Cross Rose Requiem

Chapter 18: Arnold's Scheme

Why did Ram develop companionship for the Duke?This is nothing more than his desire to conquer.In contact with the upper class nobles, he has seen all kinds of good, dirty and chaotic feelings.For so many years, Victor Montrose's love for Dorothy has always been a good story among the upper class nobles.This also makes the Duke unique.

A nobleman in a complicated environment, that inviolable temperament is so charming.

And it was this kind of temperament that confused the aggressive Ram. After the confusion, it finally turned into some kind of conquest-loving admiration.Therefore, no matter how much Duke Victor reduced him to a "bug", a "stinky rat".He readily accepted.

Because, in the past three years, his hands were not clean.

The aristocrats in the upper circles were pleasantly surprised when the news spread that Montrose Manor would hold a banquet at the end of May.As for the invitations, one by one, they flew out of the manor and into the hands of the nobles.

In Earl Friedrich's castle, the countess who received the invitation opened it.Seeing that the signature on the invitation is Ram, not Victor.

Arnold, who was sitting across from him, threw the invitation card away after reading it: "Rahm is a villain! When the day of the banquet comes, I will definitely reveal his identity."

The Countess asked suspiciously: "Is Ram really a London thief?" This is really too appalling.

Arnold said fiercely: "Sir Salter's words are absolutely not wrong. Moreover, I hired someone to investigate and found evidence that he was a thief and a bedbug in the slums!" At that time, he must discredit him.Then, stomp him under your feet.

The countess sighed: "I never thought that Ram would have such an identity."

Arnold said proudly: "Don't worry, mom. Uncle was just deceived by him. On the day of the banquet, I will definitely untie his dirty face myself."

The bet between him and his uncle was over, and he believed that his uncle would announce the result of the bet soon.Moreover, this made Arnold feel a little flustered.

He had been vaguely uneasy since Ram had become Ram Montrose.How did that dirty rat get the Montrose family name?This cunning thief must have tricked his uncle, and then attempted to seize the huge property of the Montrose homestead.

He won't let him get away with it.

He is the heir to Montrose Manor, and he must drive him out!

The countess did not know what to do.

Victor, who left Ram behind, really doesn't know Ram's true identity?

She still remembered that when Victor brought Ram to visit the Earl's Castle for the first time, the boy was polite and educated like a man.There was no trace of a thief on him at all.

At last the countess said: "Arnold, I hope you will not offend your uncle."

Arnold smiled back and said, "Don't worry, Mom, I won't make uncle unhappy." Uncle who knows the truth will definitely regret taking Ram.

Sir Salter also received the invitation. After seeing the signature on the invitation, he tore up the invitation.

The boy who was once disregarded by him has now grown into a poisonous snake.This poisonous snake coiled around Victor, and whenever he tried to get close, he opened his mouth and bit him.

This was how Sir Salter felt about Ram for three years.

Ram knows his feelings for Duke Victor and stops him.The only thing he did wrong was not stopping him in the first place.If, at that time, he had found a way to drive him out of Montrose Manor, in this way, he would not have grown into a huge monster.

But it was still too late.

What he didn't pay attention to back then has now become someone who hinders him.

why?Why did Victor choose Ram instead of Maia you?Maia is the one who looks the most like Dorothy, isn't she?

Sir Salter could not understand this.Ram is nothing more than a pair of green eyes.Once a teenager's body grows, it will change.If we say that the outline of Ram's face three years ago looks a bit like Dorothy's.However, now that he is fully grown, he looks less and less like Dorothy.

Therefore, he couldn't figure it out.

In this way, there is only one way to destroy Ram, drop him from heaven to hell, let him go back to the slums, and continue to be his Mr. Thief.In this way, without this obstacle, he can continue to get close to Victor.

I hope that on the day of the banquet, Master Arnold will not disappoint him.

When the thoughtful businessman regained his senses, he left the company to find Mr. Ethan, the best biological specimen maker.

There are still about ten days until the banquet.In the past two days, Butler Anderson and Ram mentioned something.

"Master Ram, you need an oil painting portrait."

Hearing Butler Anderson's words, Ram couldn't help but look at the portrait of the Duke hanging in the middle of the stairs in the shape of an inverted Chinese character "Human".In the portrait, it is the portrait of Duke Victor when he was 20 years old.That magnificent noble young man is really charming.

In the oil painting storage room upstairs, there are portraits of the owners of the Montrose Manor through the ages.The key to this storage room is with the Duke and Butler Anderson.Ram only went in once this January.On each portrait, he still remembered that on each oil portrait, there was the signature of the owner of the portrait.He was still on it, seeing a portrait of Duke Victor at the age of 30.

"Thank you, Butler Anderson, and please draw a portrait of Miss Maia and the Duke."

"Okay, Master Ram."

So Butler Anderson arranged for an oil painter to paint in the manor.

Regarding this matter, when Ram went to the library, he picked a rose flower in the garden.He entered the library and told Duke Victor about the portrait painting, and the other party only nodded slightly after hearing this.

Afterwards, Ram took out the rose on his back and handed it to the Duke: "My lord, you are as beautiful as a noble rose."

Duke Victor looked at the bare rose stem in front of him coldly.

"Hahahahaha..." The demon who plucked all the rose petals laughed wantonly behind Ram.With the same smile on Ram's face, he leaned over and kissed the Duke's hair intimately.Say, "I'm so sorry, there are always demons at work."

From kissing the back of the hand, to forehead and hair.

The terrible habit made Duke Victor unprepared for this kind of almost lover's kiss.Mainly, every time Sir Salter said goodbye to him, he would kiss the back of his hand.

Therefore, this kind of intimacy is the same for the Duke.

And Ram, with the first time, there will be a second time...

What's even scarier is that Ram doesn't do it very often.Instead, let the other party get used to it slowly and slowly.Even when the Duke realized it, he was used to it and didn't care.

This aggression is slow and deadly.

The Duke said indifferently: "Ram, you are like a courtship dog, but you are looking for the wrong one."

Ram smiled: "I'm just the Duke's dog, I'm willing to be trampled by you, and I won't become someone else's dog."

The devil who had had enough of laughing, it flapped its wings and landed on the bookcase.

The Duke put down his book, looked at the tall and handsome young man in front of him, and said, "There is no shame. Ram, if you bring shame to Montrose Manor, I will send you back to the slums."

Ram replied respectfully: "I swear to God, I will never disgrace the Montrose family."

The duke went on grimly: "Your oath is worthless."

This is the great nobleman he respects and loves, and he never loves him or praises him in any way.But it is such a person that makes people want to conquer and love.

The oil painter came to the manor the next day. In the morning, the Duke put on grand clothes, sat in the painter with a cane and waited for the oil painter to finish painting the portrait.

In two days, the portrait of the Duke was finished.Then came Ram and Maia.

Maia put on a holy white dress and leaned on the sofa. The oil painter was taken aback for a moment, and then began to paint.He still remembers that 20 years ago, he painted oil paintings for Miss Dorothy.This lady really looks a lot like Miss Dorothy.However, if you pay attention, the details are actually very different.

An artist who was good at distinguishing faces immediately recognized the difference between Maia and Dorothy.But this lady is as gentle as Miss Dorothy.What a beautiful angel.

Before the banquet at the end of May, the oil portraits of the three were completed.After the portrait was framed, Butler Anderson hung the portraits of Maiya and Ram in their room.The Duke's portrait was received by him in the oil painting storage room.

Butler Anderson told Ram that after the banquet, the oil painter would come again to draw a group photo of the three of Master Ram, Miss Maia and the Duke.

Ram nodded.

The day before the banquet, Ram visited the earl's castle in person, but fortunately, Arnold was not there.He meets the countess and tells her about the borrowing of the castle servants and cook.The countess agreed and invited Ram to have afternoon tea together.

In the garden, the countess said directly to Ram: "Ram, I want you to leave Montrose Manor."

Ram smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Countess. I will not leave the manor, nor will I leave the Duke's side."

The countess frowned and said, "You are not from the Montrose family."

"Of course, I am a loyal servant of the Duke."

"In this case, for this banquet, you should find a good wife for Victor. Let him have an heir and give birth to the heir of Montrose Manor."

"Rahm will take the countess' words to the duke."

An unpleasant conversation ended, and Ram left the Earl's Castle with a smile.

After returning to the manor, Ram took the countess' words to the Duke who was shooting at the manor.

"Bang bang bang!" The bullet fired by the Duke hit the apple that was tied by a rope and hung under the tree.He was unmoved by what Ram brought back.

Dorothy's case is over, and the countess thinks he should find a good lady.
