The Queen Charlotte's Ball is indeed the most prestigious social ball in London. The hall of the Royal Court of Justice has completely turned into a luxurious and luxurious ballroom on this day.

Mi Le carried a bottle of champagne and hid with a goblet.At this time, no one would probably notice that he drank heavily when he was just an adult.He leaned against the thick column, looked up boredly at the spiraling rose dome, and watched the evening sun wash the tiny window grilles into crystal clear.Before he knew it, two or three glasses of champagne were poured down his throat.His mind gradually became less clear.Occasionally, someone passed by, or wanted to strike up a conversation with a slightly surprised expression, but he moved his feet to avoid it.

He regretted even more that he had promised his grandfather to come to this Laoshizi social ball.He tugged at the neckline of his little dress, which was a little out of breath, with a lonely expression on his face.This kind of place is really not suitable for him.

He poked his head out from the side of the pillar and looked into the crowd, Mi Le turned his head back again in disappointment.

It wasn't that he was drunk and couldn't see clearly whether Huo Chengan was among the well-dressed people, or that Huo Chengan obviously lied to him when he said he would come.

Angrily pouring down the wine in the glass, Mi Le aggressively poured the wine into the glass again.Every gesture has the heroic spirit of not giving up today.

He was drinking hard here, but he didn't know that Duke Edward was trying his best to sell him.

Originally, with Duke Edward's reputation and power, whoever was happy to fawn over him.It's just that the identity of the little grandson who suddenly recognized him is really not easy to say.

Who in the circle didn't know that the precious son of the dignified Duke of Nottingham would elope with a woman and run away from home, never to return.This matter has been secretly circulated as a laughing stock in the aristocratic circle for a long time.Now that Derek's son is back, it still feels like he slapped Duke Edward in the face.

But compared to these, what outsiders like to see the most is the battle for inheritance.In the past, little Ansair hadn’t come back yet, and Duke Edward had only one heir, Arthur. Laurenna married far away and married overseas and no longer cared about how to divide the inheritance. This is equivalent to the entire Nottingham Windsor family offshoot of Windsor being Arthur. stuff in the bag.Now that a second grandson suddenly appeared, it was impossible for Arthur to be stress-free.The big family has always established the elders but not the virtuous. If the little grandson is not reconciled and fights desperately, there will be many good shows to watch in London in the near future.

The other noble women and rich women did not think as much as the men. The boys from the noble families always thought that the more the better, so it was better to choose a better one to marry their daughters.No matter what happened to this Ansair in the past, at least in the future, his name will be suffixed with the surname of Windsor.

With such an idea in mind, the aristocratic circles in Britain now subtly welcome Mi Le's joining.

"Long time no see, Ed. I heard that Derek's son is back, and I haven't said congratulations yet."

Duke Edward glanced at the person coming, and his tense brows and eyes relaxed slightly.He raised his wine glass and nodded towards the other party, he could only sigh helplessly: "Long time no see, my old friend. Hey, don't talk about it. That kid really learned Derek's character ten to ten."

"You look just like when Derek asked me out for tea decades ago. It seems that the little guy is Derek's son. Where's Derek? Now that Ansair is back .Did you meet Derek? How was he going in those years."

"I see. Ansair is a filial child, and he has always kept Derek's ashes by his side."

"...Sorry, Ed."

"No, you don't have to apologize, Tim. I looked away a long time ago. Derek, the brat who always pissed me off, is gone, but there is little Ansair. We're still alive at our age." What can I think about, now I only think that Ansair can live well."

"But Ed my dear, you look troubled."

Duke Edward couldn't help but collapsed when he heard the words, and he was even more dissatisfied when he looked around the ball hall and didn't see Mi Le.

"That kid grew up with me when he was a child, and he wasn't close to me at all. He didn't even want to go back to England to live with me, but he chose to live in his small house in New York. He wants to apply for university. Are those schools in Great Britain? Will it be worse than New York? With his grades, as long as he wants, Oxford, Cambridge, and Imperial College of Technology will happily welcome him in. He refused to listen, and refused to withdraw the application form. Read Columbia. I persuaded him and he avoided me. I just didn't know what to do with him."

"Hey, relax, Ed. Is it okay to get my opinion? You used to be like this, you just let Arthur and Derek go the route you arranged, so you have a very bad relationship with them. The children have their own It’s a good idea. It can be seen that this child was raised very well by Derek, isn’t it. Don’t bow to the power.”

Listening to his friend's slightly reproachful joke, Duke Edward couldn't help but smile wryly: "I just want that kid to be closer to me. After all, after all, I missed him growing up for so many years."

"You always think so badly of everything, my dear Edward. Compared to Henry Huo, you are simply lucky."

"Henry Huo? That old thing. I noticed that he also attended this ball today. Isn't he sick in bed, why did he suddenly appear so healthy." Duke Edward frowned.

"He brought his grandson, it should be said that his brother's grandson came here together. He seems to introduce the young man to everyone on purpose, and it seems that he is going to pass on the position to the young man. The younger generation of the Huo family in the UK None of them can stand on the stage, Henry Huo Neng still feels that he can't die no matter what."

Duke Edward glanced at the well-behaved young man who was following Henry Huo, but did not express his opinion.How capable Huo Cheng'an is, Duke Edward can already know from his grandson's words of praise.

"Who is that lady next to him?" Duke Edward suddenly pursed his lips and asked.

Mr. Tim put on a monocle and looked over there, shaking his head: "I don't know whose daughter it is, and I have never seen it before."

Duke Edward was about to say something, when suddenly there was a loud and harsh sound of glass breaking from the corner of the ball.He hurriedly looked over there, but unexpectedly saw an extremely ugly face of his little grandson.He immediately realized that his child was being bullied!

Putting down his wine glass, Duke Edward flicked his sleeves and strutted over with a cane.

Old Mr. Tim couldn't stop him, so he had no choice but to keep up, while shaking his head amusedly: "Edward, Edward, I'm afraid this habit of protecting weaknesses will last forever."

Mi Le guessed that the expression on his face must be very ugly, otherwise the girl in the pretty little dress on the opposite side would not have a little pride mixed in the teary-eyed woman's eyes.

Yes, yes, anyone who was disgusted to death by a very explicit strike-up before, and then was taunted viciously and viciously by the person who was not a fan of the strike-up and turned black would not have a good face, and he was not only splashed She was dressed in red wine and was framed for stealing her jewelry.Mi Le didn't slap the woman on the spot, it was the best of humanity.

The noise was loud, and the girl saw Mi Le's face and decided that he was not someone with background, and the shame of being rejected made him want to let the whole world know about it, so that this ignorant boy would be thrown away. Face!

"Dad, my bracelet is gone! It's the bracelet my mother gave me on my birthday. It was still there before the man hit me, but...but then it suddenly disappeared..." The girl clenched her hands The skirt, pear blossoms with rainy faces are so lovable and pitiful.But one sentence couldn't be more obvious.

The bracelet was still there before Mi Le hit her, but it disappeared after the collision. Didn't they keep telling everyone to go in the direction where Mi Le stole the bracelet?

"Alisa is a good girl. Wipe away your tears. Dad will definitely bring you back the bracelet." The speaker looked 47, with a curly back, wearing a plain black suit, and looked refined.Listening to the words is probably that Alisa's father.

The crowd who came to watch really cast contemptuous glances at Mi Le, and some even began to blame the person in charge for letting a thief into the ball.

Those gazes were like silver needles piercing Mi Le's body.He doesn't feel ashamed, he just feels shame!He obviously didn't do anything, why did he accept such unfriendly scrutiny.Especially when Mi Le saw Alyssa grinning at him where the crowd couldn't see, he wanted to run away.

"I didn't do anything, even the stain on my body was done on purpose by that lady over there. I have nothing else to say." Mi Le stuck her neck and resolutely refused to bow her head.

What a broken bracelet, he doesn't even know what it looks like!

Alyssa's father obviously didn't believe Mi Le's words.He whispered a few words to the people around him and walked forward.

"I trust my daughter. She will never lie to me. If you are innocent, then you don't mind a body search. If you steal, I hope you will sincerely report to my My daughter apologizes."

"I can't let his father go like this! He must have stolen it. I want to send him to the police station, and I want him to admit to the newspapers that he is a despicable thief!" Alyssa suddenly jumped out and shouted dissatisfied. road.

Alisa's performance made the surrounding gentlemen and ladies frown a little. Why does the youngest daughter of the Constantine family seem to be raised so unreasonably?Some noble ladies with sons under their knees have already secretly thought in their hearts that if such a daughter-in-law came to the family, they would definitely be in trouble.

"No problem, I agree to these conditions." Mi Le sneered, and agreed cleanly with the unexpected expressions of the crowd, and then he changed the subject: "If it turns out that I didn't steal it. Please also invite your daughter Give me an explanation."

"It should be so." Alisa's father, Mr. Constantine was a little shaken seeing Mi Le's calmness, but the wavering was only for a short moment.He still decided to defend his daughter.

Mr. Contitantin beckoned, and the crowd moved out of the way to let a security guard in.

The white-gloved staff member nodded toward Miraku, and Miraku spread both hands in full cooperation.

"Hold on."

At this time, a lazy but not negligible voice suddenly came from behind the crowd.
