Elizabeth finally accepted the fact that she would be the owner of a strange book, but she still remained skeptical of Caius' interpretation of the dream.

Of course she believed that even Caius lied to her for a valid reason, maybe because she couldn't help her or maybe she wanted to reassure her, but Elizabeth decided that since she was chosen for this book, there were some aspects of the problem. It must be solved by herself, she didn't reveal this idea, she knew that Caius would not agree.

Obviously, there is a gap between the world of vampires and the world of wizards. Elizabeth always feels that her ability to travel through time and space is not given to her by that book. If the function of the pyramids since ancient times is tombs...they will return to Cattleya this winter vacation. You will have the opportunity to verify your conjecture.

Although she was actually unscathed and just a little frightened, the elevator accident that happened some time ago still gave her grandfather a big jump. After all, Alva's family has experienced the trauma of a catastrophe, so Elizabeth has been watched very closely these days.

But she can also understand her grandfather's feelings, so even if she really doesn't want to participate in the charity auction tonight, she still comes with her grandfather.

Ever since she got together with Caius, Elizabeth instinctively wanted to avoid such face-showing activities. She had no intention of dressing up properly, and she was not interested in any behaviors that looked for presence.

"Be happy." Caius slid his cold fingers up her bare shoulders, and Elizabeth leaned back on his collarbone.

"I will," she smiled, "I'm with the most handsome man tonight."

Caius tightened his fingers around her shoulders and then relaxed. He lowered his voice, "I'm so jealous."

"Will you be in the garden?" Elizabeth asked softly.

"You can guess." He lowered his head and kissed her smooth shoulder and neck fascinatedly, "Guess when I stole you away."

"If it's too dramatic." Elizabeth tilted her head and rubbed his side face, threatening with a smirk, "There is a high probability that I won't go with you."

The charity gala was arranged at the famous Salah mansion. When the night fell, a long red carpet had been laid in front of the door. Reporters surrounded the two sides with long guns and short cannons, separated by a human wall built by bodyguards. Today There were quite a few dignified people present at night, so the security work was done very carefully.

Harry used to be the chief lawyer of the host who hosted this charity gala, and their friendship has continued until now. The Alva family was invited as friends, and they didn’t mean to enjoy the red carpet. Elizabeth quickly entered the door with her grandpa on her arm. At that time, the flash was still in one piece.

"This is what financial journalists and social journalists are doing now," Harry lamented.

Elizabeth smiled, "Because compared to those cold news, everyone wants to see that rich man who is more handsome and more beautiful and full of gossip."

"Your younger generation pay more attention to appearance." Harry smiled and shook his head.

"So eat healthy and maintain your weight." Elizabeth replied seriously, "It's a good thing."

Seeing grandpa's old friends gradually gather around to talk to him, Elizabeth politely avoided after saying hello.

She has been here before, and she is quite familiar with the terrain. She can accurately find out where there are few people without asking the waiter who walks through the shadows of clothes and temples holding a tray.

In order not to run into acquaintances, she took a detour. Salah’s mansion is decorated with magnificence, but it pales in comparison to the underground palace of Volterra. The marble floor makes a crisp sound under the high-heeled shoes, and the curtains are lowered on both sides. The floor-to-ceiling windows were open, and there was no one in the long corridor.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows. It sounded like a man and a woman. Elizabeth quickened her pace and decided to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.

But unfortunately, she had only walked a few steps when someone rushed out angrily when she lifted the curtain and just blocked her, Elizabeth stopped helplessly.

This is a tall boy with a handsome appearance, his eyebrows and eyes are very close together, and he looks a little gloomy. His ear-length blond hair is quite light in color, but it matches his snow-white skin very well.

The boy was so familiar, he looked like a more grown-up version of, "Landon?"

"...Elizabeth." The anger on Langdon's face dissipated and was replaced by surprise, and he hadn't heard from Elizabeth for a long time.

A red-haired beauty chased out from the floor-to-ceiling windows. While her eyes were red, she grabbed Langdon's clothes and looked at Elizabeth vigilantly.

"Elizabeth?" The girl sniffed aggrievedly, "You are Elizabeth?"

"I am." Elizabeth greeted her with a fake smile, "Hello, I am Elizabeth Alva."

"No wonder you didn't spend my anniversary with me today, you insisted on coming here!" The girl burst into tears suddenly, and Elizabeth was startled.

"Flora!" Langdon withdrew his attention instantly and hurriedly explained, "I didn't know Lisa would come either."

"You, you've been calling her by her nickname after so long?" Flora cried like she was going to lose her breath.

Elizabeth stood there in embarrassment. She never expected that Langdon would find this type of girlfriend later, and she looked completely helpless with her.

Now that they have been seen, it would seem strange to continue walking into the dark garden alone. In addition, these two people blocked the way, and Flora looked like Langdon would not leave without an explanation. Elizabeth decided to go first. Go back to the hall.

So she said directly, "Miss Flora, I have a boyfriend... and Mr. Dupont and I haven't seen each other for a long, long time. If you have something to say, speak slowly, and I'll go first."

"I..." Langdon raised his head and looked at Elizabeth's back, as if he wanted to speak, but Flora held him tightly, his heartbroken look made him unable to say anything in the end.

After going around for a long time, she returned to the hall. Elizabeth took a glass of champagne and sipped it. Although she was caught off guard to see Langdon tonight, her mood was not disturbed but she wanted to laugh.

After all, first love is always special, especially when family and friends are not optimistic about it. Elizabeth stroked the line of words on her arm that was covered under concealer. Now she understands what true love is like.

Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed that Langdon and Flora had also returned to the hall. Elizabeth stood up and carefully changed seats, keeping as far away from them as possible, but her grandfather quickly found her.

Before she could ask her grandfather how the conversation was going, several handsome middle-aged people suddenly walked down the grand staircase in the middle. They were all important figures of the party, including Langdon and Flora The two of them walked to their father consciously, and the eyes of the people in the hall followed them in surprise or envy, and Elizabeth was no exception. As a result, her eyes just collided with Flora, who was beautiful and mature. Contrary to her appearance, Flora pouted at her like a child.

Elizabeth looked away expectantly and looked outside the door. While controlling herself not to laugh, she wondered, which big shot was late?

She didn't wonder how long.

A familiar figure strode into the door, and the two people around him trotted and struggled to follow his footsteps. The light illuminated his face, causing an uproar in the crowd, and young men and women began to whisper excitedly, just like a king walking into his meeting. The living room—Cairus appeared so easily.

Elizabeth stood up in surprise.
