[Famous Books] Desire for control and arrogance

Alice knew that he would pay attention to it. He was too concerned about face. As long as face was involved, she was not afraid that he would not work hard.

After waving goodbye to Bill, Alice went to lock the door again, and finally climbed into bed and fell asleep again.

She was so tired that she slept until midnight before waking up thinking that she hadn't taken a bath, but unfortunately no one was heating her hot water at this time.

Alas, I should have told Bill to finish heating the hot water before leaving.

Alice was really too lazy to heat hot water, so she was very reluctant to take a bath, but she had to take a bath, so she hugged the pillow and was very tangled.

She suddenly thought of reading a book in the past, which said that taking cold water in winter would be good for the skin.Because there was a reason for not hot water, her eyes lit up, she got out of bed cruelly and took cold water, shivering and quickly took a shower.

During the period, she wanted to give up several times, but she desperately hypnotized herself that cold water is really good for the skin, and then she carried it over.

When she returned to the bed and finally warmed up, she thought beautifully, and felt that it was so good to be able to beautify herself without having to work, but she slept until morning, and when she heard Bill knocking loudly on the door outside, she regained consciousness Only then did I realize that I really had a cold.

Headache, dizziness, uncomfortable nose, heavy body, don't want to get up and open the door...

Alice was immersed in the discomfort of her body, and she had no time to regret at all, and of course she was not a person who regretted casually.

Bill didn't know what was going on inside at all, and the knocking on the door became more and more urgent and harder.

He worked passionately for half the night, and only got up after lying down for three hours.

When I woke up, I thought I had extra time to make Alice look good, and I was waiting to hear Alice praise him, so I came here with full of anticipation, but when I came, I found that the door was locked, and I couldn’t open it for a long time .

He wasn't worried at all about Alice's problems because of Allen, and there were guards guarding the place at a distance at night, so the biggest possibility that the door didn't open was that Alice was too fast asleep.

The sun was fierce and strong this morning, and he knocked on the door alone in the hot air for a long time, and no one answered him. He was anxious and uncomfortable, and his back was sweating.

While hesitating whether to break the door, Alice finally opened it.

Just seeing the top of Alice's drooping head, the anger accumulated in Bill's chest was instantly vented, and he pointed hard at the big clock tower in the distance: "Do you know what time it is?! It's already 07:30 , you are already late!"

Alice didn't care what he said at all, she looked up blankly, frowning and looking at Bill.

In her illness, she especially wanted to act coquettishly and willfully order others like before. Although this person in front of her is not very good, but after all, she is the only person she can order with confidence in this foreign country. I can call him.

After making a decision, she turned up with grievances, her eyes were red, and her voice was absolutely hoarse without pretending: "I have a cold, a bad cold, can I ask for leave instead of going to the palace? I am so sick that I am dying." Before Bill could speak, she thought that her finger was bleeding before as if Bill had ignored it, and she gritted her teeth sharply and threatened, "Don't say that the poor people just bear with it, my body is very weak, if you don't help me squeeze me Go to high-intensity work, and I will die or be disabled, and you will not feel better."

When Bill first saw Alice's red-eyed and wronged look, he was rightly nervous, but when he heard about Alice's condition, especially when he saw that Alice still had the strength to threaten him, he relaxed.

It's just a cold, and it will be fine if you take a good rest. He also has a lot of medicine, and he doesn't think there will be any problems.

But thinking of how long he would have to recuperate from the cold, which completely disrupted his plan, Bill was in a bad mood: "You beg me for help, can you be gentle?"

"Isn't that because I'm afraid you won't realize the seriousness?" Alice squinted her eyes and said in a low voice. "I'm here and you are the only one I can rely on. You have to take care of me."

After all, she was asking for help. After letting go of the harsh words, she needed to be softer in her next words. After Bill protested, she took advantage of the situation and became softer.

It's true that Bill likes her soft look now, but what's more exciting is the words "Only you can rely on" in her mouth.

Just hearing it from her mouth made me feel at ease, no amount of anxiety dissipated, and I just felt that everything was worth it.

He stared at Alice absent-mindedly for a few seconds, his heart beating violently uncontrollably during those few seconds.

"Okay, let's go into the room first, and I'll take care of it." He suppressed the corners of his mouth that were about to turn up, and pulled Alice into the door.

After helping Alice to lie down, he was thirsty outside and wanted to drink water, but now he completely forgot about it. He just locked the door and left while saying that he was going out to find a doctor and ask her for leave. The doctor and the good news of the holiday came, as well as delicious and delicious food.

Alice originally thought that she would be sick for a long time as before, but she had a delicious meal to satisfy her hunger, and after Bill reminded her to take her medicine on time, and slept peacefully all night, she unexpectedly Other than a little stuffy nose, everything else is fine.

How can it be?The care she received in the palace before was a thousand times better than now, but her condition could not be cured so quickly.

Hearing her muttering, Bill reminded with satisfaction: "It should be that you need to work now. You have exercised more than before, and your body's endurance is much better, so your physique has also improved a lot."

The implication is to guide Alice to be more diligent and make her love work and labor.

Alice pretended not to hear, and asked Bill to pour her another glass of water, and she was going to drink it before going back to sleep.

"Didn't you just say you were full of sleep?" Bill's eyelids twitched.

"There's nothing else to do, so of course I'll continue to sleep." Alice believed that as long as she was bored enough, she could continue to sleep.

"It's not that there is nothing to do," Bill said immediately with a heartbeat, "You are almost better now, and it's time to go to work."

He was looking forward to Alice's entry into the palace so much, even if he only waited for a day, the wait was very painful.

Alice glared at him: "Hey, it's already nine o'clock in the morning. I only enjoyed yesterday's sick leave. Are you human? Can't you let me finish this day?"

Bill was expecting to use all means to persuade him: "But you have to deduct money when you are sick, and you said you were very sick. I heard you really hired a good doctor. It cost a lot of money. I have completely recovered. I've run out of money, and I'm waiting for you to use the money from selling pots to pay for your family."

Alice didn't have much money left at all, and it would kill her to ask for her money.

She couldn't help thinking: Forget it, anyway, you can go paddling in the palace, the big deal is that when you really want to sleep, you will tell Aldridge that the work is too intense, and you need a room to sleep directly.

"Then I'll go to work." She agreed.

Bill was so happy that he immediately found clothes for her to freshen up, and then urged her to also drive her into the palace.

As soon as she entered the palace, she met the steward who assigned her work, the steward was very polite and caring to her, and said: "Since you have just recovered, you should do some light-hearted activities today that don't touch water and move less. Come on..."

Alice was happy to be lazy, and when she arrived in the kitchen, she dragged a stool and sat and worked.

Today, the Mary she is more familiar with is not there, and Alice is not close to anyone, working alone.

Doing casually alone means being lazy at will, and she is quite comfortable. Who knew that a maid secretly moved a stool close to her.

Alice glanced at the maid without a trace of distaste, and saw that the maid had red lips and white teeth, which was pleasing to the eye, so she endured her existence.

The maid was obviously here to please Alice, she whispered secretly: "Hi Alice, my name is Jenny, I have wanted to know you for a long time, you are so pretty."

Alice was quite pleased with what she heard, and paid her a little attention: "Well, just say what you want to say, without beating around the bush."

Jenny froze for a moment, showing longing emotions, and said cautiously and obediently: "I really want to know you. I don't know if I'm bothering you. I heard that you are sick and your complexion is a little pale now, so I'm bothering you. I want to Here's something for you." She took out a lipstick she had hidden in the inner pocket of her clothes cherishingly, opened it and showed Alice the color, and looked at Alice expectantly, "It will make your face look better after you put this on."

Alice saw that the lipstick was obviously used and she didn't want to use it anymore. She didn't know if the maid in front of her was really treating her well. If she put something in the lipstick, she would be miserable after using it. up.

"Thank you," said Alice gently, "but it's all right, I'll be fine like this."

Jenny pursed her lips, and closed the lid of her lipstick sadly and disappointedly. She was supposed to say goodbye after covering it, but Jenny was reluctant, and subconsciously stayed there for a long time, looking at Alice from the corner of her eye.After being in a daze for a long time, she belatedly realized that Alice may have disliked the lipstick she had used, and said to Alice secretly: "I have a brand new, unused lipstick and put it in the bedroom. How about I I'll give you that secretly."

She kept staring at Alice worriedly, and Alice was also a little upset, so she nodded and let her take it.

Jenny was very fast, and Alice got the lipstick very quickly. Before she could thank her, the steward came to Alice again, saying that the king had summoned her again.

Alice stuffed her lipstick into the only shallow pocket on her body and went to see the king.

This meeting actually required the use of a carriage. The carriage drove her for more than ten minutes, took her through the magnificent buildings, and finally arrived in front of the large forest behind the palace.

As soon as she got out of the carriage, a man approached on a black horse, and when she looked up, it was the king.

The king's attire today is relatively simple, and his spirit is refreshing.

He was riding on a tall horse, and his already tall figure looked even more stalwart now.Although the expression is still the same gentle, but because he is looking down at people, there is a daunting aura.

Alice grabbed the skirt and bowed her knees to salute. As she moved, the lipstick fell out and fell on the lawn.

There was no sound when the lipstick fell, and Alice didn't care about it when she noticed it, but the king, who had been staring at Alice, felt that the lipstick was very glaring.

He has always been very clear about what items are on Alice. Yesterday, Alice was uncomfortable and couldn't do the work. Because he had to do housework, he went through the extra things in the house and confirmed that there was no such lipstick.

He has been with Alice for the past two days, and Alice doesn't have much money, and she doesn't have money or time to buy lipstick, unless the lipstick is given to her by a servant in the palace...

Who?He actually gave Alice something at the place where he lived.

The king's complexion instantly turned bad.
