Chapter 144: Major General Bright's Wife
The experience just now can be summed up in one sentence, that is, "Miss "Justice" takes you to know the heirs to the title of Beckland".
Staying any longer, Louise felt that all the young men attending the banquet would find Audrey and bring themselves along with her...... By that time, I was afraid that her face would be stiff with a smile, so she slipped away as soon as possible.
Prince Edsak will soon be in tragedy, and Duke Negan will also be killed by the "Apostle of Desire...... Well, with Louise's current hostile relationship with Jason Beria, maybe what will turn out!
Anyway, why didn't you see Major General Bright at tonight's banquet...... Since coming to Beckland, Louise has also done some investigation, only to find that Bright seems to have completely disappeared, and has not received any news.
Of course, there is a reason why she has not completely opened up the situation in the upper class of Beckland, but with Bright's character, she shouldn't be so obscure!
After leaving Miss Justice's side, and sure enough, no one took the initiative to post it again, and Louise was briefly purified, and she wandered through the crowd of banquets with no definite goal.
Until, she saw Viscountess Connor, who was talking and laughing with a lady.
The woman was wearing an off-the-shoulder cut-out dress, delicate collarbones, fair skin, long black hair smoothly spread down, her body was like a willow, her eyes were like morning stars, delicate and weak, which made people feel pity.

Louise strode over to that direction.
Viscountess Connor noticed Louise's movements, said a polite farewell to the lady, and greeted her.
"I'm still looking for you!" The Viscountess said with a smile on her face.
Louise bowed softly and explained softly:
"I went to thank Miss Audrey for inviting me to the banquet, but she was so welcome that she was chatting with Prince Edsak, so I took my leave."
Prince Edsak...... The Viscountess looked at Louise from the Southern Continent, who was beautiful and generous in front of her, and was even more surprised by her, and it was good luck that she had established a good relationship with Miss Audrey in such a short time in Beckland, and even met a prince......
It is rumored that His Majesty wishes Prince Edsax to marry Miss Audrey, but this topic is clearly not suitable for this occasion to talk to Louise...... So, the Viscountess simply said the question that had plagued her for two days:
"I'm curious, how did you become friends with Miss Audrey?"
Louise smiled when she heard this, and the reason came with an open mouth:
"Miss Audrey is more curious and interested in mysterious and weird stories, and I have lived in the Southern Continent for a long time and have heard more about these kinds of stories."
The Viscountess gave a "I see" expression, which was similar to the answer she had guessed.
Louise feared that the other party would talk about Viscount Gleilynt again, which was not out of the question...... So she picked up a random topic and asked:
"Who was that lady you were talking to?"
"She's Baron Bright's wife, Lady Corlia." The Viscountess replied.
Brett...... Baron...... This is really nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!
Louise pretended to be curious and asked, "Baron Bright?" ”
The Viscountess was a little vague, and she replied simply:
"Baron Bright is a major general who once served in the Southern Continent, but he returned to Beckland some time ago and was assigned to other positions, and he has not appeared for a long time, so Mrs. Coria came alone to tonight's banquet."
Sure enough, it was him! No wonder I haven't heard about Major General Bright, it turns out that there is such a reason...... He's not going to be assigned to work on human trafficking again...... Louise's thoughts had already flown out of the clouds, and she simply said a perfunctory sentence to the viscountess, causing the other party to smile, and then the two separated.
At first glance, Madame Corlia was standing alone in the corner of the banquet hall, shaking the red wine glass in her hand, and the blue-green striped skirt did not look tacky on her at all, but had a more independent temperament.
Louise stepped forward with a smile on her face and greeted, "Hello, Lady Coria." ”
"Beautiful young lady, I don't seem to have seen you." Coria said that her voice was cold, but her tone was kind.
"It was really our first meeting." Louise's posture was very honest, and then explained: "I have been living in the Southern Continent before, and I have great admiration for the exploits of Major General Bright, and I have always wanted to meet him, but I always miss it, and this time I came to Beckland......"
As she spoke, Louise noticed that Lady Corlia's face was becoming a little colder, and seemed to be a little ...... Annoyed, which left her a little confused.
Corlia was not in a good mood, it should be said that since she married Major General Bright, she learned about the other party's character and behavior, and began to gradually fall silent......
She looked at Louise in front of her, young, beautiful, full of vitality, and now she had simply chased after Beckland, and Coria even had the urge to cry......
She coldly interrupted the other party's speech and asked directly: "What do you want to do, just say it." ”
Louise sensed that the other party's mood was not quite right, but she didn't know why, so she could only reply cautiously:
"It's not a big deal, but I heard that a friend who has lived in the Southern Continent has a little emotion for a while and wants to talk to him."
Coria was unmoved, still with a stiff face, and said flatly:
"That might be going to disappoint you, Bright hasn't been home for a long time, and I don't know where he is."
"If there is nothing else, please forgive me for missing me, I still have something to do, I have to go first."
"Please."
Louise naturally had no reason to stop her, but she felt a little inexplicable, how could she provoke the other party......
Seeing Mrs. Coria's posture, she actually left the banquet directly......
It's weird...... Louise thought that she needed to know more about Bright, but the breakthrough had been found, and the road ahead was much easier.
…………
"You're not going to be eating since you left me, are you?"
Audrey got rid of the pick-up and found Louise again, and found that the other party was still eating, so she asked.
Louise raised her glass and took a sip of black tea, swallowed the last piece of shrimp meat in her mouth, and finally said:
"Of course not, I just don't want to live up to the delicious food."
Audrey was just joking, she pursed her lips and smiled, and said:
"Come with me, Susie has always wanted to see you!"
