Coiling Dragon Chapter 15: Aggrieved
Chapter 15: Grievances
Talk to Alice alone? Is the Debs family suspected of smuggling? What good is it to talk to Alice? Obviously this Merritt was bad intentions. Nimitz has also experienced wind and waves, naturally like a mirror.
Nimitz narrowed her eyes and looked at Merritt.
Merrit, however, lay on the chair comfortably, and even closed her eyes to rest, without even looking at Nimitz. Merritt's attitude is very clear-want to let your family clean up injustice, let Alice talk to me.
Nimitz groaned for a moment, then laughed: "Master Merritt likes Master lei's 'dream awakening' stone carving. It is understandable to talk to Alice. OK, I will go back to Alice Tell me. "
Merrit, who has been closing her eyes and keeping her eyes closed, can not help but open her eyes and smile at Nimitz next to her: "Haha, then Nimitz please go back first. Just let Alice follow me Talk about it alone, I think, I will know more about your Debs family. "
Nimitz stood up immediately, humbly and politely, "Master Lord Merritt, I will leave first, and our Debs family will take care of Master."
Merit nodded slightly.
Nimitz retreated immediately.
Duke Merritt is alone in the living room at this moment.
Merit holds the glass, but whispers in his mouth, "Goddess, Alice ..." There was also a hint of contentment and longing on his face.
Merit, right-winger of the Kingdom of Finlay, was dubbed the Duke. The respect of status is higher than him in the Kingdom of Finlay, and can be counted with one hand.
A woman like him has never seen a woman.
Merit, she really likes women, but although he is in his seventies, he is equivalent to two or three hundred years old. Now in his seventies, Correct was the strongest. Merritt publicly had twelve wives. But there is a popular point among the nobles-
The wife at home is not as good as the lover outside, but the lover outside is not as good as herself. What is not available is the best.
But with Merritt's status, there are very few women already that he can't get. The women who can really make him fascinated are also rare.
Alice is indeed one of them.
Since the stone sculpture 'Wake Up' became famous, the woman in the stone sculpture is the 'Goddess' in many people's hearts! The goddess is unattainable, such as the status of Merritt, and naturally wants to get her goddess like Alice. But this matter is too difficult.
This time, it's an opportunity.
"Alice, goddess?" Merritt had a hard-to-conceal smile on her face, and immediately afterwards she drank the red wine in the glass.
Nimitz was sitting on the carriage with the back frowning deeply.
Alice is Kalan's fiancee!
If you ask Alice to meet Merritt alone, she will undoubtedly push Alice into the fire. Facing Carlan's blame in the future, he will manage to deal with it. But if this thing spreads, it will have a great impact on the Debs family.
"Well, if the family is finished, what reputation is there!" Nimitz shook his head and sighed.
Now that the Debs family already has reached the most critical moment, once the Debs family is judged to be smuggled, the entire family will be destroyed and the property will be completely taken away by King Klein. Although the Debs family already left a root outside, so that the family would not be cut off.
However, almost all industries of the Debs family are in the Kingdom of Finland.
In case of failure, the Debs family wants to regain its glory, but it does not know what year it will wait.
Compared to the future of the family, a little rumor is nothing. After all, when are the filthy things in the noble circle less rare?
"But Alice must agree to this matter." Nimitz was a little worried. "I can't force Alice to the right-hand mansion."
Alice's innocence, Nimitz didn't care. Just a woman!
But Nimitz understands ...
"This Alice has a special relationship with lei after all. If I force Alice to be known by that lei, then ..." Nimitz felt a little scared in his mind.
Lin Lei has a special status in Finlay.
Although he was named Marquis, lei is actually a member of the Holy See. Even before, Clyde also invited lei to become a noble in the Kingdom of Finlay. They also said that they did not care about each other.
Obviously, Clyde hopes to win over LEI.
Because the entire aristocracy of the Kingdom of Finlay understands that lei can easily become a white sacrifice of the Holy See if he wants to, and it is normal for lei to become a red bishop several decades later.
The Archbishop of the Red is higher than the King!
"Can't force it." Nimitz had a headache, and Alice wouldn't agree. He is in a position to think from the perspective of lei.
Alice is lei's first love after all! If Nimitz forced Alice to Merritt, she would lose her innocence. It is strange that lei is not furious!
In the Debs Family House.
There are many Debs family members in the living room, and Alice and Rowling also stay here. A large group of them were waiting for Nimitz to return.
They are all worried about the future of the Debs family!
"The second uncle is back, the second uncle is back." A middle-aged man standing at the door of the living room, looking forward to seeing Nimitz, immediately shouted.
The Debus family in the entire living room suddenly greeted Nimitz in a swarm. Alice and Rowling looked at each other, and immediately stood up and greeted them outside.
"Uncle, how's it going?" The middle-aged man asked immediately.
Nimitz looked at the group of people in front of him, and tried to squeeze a smile: "The situation is okay now. Everyone go back first, Alice, you stay, I have something to talk to you."
Nimitz is still very influential in the family. When he heard him, a group of people had to disperse one by one.
Alice is a little confused, why Nimitz wanted to talk to herself alone.
"Sister Alice, I'll go back to the room first." Rowling shook hands with Alice and whispered. In just a moment, Alice was alone in the entire living room.
Nimitz stepped into the living room.
"Grandpa, is there anything?" Alice said with a sullen expression.
Nimitz looked at Alice first, and smiled kindly: "Alice, don't be nervous, sit down first, let's talk." Nimitz sat down first.
In the past, she was extremely serious, and she didn't get used to her Nimitz. How could her attitude be so good today?
Alice was puzzled in her heart.
"You sit." Nimitz smiled kindly.
Alice sat aside stupidly.
Nimitz sighed, his eyes filled with sadness: "Alice, you and Karan just got engaged. I didn't expect this to happen to our Debs family. I don't know who secretly Framed my Debus family, if I knew it, I would kill him. "Nimitz's face showed a bit of sorrow, and then helplessly said," But now, the most important thing is to clean up our Debus family's grievances, Save Bernard and Carran. "
Alice nodded.
I'm just puzzled in my heart: "How can Grandpa Er talk to me about this?"
Nimitz looked at Alice and said sincerely, "Alice, I have something to ask you."
"Please, me?" Alice couldn't help but stand up.
In the Debs family, even the patriarchs respect Nimitz. Now that Nimitz had said "please her", how could Alice not be shocked.
"Alice, our Debs family is suspected of smuggling. This case was investigated by your right-hander, Merritt, and your right-hander, Merritt, is curious about you and wants to talk to you alone Chat. "
Nimitz urged immediately: "Alice. This is a rare opportunity to have a good relationship with Lord Merritt. As long as he has a good relationship with Lord Merritt, he will help us Debbe Family, Alice, you grew up with Caran, you won't see him in jail. "
Alice froze.
Single chat?
Alice is also living in a noble family, and she is very clear about the filthy scene inside the aristocracy. She guessed that meeting Merritt would never be that easy.
"I, I ..." Alice stuttered.
Nimitz begged: "Alice, we Debs family will see you. I can even guarantee that as long as you can have a good relationship with Lord Merritt, you can be Carlan's first wife. "
Alice felt confused at this moment.
Alice is still very clean.
Whether it is lei or kalan, she is holding on to the last level after all. Even if she was engaged to Carran, Alice had to wait until the big wedding before going to the same room.
Now let her deal with Merritt ...
"Alice, even if I beg you." Nimitz gritted his teeth and knelt down from the chair, begging, "Alice, Caran's life and death depend on you."
"Carlan's life and death?" Alice started.
Ka Lan grew up with her childhood. Especially in these days, the Debs family is often rumored, and it is also Caran who has been protecting her.
"Okay, I promise," Alice said with a grit.
Nimitz couldn't help but have a surprise on his face, and then quickly said, "Well, then, at tomorrow evening, I will arrange for you to go to Lord Merritt's House."
But Alice's face was pale at the moment, and she didn't respond at all.
Evening the next day.
A horse-drawn carriage exited the Debs Family Mansion under the guard of twelve knights, and was slowly moving towards Lord Merritt's Mansion. Inside the carriage, there was only Alice alone.
Alice sits quietly in the carriage, pursing her lips and clutching her long skirt tightly with both hands.
The carriage kept advancing, and soon came to the door of the residence of Lord Merritt.
"Alice Young Lady, here it is." The driver's voice came from outside.
Alice couldn't help but feel a shock in her heart. She touched her waist with her right hand. The hardness of the dagger around her waist made Alice's heart slightly fixed.
Taking a deep breath, Alice pushed the door open and got out of the carriage.
In the living room of the residence of the Duke of Merritt.
Alice, wearing a long skirt and a coat, is also considered to be stern. Stepping on, Alice walked calmly into the living room. Alice looked around, but there was no one in the living room.
"Well?" Alice frowned.
At this time, a female waiter came over and said respectfully: "Alice Young Lady, Lord Duke, he is in the study, and also asked Alice Young Lady to the study."
"Study?" Alice paused.
However, with the waiter's gaze, Alice strides.
The study is remote and secluded. There are very few people here. Walking to the door of the study, Alice saw a middle-aged man with blond hair walking at the desk and looking at some paper.
"This is Merritt?" Alice's first look at Merritt felt that Merritt was a very capable person. Even when sitting at the desk, the waist bars were straight and his eyes were so sharp.
"Master Duke, Alice Young Lady is here." The maid respected.
Merrit only looked up at this time, and saw Alice immediately stood up excitedly: "Haha, Alice Young Lady is here? I have waited a long time for already, come, Alice Young Lady, please Sit. "Merritt then stood up and walked towards Alice.
Alice goes into the study.
Alice looked around. There was a bookshelf on the right side of the study, with dense books on it. There is a bed to the left of the study.
"I usually rest here when I'm reading a book or I'm tired of handling government affairs." said Duke Merritt, smiling, walking to the door and closing the door of the study.
Alice can't help but be surprised when she sees that the study room door is closed, and only Melite and her are left inside.
"Master Merritt, the door is still open. I'm not used to too dark environment." Alice said quickly.
