"Hmm. ”

Mary nodded, lonely for a moment, and then pleaded

"Mr. Xavier, can you take me back to see my father and my brother?"

"When everything is settled, I'll take you back. Xavier told a white lie

"You know, they're in danger, and I promised them that I wouldn't put you in a predicament. ”

"But"

"This is your father's hope, Mary, believe me, wait a little longer and you will see them again. Xavier stroked Mary's hair and whispered reassuringly.

Mary was silent again for a few seconds, then nodded silently.

In fact, after going through the past few days and calming down, she gradually accepted this fact.

Although she was smart enough to sense that something was wrong, she chose to trust Xavier, believing that she would see her father and brother again.

"That's good. Xavier smiled, "If you need anything, remember to call me, and Viscount Wallace, and we will help you." ”

"Hmm. ”

"If there's nothing to do, I'll go out first. He had come to take a brief look at Mary, and he had taken his leave.

"Goodbye, Mr. Xavier. The little girl waved.

Walking out of the rich area, Xavier followed the route he remembered and arrived at the Governor's Palace in Crete City.

He had come to say goodbye to Liana and the Governor.

After all, they have helped themselves, and since they are going back to the capital, why not ask them what they need by the way?

But what he didn't expect was that he would see an unexpected figure in the Governor's Palace, in the room where Liana usually does errands.

Long brown hair, a petite body, and a youthful aura converge on the same person's body.

The shadow was sitting across from Leana, smiling and talking to her.

She was Caroline de Bettine, the one she loved.

Xavier couldn't hide his excitement, and he interrupted the conversation between the two girls, and hurriedly asked

"Caroline, why are you here?"

Startled by the voice, Caroline glanced at Xavier, and then quickly showed a happy expression and took the initiative to hug Xavier.

"I'm worried that something has happened to you, Ze dear, it's good that you're okay. She still remembered the last time Xavier called her.

"How could something happen to me. After hugging Caroline, who was a head shorter than himself, Xavier smiled and said, "After all, I still have to win the knights' conference to marry you." ”

"So, why did you write that letter to me?" asked Caroline.

"The letter?"

Caroline didn't speak, and took out a letter.

Xavier read it a little, and couldn't help but blush.

He remembered that it was before he went to that bridge, and suddenly he felt very afraid of death, so he wrote this letter.

He also said some strange things, what after he died, Caroline could go and remarry or something.

No wonder the girl was scared and ran over, this is simply crazy FG.

"Ahem, sorry to worry you, but I'm okay now. Xavier said with a slight embarrassment.

"It's fine, dear. Caroline touched Xavier's somewhat vicissitudes of life, "But please don't say that again, even if you leave by accident, I won't abandon you!"

"I don't die that easily. Xavier hadn't seen Caroline look so serious for a long time, and he didn't really want to discuss such a serious topic, so he quickly changed his sentence

"By the way, since you're here, I'll take you to Crete City. ”

Liana, who had been silent next to her, suddenly interjected, "If you don't mind, I can lead the way." ”

Just now, she was smiling and watching the conversation between the two, but she was a little congested in her heart.

This is the taste of love, but I have never encountered it.

Because of her prominent status, men see her with respect and longing behind them.

It wasn't what she wanted.

So, she really envied these two people and hoped that she would do the same in the future.

"I have lived in Crete for a long time, and I have the power to show you the way. Liana added.

"Absolutely. "The last time Xavier found Viscount Wallace was Leana, if there were locals to lead the way, why refuse?

But he asked Caroline anyway, "Caroline, what do you think?"

"I, I don't care. Caroline had always listened to Xavier.

"Alright, that's it, let's go now!" Xavier happily stroked Caroline's hair.

A few people left like that.

Before leaving, Xavier heard a little discussion in the Doge's Palace.

He knew very well that it was the voice of the Governor, and some of it was from his subordinates, who seemed to be arguing and discussing something.

Liana noticed this expression and took the initiative to explain

"Father seems to have had some trouble lately, and he has a lot of official business to deal with, so he shouldn't be able to see you today. ”

"It's fine. Xavier was calm, "Work is more important. ”

But in reality, he had already guessed what was happening.

"We should only stay here for one day and go back to Minos tomorrow. He said to Caroline and Liana.

"So fast?" said Liana, a little surprised, "I was going to take you guys a few more days along." ”

"Let's put it this way. Xavier wasn't going to hide it, "You know, I've traveled a little bit before, in other places in Vasiliki. ”

"It seems that there are all kinds of rebellions in the surrounding villages and places, and although I don't think they will affect the city of Crete, the current Vasiliki will undoubtedly be in danger. ”

"If you can, I'd like you to follow along, or choose to stay in a safe place and avoid going out. ”

He said a few words seriously.

"So, what my father is discussing, maybe that's it," Leana looked thoughtful.

"I will listen to your advice, but I also believe that the city of Crete, as the capital, has enough garrisons, and there will be no major problems. ”

"It's a good idea for you to take Caroline back with you, though, and not to put her in danger. ”

"Hmm. Xavier nodded.

Caroline listened blankly to the arrangements, and said nothing.

Leaving the Governor's Palace, the two took a carriage to the wealthy district.

Xavier is here for the third time and still feels amazing.

The crowd here is mostly elite Vasiliki, with a small number of Minoans.

Let's put it this way, there is an invisible chain of discrimination against Vasiliki, the Minoans discriminate against the Vasiliki, and the elite Vasilicki discriminate against the non-elite Vasilicki.

The so-called elite Vasilicki, as the name suggests, are the more elite group of Vasilicki, and one can even say the spiritual Minoans.

They would be given some positions by the Minoans, such as Ron Kovind, who was a Vasiliki who guarded the Minoan interests.

They take pride in living in wealthy areas and crowd out their fellow citizens who do not belong to the elite.

As for the rest of the Vasiliki, some of them are muddy, like the one in Crete, where they don't starve, but they don't get rich.

There are also those who intend to change the whole situation through resistance.

Darcy, for example, is such a person.

But in the affluent area, it's hard to see both.

Most of them were well-dressed elite Vasilyaki, who would salute respectfully and smile at Xavier and Caroline when they saw Leana.
