Merritt closed the door of the upper study, and when she heard Alice's words, she couldn't help but turn around and look at Alice with a smile: "Miss Alice, you and I can't talk about the Debs family in a fair way. , If His Majesty the King finds out, then I will be out of luck. You must know that I am risking the danger for your Debs family, it is better to close the door. "
Alice was startled.
Speaking of speaking, how could Alice keep up with Merritt, the Right Prime Minister who has been in the officialdom for so long
Merritt smiled and walked to the side. There was a round table and two chairs in front of the bookshelf. Merritt usually talked with some friends here.
Merritt sat down first, then looked at Alice: "Alice, sit down too."
"Thank you, Lord Merritt." Alice breathed a sigh of relief and sat on another chair. In this study, Alice was actually the most vigilant about that bed.
"Please wait."
Merritt got up with a smile, and then actually took out a bottle of red wine and two wine glasses from under the desk, and poured half a glass for Alice and him.
"Alice, this is the 60-year-old red wine from the Blue Rain Winery of the Magnolia Empire. It tastes very good. You can try it." Merritt raised her glass with a smile.
Alice was a little worried about whether there was some kind of drug in the wine. But facing Merritt's gaze, Alice had no choice but to raise her glass and just touched it with her lips.
Merritt didn't force it either. She changed the subject and said, "Alice, you and Kalan are both engaged. I guess you know something about the Debs family. Do you know about their family's smuggling?"
"I don't know, I don't think Kalan will smuggle." Alice said quickly, "Mr. Merritt, the Debs family is still very strong, I don't think they will do smuggling."
Merritt looked at Alice with a half-smile, "It's hard to say."
"Hey!"
Merritt seemed to see something, and suddenly leaned forward in front of Alice, even his face was only about ten centimeters away from Alice's.
Alice hurried to dodge in panic.
"Don't move." Merritt shouted with a commanding tone.
Having been in a high position all the year round, Merritt's words made Alice stunned, but Alice felt a little embarrassed. Merritt looked carefully at Alice's hair, then looked down at Alice.
When they bowed their heads, Merritt and Alice's faces were only a few centimeters apart. This made Alice quickly move her head back.
Seeing this scene, Merritt smiled and returned to her position, helplessly sighed and said, "I saw a white hair on your head just now, but unfortunately you moved a bit and I couldn't find it again. "
White hair
Alice couldn't help but get irritated. She and Rowling lived together, and every day when she got up and bored, she brushed each other's hair, and often looked for gray hair. Rowling also said that she is envious of Alice, and can't find a single white hair.
Rowling can't find it when she combs her hair every day, how could this Merritt find out
It's just that Alice didn't dare to say anything more.
"Alice, you are still young, don't worry too much, the troubles will make you look old and you will have gray hair." Merritt said with concern.
Alice just remained silent.
Merritt moved the chair towards Alice, then stared at Alice and said, "Alice, you are so beautiful, and your beautiful temperament is really touching."
Alice couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed and a little embarrassed.
Merritt leaned back slightly and continued to stare at Alice: "Alice, my wives only know how to be vain and look so vulgar, but you are completely different from them. Really, you know what? When I saw you for the first time, I was blown away by you."
"I regret it, why I married those women." Merritt suddenly reached out and held Alice's hand, which made Alice's eyes widen. Merritt continued to look at Alice, "Alice, if, if I told you, I fell in love with you from the bottom of my heart, fell in love with you, would you believe it?"
Alice quickly stood up.
But Merritt held Alice's hand tightly.
"Lord Merritt, Lord Merritt, I'm Kalan's fiancee!" Alice tried hard two or three times before she pulled her hand back from Merritt's.
Merritt smiled and looked at Alice: "It's just a fiancée. It means that you are not married yet. You can marry another person. What kind of taste does Kalan, a small child, know?"
As Merritt was still approaching Alice, Alice couldn't help but keep backing away.
But Alice, who was in a panic, didn't notice it at all. She had been forced by Merritt and just retreated in the direction of the bed.
"Alice, I really like you. I swear!" Merritt looked at Alice affectionately.
Merritt did not panic. After admiring the 'Wake Up' stone sculpture, and seeing Alice herself, he really fell in love with Alice. Just this kind of love, just a kind of possessiveness.
"Lord Merritt!" Alice was a little flustered.
Suddenly Alice's legs touched the edge of the bed, and she was unsteady, and she couldn't help but fall down on the bed.
A smile appeared on Merritt's face, and she immediately leaned over to Alice, her whole body was almost close to Alice: "Alice, my goddess, fulfill the wishes of me, a mortal who is obsessed with you. Satisfy me I will fulfill your wishes, and let the Debs family clear their grievances.”
To wash away grievances
Alice saw Merritt who was close at hand at the moment, and she couldn't help but imagine the scene of her stopping Linley when they were in a small hotel with Linley when their passion reached the most important moment.
How can you give your innocence to someone like this
"My goddess, come on." Merritt's voice was soft and seemed to hypnotize people.
"no no!"
Alice suddenly pulled out the dagger from her waist and stabbed Merritt directly. At the same time, the stones on the ground also flew up and hit Merritt.
Alice, after all, is also an Earth Magician!
But Merritt was also a formidable fighter, her whole body was very responsive, her body flashed to the side at an extreme speed, and she slapped the dagger in Alice's hand and flew away.
Alice immediately hid aside and wanted to run towards the door.
Merritt reached the gate as soon as she moved, and looked at Alice with a half-smile: "Alice, do you still want to resist? With your magician strength and that dagger, do you want to resist? "
"Lord Merritt, you let me go." Alice was a little firm at this time.
"You don't want to save the Debs family? You don't want to save your fiancé Karan?" Merritt asked.
Alice looked resolute and gritted her teeth: "Even if you want to save it, it's not like this, you beast!"
"Beast?" Merritt's face changed and she sneered, "I originally wanted to have some fun, but you are so uncooperative, so I'll show you the animal."
Alice's face turned pale.
"Merritt, don't go too far." Alice hurriedly backed away in panic, and smashed the chair next to her at Merritt.
Merritt smashed the chair with a single punch.
"Don't resist, this is my mansion." Merritt said with a chuckle.
Alice watched Merritt approaching step by step, gritted her teeth and said frantically, "Merritt, don't forget, I used to be Linley's woman!!!"
This sentence made Merritt stunned.
Alice really didn't want to say that, she knew that her previous actions had already hurt Linley a lot, and she didn't want to have any connection with Linley anymore. But at this time, she had no other way.
"Linley?" Merritt stood there, frowning.
Alice bit her lip and looked at Merritt: "Merritt, I can pretend that what happened today didn't happen, but if you go too far, you can't blame me for tearing my face, I believe you should know about Linley's influential."
Merritt looked at Alice in front of her.
He was really infatuated with Alice in front of him, but Merritt knew very well that Linley and Alice had a very special relationship. From the 'Wake Up' stone sculpture alone, I could feel Linley's feelings for Alice.
"Linley does have real feelings for this Alice, if Linley knows..." Merritt got a headache.
lei.
Tough to deal with!
Even the current Linley, his influence is already very strong. No matter how strong Merritt is, he is only the right minister of a kingdom. For the Holy See of Light, it may take a lot of thought to dismiss the king of a kingdom, but to deal with the right minister of a kingdom, there is no need to think about it at all.
As long as Linley asked the Holy See of Light to help him, it would not be difficult to deal with him as a right minister.
In the future, Linley's achievements will only be higher. This is also the reason why no one from the nobles of the entire Fenlai Kingdom used ruthless means against Linley. This also resulted in Linley's eyes, those nobles treated him very politely. Every nobleman is so polite.
"Ah..." Merritt sighed deeply, "Alice, I really like you from the bottom of my heart, and my head is getting hot when I like it."
Merritt smiled apologetically at Alice: "I'm sorry, I'm awake now. Since you don't want to feel nothing to me, then I won't force you."
"Lord Merritt, I'll go first." Alice rushed to the door of the room, opened the door and rushed out.
Seeing Alice leave, Merritt, who had been regretting and apologizing just now, her eyes suddenly sharpened, her face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, and she snorted coldly: "Hmph, stinky woman!"
…
By the time Alice returned to the Debs family mansion, it was already completely dark.
At this moment, the members of the Debs family gathered in the living room to enjoy dinner. It's just that the atmosphere is not very good, after all, the family may end at any time.
"Alice, are you back?" Rowling suddenly saw Alice running in from the door.
Nimitz and the others all stood up.
"Why so fast?" Nimitz frowned. Alice came back too soon, beyond his estimates.
"Alice, let's have dinner together." Rowling greeted immediately.
Alice walked to the corridor of the living room, glanced at everyone in the living room, and said apologetically, "I'm not feeling well, so I'll go back to rest first." Alice's voice was low and hoarse.
Rowling felt that Alice's tone was wrong.
"I'll go see Alice." Rowling smiled at everyone and left the living room. Only Nimitz frowned suspiciously.
…
Alice and Rowling's room.
As soon as Alice entered the room, she threw herself on the bed, and the tears couldn't help flowing down, with endless grievances in her heart.
"What have I done? Lord, why are you punishing me like this?"
Alice roared angrily in her heart.
"I don't want anything, I just want a peaceful life, a peaceful life for my parents, and a peaceful life for myself. Why, why are you punishing me like this?" Alice felt full of grievances in her heart.
The Debs family may be doomed.
But is it her business
Why finally let her deal with Merritt
She even forced her to finally shout "I used to be Linley's woman", how difficult it was for Alice to say these words. Alice really doesn't want to shout out!
"Sister Alice, what's the matter with you?" As soon as Rowling walked into the room, she saw Alice was crying non-stop, and even the sheets were wet, and Rowling panicked and worried.
Rowling immediately went to help Alice, "Don't cry, don't cry, tell me anything, tell me."
Alice immediately turned her head and threw herself into Rowling's arms, crying even more. It was okay to have no one to comfort her, but when she was comforted, Alice felt even more aggrieved.
Rowling comforted her for nearly half an hour before Alice calmed down slightly.
"Sister Alice, what happened, tell me." Rowling looked at Alice.
Alice took a deep breath, and then slowly said all the grievances in her heart: "Sister Rowling, you also know the current situation of the Debs family. When the second grandpa came back yesterday, he asked me to talk to me alone. to make me…”
The more Rowling listened, the more angry she became.
Angry at Nimitz's behavior, feeling unworthy of Alice, angry at the behavior of that beast Merritt, and sympathizing with Alice more and more.
"I don't care anymore, I don't want to care anymore, I just want to live quietly by myself." Alice sobbed.
Rowling has also been thinking about a way out for the Debs family these days, but after hearing what Alice said just now, she also understood something in her heart.
"Sister Alice, don't be sad. No matter what, you must not be ruined by that Merritt." Rowling comforted.
Alice nodded.
"However, we also have to find a way to save Kalan and the others." Rowling said, "Big Brother Kalan is our fiancé after all."
Alice also wanted to save Karan, but she couldn't.
"We still have a way." Rowling looked at Alice, "It's just, I don't know if you're willing to do it, Sister Alice."
"Rowling..." Alice looked at Rowling, she had already guessed it in her heart.
Rowling nodded: "Yes, you go and ask Linley for help. Today, when you mentioned Linley, Merritt wouldn't dare to touch you. Obviously, Linley's influence is very large. As far as I know, not only did Linley follow The Holy See of Light has something to do with the Dawson Chamber of Commerce. Even His Majesty Clyde treats Linley not as an ordinary courtier, but as a friend. If Linley comes forward, then the hope of saving Kalan will be much greater."
If anyone in the Finlay Kingdom had the most face, it was undoubtedly Linley.
Even the Left and Right Prime Ministers can't compare with Lin Lei.
Because it was obvious that Linley would be a high-level figure in the Holy See of Light in the future. And now it is the target of the absolute end of the Holy See of Light. For Linley's sake, the two red-clothed archbishops went to Linley's hometown to pay homage to Linley's father. One can imagine the importance attached to lei.
"Big Brother Linley?" Alice felt very complicated.
In fact, Alice knew that there was a way, but she didn't want to think about it. She really didn't want to beg Linley. She felt that she didn't have the face to beg Linley.
She knew that she had hurt Linley too much. Especially when she saw the stone sculpture "Awakening from a Dream", Alice knew how deeply Linley loved her. At least once loved very deeply.
She has no face to go!
"Sister Alice, I understand your difficulties." Rowling held Alice's hand tightly, "but, Sister Alice, Brother Karan and his father are likely to lose their lives, please, Feel wronged, at least Linley won't be like that Merritt."
Alice was in pain.
"No face? My face is more important, or is the life of Brother Kalan and his father more important?" Alice asked herself in her heart, she had no choice.
"Sister Alice," Rowling begged looking at Alice.
Alice took a deep breath, tried her best to calm herself, looked at Rowling and nodded, "Okay, I'll go see Big Brother Linley tomorrow."
