Vera's eyes were even more puzzled.

She always felt that Bruce Wayne's flirtatious appearance was against the law, but in fact, she had heard of this man's reputation as a playboy.

And Vera was very sure that she had never met Bruce Wayne on any occasion or place before today, but the more she looked at him, the more familiar he became, and even the voice was very familiar.

Vera frowned slightly, looked at Bruce Wayne's face carefully, and asked again: "Have we met?"

"Although I really want to answer yes, it's a pity." Bruce Wayne sighed regretfully, "I'm afraid we haven't met before."

Even though he said that, Bruce Wayne also had some doubts in his heart.

He thinks he still has some ability to know people. When Vera Clare stared at him, the doubts in his eyes were so strong that he couldn't fail to see it. Miss Claire met, but after searching all over his memory, he didn't remember seeing the other party at all, at most he heard about it from others.

"Impossible." Vera said firmly, "I have definitely seen you."

Bruce Wayne restrained the teasing expression on his face, and frowned slightly, "Have you been to Gotham?"

As the guardian of Gotham, Bruce Wayne stays in Gotham almost all year round, unless there is something that cannot be avoided, he will come out for a short time.

Just like today, today's charity gala is very grand, gathering most of the rich people in every city in the United States. He didn't want to come, but he just captured the clown into Arkham a few days ago, and Gotham will have a good time A short period of more stability (compared to the old Gotham), that's why he's here.

And since Vera Claire was sure that she had seen him, it could only have been when she had been to Gotham.

But surprisingly, Vera has never been to Gotham.

"...I haven't been to Gotham." Vera was taken aback as she said that. Speaking of Gotham, not only had she never been to it, but it seemed that no one in the family had been there, even if the company had something related to Gotham. For business, Noah just told his subordinates to handle it, and he has never been there, and the reason seems to be... Godfather Brian forbade them to go to Gotham?

Vera frowned.

Why doesn't Godfather Brian want them to go to Gotham?

In fact, Vera has never had any interest in Gotham, so it is impossible to take the initiative to mention going to Gotham, and there is nothing that must be done. She is not free, so before that, she never noticed this. one question.

But Noah is different from her. She doesn't need to manage the company, and she doesn't have business with Gotham, but Noah has taken over the company for so many years, and it's impossible not to have a chance to go to Gotham once.

But Vera was sure he hadn't been there.

Then he must have been stopped by Brian's godfather. Since this is the case, has Noah noticed this problem?

Vera suddenly finds that Gotham is not easy.

Miss Claire was very interested in this discovery, and spent the entire charity party chatting with Bruce Wayne, asking him what kind of city Gotham was.

"I heard that Gotham is a city with simple folk customs." Vera is still very understanding of the world, no matter what, it's always good to boast first, although she doesn't understand that the legendary "plain folk customs" of Gotham City is very important to Bruce. For Godfather Ryan, there is indeed an existence that he is afraid to avoid.

"...Thank you for the compliment." The corners of Bruce Wayne's mouth froze for a moment. He felt that this sentence was full of irony, so he had to avoid the seriousness and said lightly: "Cough, Gotham's economy has been very good in recent years."

"..." Vera: Ghosts care about Gotham's economy.

But fortunately, both of them are people who can communicate. After the whole party, the two still had a good chat.

Until the end of the party, the two still had some unfinished business, and even exchanged contact information, and made an appointment to continue chatting next time... But these are of course polite words!

Vera just wants to know what kind of city Gotham is, how did Bruce Wayne tell her?

Said that Gotham is famous for being the number one crime rate in the world?Or is it that they are full of perverts?Or maybe their most famous attraction is called Arkham?

Are you ashamed of saying these words? !Do you fall or not? !Rao Zhengzhiru has never disliked Gotham, and he has no face to say these words.

But apart from these Gothams, there's really nothing special about it...

So although Bruce Wayne seemed to have a happy chat with Vera, he was still very anxious inside.

More anxious than him is Hank.

After the charity gala, he pushed Charles out, and Vera next to her kept pressing her phone, not knowing who she was sending messages to, and Charles had kept the same expression for nearly an hour.

Isn't his face sore?

It shouldn't be sour, otherwise he wouldn't be smiling for an hour without changing his expression... right?

And Vera continued to look at her mobile phone without raising her head until she got in the car for the return journey. She had no intention of chatting with Charles at all, and she didn't remember that she, as Charles' female companion, had not fulfilled her obligations as a female companion at all.

"Cough." In the end, it was Hank who couldn't bear the tense atmosphere in the car and spoke first, "...Vera, you seem to be very interested in Gotham?"

Vera sighed.

"Why?" Hank continued.

"Because I haven't been there?" Vera said, and then frowned slightly, "I just became interested suddenly. There are so many reasons. Is there a reason why I promised Charles to be his female companion?"

Hank was taken aback for a moment, and asked stupidly, "Then why did you agree to him?"

Vera raised her head and smiled, "Because he is Charles~"

The tense atmosphere in the car seemed to ease suddenly. After a while, Charles showed a helpless expression, let go of his clenched fist on his knee, and whispered softly: "I can't seem to be angry with you... "

……

The relationship between Vera and Charles is getting more and more delicate. Even though the sour smell of love can overflow the screen when the two stand together, they still haven't pierced the window paper.Vera vaguely understood why, but she wasn't sure, because in her perception, Charles had always been the strongest person.

"I'll be leaving soon." Vera sat on the sofa and said to Charles, who was grading homework.

Charles paused and raised his head, "How long will it be?"

"Maybe..." Vera pouted, "At least three days."

One day was delayed when I went, and one day was delayed when I came back, but Vera was not sure how many days she would stay in the UK. After all, the previous few times when I went to celebrate my aunt’s birthday went well, and I got along very well, so I couldn’t go anyway. Will you come back the same day?

Charles was stunned for a moment, he put down the pen in his hand, and said 'hmm'.

There was an 'hmm'.

Vera raised her head, looked at him dissatisfied, and raised her eyebrows, "It may also take a week."

Charles smiled, "Remember to send me a message when you arrive."

Vera frowned, awkwardly, and snorted, "Then what... you, do you have any gifts you want, I'll bring them back for you."

Charles shook his head, "It's the best gift for you to bring yourself back."

Vera was finally satisfied.

……

I got on the plane at night, took a nap, and arrived in the UK the next morning. Because I didn’t plan to stay here for a long time, the luggage of the three of them was not too much. Each of them had a suitcase, and Noah pushed them all. with.

"You are finally here."

The three of them didn't choose a private jet when they came out this time. Instead, they took a passenger plane. After getting off the plane, a few people in the waiting room saw Ted waiting for them at the exit.

"Ted." Mother Jenny walked in the front, and after gently hugging her cousin whom she only saw once a year, she smiled and said, "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Ted shook his head, with a smile on his gentle face, "I came here on time, the plane was on time."

Ted is the only son of Aunt Angelie. He is a tall, handsome and gentle man. He looks young, but in fact he has been married for several years, and even the children are several years old. cute little girl.

Aunt Angelie lives in a house in central London, but Ted and his wife and daughter don't live with her. I heard that they live in... the suburbs for work reasons?

When the three Claires arrived, the home was already filled with the aroma of food and the sweet smell of cake. Before they entered, Vera heard a burst of children's laughter like silver bells.

very warm.

"Mom, Cousin Jenny and the others are here." Ted shouted into the room while carrying luggage into the room with Noah.

"Dad~" A little girl with violet hair ran out of the kitchen and ran directly into Ted's arms, her big eyes couldn't hide her curiosity and looked at Vera and the others.

Vera: Dyeing your hair at such a young age?

Seeming to see Vera's doubts, Ted explained: "Dora's hair color is natural."

When Vera came here a few times ago, she didn't know the reason. This little cousin had never appeared before, so she didn't know about it. Hearing what he said, she couldn't hide her surprise.

"Very beautiful, so special." Vera asked with a smile, "Is her name Dora?"

Ted stood up holding his six-year-old baby girl in his arms, and replied, "Her name is Nymphadora Tonks."

Ted had a helpless and doting expression on his face, "But she doesn't like this name, you can call her Dora."
