Although she didn't remember much, just hearing his voice made her restless heart feel at ease.
As they walked, there was a faint light in the darkness that illuminated the front. Helena lifted the hem of her skirt and ran over in a hurry, but she didn't see the little boy she thought she would meet.
In the soft and non-glare light, stood a young man who couldn't see his face clearly.
When Helena saw him, he probably also saw Helena, then turned around silently, and left into the distance.
He didn't say a word, but just seeing such a vague figure, Helena couldn't help but burst into tears.
Like the despair that couldn't be conveyed, and the emptiness that couldn't be answered, the bottomless sorrow kept climbing, blocking her throat, making her almost unable to speak, and could only open her mouth with sobs.
"Don't go, I..."
Helena woke up from her sleep.
It took several minutes for her to recover from the pain and sorrow in the dream.
But even now that she knew that it was just a dream, Helena was still in a trance, and the huge sense of loss and anxiety still lingered in her heart, lingering for a long time.
In the afternoon, when Flora came to visit her, she found that Helena was out of her mind, so she asked her what happened.
Helena hesitated for a moment, but with her trust in the saint and the fact that there might be a way to restore her memory, she replied.
"I seem to...remember something again."
Flora slightly tightened her hand holding the teacup.
... Is Miss Sirunita's operation really all right?
Although Helena's clear memory really only stays at a very young age, and there is no memory of entering Stuart's house, but when she sees a child, she thinks that she has a younger brother, which still makes Flora feel, Maybe the situation is different from what Langdon and Cyrunita expected.
But she had to stabilize first, it couldn't be nothing, but her reaction revealed something...
So Flora asked with concern: "What do you remember?"
Helena looked at her own reflection in the teacup, and felt a slight resistance to this strange yet familiar face. When she heard Flora's question, she raised her head and replied softly, "I seem to have... people."
Flora: "..."
Because Helena has lost some memories, now she doesn’t have the usual aristocratic twists and turns, emphasizing the sense of space and privacy, etc., with a simple and honest trust, she briefly told Flora about her life. dream.
Flora was silent for a while, thinking that this sounded like Langdon: "How do you know it's someone you like? Maybe it's your family?"
Helena laughed and said, "Your Highness, I can still distinguish between family affection and love. When I think back to my younger brother, I don't feel that way."
Flora endured it very hard.
That's because you thought your brother was only seven or eight years old! ! !
In fact, Flora had suspected that Helena liked Langdon before, but only when she was in the principality.
Ever since Langdon moved to the Imperial Capital for his studies, and Helena followed him, Flora was not so sure about her guess.
Because Helena became more and more powerful and unquestionable, the original warmth towards Langdon was gradually replaced by the desire to control, and even if Langdon showed dissatisfaction and disgust, she followed suit.
This is not like the performance of liking someone, Flora also felt at this stage that Helena might really only regard Langdon as her younger brother.
But now it sounds like Helena really likes Langdon...
Her feeling may be correct. Helena should have entered a state of illness after coming to the imperial capital. She couldn't even be responsible for her own actions, let alone understand what she had done. It really couldn't be used as a reference.
"However, after seeing that figure, you felt very painful... Is this considered liking?" Flora still doesn't quite understand how Helena distinguishes between family affection and love.
"...Well, it's very sad and painful." Helena pressed one hand on her heart and murmured, "But, I'm also very happy, just thinking of this person's existence makes me so happy... ..."
Helena guessed that she might be secretly in love with the other party, and it was a fruitless relationship, so thinking about this person would make her feel so uncomfortable.
"Your Highness." Helena looked at Flora, "Do you know who this is?"
Flora's eyes faltered: "This, I'm not very clear..."
After all, Helena may still go to school in the future, and there are quite a few people who know her, so in terms of identity arrangement, it is impossible to tear too much from before.
So the new identity that Langdon arranged for Helena was basically the same as before, with only some adjustments in details.
The main adjustment is the relationship with Langdon.
Originally, Helena was directly adopted by the duchess, but now Helena was adopted by a nobleman of the Stuart family after her parents died, but she passed away last year, so she entrusted her to her nephew—that is, the current Landon, Grand Duke Stuart, looked after.
Langdon had a good relationship with Helena's adoptive father, because he still took care of Helena, and after bringing him to the imperial capital, he claimed to be his sister.
Anyway, Helena's previous social circle was concentrated in the Principality of Stuart, and she didn't know many people in the imperial capital. Most of them were members of the Stuart family or schoolmates.
Langdon from the Stuart family will order them not to leak anything. As for the school... Helena has no friends, and most of her classmates are civilians. I really don't know about Helena's situation. Helena will only think that outsiders don't understand the real situation when talking about your Duke's younger brother.
According to how much Helena likes to study, as long as Langdon is excluded, she will be able to study with peace of mind, and then as long as the blood magician has a solid foundation, she can apply for an assessment and rating, so she doesn't have to study for a year and leave school early, Langdon Give her a job, and before the demon army comes, Helena can live a stable life.
... If nothing else, it was originally arranged like this.
As for Flora, according to her personality, she is a friend of Chief Stuart and was entrusted to take care of Helena, so Helena also trusts Flora quite a bit.
Even in Helena's mind now, she may think that her relationship with Flora is better than that of the Duke who is the head of the family.
But amnesia belongs to amnesia, Helena only forgot some experiences, her IQ has not lost.
Seeing Flora's reaction, Helena suspected that Flora might know the person she mentioned.
As for the person whom she and Flora could both know, Helena had no memory after all, and based on her background, she could only think of the Grand Duke Stuart.
... If this is the case, she can understand why thinking of that person makes her feel so painful.
Because wanting to marry such a noble person must be wishful thinking... Unless she can become a super powerful magician, she can't match him at all.
Helena thought to herself.
In fact, it doesn't matter if he has lost his memory now, and it makes him so sad to think of him. If he didn't lose his memory, wouldn't it be so painful that he wanted to die.
However, what kind of person was the one she liked once? Even though Helena kept persuading herself not to make the same mistakes, the desire to understand the other person still arose in her heart.
Want to see him.
One side is fine, as long as she sees her once, she will give up, and she will never let herself fall into a situation where her soul is aching because she doesn't get a response.
"Sister Helena!"
The immature call came from the garden gate, and Helena turned her head away, showing a bright and gentle smile involuntarily.
Although she quickly regained her indifferent expression, she still felt quite gentle: "Martin, run carefully... I'm sorry, Your Highness, I'm going to play with Martin for a while."
A little boy named Martin is the child of a certain bishop. He will come to the temple these days. For some reason, he has a good affinity with Helena, and he often comes to play with her.
Flora also heard about Helena's agreement with that little boy yesterday, so she didn't say anything, and thoughtfully said that you can just play and leave me alone.
But Flora didn't leave, but sat in the garden, watching Helena play with little Martin with her face propped up.
Helena is very considerate and careful to little Martin, even if it is a very naive game, she will patiently accompany him to play, and she will not use the tone of command at all, but the tone of discussion.
When Flora went to Langdon to report the situation, she couldn't help but mention it.
"You should really go and see the current Helena... I almost forgot that she had that kind of time. It's true that when she first came to Stuart's house, she was quite cute..."
At that time, Flora was only a little jealous of Helena being adopted by the Duchess, but she didn't hate Helena that much, and the real hate was a later matter.
Without the teaching of the Duchess and the gradual development of paranoia in the later stage, Helena might really grow into a good sister.
Flora remembered Helena's answer to her own question when she played with Martin for the first time.
"...Maybe it's because I used to have a younger brother. When I saw children of the same age, I couldn't help but want to take care of them more."
Yes, Helena now thinks that her younger brother has passed away, otherwise Langdon would not be able to conjure up a younger brother for her, and he would be exposed because he didn't feel it when they met, so Flora could only try to make sense of the logic .
A person who is so kind and gentle to children of the same age as "his younger brother" will only be more pampering and tolerant towards "his younger brother".
It was only at this time that Flora realized how much influence the Duchess, whom she didn't know, had on Helena.
She rambled on about Helena's recent situation, hesitated for a moment, concealed the information that "I think there is someone I have a crush on", and then asked Langdon.
"Actually, to determine whether her memory is stable or not, you only need to meet her and see her reaction...Langdon, what do you think? Think about it?"
[ps: There are still 23 monthly tickets to add at night, I am now in a coma during the day, and very energetic at night...]
44. Failed Duanshui (3k)
Langdon was trying to imagine what a gentle and caring Helena must have been like.
He does have a little impression of the Helena that Flora mentioned when she first came to Stuart's house, but the key words are so connected with each other, and the only thing in his mind is the little girl who cries at every turn. Langdon couldn't imagine how gentle and considerate Helena was when she was an adult.
Although Helena in the past two years was not as extreme as recently, when she was in the principality, even if Helena liked to preach, her attitude was indeed quite gentle.
But gentleness is the limit, gentleness...
Langdon couldn't imagine.
But Flora has obviously relented.
She probably still felt that the method of erasing memories was too cruel, and even knowing that there was no better way, she still couldn't bear it, so that her position shifted slightly.
However, when Langdon saw Helena's blood pressure exploded once, and how much trouble Helena had caused Langdon, Flora's position was limited, so she just helped to say a few good words.
"As long as she doesn't think of you after meeting, you can rest assured, right?"
Langdon pondered for a while, then shook his head: "Forget it, it's better not to go to see him..."
It is said to delete the memory, but in fact it is just hiding all the memory. It is a magic version of hypnosis, otherwise the memory will be destroyed by no one. Now is the time when the memory is unstable, so there is no rush to test it.
Although according to the new setting, Helena would not come to him all the time, or she would go crazy if he didn't see her for a while, but after all, the imperial capital is so big, and they are all in the same school, so they will see each other sooner or later.
Flora couldn't tell whether she was sorry or happy.
... She really still cares about the secret love that Helena said, if she meets Langdon, maybe she can find out something.
Helena now seems to have emotionally split Langdon into two because of amnesia.
One is the image of her younger brother who was underage when she was a child. She indulged and doted on her younger brother.
One is the image of the young man he is now, closer to Helena's current age, and she thinks she likes this person.
Flora guessed that if Helena didn't make a mistake about family affection and love—this possibility is relatively low, after all, Helena has a "brother" for comparison—that is, Helena didn't make a mistake until before she lost her memory. Know exactly what feelings you have for Langdon.
It's not impossible, after all, Helena's status is quite embarrassing, she was originally an adopted daughter, if she still showed her love for Langdon, she would probably receive more gossip than Flora herself did when she was a child.
Helena has always been good at self-restraint and self-deception, maybe she will think that her sister's status is more legitimate, and she can discipline Langdon better, so she ignores her other feelings for Langdon.
As for whether Helena likes someone other than Langdon...
To be honest, it's not that Flora has a filter, as long as she is a girl who is familiar with Langdon, it is basically impossible for her to fall in love with other men.
There are very few people in this world who respect girls like Langdon, and who can maintain the most basic sympathy even with strangers, rather than relying on class distinctions. rare.
It's not that other people can't pretend to be like this, but it's different from the real one, and the saint, who is pursued by countless noble youths, has a very right to say about it.
"Okay, see you later, let her continue to recuperate in the temple for a few days." Flora sighed, "I came this time to take her textbooks back, otherwise she will be prone to wild thoughts when she is idle... ...have you had someone clean it up?"
"It's packed, just let me know when you leave." Langdon looked up at the time, "But it's already late, why don't you leave after dinner?"
This was a rare invitation from Langdon. Flora immediately put Helena's affairs behind her and responded excitedly: "Okay! What are you going to have for dinner? Do you want me to cook you something new? Although I've been too busy recently to practice, but I often think about it before going to bed, so I came up with something that feels delicious..."
Before Langdon could respond, someone knocked on the study door.
After a while, the old butler came in, with no emotion on his old face, and said in a flat and polite tone: "Duke...His Royal Highness is here to visit."
Langdon: "..."
I always feel that this situation seems a little inexplicably familiar.
He and the old butler looked at each other for a few seconds, and suddenly realized.
ah!This is not just a few days ago!Was it a reversal of fortune the night Bellatrix's mother died? !
At that time, Bellatrix was with him in the study, and Flora paid a sudden visit, but now it's the other way around...
Langdon subconsciously went to see Flora.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but Flora's bright and lovely smile just now looks a little smirk.
Talking also seems to be eccentric.
"What's the matter? The princess is visiting, do you want to go down to greet her?"
Looking at this scene, the old housekeeper was both relieved and distressed: Oh, the duke is so popular, he is so happy, maybe he will soon see the birth of the young master, but it’s okay to be uncertain, and always meet Seeing such an embarrassing choice between the two, wouldn't it be better to make a quick decision?
Whether it's a princess or a saint, he supports them all!
Who else in this world can choose between a saint and an elf princess like his duke! ?No!
