The meal Mrs. Philip was referring to was supper, and Circe had to hurry through it.Fortunately, such a meal never ends early, and Circe hurried along the way before they even left the table.

Mr. Collins was still displaying his capacity for bombast, and Circe marveled that his mouth could also be used for eating.

After hesitating for a while, Circe didn't go in through the wall in the end. With so many people, it was hard to guarantee that something would go wrong.She found a window sill and sat down, from which she could clearly see the activities of the people in the house.

This look made her very angry, that Wickham was actually sitting next to Elizabeth, still wearing his disgusting smile, it seemed that he had malicious intentions!Circe looked at Elizabeth worriedly, and all kinds of curses were spinning in his mind.

A little magic was used to zoom in on the conversation and the picture of the two people. Even though they were just talking about ordinary topics such as the weather, Circe noticed Elizabeth's softer face.At this time, she was not as sensitive as usual, and she refused to let go of even the slightest change in expression.

Gritting her teeth and watching this for a while, Circe couldn't take it anymore, and she would suffocate to death if she didn't do anything.She can't make big noises, and it's okay to make something happen. After all, she can't let this scum fool Elizabeth!Circe grinds his molars.

The stage at the table was drawing to a close when Circe arrived, and dessert was being enjoyed.Mrs. Philips had muffins and coffee, and Circe was very pleased with the combination.

Seeing Wickham pick up the cup, Circe threw a paralyzing spell and hit his wrist with precision.Wickhamton felt his right hand lose strength, the cup tilted uncontrollably, and the scalding coffee poured over his leg.He almost jumped up, but in the end he held back and forced an apologetic smile.The movement of his hands was not slow, he pulled out the napkin and covered it on his lap.

The sudden sense of powerlessness disappeared as quickly as it came.If it weren't for the tingling pain in his leg, he would have almost thought it was all an illusion.He couldn't understand it, but he had no choice but to admit that he was unlucky.But this is just a small beginning.

With this, everyone lost their interest in continuing to eat.It happened that the poker table had been set up, so Li Xi shifted his composure, and greeted Wickham by the way, asking him to come and play a couple of cards to change his mood.

Having his legs burned didn't make Wickham vigilant, and he was led to sit between Elizabeth and Lydia.Circe has always known Lydia's obsession with red uniforms, and she never thought it was a big deal before, but now seeing the girl staring at Wickham with fascination, Circe's disgust for this scum immediately Another level up.

The three of them sat close together, and Lydia's image and voice appeared on the screen.She bullied Wickham into chatting with him, but soon lost interest in the game, shouting and laughing to place bets.

Relieved, Wickham was able to turn his attention back to Elizabeth.After he met the Bennet sisters and the annoying Darcy on the street last time, he kept his eyes open and asked his friends secretly.He had quite a few friends, so he cobbled together and jotted down a few names.

The beautiful lady was very close to the one named Bingley. I heard that she and her second sister Elizabeth, and then the second daughter of the Lucas family lived in Netherfield for a while.He intuitively felt that Darcy had a special thought for one of the two girls, and he would not be able to get in touch with that Lucas for a while, so he should spend some time with Elizabeth first.

Wickham could feel that even though this Elizabeth had a smart face, he was inevitably attracted by his pretended appearance, and his attitude softened step by step.He has always been self-confident and even proud of his ability to deal with women, but seeing another one fell into his hands, he still couldn't help the pride and malice that almost overflowed in his heart.

Although he sneered in his heart, he still had a polite smile on his face. He pretended to mention Darcy casually: "That Mr. Darcy, I mean the one who lives in Netherfield Gardens, where he How long have you been here?"

Elizabeth had been curious about the grievances between the two people early in the morning. When he heard him mention it, her eyes lit up, and she replied, "It's been about a month." She paused, and added, "I heard that he A great rich man in Derbyshire."

She was about to throw Wickham's chair off balance so that he wouldn't bother to provoke Elizabeth when he heard them talking about Darcy, and Circe hesitated and stopped.She would rather listen to what this scumbag has to say.

"Yes, his property is very considerable, with a net income of ten thousand pounds a year. As for this, no one knows for sure, because I have a special relationship with his family since I was a child."

Elizabeth couldn't help showing a surprised expression.Circe had the same look at the window, she was surprised and then understood, it seems that the two people's beams really are not small.

"Miss Bennet, you also saw the cold look we had when we met yesterday. No wonder you were surprised. Are you familiar with Mr. Darcy?"

Although she knew it was a bit inappropriate, the first image that flashed in Elizabeth's mind was the bloody mess of the man in front of her from yesterday, which somewhat distracted her mind and made her dazed slightly.But she quickly pulled back her divergent thoughts and recalled Darcy.Her tone immediately became stiff.

"To tell you the truth, I wish I knew him well enough." Elizabeth was irritated by the recollection of the man's haughty air, and his contempt for Circe, "I spent four days with him. , I think he is really annoying."

A satisfied smile flashed across Wickham's mouth, and the lady's dislike for Darcy was obviously more suitable for him to play.

"Whether he is annoying or likable, I have no right to judge. I have known him for too long, and I have been with him for too long, so it is difficult to be a fair judge." Wickham pretended He sighed, looking objective, but his next sentence completely exposed his purpose.At least to Circe's ears, it couldn't be more obvious.

"To speak with a clear conscience, no matter who you are, you shouldn't be exaggerated by others. But for him, the situation is different. His wealth and power blind others' eyes and ears, and his arrogant and domineering attitude It also frightened others, so that everyone can only look at him according to his mind."

Elizabeth immediately answered, "Although I don't know him very well, I think he has a very bad temper."

Wickham waited for her to stop, then continued: "I don't know if he plans to stay here for a while."

"I don't know that at all, but when I was at Netherfield, I didn't hear that he was going. But I hope that since you like it here, your plans will not be affected by his being around."

"Oh no, I'm not going to let Mr. Darcy go away. If he doesn't want to see me, he's got to go."

These words were extremely harsh, but Circe sneered disdainfully.But she didn't intend to interrupt this man's performance at this time.She had a vague feeling that the main event was coming soon.
