Chapter 14: There is no choice
"What are you waiting for?" Sophia's face was as cold as ice: "Take her out!"
Tony didn't dare to delay any longer, so he rushed forward with a few samurai with a wave of his hand, grabbed Belil and dragged him out.
"Miss, you're going to ruin yourself completely...... Miss ......" Belle cried loudly, but her voice was getting farther and lower, and she couldn't hear it for only a few minutes, and she should have been dragged to the backyard by Tony and the others.
Two more samurai came to catch Brigitte, and Brigitte was so frightened that she suddenly rushed towards Dio, and then hugged Dio's thighs and cried out: "Young master, help me, help me...... Woowoo...... I know it's wrong, I really know it's wrong, please, young master, save me......"
"You dare?!" Sophia was furious, her face turned pale with anger, she was not worried about Dio's intercession, only that Brigitte's crazy actions would frighten Dio.
Since Sophia was attacked, she has been living in Dio's manor, and the expansion and flipping of the entire manor were completed at that stage, but when Sophia was over fifteen, for the sake of herself, for the livelihood of Dio and many followers, she had to leave the manor and go to the Baron's palace to help her father deal with the financial affairs of the territory, initially just to earn some money. Extraward' to fill the shortfall of the estate, and later her intellect was fully displayed in one important task after another, and now, the old baron could not do without Sophia's assistance.
At that time, Sophia wanted to take Dio with her, but then thought about it and gave up, Dio rarely left his courtyard all day long, always liked to hide in dark corners, Sophia thought that the strange world would definitely make Dio feel frightened.
The government affairs are busy, the Baron's Palace is almost six or seven hundred miles away from this manor, if you want to go around the county and other nobles, it will be even farther, Sophia comes back less and less, and she only stays for a few days when she comes back, and then she has to leave, so although the adult Dio is taller than Sophia and his body has become stronger, the impression left on Sophia is very weak, but it is Dio when he was a child, and his image has long taken root in the depths of Sophia's heart, after all, they were together every day during that time.
What Sophia saw was a child who was sluggish, cowardly, and refused to have contact with the outside world, of course, dullness, cowardice and idiocy are two different things, Sophia remembers very clearly, when she was a child, she once saw a red fruit on the tree, she was very happy, and wanted to go up the tree to pick it, but it was Dio who grabbed her and said two words: danger.
How can an idiot know the danger?!
Something like this happened many times later, and when she had enough power to get out of the manor, she sent people around to find a healer, to introduce Theo's condition, to inquire about the cure, and finally, after summarizing, she thought that she had figured out the cause of Theo's illness. After experiencing a violent blow or seeing a very horrific situation, some people will have psychological pathologies, such as the surname becomes extremely irritable, alcoholism, autism, etc., Dio is a patient who closes the window of his heart.
But there is no cure for this disease, and it can only wait for Dio himself to slowly recuperate and adjust, and those healers repeatedly told Sophia not to let the patient be frightened again, otherwise, he may become a madman, or a real idiot.
This is also the fundamental reason why Sophia agrees to marry Dio, if Dio is a fool, it will never be possible to know hot and cold, as a girl full of longing for marriage, even if she owes a lot, she will not marry Dio, she believes that Dio will one day come out of the shadows and become a normal person.
And Brigitte's actions made Sophia feel angry out of it.
The second young master, who was far away in the Baron's Mansion, didn't know that his malicious suggestion was exactly what Sophia wanted. Under the afterglow of the fall, a little girl who was only eight years old, watched the guards splash blood one by one, separated their heads, and fell in front of them one by one, the huge impact she felt in her heart could not be described in words, after that tragic battle, Sophia grew up, she will no longer easily trust anyone, will no longer easily express her likes and dislikes, and bury everything deep in her heart.
Dio is the only exception, she trusts this little boy who has been through hardships with her unconditionally, and the people around her who try to get in touch with her will always have various purposes, but Dio will not!
"Young Master, save me......" Brigitte shook Dior's thighs desperately, she knew that no one else could save her, only Dio, she prayed in her heart, praying that Young Master Dior would remember what he said that day, and the husband and wife would be kind all night!
"I ......" Dio paused after only one word, half of his mind was used to digest the news he had just gotten, and the other half was used to think about whether he should take care of Sophia's family affairs, which was in line with his 'idiot' nature, and it was a long time before Dio said the following words: "I don't want her to go." ”
"Ahh
"This ......" Sophia didn't expect Dio to intercede for Brigitte, her face changed, and she smiled bitterly: "Since you like her, let her stay." ”
"Thank you, young master, thank you, young master......" Brigitte was pleasantly surprised, the feeling of being reborn after the catastrophe made her tears flow more, and after calling incoherently a few times, she turned around and shouted: "Thank you, Miss, woo...... Thank you, miss......"
"Don't thank me. Sophia said coldly: "Although you can continue to stay, but the whip is indispensable, Brigitte, only unforgettable pain can make you remember today's lesson!"
At this moment, a samurai who was not wearing a badge spoke: "Miss, look...... Belle has been serving you for almost ten years, and this time it is fortunate that she didn't make a big mistake, shouldn't she ......?"
"Feders, don't you even understand me?"
"Miss, I understand your anger. The samurai, named Feders, said softly, his mouth saying that he understood, but there was a look of disbelief on his face, as if to say, for the sake of an idiot, what is it?, and then he paused, and then said, "But Belil has always been ...... to you."
"Fedeers, if I forgive Belil now, do you know what will happen next?"
"What's going on?" said Federes.
"There will be a group of ill-intentioned people who will break into this manor......! What are the ways in which they are accustomed to expressing their pride...... You should know better than I do. Sophia said lightly: "If I insist on guarding my oath, then I can only warn them bluntly, whoever tries to destroy this place is my lifelong enemy, I ...... No forgiveness!"
"Oaths, you mean...... Master Dio?" Federes's mind was racing, and he quickly understood Sophia's intentions, the news that Sophia was going to marry Dio had spread, and those noble children who were bent on winning the return of beauty must be unwilling, at first, they should ask around who Dio was, what kind of ability he had, as well as his identity, status, etc., and when he heard clearly, the trouble of the manor would come.
If Sophia is looking for the right person, even if those noble children are unwilling, they can only swallow this breath, and the result of making trouble in it is to have a bad impact on their reputation. But Dio's identity is an idiot, which is problematic, those children will only insist that Sophia is married with the purpose of repaying the favor, and destroying that idiot is the best way to save Sophia, and they belong to the camp of justice.
Therefore, if you want Dio to live safely, Belil must die, Sophia must use Belil's life to issue the most severe warning, even the intimate personal maid will be executed, and Sophia will not have any scruples about other people, whoever dares to hurt Theo is Sophia's undying enemy.
On the contrary, if Belil is spared this time, those noble children will be much bolder, and even think that Sophia only protects Dio for the sake of face, but it is conceivable that Dio's life will be calculated in 'days'.
It's just that understanding is understanding, and Fedeers still disagrees with Sophia's decision in his heart: "Miss, I understand, but ...... The punishment doesn't have to be so severe, right? Dozens of lashes are enough for Belier to remember the lesson. ”
"Fedeers, my heart is much more uncomfortable than yours. Sophia's face finally showed a trace of fatigue, she didn't lie, she really wanted to execute Belier, no matter how shrewd and tough she had been forged, it was inevitable to hesitate, and that was what she said, but Tony stood still stupidly, she didn't urge, but Belil actually called Dio an idiot to her face, which completely angered her, so she made up her mind and ordered someone to take Belil out immediately.
(The results of this book in the same period seem to be less than the previous Imperial Turmoil, Assassin Demon Legend and Chaos God of War, it's too tragic, just in terms of the energy currently expended, this one far exceeds the previous ones, and the setting has been changed more than a dozen times before and after, until the editor is satisfied, the title of the book has been thought of hundreds of times, and they have all been rejected by the editor, thanks to the water without a trace Zhongshao helped me think of one, it was a fluke.) In the past, I repeatedly avoided wasting time and energy on this, always pestering the editor to open a new book for me, and when the editor asked about the setting, I vaguely said, almost, okay, no problem, rest assured...... The first time I prepared my homework so seriously, my grades were not as good as before, and it would hurt my fragile soul, my lords, smash the recommendation votes! I must have broken out in advance, and I have a manuscript in my hand, and my current waist is very straight, can it make me feel panicked, it depends on the strength of the adults, the recommended votes, the call for the recommendation votes...... )
