Millverton House, Hampstead, London, Spring 1871

"What did you say? Someone bought The Times first?! Impossible, obviously through a special intelligence channel, I should be the first to know the news, how could I be preempted by someone." A man with curly hair and glasses looked pale. With a bit of black air, he waved away the documents on the table angrily, "What's going on? Has anyone leaked the news?"

"Do you know the background of the person who acquired it?" Although the man was impatient, he decided to find a remedy first. "You must master all the media. I am sure to acquire The Times, no matter who is behind the acquisition."

"It has been found out. He is the adopted son of the Moriarty family, Louis James Moriarty." Another handsome man stood in front of the table and reported the information in his hand.

"Earl Moriarty's family?" His eyes were fixed. Earl Moriarty is a nobleman who just succeeded the earl last year. He has collected information in his network, but most of the information recorded is the information of the earl himself. When he was young, his house caught fire and was taken care of by the Earl of Rockwell, and he inherited the title of Earl when he became an adult. There are not many records about his two younger brothers.

"Adopted son... Are they on good terms?" the curly-haired man asked, "There are not many records about this, but the three Moriarty brothers live with Earl Moriarty's fiancée in the small town of Durham , It has been more than a year, and I have not heard any rumors so far, so there should be no discord."

"Hmph, even if they really have a good relationship, I will definitely ask him to return the things he took away from me. Prepare the car. I will go to Durham to check the situation in person." The curly-haired man said, putting the trench coat on Put it on, picked up the bowler hat and put it on, the man in front of him saluted, "Yes, Lord Milverton."

It turns out that he is Charles Augustus Milverton, an entrepreneur who has risen in recent years. He owns many newspaper offices and advertising companies, especially Heim News Agency, which is a mainstream newspaper in the UK, is also his business. He should have As the king of the media, since last year, there have been many chain newspapers in London, "Louis Communications Agency", and the boss behind them basically never shows up, so Milverton still doesn't know who the person who has been fighting against him is. This time, he finally caught the fox's tail, but what he lost was a big business.

The Times was born in 1785 and has a history of almost a hundred years. It has a very high status at home and abroad. The usual circulation has exceeded the sum of the circulation of other major newspapers in London. A big gold mine, but at that time Milverton recently learned that the editor-in-chief of The Times, in order to wipe his ass for his son who lost his fortune in gambling, embezzled public funds and caused printing costs and other funds to be broken. The reputation will be greatly affected, and the market price of the stock will also drop. This funding loophole must be filled quietly, and this time is the best opportunity to join in as a shareholder, or even occupy a large number of shares to gain control. It was because the information network was already very detailed that he learned the news. Who knew that someone else would have preempted him before he could make a move, and this time he finally let him know the identity of his old opponent.

No matter what happens, as long as it is written in the newspaper, it is the fact, and this is the power of the newspaper, so mastering the media is equal to mastering the power to reverse black and white, and as the number one existence in the newspaper, the Times is helping him monopolize Opportunities for newspapers and newspaper offices must not be relinquished to others.

Moriarty Manor, Durham

"Be careful." "Is this how you hold it?" Under Michelle's careful eyes, the girl gently took over the baby who was still in the swaddling position. She had only seen someone else hold her, and this was the first time she felt the feeling of holding a baby by herself.

It was soft and fluffy, like a fragile product that would fall if you were not careful. The girl felt too much pressure after hugging it twice, so she quickly returned it to Michelle. Michelle took the child with a gentle motherly smile on her face. , Stretched out her fingers, the baby's tiny hands wrapped her fingers, Michelle smiled and rolled her eyes again. "So cute."

The girl looked at Michelle, who was completely exuding the brilliance of motherhood at this moment, and she couldn't help but feel a little envious in her eyes. In her last life, she was full of repulsion for getting married and having children, because the parents she saw were at odds since she was a child, and she saw many others later. The terrible case is full of fear and disgust. After coming to this world, I gradually let go of my heart and no longer let myself be lonely. I am not so afraid of getting married, but she may not be so lucky to marry the person I like.

Michelle noticed the look in Chrissy's eyes, and couldn't help but joked, "Speaking of which, Chrissy, haven't you and Earl Moriarty been engaged for more than a year, and it's time to get married? I can do it by then." Help you take care of the baby."

The girl was stunned for a second, she shook her head and said nothing, Michelle saw that she didn't seem very happy, and couldn't help being affected, "What's the matter, Chrissy, don't you like Earl Moriarty? ?” She could only think of this possibility. After all, she heard that the marriages of nobles are not decided by themselves. Although she has a good impression of Earl Moriarty, he is a very upright and rigorous nobleman, and he seems to have a good temper. He is also a good match for Chris in terms of appearance, but if Chris doesn't like it, she won't fully support him.

Girls naturally wouldn't express their thoughts, because that would be treason and a sin for an overly ordinary person.

"It's nothing, it's getting dark, and you're tired with the kids, I'll take you back." The girl stood up, "Don't bother me?" Michelle usually walked around the town without caring about the distance. , "No matter how light it is, it's still a weight. You will definitely get tired after walking for a while, so come on up." The girl called the carriage and beckoned Michelle to come up.

Michelle can only accept Chris's kindness. This year, she has fully understood this family. They are all very approachable types, especially Chris, who is very considerate. She doesn't care about one thing, but Chrissy will notice.

michelle's house

Because of the drop in rent in the small town, Barton's income can also be saved. Michelle helps Chris in the manor, and Chris will also pay her, so their house is currently expanding. At least one more child will not be crowded in the future, and there will be no wind leakage, cold or the like.Mr. Button was standing at the door as if waiting for Michelle to come home. The girl was sitting in the carriage, watching Michelle with a happy smile, holding the child and walking towards Mr. Button. Mr. Button had a relieved smile.

Michelle did not forget to wave goodbye to Chris, and the girl responded with a smile, and then got into the carriage to go home.

As soon as she got off the carriage, the girl saw another carriage coming towards her. She stood at the door and waited for a while. It was William, but it seemed a little different from usual. Covered, a little hazy, and a little slow in walking, the girl was puzzled for a moment, but then stepped forward to support him, and there was an obvious smell of gin in her nose, this is strong alcohol, and minors cannot Drinking a bar, obviously during school, could it be that he was poured by his classmates.

As if sensing that someone was supporting him, William's leg was unsteady, and he leaned on the girl's shoulder. Fortunately, the girl had exercised a lot in recent years, so she sat down on the ground without being hit. It was the first time I saw William losing his composure, so I really couldn't drink alcohol, but other than that.

The girl noticed that apart from the smell of alcohol, the smell of scrolls and ink on William's body, the two golden strands of hair brushed the girl's neck, making her wave it away uncomfortably, but leaned on her shoulder. William, who was on the bed, could not help but graze the girl's neck with his breath, causing a shudder.

The girl almost missed and pushed him away, and her ears turned red quietly. Although the carriages were gone and there were only her and William at the door, she still seemed embarrassed and shy. This is the first time that she has been so close, especially since the person in front of her is someone she likes, and the girl who has recognized her own heart and no longer makes excuses for herself cannot resist leaving William behind.

Although there was no one at the door, the girl couldn't just stand like this, let William lean on her like this, her shoulders and legs would be sore, the girl shook William twice, "Wake up, go to the room first, go back to the room and sleep again. "

William blinked blankly, his light golden eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings, delicate and beautiful, he raised his head as if he saw who was in front of him, and showed a gentle smile like a breeze, "Chris."

Seeing his bright smile, the girl also smiled helplessly, "Yeah." There are also chairs on the floor, you can bask in the sun, drink afternoon tea and so on on weekdays, but sitting here at night, is it to feed mosquitoes?The girl wanted to get up, but she couldn't get up because of William's forceful pull, so she simply sighed and sat next to her.

"What's the matter?" The girl didn't know whether William was awake or drunk at the moment, "Why did you drink today?"

"I finished the unified exam today, and I was dragged to the tavern by my classmates." William said this with a rather aggrieved look. Although he had the power to prevent people from being dragged away, he couldn't use it against his classmates, so he was dragged away anyway. , and because a certain classmate had recently broken up in love, they were dragged to drink a few glasses of gin together, and then they became a little drunk. Thanks to him remembering to come back, otherwise he would definitely make everyone anxious if he didn't return home at night.

"Okay, get up, I'll get you some honey hydrolysis to hangover." The girl just got up and was forced to sit down again by William, and because she couldn't stand firmly and leaned on William, she sat up straight but couldn't help herself. She was wrapped around the waist by William's arm, preventing her from getting up.

"Don't go, Chris." William muttered, "Don't hangover, you're not drunk." "Okay." The more you say that the one who is not drunk must be very drunk, the girl knows this and is helpless Sitting here is blown by the cold wind. Fortunately, it is spring now and it is not very cold, otherwise it is inevitable to catch a cold.

William was quiet for a while, and the girl felt that she wanted to get up in this awkward posture, but the hands on her waist refused to let go. The girl closed her eyes and sighed. Everyone hasn't come back yet. When she came back, she saw this I don't know if there will be a misunderstanding.

"Why are you sighing, don't you like sitting with me?" William used that aggrieved tone again, this time staring at her together, as if he would not let her go without getting a satisfactory answer.

"How come..." the girl said in a slightly soft voice, "How could I not like you."

Although her voice was very small, William still heard it with sharp ears. His eyes changed from half-drunk and half-awake to sober. The red eyes seemed to have set off a huge wave and tsunami. He closed his eyes. After closing her eyes and then opening them, Chrissy still had her head down and didn't know what she was thinking.

The bony fingers lifted her chin, and a pair of lips with a trace of warmth pressed against them, completely conveying the body temperature of another person, the girl immediately shut down, opened her mouth blankly, and lost her eyes. Focus distance, I just feel that William seems to be a little too close, and his breath hits his face. William's movements are as gentle as kissing a rose, and those gentle and doting eyes make the girl recover again. Immersed in the eyes can not extricate themselves.

How did the matter develop to this point? I don’t know how to breathe at all. The girl who kissed for the first time was still thinking about it when she collapsed on top of William faintly due to lack of oxygen.
