Chapter 659 (1/2)
Aton glenwell deliberately lowered his voice. Only Lauren heard what he said. Lucian still stood behind with a blank face and looked around vigilantly.
The black haired wizard was surprised at first, then quickly calmed down, and his eyes narrowed into a slit:
”What do you mean?”
Should Charlotte be Duke of Byrne... Is he testing?
”Don't get me wrong, Lord Loren Turin, this is not a hypocritical clich é or temptation.” the count of storm castle's smile seemed to melt the ice and snow, and whispered in Loren's ear:
”Charlotte is like my own sister to me, so I sometimes can't help thinking about this problem; if I really want her to become Duke Byrne, is it really out of trust and blood recognition...”
”Or the dirty political compromise that made her a victim of everyone's interests?”
Lauren was silent, but her eyebrows frowned.
He was a little uncertain; The other party's expression doesn't seem to be lying, but it's not easy to determine whether it's really tempting.
”So... Are you not going to help Charlotte, or are you going to be Duke Byrne yourself?”
”No, on the contrary; once anyone who is not a Turin family becomes the Duke of Byrne, the blow to the whole Byrne will be devastating - which means that Byrne will split or give the Empire an opportunity to participate in Byrne's internal affairs.”
Aton smiled softly and his beautiful eyes glittered: ”so at this point, I absolutely support the red blood Castle - storm castle can't, twelve Knight lords can't, and only the Turin family has this qualification.”
But... The dark haired wizard whispered in his heart.
”But do you really want Charlotte to carry such a heavy burden?” Aton sighed in a low voice, and the luster in his pupils was very complex: ”you know... I met Yuli weiltz a long time ago.”
Lauren glanced sharply, her eyes alert.
What the hell is he trying to say
”At that time, I didn't inherit my father's title, but Yuli vilz was already a Duke... He was only ten years old, so small, his crown was bigger than his head, and his cloak almost wrapped him in it, like a cobweb tightly bound to his body.”
”But when I saw him, his cold face, his eyes without any emotion, his petite but desperate figure... I did see a real Duke who could make people kneel in front of him willingly.”
”At the age of weak crown, she has to bear a burden that ordinary people can't imagine, which will inevitably make people sad; and Charlotte, if she wants to become Duke Byrne, she will only bear a thousand times more than Yuli veltz!”
The Earl of storm Castle said slightly, ”Yuli weiltz, he is just a stranger with some admiration and regret to me, and Charlotte... Is my blood relative.”
”What I said is very selfish, but I don't care if this kind of thing happens to others, but I can't accept that this kind of thing will happen to my own blood relatives!”
Sighing, Aton put his right hand on the black haired wizard's shoulder:
”I can't watch her... Like Yuli weiltz, put on the skin of hypocrisy and indifference, and be strong in death and loneliness.”
”Even if I have to pay some price, I will protect her.”
Lorraine glanced, and he finally understood what the count of storm Castle wanted to say.
Looking back at the gray pupil behind him, Lucian didn't seem to notice the dialogue between them; Of course, it may also be that he deliberately pretended not to hear and kept silent.
”Marriage.” the dark haired wizard raised his head and looked sideways at Aton Grenville. ”You want to marry the Turin family and become Charlotte's husband.”
”This is the only way I can think of to solve all the problems.” the count of storm Castle admitted it without concealment and said softly:
”Turin is in the north and Glenville is in the south. The descendants of the knight king will rise again after Duke black. No one in the Lord of all Byrne will have the strength to question Charlotte, and I can protect her in good faith.”
”If so, why do you have to talk to me about this?”
Laurent did not change his face and asked, ”I'm just Turin; for red blood castle, I'm even half an outsider.”
”There are many reasons, partly because of Charles.”
Aton sighed helplessly again: ”because of this brother, although I have tried my best to be nice to her, I still can't make Charlotte really trust me... So, I have to have another reliable person to help.”
