Chapter 15: Unless I Die (Asking for Votes)
The Duke walked silently beside Li Ellie.
Thanks to Victoria's little angel, she chattered non-stop along the way, which made Li Aili not immediately escape from the royal capital in a carriage.
She was so anxious to deal with Victoria, she just wanted to hurry to the room, close the door, and leave Arthur's suffocating gaze.
The West Garden Annex of King Clark Palace is reserved for guests.
It has to be said that Harry Clark is a professional when it comes to enjoyment.
He built the West Garden like a hanging garden of wind spirits, with a pure 'nouveau riche' beauty.
That's what it's so expensive, just pile it up here.
As for the annex......
Then it is even more difficult to describe what was built.
I don't know if the 'Mad King' Harry Clark knew that Arthur Cold Jade used gold bricks to pave the floor.
The annex of the West Garden was directly plated with a layer of gold.
The whole building, when illuminated by the sun, is particularly ...... Glare.
Looking at Fischnanki's expression at the moment, you can know how bad Harry Clark's taste is.
That's really almost the 'disgust' on the face.
Of course, for Li Ellie, let alone let her live in a gilded house.
As long as she could have a room to herself, isolating her from Arthur Emerald, she would be thankful.
The West Garden Annex was built very large, and even so, Li Aili and Fischer Nanji each occupied one floor exclusively.
"So, Ellie, how about you live on the third floor, and let His Majesty Fischnanki live on the second floor?" Victoria arranged.
Li Aili thought to herself: Anything, please let me into the room quickly!
However, keep a smile on your face, "Okay." β
Fischer Nanki walked over to Arthur and whispered something.
Li Aili took the opportunity to carry her skirt and walked to the third floor.
Hurry up!
Don't look at the many doors on the third floor, but they are all study rooms, entertainment rooms, and tea rooms......
There was only one room to live in.
Victoria led Li to the only bedroom on the third floor and said with a smile, "This is it." β
Ellie stepped into the room, desperately trying to close the door, only to be stuck by Victoria's foot.
"Ellie," she cried out wryly, "you haven't complimented me on the beauty of my diamond ring!" β
Ellie Lee: "......"
Li Aili gave her a thumbs up, "Your diamond ring is so beautiful!" β
With that, she slammed the door shut.
Leaning against the door, she breathed a sigh of relief.
It's really weird.
When she divorced, there was no wave in her heart.
But when I see Arthur Cold Jade again today, she still can't be 'as still as water'.
She silently cheered herself up in her heart: Come on! Endure it a little longer, endure it until the end of the canonization ceremony, and you will be liberated!
There was a knock on the door.
Li Ellie sighed.
She can understand, really, that people have waited so long to resurrect their fiancΓ©s, show their affection, and forcibly feed people dog food...... It's really understandable.
Li Aili forced a smile and opened the door, "Victor......"
Then she saw Arthur, a tall man, standing in front of the door.
The ex-husband's face is still as damn good-looking as ever.
They were so close that Lee could smell the familiar scent of calendula perfume.
Her body's reaction preceded her brain, and she was about to close the door with her backhand.
However, the man's large, slender and powerful hand directly blocked the door.
No matter how hard Li Ali tried to breastfeed, she couldn't close the door.
It's good, it's a dragon lord who loses.
Li Ali opened the door, "Is there anything else?" β
She could see her reflection in those beautiful blue eyes.
Lee Allison felt that her gaze had nowhere to go.
Arthur's voice was a little hoarse, "Ellie, let's talk." β
It just so happened that Victoria's maid of the first class, who had been ordered to take care of Lee's daily life, came.
I happened to see this scene.
Maid: "............"
Ellie Lee: "......"
The maid didn't say anything, just hurriedly saluted, turned around and ran, ran!
Li Ellie felt that she didn't say anything, but she said everything.
Helplessly, in order to avoid any strange rumors from the palace the next day, she chose to let the duke into the house and make her words clear.
Arthur walked into the room and closed the door with his backhand.
Li Erin suddenly panicked and felt that it was not a good idea to be alone with her ex-husband in the bedroom.
The tall man looked down at her.
Li Aili inexplicably didn't dare to move.
She had a gut feeling that if she backed away, this man would be desperate to knock her down.
ββ¦β¦ What to talk about? Ellie spoke to distract Arthur.
But Arthur said, "The gemstone ring I gave you is more beautiful than the one Albert gave to Victoria." β
"But you didn't take it with you."
Ellie Lee: "......"
Arthur lowered his eyes to look at the slightly ill-fitting dress on Lie Lee.
"Your heart is so ruthless."
"You didn't take anything I gave you."
"You threw them all."
Li Ellie calmly called out the man's name, "Arthur." β
"We are divorced, according to the contract."
The word 'divorce' is like a spark that ignites a powder keg.
Arthur's somewhat reddened eyes stared at Li Ellie, and his hands were clasped on her shoulders with the strength of his strength.
"You say, we'll talk about it when we're done with the royal capital."
"But when I came back, you were already gone!"
"You didn't keep your promise, Ellie!"
Ellie Lee: "......"
"That's because, I don't think we have anything to say. β
Having said this, Li Aili simply asked directly.
"Okay, I'll ask you now."
"Have you come into contact with my biological father, the Marquis of Nice? Did you bring about my birth mother, Helen Sankoh, marrying him? β
Li Aili stared directly into those blue eyes, "Do you still need me to ask?" β
"Can you explain now?"
"Arthur Cold Emerald!"
The strength of the hand on the shoulder suddenly loosened.
Arthur's eyes were a little flustered, "Ellie, I'm ......"
"You can't say it yet, Ellie, but it's not what you think!"
Li Aili looked at him and said, "Arthur, I was there the day you went to the Papal Court, and I saw it all." β
"You and the devils, those paladins...... Arthur, these are things that I have seen with my own eyes. β
"Lee Ellie! Those gods have bad intentions! β
"Didn't you think that they were doing that to take you away from me!?" , he almost roared out the words.
Ellie Lee: "......"
"I don't think we have anything more to talk about, Arthur." Open the door directly and ask Arthur to leave.
Arthur looked at Lee in silence, and finally he relented.
Arthur walked out of Lie Lee's room, and before the door closed, he said, "Do you know that your love for me has been taken away by God? β
Li Aili was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"Albert reminded me."
Arthur gave her a deep look, "I'll help you get it back." β
Li Ellie knows that he is a stubborn person who decides what will not be changed easily.
She simply closed the door.
Just before the door closed completely, Arthur's voice came in, "Li Ellie, unless I die, you will never be with anyone else in your life." β
"Unless, I die."
