Queens of Beckland, Viscount Gleilint's villa.

In the afternoon, Audrey Hall brought her valet Anne to the hall, but she was not here for the ball, but for someone.

Luckily.

She found her purpose at a glance -

At this time, he was sitting on the sofa not far away reading the embers of a book.

"Mr. Ash."

Audrey walked up with small steps, pursed her lips and sat down beside Ember.

"Miss Audrey, is there something wrong?"

Ember turned her head and looked at the girl politely and in surprise.

"The ......"

Audrey stretched out her little white hand and showed Ember the ring she had worn on the little finger of her right hand, and whispered, "I'm sorry, it was here since the last party, and I don't know why." ”

"I wanted to give it back to you that day, but I didn't find a chance until now, so I'm really sorry."

Audrey said, suddenly bowing her head in shame.

In her opinion, such an important thing must be very anxious if she loses the embers.

That's why she thought about finding Ember and returning the ring.

It's just that she doesn't have a direct contact with Ember itself, she only knows that Ember is the night watchman of the Night Church, but she doesn't know where he lives, so she can't go directly to St. Samuel's Church to find someone, right?

She knew that it would be useless even if she went, after all, Ember didn't live in a church.

It was only when Glerint threw another ball that she finally waited for a chance to meet Ember.

"No, you don't have to."

Ember reached out and pressed it on the back of the girl's hand, stopping her from taking off the ring, "This ring is an exhibit I paid you in advance, you can wear it first." If the day I get it, it's not too late to pay me then. ”

"But it's too precious......"

Audrey hesitated to refuse.

The value of the exhibits is to be displayed, and to put it mildly, it is to use it as a 'test item'.

But I don't know how many people are willing to eat this kind of experiment.

"No need to refuse."

Ember shook his head and said, "The value of the sacrifice is determined by the person being saved, and it is not of much value to me. It can't be said to be worthless, but at least it can be said to be better than nothing. ”

"And."

Ember palmed, two clumsy emerald rings appeared in the palm of his hand, and in the girl's small mouth opened into an O-shaped expression because of surprise, he said calmly, "I still have such a ring here, and there is no shortage of this one." ”

"That ......"

Audrey pursed her lips and struggled for a while before whispering, "If that's the case, then I'll take it." But ......"

Audrey paused, then continued, "For every month I wear it, I pay Mr. Ash a thousand gold bills. If my ring is damaged or 'lost' because of me, I will pay you a lump sum of 10,000 gold pounds, is that okay? ”

Although 10,000 pounds is already a huge amount of money, Audrey is still a little apprehensive in her heart.

Because in her opinion, the value of this ring is much more than that.

But after all, she is still underage.

If she waited until she reached adulthood, although she could not inherit the title, her father left her a fortune of at least 300,000 gold pounds.

But for her now, her pocket money is only 10,000 gold pounds.

Therefore, it can only be paid in a lump sum of 10,000 gold pounds, and the rest can only be paid in installments.

"Okay."

Ember stared at the girl for a long time before nodding helplessly in the girl's determined eyes.

It's just that his expression is also slightly strange.

Am I being fostered?

"A thousand gold lists, every month? And the ring?! ”

Not far behind, following the maid's duty, she didn't follow too closely and didn't think about eavesdropping, but because Audrey's voice was not deliberately suppressed, Anne, the personal maid who heard a slightly indistinct conversation, couldn't help but open her mouth wide.

She didn't listen to what the two of them had to say.

But she could guess from just a few words.

My own young lady, it seems that she wants to support that little white face? Still have a private agreement with him for life?

How can this work! Miss Audrey, you are a nobleman, the only daughter of Earl Hall!

Anne gritted her teeth and suppressed her desire to step forward to dissuade her.

She is just a maid, and it is undoubtedly a bit arrogant to interfere with her master's affairs.

But she couldn't watch Miss Audrey fall into the abyss, so she ......

"I'm sorry, Miss Audrey."

The maid Anne bowed her head silently, and began to think about how to report the matter to Count Hall without a trace.

"Miss Audrey."

Furth, who was wearing a beige stand-up collar dress, came to the two of them with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "I want to borrow Mr. Ash, you shouldn't mind, right?" ”

"Of course I don't mind."

A hint of surprise flashed in Audrey's eyes, but soon a polite smile appeared on her face, and she stood up from the sofa with her long skirt gracefully, "I'll go to the bathroom and be absent." ”

Audrey remembers that the Lady of Forth did not seem to be in good shape, and was close to getting out of control.

And from the current point of view, although Ember did not choose to arrest him, the two sides must have established a certain connection.

Ms. Folth had a smile on her face, but there was a lingering haze and anxiety in her eyes.

Presumably there was something urgent to find Ember.

Is it the same as her?

Foirth watched Audrey leave with a smile and sat down gracefully beside Ember, then abruptly turned his gaze to Ember and stared straight at him.

"Something?"

Ember asked, looking at it a little inexplicably.

"You don't forget, do you?"

Furth's eyes widened, and he clenched his silver teeth and said with some annoyance, "Today is July 25th, you promised me!" ”

"I didn't forget."

Ember looked at her calmly, and said unhurriedly, "But you only have needs at night, do you?" I'll come to your house in the evening to help you out, are there any other questions? ”

"Nope."

Fluth stopped talking, only to feel that he had punched the cotton, and he was deflated at once.

You will only hear the whisper when the moon is full, and the other party only needs to come to the house before the full moon to help solve the problem.

Ultimately.

Although he is the one who is tormented by the whispering, the last thing he wants to lose control may be the other party.

After all, once you lose control, the chaos caused by it will be borne by the other party.

On the contrary, the other party is willing to accept herself, an extraordinary person who may get out of control at any time, as an informant, and is willing to risk losing control to help herself solve the torture of babbling, which is a favor she owes him.

Isn't that what I owe him?

When he thought of this, he suddenly felt a little weak.

What if the other party gives up 'healing' himself in anger and arrests himself?

"I'm sorry."

Ms. Furth whispered from the heart.

"It's okay."

Ember replied casually, apparently not paying attention.

However, not far behind, Ms. Hugh, who was only 1.5 meters, couldn't help but widen her eyes at this moment.

"At night? Going home? Solve the need? Sorry?! ”

"Folth, what are you doing, Folth!!"

She seemed to have heard something terrible.
