Chapter 240: The Guest

Preparing for a ball is a tedious and meticulous task, especially in an aristocratic gathering place like Beckland, which attaches great importance to etiquette norms, and the slightest mistake can be a laughing stock.

However, it is precisely because of this that the arrangement of the ball has its own unique process, which is conventional and lacks novelty.

Louise has made a lot of arrangements in her bedroom to make the "guests" feel at home as much as possible.

"Have all the invitations been sent?" She asked.

The maid lady replied seriously: "It has been sent out, and most of the guests have conveyed the signal that they are willing to participate, but one lady directly refused the invitation......

"Oh?" Louise asked curiously, "Who is it?" ”

The maid glanced at Louise quietly, and quickly gave an answer:

"It's Lady Coria, her husband died in the line of duty, and she is preparing for a funeral, and she has no time to accept the invitation."

Well? Major General Bright has been dead for so long, why has news of his death just been reported back to Beckland...... Louise was puzzled by this, but only replied lightly:

"That's it, it's okay."

…………

In the evening, the ball was held as scheduled.

As Louise's first ball after coming to Beckland, if there was no real delay, the guests who received the invitation would basically give face to attend.

In fact, this ball should have been held a long time ago, but Louise had rushed to Tingen for private reasons, so it was delayed, and it coincided with the "Five Pounds Killing Ambassador" incident, and Louise had to push the boat down the river to add some exciting elements to this ball.

The guests flocked to Louise to more or less express their novelty and praise for the ball, but to their greater surprise were the other familiar faces present tonight.

Earl Hall's precious daughter, Miss Audrey, was present, as well as Viscount Learson's youngest son, Conse, Viscountess Connor, Viscount Glerinte, and so on...... Most of them were some really influential nobles, not the descendants of the most down-and-out nobles in Beckland.

"It seems that this newcomer Miss Louise is not easy!" This is the deep thought of many guests.

Smiling and greetings, Louise could almost guess what these people were thinking, and thought to herself a little smugly: "If I tell the story that I almost invited Prince Edsax to this ball, I'm afraid it will surprise more people." ”

She had the idea, and although Prince Edsak would most likely refuse, Triss would accept it...... However, the Extraordinary Guards around His Royal Highness the Prince were unpredictable, and Louise finally gave up the invitation.

Smiling all the way, and just as her cheek muscles were about to stiffen, Louise noticed a strange combination.

Foirth was dressed in a gown, outlining her well-proportioned figure, while Miss Hugh next to her was dressed in a knight's outfit, with a young face, short and slender, and if I guessed correctly, there must have been a three-edged thorn hidden in the lining of her waist......

Louise walked towards the two of them, bowed slightly, and said:

"Welcome to tonight's ball, I hope you have a good time."

"It is our pleasure, Miss Louise."

Folth responded politely, and Miss Hugh, who was beside her, bowed but did not repeat the answer.

"To be honest, I was surprised when I saw the invitation you sent!" Furth joked, as if he was just exchanging pleasantries.

Louise glanced at the smiling Foirth and Miss Hugh with a serious expression, and said with a smile:

"After tonight, the doubts in your hearts will be lifted."

"But......," she said, "it is not me who invites you, but Miss Audrey, who offers to answer your questions." ”

Forthth and Hugh looked at each other, both amazed at Miss Audrey's involvement in such a dangerous and extraordinary event, and turned to ask cautiously:

"Will it be dangerous?"

Louise smiled dumbly, casually pointed to the guests who were chatting and laughing, and asked:

"What do you think?"

"Please forgive my offense." Furth smiled awkwardly, and then pulled Hugh towards the direction where Miss Audrey was standing.

Louise stayed where she was, finally cleared for a while, raised her glass and took a sip of red wine, feeling the time pass minute by minute, but she didn't see Beck Lang come as promised.

However, according to reliable sources, the Intis embassy did not hold a ball, and Beck Lang should have appeared here to get rid of suspicion, not to mention that there was his own "charming witch" waiting for him tonight......

As she was thinking, she suddenly noticed that the "soothsayer" lady dressed as a maid in the corner gave a look, and Louise was overjoyed, and looked towards the door, and sure enough, she saw Beckron walking into the ball hall with relaxed and confident steps, looking full of satisfaction.

Baker is proud of this qualification, and under his leadership, his Intis intelligence officers are turning MI9 around, while he calmly arrives at the ball, ready to welcome the last "tempting gift" of leaving Beckland.

He noticed that the master of the ball was walking towards him, his eyes lit up slightly, Louise was wearing a long crimson dress, her shoulders were cut-out, her black hair was flowing and smooth, and her fawn-like eyes seemed to hide many words.

"Miss Louise, I haven't seen you for two days, and your charm is simply irresistible."

Baker Lang kissed Louise on her outstretched left hand, and then complimented him warmly.

In the interval between these two days, he took the time to send someone to investigate Louise, and came to the conclusion that everything was normal, the latter was from the Southern Continent and was trying to get into the circle of nobles...... Baker has seen a lot of this kind of person, so he gladly agreed.

"Mr. Ambassador is still so honest." Louise responded, her expression slightly lively.

This time it was Beckland's turn to be slightly stunned, and he almost thought that he had returned to Intis, for Miss and Mrs. Beckland were more reserved and reserved, and rarely heard such interesting answers.

He laughed twice and said, "I like your candor." ”

"If you have the opportunity to go to Intis in the future, you will love it."

Louise showed an interested look and said happily: "I have always had the idea of going to various kingdoms to play, and when the time comes, Mr. Ambassador will do his best to be a landlord!" ”

Beckron patted his chest lightly and generously promised:

"Miss Louise is guaranteed to feel at home and feel the warmth and character of Intis."

"I'm looking forward to it!" Louise blinked, then her gaze fell on Beckron's face and invited:

"But now it's time to dance."
