[Famous Books] Desire for control and arrogance

"He should give up soon." Mech blinked and suddenly said flatly.

Alice's expression froze for a moment.

"Give up? Why? How did you know?" Her expression remained dignified and elegant, as if the ugly face just now was just an illusion.

"So many questions, you care about this? You don't care about him, do you?" Although Mech couldn't see her heart, he was very sensitive, and he could guess Alice's mood right away.

"...One thing," Alice finally admitted, otherwise she might not be able to get exact information about Aldrich, but in order to draw a line with Aldrich, she argued, "But it has nothing to do with liking him. People can let you release all kinds of disgusting emotions without any scruples, and can insist on giving you gifts. This feeling of reassuring to hate people is very good, and I am indeed a little obsessed."

Time will eventually dilute a lot of emotions. Alice has obtained a lot of things from Aldrich, and now her life is getting better and better. She will gradually not have many negative emotions because of Aldrich. Aldrich developed a strange possessive desire.

Mech was silent for a long time, and said dryly: "He is so pitiful, you are even weirder than him."

"Stop talking about him, tell me quickly, what's going on?" Alice urged, not wanting to talk nonsense.

"In recent years, he has not been in good health and has not taken care of things. His mother who went to the monastery took advantage of his lack of energy and launched a coup..."

"He lost?" Alice asked in disbelief.

The gift in hand was just delivered today, and the two countries are not far away, so he was overthrown a few days after giving her the gift? ? ?

"That's not true, but in order to distract his guards, his mother launched a coup and set fire to the capital of Campbell. The coup could be quelled, but the fire was too fierce. It is said that not only the palace was burned, but also the houses near the palace were burned. Many, almost half of the kings are gone." Mech said calmly.

"Is he okay?" Although Alice didn't think much, her voice became a little dry uncontrollably.

"I don't know, but I seem to be injured, and I haven't been out of the palace much." Mech briefly described the situation, squinted his eyes, and asked, "Do you want to help him? He didn't ask for help. Father, because of your affairs, , I don’t really want to associate with him, lest you think about it, so I have decided not to ask.”

"I don't think about it." Alice subconsciously retorted, and after a pause, she regained her senses and calmly explained, "I don't believe what you said, but just ask, if Aldrich is really seriously ill, he will not be sick until now." Without children, the situation in Campbell will definitely change, and the father will not be indifferent no matter what."

"You're smart." Mech dropped this sentence, turned around and planned to leave, and said as he walked, "Thank you for your generosity for opening the warehouse and showing me your collection. I have something else to do, so I'm leaving first."

"Wait." Alice stopped him, "Tell me what's going on first."

Her expression became unhappy because she didn't like being tantalized.

"I don't know, and I don't want to ask your father for you." Mech smiled indifferently. His gloomy features are very suitable for this kind of smile, and his smile is very beautiful. "If you want to know, you can ask yourself. It's good enough to tell you what I know."

Seeing him getting bigger and more temperamental, Alice reluctantly didn't pursue too much.

She watched Mech leave, and at first she didn't intend to find her father, but after a day and a night, she became more and more curious about what happened to Aldrich.

I was thinking about it when I was eating, and I dreamed that I was thinking about it when I was taking a nap.

At first, she resisted thinking about this, but after thinking about it too much, she tried to think about why she became like this, and she was relieved.

That's right, after all, Aldrich was the man who left the deepest impression on her besides his family.

Although I don't want him to have a good life, I don't want him to have an accident.

She didn't resist her inner thoughts any more, and she didn't hide it any more. When she figured it out, she immediately went to find her father, but the old king's knowledge was really limited, and Aldridge didn't reveal anything to the old king.

After hesitating for a moment, she directly wrote a letter and sent it to Aldrich without telling the old king.

It took only a few days to wait for the letter, but for Alice who wanted to know the result, the time became extremely long. Fortunately, the day when the letter came back, with the letter came back, there were still some accessories, but it was no longer there. What is jewelry, it has become a more expensive cloth.

Alice was a little stunned when she opened the envelope and saw it. When she opened the envelope, she was even more stunned. Inside, Aldridge confessed that he was not in good health, and that there were accidents in his middle school, and a lot of property was burned, so he probably didn't There is no good present for Alice.

He didn't just briefly introduce his bad situation, and didn't go into detail about his injury. Other than that, he just wished Alice dryly, hoping that her life would be safe and smooth.

Alice read the letter twice and confirmed that he is really not doing well now.

A little... I want to go to him to see clearly and ask him clearly.

This idea began to arise in her heart.

She obviously doesn't necessarily love him, but she is really uncomfortable when she thinks that he will be so downcast that he might disappear indirectly from her observation.

With the idea of ​​paying attention to him, Alice will inevitably think of more and more of his advantages.

For example, he has persisted in silently giving for five years, for example, he... looks pretty good.

Alas, the more I think about it, the more I want to see him in person.

Alice hesitated for a few more days, finally packed her luggage, and after saying goodbye to her family, she really went to find Aldrich.

She went very at ease, not afraid that Aldrich would stalk her again.

Now that she planned to see Aldrich, Alice didn't hide anything. When she arrived in Campbell, she didn't feel wronged at all. While asking for help to inform Aldrich, Alice boarded the gorgeous carriage she asked her servant to find.

The area of ​​the capital of this country is not small. Alice opened a corner of the curtain, preparing to silently look at the city where she had lived for a long time.

But it didn't last long before she arrived at the place where Aldrich lived.

It was a temporary place that was requisitioned for Aldrich to live in. It originally belonged to a small nobleman, and the furnishings inside were relatively simple and elegant.

Aldrich didn't go out to meet Alice, he was lying on a bed in the house, really seriously ill.

His eyes were full of disbelief and satisfaction at Alice's arrival, and he wanted to stand next to Alice every minute, but he couldn't.
