under the field

Scarlett

Only when the train is officially moving, I dare to take a big breath, but this does not mean that my heart has fallen back to its original place, I am just calming down my mentality for the next road.

When I came up, I met a mother and daughter, and I remembered that I didn't have time to say goodbye to Claire.She should be distraught at the moment, but I trust Mia and Brianna to reassure her for me.She should be pissed because she wasn't part of the whole plan.

Only those who are truly ignorant are the safest, Brianna said boldly.She insisted that only a genuine panic from Claire would convince everyone that her youngest daughter had really sneaked away without anyone's help, without anyone's help from the Hastings.

I thought of Claire's convincing expression, her disorientation that would convince Lord Reggie that she was genuinely ignorant and had no part in plotting the escape.

When the inquiring and offending gaze came from the opposite side again, I couldn't help lowering the brim of my hat again.Unexpectedly, the person opposite laughed. As soon as I spoke, I knew that these two people would not be noble and educated people, just because a real gentleman would not stare at a girl like this.They were like the nasty men that Emma, ​​the little maid in charge of grocery shopping in the manor, described, those who prowled the dark streets of Orlando at night and took the opportunity to tease ordinary girls.

At this moment, I look like a girl from an ordinary family in their eyes, so they can speak unscrupulously.They first asked me where I was from, but I said nothing, and they laughed even louder.I hope that another dignified old man can enter this box, so that they may be taught to keep their mouths shut, or they find themselves in the wrong box and leave.

But their unrestrained and foul language made me think of asking the flight attendant or the driver to tell them to leave or restrain themselves.I clearly felt that my thoughts hadn't passed my brain at all, and that a commoner who bought a cheap box ticket didn't have the privilege to switch boxes or send people out of the car.

In fact, they kept talking to me, which made me feel that even if they didn't get a response, they would still be satisfied, because they just like to find a sense of superiority and desire to conquer in weak women.I thought I could tolerate the journey, at least as long as I wasn't sleeping and clutching my luggage—as long as they didn't touch me, I'd pretend they didn't exist.

But it is clear that this tolerance was immediately broken.When one of the men's hands touched my shoulder, I yelled don't touch me, eliciting even more pleasant laughter from them.Is it so presumptuous?Apparently the train was moving, no one came into the box again, and it was impossible for me to stay here with the two of them.

"You look lonely, baby." He doesn't mind my anger, explaining his casual touch.

I used to think that if I was married to Earl Reggie and he hugged me and called me baby in the middle of the night, I thought I'd be disgustingly sick in front of him, which I would be whoever it was, and I'd probably rebel, like This moment.

I pushed away the body pressed by the man in front of me, and another person quickly came up to suppress me. I thought it was absurd, so I could only yell for help.

He still wanted to cover my mouth, I instinctively closed my teeth vigorously, kicked the people in front of me indiscriminately when he let go, picked up the luggage and smashed them open.

This is a birthday present that Mia's husband brought me from the Viking city. It is a hard walnut wooden suitcase. As I escaped this time, its first task was to fill weapons.

I opened the box door and bumped into a passer-by in the corridor. I grabbed that person and said, help me.

"Where are you going?" The man who was chasing after me persisted, dragging me back to the box, I had to use the hand that was carrying the luggage to hold on to the life-saving straw in front of me, "Please, they want to violate me."

I just hope he doesn't push me away, or like the man behind me, when I look into his face, tears are about to flow.

If Brianna was there, she would say that if you want to talk about a good-looking man, nine out of ten he is a bad guy, but I don't think he is a bad guy, because he stretched out his hand and grabbed the wrist of the man behind him, saying: "She is with me."

The man obviously didn't believe it. He heard me asking the man in front of me for help, telling him not to meddle in his own business, and he also expressed that he didn't mind sharing.

"Okay!" I heard him readily agree, I couldn't believe it, I stopped grabbing him and was about to hit him with my luggage.

He snatched my suitcase and punched the man behind him like a fist. The man fell to the ground and cursed loudly, but he didn't want to really attract the flight attendant or others. After being kicked and paralyzed on the ground, I Without looking back at him, she followed the man in front of her and ran down the corridor.

His box is at the other end, a box for one person alone.I stood at the door and dared not go in.

He saw my hesitation and actually smiled. He put the box lightly at my feet and let me leave or stay as I wished.

This is not an ordinary box, even if I go to the flight attendants, they will not let me upgrade, and they will even say to me, sorry miss, you bought an ordinary ticket, so you should stay in an ordinary box, and you can’t do it at will. Move the position to disrupt the order of the train.I don't even have any evidence to testify against those two men. Maybe they will bite back and say that I seduced them first, and let the driver leave an inappropriate girl like me with unknown background, power and power, in the wilderness...

I picked up my luggage, entered the box, closed the door for him, and finally felt a little safe.

"Thank you." I sat on the bench opposite him, next to his feet on the cushion, at this moment he crossed his arms around his chest and closed his eyes.

He didn't respond to me, which made me feel embarrassed, but he saved me and let me in the box to be sheltered, which I am grateful for.

I straightened the beret on my head, and wrapped the windbreaker that had just been pulled askew around my body.No one spoke, and I could only watch the scenery outside the window through his feet and a large seat near the window.

I didn't think about how far away I was from Orlando at this moment, which would make me want to go home, and I just fled for one night.I decided to cast my gaze on the man across the way who closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

His nose bridge is very high, at least the tallest man I have ever seen, even pleasing to the eye. If he appeared at the ball last night, I think Briana would forget that she is married and squeeze away. A crowd of girls surround him and invite him to dance.

I thought of my sisters again, and the inevitable thought of home, and I found it impossible not to miss people in Orlando, and I sighed sadly.

When he opened his eyes, he happened to meet mine. I couldn't help being dazed, and then thanked him again.

"You said it," he said.I nodded and thought I should introduce myself politely, "I'm Scarlett."

"Colin," he said.

Very well, we don't say our names, there is no need for people to know their identities anyway.Not to mention that he doesn't look like an ordinary person because he can afford this kind of box, and he doesn't look like an ordinary citizen. Even though he is dressed in a mediocre way, I feel that he is not a simple person.At least he has an unknown sense of superiority.

"Which station do you get off at?" Perhaps in order to prevent too cold, I continued to talk to him.

He was a little sloppy in his answer, at least the good thing was that he didn't have to stare at me: "Warwick."

I was speechless for a moment, and didn't get his reply, so I didn't say much.

I bought the ticket in a panic. After one stop, I didn't think about where I was going, just stay away from Orlando. At least I won't be able to go back in the short term.But it is impossible for me to get off at the town of Warwick, which is the neighboring town of Eddo, which means that the entire land is under the jurisdiction of Earl Reggie. If I am caught there, I can't imagine the result.All I know is that before I left, Mia brought a pile of gold coins from her husband, enough to support me for the next few days.Brianna was even more exaggerated. She let me take all her expensive jewelry with her as a pawn, but they never imagined that I was alone on an unknown journey with gold and silver treasures. Maybe they knew it, but they could only Silently pray for me.

"Little Scar, I wish you a smooth journey." My sisters took turns hugging me, I pretended not to see their tears, but couldn't help pushing Brianna, who was hugging me out of breath, and said, "Your eyelashes The ointment is coming down." She pushed me away angrily.

"Scar didn't dress up for the ball for the first time." Mia joked about the red dress I didn't change into.Normally, there is a ball in Dindark Manor. As the host, everyone in Orlando knows that Mia must wear a purple evening dress, Brianna will wear the most eye-catching yellow, and red is the one I appeared with them color.

"Wait until I come back to wear it next time." My fingertips touched the dress that I didn't have time to wear, and this sentence made the two beautiful women in front of me cry again.

The door of the box was knocked open again, I couldn't help being nervous, but I smelled grilled steak and potatoes.
