My Venus, I didn't want to hurt you, but you blocked my way, so I had no choice but to let you accompany me in another way.

"Snapped!!!"

A crisp and powerful slap echoed in the bedroom. It was so sudden that Celia didn't even have time to react.

It wasn't until a burning pain appeared in her cheek that she realized what was happening.

"You bastard, do you know what you have done? You have disgraced the Clark family and your noble honor!

"The family has trained you to perfection, is this how you repay the family, is this how you repay your father?

"Celaya, I thought you had grown up and were a sensible child, but now I want to take back this idea. You are worse than a prostitute in the Red Falls District."

Celia opened her eyes wide in disbelief, she had thought her father was just overbearing and strict, but she had never expected him to say such words.

In his eyes, I am not even as good as a prostitute.

Warmth welled up in her eyes, but only at this moment did she not want to show her vulnerable side. However, how could she hold back after more than ten years of being raised?

"You still have the nerve to cry. The future of the Clark family is ruined by you alone.

"If you marry His Majesty, the entire kingdom will be ours. Don't even mention a woman. What else do you want to do?"

As if she had vented enough, Carla's tone slowed down, "Celia, think about it carefully. Would your father harm you again? Go and make a public statement tomorrow. It was Axosenio who threatened you and made you..."

Before he could finish his words, a firm voice with a hint of sobs interrupted him resolutely: "Father, I will not change my mind."

"You!" The finger that Kara was pointing at Celia trembled several times, and finally she took it back viciously.

"Well, you are worthy of being my daughter. Since you don't want to marry His Majesty the King, then marry the dirtiest beggar in Dam Country. You were born in the Clark family, and you will die here even if you die."

"Father!"

"You have two days to consider." After saying that, Kara left without looking back, and asked the knight to keep watch on the door.

The light outside the door was completely turned off, and Celia collapsed weakly. Is this the father I admired and feared the most?

He wouldn't even extend the date for a few more days.

Celia looked at the poison in her hand that she had made herself. She thought her father probably wouldn't even give her an extra glance. Anyway, no one cared about her and she had no worries anymore.

Celia looked up and out the window. She had never felt the sun was so glaring.

The night comes quietly.

Celia, holding the empty bottle, stared blankly out the window. She could feel her life slipping away and she probably wouldn't see the sun tomorrow.

Anyway, there's nothing to see.

It's just that it seems to be particularly dark tonight. No, it's not dark. When did a person stand in front of me? !

Celia subconsciously wanted to scream and call for the servants, but the poison seemed to have the effect of losing her voice. She was unable to shout out at the first moment, and her mouth was covered by someone immediately.

"Don't scream, it's me."

This voice...

Celia nodded obediently, and the hand covering her mouth was removed.

"Why are you here?" The low and hoarse voice was even more unpleasant than expected.

“After-sales service.”

"?"

There was a big doubt in Celia's small eyes.

Not to mention Celia was confused, even she herself was confused as to why she had to sneak here in the middle of the night?

It was her fault. She got up in the middle of the night and chatted with the elves out of boredom, and ended up finding out about Celia.

It would be fine if she didn't know, but who can blame her for being a dog lover?

"Do you want to control your own destiny? Do you want to know the meaning of life?"

"What are you talking about?" She used to think that this person was a scoundrel, but now she realized that she couldn't understand her at all.

“You just need to answer yes and no.”

The meaning of life is too abstract for Celia, but is it controlling one's own destiny?

Can I really do this?

Having lived under the influence of his father since childhood, he is now going against his father's ideas and causing serious damage to the Clark family. Is it really possible for him to be like this?

"I......"

Celia raised her head. Perhaps because of the effect of the poison, or perhaps because the room was too dark, she could only see the outline of the person in front of her in the moonlight.

At this moment, Celia couldn't help but think, 'What is she thinking?'

Celia's body suddenly trembled as a finger was pressed against her heart.

“Just follow your heart.”

These words seemed to have some magical power, which made Celia's anxiety, fear, uneasiness, self-abandonment...all turn into blankness.

At this moment, her mouth expressed her truest thoughts and she answered in a decisive tone.

"Yes."

Bai Qingge, whose face could not be seen, said calmly, "Well, I have received your answer."

Then Bai Qingge clapped his hands twice, and another black figure fell into the house as nimbly as a kitten.

"Rui An, take us away."

The resistance of flying blew away the hood that Bai Qingge had been wearing on his head, revealing a face that looked hopeless underneath the hood.

This was the second time someone had carried him around in the Gaizi nest and flown away.

Celia chuckled.

"What are you laughing at?" This is definitely a joke on yourself.

"Haha, nothing." The god-like figure just now made her feel unfamiliar.

And now the other party's childish and sulky look made her feel that the distance between them was not far. This feeling of being within reach made her feel at ease.

Finally, after Bishop Avaso cleared the poison from Celia, she was arranged to go to the fiefdom to manage it as her second-in-command.

This was her chance to give Celia control of her own destiny.

But then again, apart from sending money to the fiefdom over the years, it seemed that he had not taken care of anything else. Rui Ran was only in charge of all matters big and small in the Duke's Mansion.

But with her own reputation, Celia shouldn't have a hard time... That's not right.

It’s easy to imagine how dissatisfied the people below would be if a leader was parachuted in from above.

But the opportunity has been given to her, and whether she can seize it depends on her own ability.

As a foreign surname, Celaia also indirectly brought disrepute to the name of Excelsior.

She felt it was difficult to manage the territory that she hadn't visited for more than ten years, so she specially assigned her personal guards to Celia.
