Heather who counterattacked

At dusk, Felix finally got his guest.

He wasn't in the slightest of impatience—even though he knew that His Excellency had arrived very early, he stood under the fragrant locust tree outside the corridor, and didn't look away for a long time, until it was getting late, and he left calmly.

Cyril stood there with his head slightly raised, staring at the purple flowers that were about to bloom, reminding him of his second wife.Most of the time, she was like that too. For some reason, she just stood quietly in front of the flower tree, looking at the vigorous tree shape, the bright flower colors... Looking at the figure that seemed to overlap in the hallucination, he seemed to be able to understand. What.

It was not until he stood in front of him that Felix could take a closer look at this distinguished lord.He was still a young man, with a fabulously handsome appearance and a slender and elegant figure. He did not carry the melancholy or pessimistic emotions that poets usually have. Instead, he was as quiet and solemn as a wind staying in place.A person who is used to keeping all his thoughts and emotions in his heart so that others cannot pry them, even if he looks into his eyes, he can't see through him at all.

For four whole years, there were [-] love poems, each of which was unparalleled in classics and exquisite, and almost wrote all the poems about love in the world.There is only one person in the world who can do such a feat!But even if Felix tried his best to get a glimpse of his appearance from his poems, he could only feel the pure and fiery emotion he wanted to express, and nothing else.

"Nice to meet you, Your Excellency." The supreme leader of the Kane family bowed slightly and said to him, "Please forgive me for not being able to greet you."

He seemed to put himself on a very low profile from the start.

Cyril was also looking at him.It can be seen that he was originally a very tall and strong figure, even sitting in a wheelchair, he still has a fearsome aura, but the disease has eroded most of his body, and he is so thin that he is a little out of shape. Obviously, he should be full of heart. At an age when ambitions are urgently needed for long-distance voyages, the vicissitudes of life are almost like an old man.Even if his boldness is still enough to convince people, it still makes the bystanders feel a sense of sadness in their hearts, that he will not live long.

The most painful thing for people is that they are forced to face the approaching footsteps of death even though they still have ambitions and abilities.To some extent, Xi Ruier developed a feeling of sympathy with this man.

But he should hate him.Married the woman he loved, but let her pass away at such a young age.As long as he thinks about it, he has the urge to destroy everything.

There was no response, and Felix wasn't surprised at all.As he spoke, he turned the wheelchair with difficulty, and took a thick stack of documents from the desk: "I have always wanted to see you, but I can't seem to convince myself. I didn't think of you until... I realized that I really didn't have time. .” His tone was very calm, as if he was facing a long-lost old friend.

Shiril paused, opened the first page of the document, and after a while, he closed it.When he looked up again, his eyes were clearly full of inquiry: "What do you want to do?"

Because of his age, the sound quality is still cold and flat, but the original melodious sound like the clash of strings has already brought some deep magnetism.The charm of some people increases with age. When he was young, he was amazingly beautiful. When he was old, his appearance was even more beautiful with breathtaking power, even awe, which made people dare not look at it any more. glance.

Felix said calmly: "The marriage between Safair and Kane, in addition to fulfilling the marriage contract, there is another reason, to preserve the continuation of the sapphire. With the character of Clauris, Safair cannot be supported, so the future The only heir to her is her child, or her half-brother Marcus. But her mother failed to do so, Clauris left no children, and Marcus was still young, and his background... It is not honorable, and the resistance in the family is equally unimaginable. Safair is facing the most difficult crisis."

He smiled bitterly, with a deep and powerless sigh in his eyes: "I thought I had time, I could wait until my Aurora grew up, and I could wait until Markus grew up enough to be able to shoulder a family, but No one thought that the annual rings I could cross... would be so short. Kane is facing a crisis like Safair, and I can't believe anyone... I can only think of it, only you."

The biggest disaster for a huge family is the severance of inheritance and no successors.

Cyril already understood what he wanted to say.

Cloris... and a younger brother!She even has a younger brother!

Cyril's hands trembled slightly, and immediately clenched into fists again.In the memory of the original version, the death of Felix two years later caused Safair and Kane to almost collapse half of the sky, and after that, they split and were eaten away for a very long time.When the original version came to the Kane family, Aurora was already a complete orphan, and the old sapphire was only an empty shell, which could not be retrieved no matter what he tried.

He doesn't have any memories of Markas... So... that child, will die within two years? !

"You want me to guard them instead of you." Cyril said slowly, with a deep haze in his eyes, "How are you going to convince me?"

Felix smiled, he looked very old, the muscles on his face twitched slightly, it seemed that it was difficult to even smile, but his eyes were still wise and clear.

"I never betrayed my wife...Clauris never betrayed you."

"She married Kane according to her obligations from birth, but the only thing she didn't obey her mother was to commit herself to me and give birth to a sapphire heir with Kane's blood. I think marriage is her She can't choose what she can't refuse, but these are things she can control."

Tears fell from the gully in the corner of his eyes: "I treat her like my daughter. But without you, nothing in this world can save her life. I just watched her wither like that... Over the past few years , the only time she was happy was in the Florence morning paper in the morning. Other than that, there were no smiles, no tears. She had closed her heart."

"You... wrote poems for four years, and I followed her to see your mood for four years. So I trust you, because you are the person she is willing to spend her life on. Many times, I also miss , Why is the story like this, but... I don't know what happened between you, and I don't have any right to intervene."

It seemed that after saying these words, he had exhausted all his energy, and then he bent down with difficulty: "I know, maybe... maybe it's too naive, maybe, it's a bit ridiculous, I still want... I want you to... Help."

Clauris... That beautiful and intelligent girl, perhaps, just realized the irresistible bond between her and him, so she didn't say anything, didn't do anything, just stood there blankly.Just like that year when I cried alone and almost suffocated, but still in silence, waiting for him may never turn around and find myself.

That silly girl, she used such a silly way to repay his love... So silly, she let herself reach the end.

How come... so stupid.

When Felix looked up, he saw a tear run across the face of the lord.

He turned his head and looked through the glass window to the distant sky.What a terrible loneliness that swept over his body, like an abyss that wanted to swallow everything, it was suffering at a glance.

After an unknown amount of time, the terminally ill elder spoke his last words slowly.

"Clauris's last words before...going, do you...want to hear it?"

In response to this question, he paused slightly, then turned and left without turning his head.

No one saw his face again.

But presumably, everyone who saw him at this time would clearly feel that something in his body was dying.

※※※※※※※

That day, when Felix's wheelchair turned around the corridor, and when his sight accidentally touched the fragrant locust tree, he stopped.

He raised his head, staring quietly like the young man and his deceased second wife two days ago.After a long time, he took out an extremely thick notebook from the interlayer on the right side of the wheelchair.

It was full of clippings.Be careful to stick it neatly.The corners of the paper are already a little worn, obviously because it has been turned over too many times.

His skinny fingers flipped a page at random, and a poem came into view.

"There is a word that is often profaned

I won't blaspheme again

There is a feeling that is falsely despised by others

You will not come to despise again.

There is a hope too hopeless;

But why beware.

Your mercy is unmatched,

Always warms my heart.

I cannot give you what the world calls love,

but I don't know if you can accept

The yearning of this heart for you,

Even God will not refuse.

Like a moth to a star,

The night pursues the dawn.

this yearning,

He has already jumped out of the plight of the world. 』

The front-page poetry column of the Florence Morning Post has gone two days without new content, sparking a new frenzy of controversy.

In four years, a total of [-] love poems have made too many people ingrain this habit.Suddenly one day it was cut off, as if a very important part of life was missing, it was unacceptable.

More people are afraid, has something happened to the poet, or is it that this legendary emotion can no longer continue?

No matter how much disturbance there was, on the third day, new content appeared in that familiar place in the newspaper.

It was a long lyric poem.

A tear-jerking song that can rival the song "The Farthest Distance in the World" that was widely circulated last year.At the breakfast table that day, how many people burst into tears and choked up sobbing that they couldn't control themselves?How many people are so sad that they can no longer speak any words?

It turns out that there is no fairy tale about love.It turns out that the four-year relationship has to come to an end.

The name of the column has been changed from Good Morning to Good Night, Clauris.

It was early in the morning, but the poet said... Good night.

The first line of the poem is: "You have long passed away." 』

And at the end of the poem, it reads:

"...

your undying spirit

Through majestic and dark eternity

come back to my heart

Your buried love surpasses all

Only the years that love lives'

Felix put down the newspaper slowly.He knew that perhaps, his naive and ridiculous idea was about to come true.

From this day on, the Florence Morning News still exists, but the position on the front page will always stay and be blank forever.Oddly, no one complained about it.Because, in a certain corner of the world, there was a person who overwhelmed the whole world with a hopeless true love that lasted for four years.

It was like a silent memorial service.

※※※※※※※

Cyril had arranged everything he could think of, so he was silent for several days in those places in Florence that had been kept in his memory, standing in the square without doing anything, watching the pigeons fly away, watching the evening glow Disappearing in Tianyu, after a long period of trance, he seemed to be able to see her shadow appearing in front of him, hands behind his back, tilted his head and smiled, saying that I have been waiting for you...

Then he packed himself up and went to Isaac.

This is a small town in the mountains of northern Spain, which has been controlled by the Kane family for generations.The scenery is very charming, the distant mountains are picturesque, the vegetation in the valley is lush, and the lake is as clear as a mirror. The important thing is that the only heir of the Kane family will stay here until he is 16 years old, and then he will learn to take over the family and enter the society. junction.It's just that old Kane didn't live long enough to wait for her daughter to grow into a famous lady before starting to get involved in the family business.

The legendary heroine is still a loli.For Klauris, but also for himself, he must be responsible for raising Lori.

...will be another four years.
