Chapter 124 Hall's Ball
After Will Asceptin and his son left, Louise took the maid and got into the newly rented carriage and headed to Viscount Connor's house in Queens to prepare for the evening dance... Speaking of which, she also
I wonder who the host of the dance is...
The maid noticed that Louise seemed to be worried, so she sat next to her and helped her massage her shoulders with gentle movements and moderate strength.
Enjoying Sophia's professional service, Louise recalled her previous communication with Will Asceptin.
It was indeed the long-awaited meeting that helped her solve many mysteries surrounding herself.
First of all, Louise finally got the answer to the incongruity of her fate that she has been doubting since time travel.
His own destiny has been manipulated, and even the "Snake of Destiny" in Sequence 1 cannot be seen, so who is the real mastermind behind it? Could it be the same person who caused him to travel through time?
It seems that there are not many beings with authority over destiny...
First of all, exclude the "Bound God" and the "Snake of Destiny". They don't even know their identity as time travelers... However, Will Auceptin mentioned the "Night Goddess". What does this have to do with him?
, I'm not Klein... Could it be that He has also placed a bet on me, but I don't have the ability to stay awake in my dreams...
Perhaps, I should change my faith to the "Goddess of the Night"... Well, for the people of the big foodie empire, it is considered a routine operation. They will believe in whoever is more useful...
After thinking about it, the carriage slowly stopped and it was obvious that it had reached Queens.
Tonight the Viscountess looked bright and charming, wearing a fluffy evening dress with a low neckline, revealing her delicate collarbones and deep breast line. There was no trace of the fact that she was a mother with two adult children... worth it
One thing to mention is that she wears a diamond necklace on her chest, which is exactly the one Louise gave her yesterday, which fully expresses her goodwill.
In comparison, Louise was much simpler. She didn't like the fashionable clothes of the aristocrats of this era. They were complicated and bloated, the waist was too tight, and unhealthy... So, she just wore a plain long skirt with a shawl hanging behind her back.
Wearing a cloak, it looks independent, but it does not affect the amazing charm it exudes.
The two boarded the carriage, and Louise asked aloud: "Who is the host of tonight's ball? Why didn't I see Mr. Viscount Connor?"
The Viscountess smiled and replied: "The host of the ball is Count Hall's wife. The reason why Connor was not invited is because this is not a formal social ball. Most of the invited guests are young people..."
In fact, Louise stopped listening... There was only one thought in her mind, Earl Hall's wife, isn't that Miss Justice Audrey's mother...
She had just met Will Asceptin in the afternoon and was about to meet Audrey in the evening. Louise was deeply surprised by this.
…………
Compared with the simplicity and monotony of 59 Egram Street, Earl Hall's mansion is more luxurious, but not conventional.
Exquisite chandeliers illuminate every corner of the hall, and luxurious carpets are comfortable and tidy.
Ormere red wine, mist champagne... pan-fried keel fish, baked lobster... all kinds of fine wine and food are available.
Accompanied by the melodious music, Louise, led by the Viscountess, met Countess Hall's wife...and of course her daughter, Audrey Hall.
Her long golden hair flows down smoothly, her emerald green eyes are like the purest gems, her delicate facial features, and her waist that can be easily grasped, and her temperament is noble and pure.
As an "audience", Audrey naturally discovered that when this strange woman saw her, there was deep excitement and excitement in her eyes... This is not surprising. Although the woman in front of her is equally beautiful,
She has enough confidence in her appearance... The point is, Audrey feels that the excitement shown by the other party seems to be because she knows her...
Soon, new guests arrived. Audrey and Mrs. Hall went to greet them, while Louise calmed down and walked into the ball hall.
As the Viscountess said, most of the guests attending the ball were young men and women. There were no middle-aged male nobles with high positions at all. Even Earl Hall did not appear. It seemed that there were more important things.
According to later generations, this should be regarded as a blind date party... Louise didn't know if others had the same idea, but she felt it clearly... because the Viscountess was constantly introducing her to the ball.
of young men…
"This is Gray Lint, the noble Viscount."
Louise felt that the name was very familiar, and quickly recalled in her mind that he was the tool man who introduced Forsi to Audrey, and he was the Viscount Gray Linte who wanted to become a "pharmacist"... In other words, these
Do nobles all have a soft spot for "pharmacists"? Charlie is the same way... Well, he is also a noble, so that's okay...
Then, the Viscountess introduced: "This is Miss Louise, from the Southern Continent, who is also very outstanding."
Louise had been impatient for a long time, and finally saw a familiar person, so she simply stayed. So, she stretched out her right hand and followed the etiquette of the aristocracy, allowing the other person to give him a virtual kiss.
"Hello, Viscount Graylingt."
Gray Linte complimented: "Hello, Miss Louise, your beauty makes tonight's ball even more exciting."
Louise took back her right hand, smiled, and then said:
"I used to feel the same way, but after I just met Miss Audrey, I realized that I used to sit in a well and look at the sky."
Gray Lint responded with a smile: "Audrey has a title, Backlund's most dazzling gem."
"A very appropriate metaphor." Louise nodded with deep understanding, and at the same time added in her mind, it will soon turn into diamond...
The viscountess next to her watched this scene with a smile and said easily: "I hope you can have a good night."
Taking a glass of champagne from the passing waiter, Louise took a sip and said with emotion:
"I have also attended many dance parties in the Southern Continent, but none of them are as luxurious as tonight's dance."
Gray Lint took a glass of red wine and held it in his hand, and explained carefully:
"Earl Hall is a member of the House of Lords, the leader of the New Party, and one of the top bankers in Loen. He has great influence in Backlund."
Then, he asked curiously: "Miss Louise doesn't look like she's from the Southern Continent?"
Louise said modestly, and then replied: "My parents are both Loen people. They just went to the Southern Continent to run business very early, but they never relaxed their education on me."
"So that's it..." Gray Linte withdrew his gaze from Louise's delicate face, looked in front of him, and said with a smile:
"If you had been living in Backlund, I'm afraid half of Miss Audrey's title would be taken away by you!"
"I heard someone talking about me!"
A clear and sweet voice came from behind. Louise turned her head and found that it was Audrey. Then she realized that Gray Linte's words just now were meant for Audrey. It seemed that
The relationship between the two is pretty good...
"Haha, I was praising our Backlund's most dazzling gem to Miss Louise!" Gray Linte said with a smile.
Audrey didn't mind either. She turned to look at Louise, her smile slowly blooming:
Chapter completed!
