Chapter 066: Seeing Through
Because she sensed the dangerous black aura, Leah subconsciously took two steps back, and then was stunned for a moment, she suddenly realized that she was acting like this now...... That seems very inappropriate......
There was always a feeling that she didn't seem to respect the other person very much......
However, the beautiful woman did not show an angry expression at all, not only that, but she also looked at Leah, who was a little frightened, with great interest, and the light in her eyes gradually became brighter, because this look Leah felt more dangerous, and from her own experience, whenever the black-bellied guy showed such a look, she would be unlucky.
Sure enough, the next moment, the beautiful woman suddenly stepped forward and hugged her into her arms amid Leah's exclamation.
"Wow! Although I've heard Ulysses say it for a long time, I really have to see it with my own eyes before I can feel it deeply, you are really a lovely child, and it is also a blessing for my family Ulysses to marry such a lovely child!"
Ulysses heard the beautiful woman's direct statement, and immediately blushed, and Leah couldn't care about these anymore, her face was clamped on the beautiful woman's chest, for a while Leah only felt difficult to breathe, and a pair of arms waved helplessly, but there was no way to break free from the beautiful woman's arms, it was obvious that the strength of the Duchess Tulip was far more than her.
Soon after, the beautiful woman finally let go of Leah, and Leah suddenly gasped for breath after being relieved, and she glanced at the beautiful woman's foul chest with some dissatisfaction, and her mood was a little complicated for a while.
"Why...... I'm going to feel envious......"
Leah, who has half a male soul, really can't accept that she has feelings of envy for each other's breasts.
"Introduce myself, my name is Orthea Laura Tulip, I'm Ulysses' mother, and I'll soon be your mother. ”
"Mom!" Ulysses shyly screamed when she heard Orthea introduce herself, and Leah trembled in her heart, she suspected that Orthea might have sensed something, so she emphasized her relationship with Ulysses' betrothed from the beginning.
"Is it worthy of the intuition of a mature woman...... Leah's heart was secretly vigilant, she didn't want to be inexplicably ruined by this guy who looked very dark at first glance, if she failed, she really had to marry Ulysses.
This is a consequence that Leah absolutely cannot accept.
"Okay, Leah, you shouldn't have breakfast yet, right? Reggie slowly stood up, Ulysses rushed up to support his body, and Leah noticed that his legs didn't seem to be able to exert much strength.
"I'll make you laugh, that's what my body looks like. Reggie nodded slightly at Leah, "Although many people persuade me to use a wheelchair, it is indeed much more convenient, but I think there are some things that must not be compromised, once I am in a wheelchair, I will probably lose the arrogance in my body, well, you just think of it as my boring complaint." ”
After speaking, Reggie slowly walked out the door with Ulysses' support, and Leah looked at his back, and couldn't help but feel a little respect in her heart.
"Really, always like to stick to your choices on these weird things. Althea chuckled and sighed, Leah could clearly see that her eyes were a little moist, it must be a very hard thing to watch her lover gradually step into the abyss of death like this, right?
Leah, who was soft-hearted, walked to Althea's side and gently grabbed her arm, Orsea glanced at Leah in some surprise, and then showed a mature and charming smile.
"Little Leah, I really like you more and more. ”
Leah didn't say anything, just smiled a little shyly, she didn't dare to speak casually, lest she show anything in front of this sensitive guy.
So, a group of four people slowly walked towards Tulip's restaurant.
On the way to the restaurant, Althea didn't know why she deliberately slowed down, and although Leah was a little puzzled, she still obediently cooperated with her, so the two of them gradually distanced themselves from the two in front of them.
After a while, Orthea suddenly smiled and said, "Little Leah, although you haven't shown it, I want to ...... You don't like Ulysses, do you?"
Leah was taken aback by Orthea's words, but she quickly controlled her expression and deliberately showed a somewhat dazed expression to the other party: "Madam, what are you talking about, how could I not like Ulysses?"
"Just call me Aunt Sea," Orthea gently squeezed Leah's little hand, "Although you have always behaved very well, both politely and prepared small gifts, and have always acted in accordance with the status of a noble lady, it is precisely because of this that I can see that something is wrong." ”
"Why ......" Leah didn't understand why she had been acting well and would be debunked by the other party.
"It is precisely because you have behaved so well that you think we will agree to your marriage to Ulysses without investigating your affairs at all? ”
"What's the matter?" Leah's heart felt a little empty, and she suddenly realized that she seemed to be thinking too much about things.
"Don't you want to think about it, if you really like Ulysses, can you still keep your composure? A girl who accepts the invitation of her sweetheart for the first time to go to the other person's house as a guest, and also meets the other person's parents directly, is generally absolutely nervous to death, but you have just behaved too calmly, which is also the decisive evidence that I am sure of my own conjecture. Orthea smiled softly, but her smile seemed to Leah to be dangerous.
"Really...... What a terrible reasoning ability......" Leah swallowed a mouthful of saliva secretly, she thought that she had exhausted her last resort, but who knew that in the eyes of the other party, she actually had such a serious flaw.
"That...... Aunt Seya, I really don't understand what you mean...... "At this point, the only option Leah has is to play dumb.
"Silly boy, I won't embarrass you, liking someone is something that others can't force, if you don't like it, you don't like it, you can't like it so easily. Orthea touched Leah's head with some pity, "But you must know that we are all children who grew up in aristocratic families, and we can have a more comfortable life by being born nobles, but at the price, at some point, we have to do something we don't like." ”
Leah suddenly showed a thoughtful expression when she heard Orsya's words.
The rule of this world is that there must be gains and losses, and when you gain something, you will inevitably lose something, this is the balance of the world, so at this time, your best choice is to accept the facts, even if the facts are not the results you want. Althea said as she turned her gaze to Reggie in front of her.
"And sometimes, if you don't try, how do you know that your choice must be wrong?"
Leah saw Althea's gaze, she looked at Reggie's frail back, and then at Althea, realizing that most of them had some entangled past when they were younger.
"Accept it...... Accepting Ulysses...... Leah's heart was a little messed up because of Althea's words, indeed, from her own will, she would never like Ulysses as a boy, but if she insisted on her choice and messed up this marriage, what would happen to the Violet family?
If she did break off her engagement to Ulysses, what would she have to pay?
Is that price acceptable to her and the Violet family?
She...... Will you regret your choice?
Leah originally thought that she had thought very clearly, but after listening to Orthea's words, her determination began to waver again, and Leah suddenly realized that she seemed to be thinking a little too one-sided, as far as the current situation is concerned, this marriage fails, and most of the Tulip family will not do anything.
However, in addition to the Tulip family, there are many other nobles in the empire, Yancheng is a rare treasure, I don't know how many eyes are staring at it in the empire, if it can't get the support of the Tulip family, it is likely to become very difficult for the Violet family to keep Yancheng by their own strength......
Leah couldn't help biting her lip, she suddenly didn't know what she was going to do, whether it was to marry Ulysses like this, or reject Ulysses, and thus make the family suffer a huge loss, she was unwilling to accept.
"Isn't there no way to have the best of both worlds, as Aunt Thea said, if you want something, you have to give something else?"
"What the hell am I going to do to ......?"
Leah suddenly felt a little helpless, she suddenly longed for Evangerine now, if she was by her side, she would definitely be able to give her a lot of advice, after all, she was much better than herself in these areas.
"Okay, don't think about those headaches, the most important thing now is to make him happy, he doesn't have much time left. Althea's voice interrupted Leah's thoughts, and she looked at Reggie with a sad look in her eyes.
