Chapter 423: Cutting the grass will eradicate the roots
Looking at Lear's back as he turned to leave, Victor remembered that he still owed Mona an answer.
Although Victor has never been married, he is by no means a pure-hearted person. On the contrary, in a way, he is even a merry man! only he prefers to be casual rather than scheming like Lear.
In fact, Lear also misunderstood what Victor meant, Victor didn't have anything wrong with Mona in his heart, and the person he was really interested in was Xiao Bao'er.
This kid's martial arts talent is really good!
At the beginning, Li Zijun was reluctant to give up on Xiao Baoer, in fact, this is also the reason. If it was in Dongyu China, Li Zijun would definitely try his best to accept Xiaobaoer as an apprentice.
But now Li Zijun can't protect himself, so he has to give up this idea for the time being.
The reason why Victor walked into the restaurant was because he saw the naughty little Bao'er, which had nothing to do with Mona.
What Victor didn't expect was that Lear not only misunderstood his thoughts, but actually killed all of Xiao Bao'er's grandparents in order to pat himself on the back.
There is no impermeable wall in the world! If this happens, Victor can no longer take Xiao Bao'er as an apprentice, and cutting the grass and eradicating the roots seems to be his only choice!
If it weren't for Hamilton and Cora, Victor would have killed the killer, but now that he had lost that opportunity, he had no choice but to choose a more helpless method. That is to ensure that Xiao Baoer spends this life doing nothing!
This was originally not difficult for Victor, but after this period of contact with Mona, he became more and more accustomed to the service of this nodding and intelligent woman by his side.
Although Victor does not have any love for Mona, he does not have any affection for men and women. But he formed an inexplicable dependence, which also made him hesitate to deal with Monna's mother and son.
"Mona. You should give me a good word, can I adopt Xiao Bao'er?" Cora tells Mona straight to the point where she thinks about it.
"Boss Cora, although my father-in-law and mother-in-law are gone, but I'm still here, I can raise Xiao Bao'er with my own strength, I don't understand why you would ask me for this?!" Mona never thought that Cora had pulled her here to adopt Xiao Bao'er, and she asked Cora with a little dissatisfaction.
"Mona, I believe it won't be long before you return to the capital with Lord Victor, and when you arrive in the capital. Your main task is to serve the adults well, how can you have time to take care of Xiao Bao'er? In that kind of environment, how can Xiao Bao'er grow up healthily? Be sensible, Xiao Bao'er is the best choice for you!"
"I can assure you that I will take Xiao Bao'er to Beijing to see you at least once a year, I am just his godmother, and it will not affect your mother's status!"
"I'm going to ask Lord Victor to keep me in Hucaro City!" Mona became agitated at Cora's words, and she jerked up and walked out the door.
"Do you think it would be useful? Don't you think you're overestimating your place with the adults?"
"Even if the adults agree that you will stay in Hucaro City, how will you survive next? We don't know, what if they come back to you to get revenge?, do you have what it takes to keep little Bao'er basically safe?" Cora's series of questions completely stupidized Mona, and she stood in a dilemma.
"For your own happiness and for Xiao Bao'er to grow up healthily, it is your best choice to hand him over to me to raise!"
"I may not be able to get him ahead, though. But I can definitely guarantee him happiness and happiness. Can you do all of this, can you think about it?"
"Let him be a boss like you?" Cora, who was constantly pressed by Cora, was anxious, and her words were no longer blocked.
"First of all. I'm going to tell you, I'm no longer the boss of Hundred Flowers Building. Soon after. I will marry Hamilton and become the mistress of this castle!"
"Secondly. I don't think there's anything wrong with being a brothel owner, as long as you don't do anything bad and support yourself with your own ability, there's nothing wrong with anything!"
"Don't think things are too rosy, and don't think you're the smartest! at least no one here is stupid than you!" Cora said angrily, looking at Mona coldly.
Stimulated by Cora's words, Mona's face immediately turned pale!
Mona is not stupid, on the contrary, she is also ice and snow smart, for so many days, she has already noticed something from all kinds of signs, but she has been pretending to be confused, she hopes to be able to rely on her own sacrifice and hard work to fight for a bright future for Xiao Bao'er.
But how can enemies give each other a future?!
Although Cora didn't say these four words directly, the meaning of her words had been exposed, and her words completely shattered Mona's sweet dreams!
"Are you really going to be nice to little Bao'er?" Mona finally began to waver.
"You also know my origin, I probably don't have any children of my own in my life, I like Xiao Bao'er because I feel that I have a fate with him, I will treat him like my own biological child!"
"There is another reason, has there been a lot of things in your family during this time, and it seems that there are not only a few of us who have saved you?" Cora suddenly lowered her voice, meaning something.
"What did you say?" Li Zijun once told Meng Na not to tell him about his treatment of Xiao Bao'er. Mona didn't understand that Kora seemed to know very well about what she was doing, and she looked at Korra in surprise and asked.
"I didn't say anything! For you and Xiao Bao'er to have a future, I advise you not to say anything!"
Monna's mind was completely distracted, and she stood in the doorway feeling a dilemma.
"Today the adults drew a portrait, it should be him. The Lord said he was an enemy, but who was he?" Mona hesitated, but finally couldn't help but ask Cora.
"Grand Duke Dongyu loves Radlaide!I'm sure you won't be too unfamiliar with this name!" Kora paused for a moment, but still told Mona Li Zijun's true identity.
"It's really him!"
"Why, you guessed that he was the one who saved Xiao Bao'er?" Cora asked with some surprise when she saw Mona's expression.
"My brother is an apprentice in magic, and every time he mentions Archduke Edlaide, his face is full of yearning. This emotion of his also affected me, and when I saw the Grand Duke using magic to help Xiao Bao'er, I imagined that it was him, but I didn't expect it to be him!" Mona smiled wryly and shook her head.
"He will always appear in front of you inadvertently, he himself looks far less magical and tall than the legend, but once he leaves, those who have come into contact with him will always think of him uncontrollably!"
"It's just undeniable that he is a person in Fengqi who can't be mentioned casually, and you have to always remember this. Especially to the person you're going to serve!" Cora sighed and reminded Mona.
"Does it have anything to do with him if you want to adopt Xiao Bao'er?"
"What do you say?"
"I have to see Xiao Bao'er at least twice a year!" Mona struggled for a while, and finally she finally made up her mind.
"Deal!" Cora smiled and raised her right palm to Mona.
"What, you agreed to have Korra adopt Xiao Bao'er?" Victor brought Mona to inform her of her preparation to return to Beijing with him, but unexpectedly, Mona gave him a big surprise first.
"Little Bao'er is your 'heart', are you willing to leave him in the care of someone else?" Victor asked Mona about Cora and Hamilton's intentions.
"I can't do this! Over the past few years, I have found myself more and more that not only can I not take good care of Xiao Bao'er, but I will also cause him a lot of troubles, and these troubles will even endanger his life! I can't be a good mother at all!" At this, Mona's tears fell uncontrollably.
"You're thinking too much!" Victor sighed and got up to hand a handkerchief to Mona's hand.
"It's a fact!"
"Boss Corra, she likes little Bao'er! Although she will marry the Hamilton Warden soon, her previous experience has made it difficult for her to have children of her own. She also promised me that she would treat Xiao Bao'er like her own child!For the sake of Xiao Bao'er's future, I can only make this choice!" Mona was so sad at this time that she blocked her face with the handkerchief that Victor handed her, and she couldn't stop convulsing!
"If you want, you can take Xiao Bao'er back to the capital with me, and Xiao Bao'er's future will be guaranteed!" Victor saw Mona's barely suppressed shoulders, his heart softened, and he comforted her.
Hearing Victor's words, Mona paused slightly, but then she thought of Cora's reminder. Now there is an extra variable of Edlaide in the hatred between Xiao Baoer and Victor, and if Xiao Baoer leaks the relationship between the two one day, it is difficult to guarantee what Victor will do.
Mona was frightened, and quickly rejected Victor's kindness:
"Little Bao'er is more accustomed to living in Hucaro City, Boss Cora should be a good mother, I believe that Little Bao'er will be very happy under her care!
"It's not a problem, but now that you've made your decision, I'm not going to force you anymore. ”
"Originally, I was going to take you and Xiao Bao'er to set off together, and then send someone to send you back to the capital ahead of schedule. Now it seems that when I return to the capital, I should ask General Hamilton to send you over, so that you can spend more time with Xiao Bao'er!"
"Thank you, sir!" Mona knelt gratefully in front of Victor.
"Alright, alright, hurry up!" Vickon said as he pulled Mona up from the ground. (To be continued......)
