Chapter 20 After the Appointment

Leaning on the handrail of the stairs, I looked sideways at the man on the sofa with a teacup and a very elegant movement.

He sat with his back to me, the back of the couch almost completely blocking him, and even when I looked down from the stairs, I could only see that he was holding the cup gracefully.

The white porcelain teacup with a pale pattern, held in his fine white hand, is very beautiful.

Danny sat across from him, and the two seemed to be talking, too far away for me to hear, but looking at the seriousness on Danny's face, I could probably guess that they were probably not talking about something that was good for the Bloodline, or rather, something bad for Ridard.

I stood up the stairs for a moment, and Danny spotted me, stood up, and nodded respectfully at me.

Actually, as soon as I came down the stairs, Danny began to pay attention to me, but he didn't show it, just now he saw me standing on the stairs for a long time, and finally couldn't help but remind me.

Knowing that I was discovered, I couldn't continue to stand here, so I pursed my lips and went downstairs to say hello, "The viscount is so idle, how can you have time to come here for tea?"

"Ahh Hearing someone speak behind him, Abernet put down the cup in his hand, glanced back, and immediately stood up excitedly and walked to me, "I didn't expect to meet Miss Donaldson again, it's ......"

I walked around Abernet and sat down where Danny had been sitting.

The breath on Abernat's body made me very uncomfortable, that hostile feeling, very deep.

Perhaps it was a delusion, but I always felt that Aburnat was a little intimidated by Danny's attitude, and sitting next to Danny, the feeling of being hostile was much less.

My joining made the conversation between Abernate and Danny go on, Danny stood aside with his head bowed and didn't speak, and Abernet was still the same as last time, chirping and talking.

I sat patiently across from Aburnat and listened to him tease.

Suddenly I felt as if my patience was running out, listening to Sharman's scolding in the morning and Abernat's teasing in the afternoon, it seemed that my life was too boring now, and I needed to find something to spend it.

Casually swept the cups on the table to the ground, and the thin porcelain cups landed on the heavy stalls, barely making a sound, but the brown tea soaked the soft cashmere.

"The carpet is dirty. I smiled and looked up at Danny, "Let the people clean up, and I'll take the guests out for a walk." ”

Regardless of Danny's reaction, I straightened up and walked out.

Walking with Aburnat to a secluded corner of the courtyard, I looked around to make sure no one was watching, and then asked in a low voice, "This is the territory of the Bloods, I don't know why the Viscount is here." ”

Abernet smiled lowly, and his gentlemanly demeanor remained undiminished, "It is said that Miss Katie is in the blood clan, so Andrew came to try his luck." ”

"By the way, learn about the secrets of the Bloodline?" I looked at Abernet suspiciously, this pseudo-gentleman who couldn't tell if he was a wizard or a werewolf, he shouldn't care about Katie's life or death.

Hearing my question, Abernat's smile paused, and then put away the pretended gentleman on his face, the corners of his mouth raised, and his face was full of evil charm, "I know you don't really want to stay here, if you are willing to help me, I will take you away......"

"And make sure I'm safe in the future?"

I sneered, if it was so easy to leave, I would have left long ago while I was still in the castle.

If I had to choose between being pursued by the Bloodlines and being placed under house arrest, I would have to choose the latter.

"If Miss Katie doesn't mind, you can stay in my house in the future, and the entire Abernet family will do their best to protect you. ”

Aburnat threw out an olive branch, but the sound of eager footsteps next to me made me have no time to think about the answer to the question, and pulled Abernet deeper into the courtyard.
