Debus family's suspected smuggling was investigated and tried by the right minister, Lord Merritt, and the right minister, Lord Merritt, is very curious about you and wants to talk to you alone. ”

Nimitz immediately and eagerly persuaded, "Alice. This is a rare opportunity to get on good terms with Lord Merritt. As long as we have a good relationship with Master Merritt, he will help us with the Debs family, Alice, you grew up with Karan. You're not going to see him in jail, are you? ”

Alice was stunned.

Talking alone?

Alice also lives in an aristocratic family, and is very clear about the filthy scenes inside the aristocracy. She guessed. Meeting with Master Merritt will never be that simple.

"Me. I ......" Alice stuttered a little.

Nimitz pleaded, "Alice. It's up to us in the Debs family, I can even guarantee you. As long as you can get on good terms with Lord Merritt, you can be Karan's wife. ”

Alice felt like her mind was in a mess at this point.

Alice is still very clean.

Whether it is Lin Lei or Kalan, she is holding the last hurdle after all. Even if she is engaged to Karan, Alice insists on waiting until after the big wedding to have sex with her.

Now it's up to her to deal with Merritt......

"Alice, even if I beg you. Nimitz gritted his teeth, knelt down from his chair, and pleaded, "Alice, Karan's life and death are up to you." ”

"Karan's life and death?" Alice was shocked.

Karan is something she grew up with since she was a child, especially in recent days in the Debs family, she has often been rumored ***, and Karan has always protected her.

"Okay, I promise. Alice said through gritted teeth.

Nimitz couldn't help but have a hint of surprise on his face, and then hurriedly said, "Okay, then, tomorrow evening, I will arrange for you to go to Lord Merritt's house." ”

But Alice's face was very pale at the moment, and she didn't respond at all.

The next evening.

A carriage, escorted by twelve knights, left the Debs family mansion and drove slowly towards the mansion of Lord Merritt. Inside the carriage, Alice was the only one.

Alice sat quietly in the carriage, pursed her lips and clutched her dress nervously with one hand.

The carriage kept moving forward, and soon came to the door of the Duke Merritt's mansion.

"Miss Alice, it's here. "There was a coachman's voice outside.

Alice couldn't help but feel shocked when she heard this, and her right hand couldn't help touching her waist, and the hardness of the dagger on her waist made Alice feel a little fixed in her heart.

Taking a deep breath, Alice pushed open the door and got out of the carriage.

......

Inside the living room of the Duke of Merritt's mansion.

Wearing a long skirt on the lower body and a coat on the upper body, Alice is also wearing a tight one. With a few steps, Alice calmly walked into the living room, and Alice looked around, but the living room was empty.

"Huh?" Alice frowned.

At this time, a female waiter ran over and said respectfully, "Miss Alice, Lord Duke, he is in the study, and I invite Miss Alice to the study." ”

"Study?" Alice paused.

However, under the urging of the waiter's gaze, Alice still took a step.

The study is remote and secluded. There are very few people here. Walking to the door of the study, Alice saw a middle-aged man with blonde hair walking at his desk looking at some papers.

"This is Meritt?" Alice saw Merritt for the first time, and felt that Meritt should be a very strong person. Even when he sat at the desk, his waist was straight, and his eyes were so sharp.

"Lord Duke, Miss Alice is here. The maid said respectfully.

Merritt only then raised her head, and when she saw Alice, she immediately stood up excitedly: "Haha, Miss Alice is here?" I've been waiting for a long time, come, Miss Alice, please take a seat first." With that, Merritt stood up and walked over to Alice.

Alice stepped into the study.

Alice looked around, and there was a bookshelf on the right side of the study, with dense books on it. On the left side of the study is a bed.

"Usually when I am tired of reading books or dealing with government affairs, I will rest here. Duke Merritt said with a smile as she walked to the door and closed the door of the study.

Alice couldn't help but be shocked to see that the door of the study was closed, and only Merrit and her were left inside.

"Lord Merritt, the door is still open. I'm not used to being too dark. Alice said quickly.
