Comprehensive Victoria's Secret

Chapter 47 Admirers From Magazines

When Elizabeth received the letter from the magazine delivered by Anne, she did not expect her novel to be a big seller.

She didn't know much about the tastes of Victorian readers. She just applied the medieval background, added some brain supplements, and wrote some storylines such as heroic adventures, plus some love plots.

Elizabeth's English writing is not very good, and she can only be said to be worthy of her tutor, but she did not expect her novels to become popular.

The plot is rotten and vulgar, and the writing can only be regarded as not scumbag. Elizabeth did not expect her own novel to become popular. She did not realize a problem-the bloody in the future is also in the modern trend.

When the novel was just an ordinary serial, she didn't get a lot of manuscript fees, but now not only is the manuscript fee a lot more, but the magazine will also forward the readers' letters to her.

Elizabeth flipped through it casually, and found that the names written on it were all for Isabella Namor, and suddenly felt that this name sounded good too.

Readers in this era are actually very enthusiastic. Elizabeth took out the stationery and envelopes that are available in every shop in London that she bought specially for the purpose of not revealing her identity, and began to reply to readers, asking Anne to help her organize them.

What caused Elizabeth a headache was that many women began to ask her for advice on some things in letters. For Elizabeth, who had only survived less than 18 years in the Victorian era, these things were simply very difficult.

After she finished answering a letter, she copied the address and handed it to Annie, who sealed the envelope and mailed it together.

Most of the replies only need to write some words of encouragement. Elizabeth found that most of the letters written to her were women from middle-class families-only women of this class or even higher classes could accept enough to write letters education level.

Joseph brought a letter: "Miss, there is your letter."

Elizabeth noticed that Joseph's expression was uncomfortable, but she knew it when she saw the name-Antonio Lancaster.

Elizabeth obviously did not expect the letter to be innocent. She opened the envelope with a letter opener and saw the contents.

Antonio's font is as dazzling as ever.

Elizabeth pursed her lips and smiled when he wrote dear in Italian.

this man...

this bad guy...

Elizabeth picked up her pen and was about to reply to the letter, but found a lot of letter paper on the table.

It occurred to her that she could carry her correspondence with Antonio through the magazine!

Thinking about it, Elizabeth still felt that this was very unsafe, and even risked exposing her relationship with Antonio and her own identity, so Elizabeth continued to write back to Antonio, explaining that she was writing a novel recently, but did not disclose her pen name : "My dear Tony, you might as well guess it from my name if you can."

Elizabeth sealed the letter, and then asked Anne to send it, and then continued to write the reply letter in hand.

After finishing writing, Elizabeth had to devote herself to the social season again. Although Dungal clearly opposed her being with Antonio, he did not ask them to terminate contact, but arranged a full social season schedule for Elizabeth, only reserved for her Time for writing manuscripts and replying letters.

Dungall still pampered his daughter. Although Estelle allowed Elizabeth to write novels as a hobby, she did not allow her to make a profit.

Elizabeth kissed the letter paper. Compared with text messages, this kind of retro love letter has a different kind of sweetness.

She locked Antonio's letter in the drawer, and put the rest of the readers' letters into the letter bag.

Elizabeth asked her maids to tidy up while continuing to write letters.

When opening the next letter, Elizabeth was stunned by the content.

This is a courtship letter - the person who wrote the letter said that he admired her talent and hoped to have further development with her.

This was originally a romantic beginning, but Elizabeth already had someone she liked, and she wrote two letters with a pen.

DO NOT

Then sealed the envelope and mailed it.

The parents joined forces, although they did not prevent her from communicating with Antonio, they basically blocked the way for the two to meet.

On the day of his birthday, although the dinner party was still held and Lancaster and his son were invited, Elizabeth had no chance to talk to him, and the seats arranged at the banquet were far away from Antonio.

Although Antonio doesn't smoke, he also needs to stay with the men to chat about current affairs. Elizabeth can only drink tea in the lounge.

"I want Earl Gray tea." The maid next to her immediately poured tea for Elizabeth, and also prepared milk and sugar.Elizabeth absent-mindedly drank the original tea leaves. The taste was acceptable, but she couldn't taste it at all.

Tony...

"Give me a cup of Lady Gray tea (Lady Grey, literally translated as Lady Gray tea)."

Earl Gray tea is a flavored tea with Seville orange peel, lemon peel, bergamot essential oil and cornflower blue petals.Its tea soup is bright and light, exuding the fragrance of bergamot, citrus and lemon, luxurious and classic in style, and has a more refreshing and elegant taste than Earl Gray tea, rich and slightly fruity, delicate and sweet taste. , Because the British in the Victorian era believed that lively tea would make women impulsive, they developed this Earl Gray tea with fruit ingredients, hoping to calm the mood of ladies through the refreshing fruit fragrance.

Elizabeth felt that she needed this tea to calm her mind.

What he didn't know was that Antonio didn't smoke in the smoking room, he was directly called to the study by Dungal.

"You think you love Elizabeth very much."

"Yes."

"But what do you take to guarantee her life?" Dungal said: "Now I let her have a huge manor where she can play and hunt without restraint during the hunting season. What can you give her? The safety of the wife of the master assassin has always been No guarantee, you don't need me to cite the example of Edward Kenway, do you?"

Antonio raised his head: "I will leave the Assassin Organization and go to India to serve as an official. After three years, I will come back and marry Elizabeth as my wife."

"And are you going to settle in India? It's bad enough there. And are you going to be a 'Nabob'?"

"I stayed there for three years." Antonio lowered his voice: "I heard the gossip, because Princess Victoria will become the queen in the future, so in order to prevent the queen from needing to salute her daughter in the future, they have the idea to let the queen be crowned as the queen. Queen of India, when the time comes, Indian officials will definitely receive medals. Before I inherit the title, I can get a title and enough funds to raise a family. I hope Mr. Morgan can agree to marry Liz to me at that time. "

"You are also three years?" Dungal couldn't help but said coldly: "My daughter told me that she wants to go to Cambridge University, which is also a three-year plan-three years later, Liz will be 21 years old, and she won't need me. Agreed—is that what you think?"

Dungal was still unwilling to believe Antonio. The old grievances between the Assassins and the Templars were too deep. It was impossible for him to believe that a master assassin would willingly give up his team for his daughter.

"I just hope that Mr. Morgan agrees." Antonio softened his tone: "I don't want my wife to feel sorry for my father's absence at the wedding."

"You can go to India, but I won't keep my daughter for you. I don't care about her dealings with anyone during the social season. As long as a gentleman of the right family proposes to her, I will marry her out." Dungal said: "If Liz is still willing to be with you after three years, then it will depend on whether you can give her a better treatment."

"I believe in Elizabeth." Antonio didn't ask what would happen if he couldn't get ahead, he left the study: "I will satisfy you, Mr. Morgan."

Elizabeth finally knew the whereabouts of Antonio. She avoided people and went upstairs, and finally found Antonio at the corner of the stairs.

Antonio also saw her. He went down the stairs a few steps, and the two stood facing each other in the hall on the first floor.

A few steps away, Elizabeth looked at Antonio, and Antonio also looked at Elizabeth.

At this time, people are all gathered in the lounge, and there is no one in the hall, which is just right for them to talk.

"Tony...?" Elizabeth saw his stern face, wondering if he meant to break up.

"Ms. Elizabeth Estelle de Chany Morgan..." Antonio pronounced her full name in a precise manner, and Elizabeth had the feeling that he was going to talk about breaking up.

He came straight over and pushed her against the wall.

Elizabeth's whole body was shrouded in Antonio's shadow, she didn't know what to say, and she didn't know whether she should speak or not.

Antonio conjured a ring out of nowhere, and held out a large bouquet of roses from behind: "Will you marry me?"

Elizabeth didn't realize what was happening, she just finally found her voice: "You're going to kneel."

Antonio immediately knelt down on one knee, held the ring, and handed the flowers to her: "Miss Elizabeth Morgan, Will you marryme"

Elizabeth's eyes were a little wet: "Okay... I do."

Antonio smiled contentedly: "So, Elizabeth, shall we elope?"

"elopement?"

"Yes." Antonio has already seen the truth that Dungal is trying every means to make excuses, so he is more and more worried about the reality of long nights and dreams.

"Let's elope, just you and me, two people."

The author has something to say: Antonio, you agreed to your father-in-law, and then came to abduct his daughter to elope...Deng Gall beat you to death, believe it or not!
