Hades

country cottage.Bella hadn't been back for a long time, and she didn't even remember.She didn't choose to apparate, she just stayed at the edge of the field, and then slowly walked towards the house that looked familiar but was a little strange.Here are her best memories and her most painful memories.She was happy in those days with Pluto, but when the truth was laid bare in front of her, Bella felt that the world was so fucking ridiculous.Not much has changed, even the big rattan chair in front of the courtyard is still there, and the grave where Rui Na is buried in the flower garden is also there.The sunflowers are still in full bloom, and the wheat in the fields is still so fragrant.

Bella approached, but she was a little afraid to step into the sitting house.That's how the black shadow suddenly appeared, kneeling beside Bella.

"Welcome back, Your Royal Highness the Princess."

The subordinate who always followed Pluto, Bella only knew him as Edward, and his mask had never been taken off.

"Don't call me that, I have nothing to do with Pluto."

"His Royal Highness...Your Majesty speaks too much, Your Highness cares about you very much."

"You Pluto is too scheming and means too high, I really can't stand it."

What Bella said was the truth, after trusting with all her heart, what she got was a betrayal that could be overthrown.Bella didn't even have the strength to hate, but Edward was still talking.

"...His Royal Highness, please forgive me for your rudeness. His Highness has been protecting you all these years since you left. His Excellency Malfoy only knew one thing about what happened a year ago. His Highness offended many people in order to protect you. , if His Highness is safe, it is not considered dangerous, but now, His Highness has not yet recovered, many people are eyeing His Highness, and the eight thirteen states are ready to move. When Lord Gadrin entrusted the token to His Highness, many clowns refused , Now that the news of His Highness's accident has spread, Your Highness Wangfei, this subordinate dares to ask Her Highness Wangfei to protect His Highness for a period of time."

"The Malfoy family will spare no effort to protect your highness—"

"Your Excellency Malfoy has no role in the eight thirteen states. I know that if His Highness recovers and finds out that you are also involved, he will be furious. It's just that the current situation does not allow this subordinate to think too much. .His Highness has not recovered for more than a year, and the danger is increasing day by day. If it is not forced, this subordinate will never make such a bad plan."

"Edward, there are many people who are better than me, even Albus is better than me—"

"This subordinate understands that your name is known to everyone in the eight thirteen states. This subordinate dares to ask you not to leave for the time being."

"What Pluto has done to me, no one knows better than you, Edward, why should I protect her?"

"I'm sorry, Your Highness. If you can, please give Your Highness a chance."

"Hehe, chance, each of you said to give her a chance, but who will give me a chance?" Bella said so, but after she finished speaking, she knew that she shouldn't say such a thing.

"His Royal Highness..."

"Don't say such things again, I promise you will protect her during this time, please don't say such things in the future, and don't call me Your Royal Highness, Your Highness, I can't stand it."

"Yes... my lord..."

Spotless room.It was exactly the same as when he left, even the pages of the book spread out on the desk were the same.Nothing has changed.

Her cottage, if those deceptions aside, the best days of life.

"You're back..." This is an exclamation from someone Bella once hated.

Chris Lestrange.

Maybe not even Chris Lestrange.Bella never knew his name, it was a scam from the very beginning, just taking advantage from the very beginning.

The red robe, the long red hair, and the soft drape almost blended with the robe.Tall and straight, with a strong body, perhaps this is the real face of Chris.

"Yeah, should I call you Chris, or should I call you something?"

"I thought you would never say a word to me again in your life."

Chris squeezed out a wry smile, with helplessness.Bella also smiled, shaking her head slightly, "I used to think so too." Bella said, then paused, and smiled, "Are you still unwilling to see people with your true face? This face, you want to use it when?"

Chris was in a daze, he stretched out his hand to touch his face, and turned bitter, "Bella, it's a very happy thing to be able to remember, I can't remember what I used to be like, what I used to be name."

"Yes, but for me, forgetting is the best."

Chris looked at her silently, at her calmness, at her calmness.This woman, it was rumored that she had changed, Chris didn't believe it, but when he actually saw the woman he regarded as his sister speaking such calm words face to face, Chris found that even if he didn't admit it, Bella had changed.

"Your Highness, she..."

"It's good that she can forget, she's been the lucky one all along..." There was a bit of jealousy in these words.Chris looked at her, without anger, without emotional ups and downs, asking things that shouldn't be asked, touching things that shouldn't be touched.Even if he knew he shouldn't, he didn't have the right to ask.

"Do you still love Your Highness?"

"...Oh, Chris, seven years... Do you know how long it takes seven years to forget..."

Bella didn't seem to ask Chris, and Chris didn't know how long it would take seven years for him to forget, and then he heard Bella's voice.

"...at least I don't know..."

Do you still love?
