The more Tia thought about it, the more frightened she became. She looked panicked and could only sit slumped in the chair helplessly...
Fiennes certainly knew that what he said today might have shocked this 18-year-old girl.
He reached out and patted Tia's shoulder, his voice deep, seeming to comfort, but also to warn.
"Brother, I know you are confused when you first learned this, but you must understand and always remember that you are a member of the Siswell family. Don't stand on the wrong side!"
Tia's body trembled slightly, and she nodded dejectedly.
However, just three seconds later, she suddenly realized something!
Tia suddenly reached out and grabbed Fiennes' arm urgently.
"Brother, can you spare His Highness' life?"
At this moment, Tia is still thinking about how to save her lover's life...
When Fiennes heard this, he was almost vomited blood because of his silly sister!
He struggled to shake off Tia's hand. The light from the maglev car shone on Fiennes' face, making his azure pupils look bottomless and impossible to look into.
"Brother, let me ask you this first. If our family was defeated and you said this to that man, would he be moved, or even spare our family?"
Tia wanted to say yes without hesitation, but facing Fiennes' almost cold eyes, she was suddenly stunned.
Tia was terrified by the question her brother asked, and she didn't dare to think too deeply about it.
If their family is defeated, will His Highness spare them
Or to put it another way, even if she knelt before the high priest, would the high priest spare their family
The answer is actually very obvious.
But Tia was a little afraid to face it because she was afraid of the answer.
Fiennes lowered his head, and Tia's slightly pale face was reflected in his blue eyes.
"Brother, I don't ask you to help me with anything, but Tia, I don't want you to speak for outsiders. I don't want you to have illusions about the corrupt Divine Court, the High Priest, or the Emperor's son!"
Although she was sitting on a chair, Tia felt her legs were a little weak.
She bit her lip heavily, and finally could only murmur a response.
"Okay, brother, I promise you."
After saying this, Tia lost all her strength and could only look out the window.
It was the first time she realized that her brother could be so oppressive.
I felt like I was being pressed down by something and couldn't breathe at all.
Seeing that Tia agreed, Fiennes stood up. He followed Tia's gaze, glanced at the gloomy sky outside the window, and said something meaningful.
"It's going to rain..."
After he finished speaking, Fiennes also sat down and looked at Tia indifferently out of the corner of his eye.
He said these words today in order to make Tia see her situation clearly as soon as possible.
He would send someone to keep a close eye on his naive sister, on the one hand to prevent Tia from doing anything stupid, and on the other hand to protect her.
So what if you stand at the top of the four major families
Their Siswell family will one day overthrow the so-called Divine Court and become a truly admired existence!
…
On the bank of a lake somewhere in the Divine Court, a slender figure was standing blankly beside the water.
It was Su Wan.
The lake water is deep and clear, with several small red fish swimming in it. Because there is an unknown tree nearby, a few fallen leaves are floating coldly in the water.
Su Wan looked at those carefree little fishes and pursed her lips slightly.
Sometimes she felt that being a fish was happier than being a human.
Suddenly, Su Wan felt a drop of icy cold water falling from the sky, landing right on the back of her hand.
Very cool.
Su Wan was startled. She raised her head slightly and saw that the sky had become gloomy. The dark clouds gathered into clumps, covering one layer above the other.
Is it raining
Su Wan came to this conclusion calmly, but her beautiful face was numb and there was no expression at all.
She looked down at the lake and saw her face reflected in the clear water, as pale as a ghost.
Is the person reflected here her
When did she become like this? Although her appearance and facial features have not changed, she gives people the feeling of a lifeless puppet.
Su Wan tightened her fingers silently. She stared at the lake and kept looking. Suddenly, she saw a couple hugging each other reflected on the lake.
It was the same scene that was seen in the ward before, Jiang Xuecheng and Tia hugging each other.
The two people snuggled up to each other like close lovers.
The scene was pleasing to the eyes no matter how you looked at it, but in Su Wan's eyes, it was filled with heartache.
Jiang Xuecheng never liked other women getting close to him before.
But…
Jiang Xuecheng now lets Tia hug him. Does it mean that he also accepts Tia
Su Wan pursed her lips tightly, her eyes slightly red, she rubbed her eyebrows, her expression showing sadness.
The scene in the lake was still Jiang Xuecheng holding Diya. The more Su Wan looked at it, the more it irritated her. She couldn't help but bend down and half-kneel on the ground, constantly slapping the phantom in the water with her hands.
Why hasn’t that phantom disappeared yet
Because of Su Wan's action of slapping the water, the little red fish that emerged from the lake for air were startled and swam to the side.
A strong cold wind blew, and Su Wan's thin clothes were blown up.
Raindrops suddenly fell, one drop after another, onto Su Wan's clothes, face, and shoulders...
Su Wan was soaked through, but she had no intention of moving to avoid the rain.
The wind blew on my face and it hurt.
She raised her head, and the cold raindrops ran down her cheeks. She couldn't tell whether it was rain or tears falling from Su Wan's face.
Su Wan was already in poor health, and in the strong wind and heavy rain, she was so cold that her face turned pale, and she couldn't help coughing.
Forget it. Just because Jiang Xuecheng and Diya hugged each other, was she going to sit here in the rain like an idiot? !
We have already agreed to leave the Divine Court, so why should we feel sad about these things
Su Wan laughed at herself and was about to stand up slowly, but after sitting on the ground for too long, her legs couldn't help but go weak and she almost fell into the lake.
Su Wan's heart sank, and he subconsciously wanted to grab the stone next to him in a hurry.
However, before she could pull the stone, she heard hurried footsteps behind her and the sound of something being thrown away.
Su Wan felt someone pulling her hard. Her balance was unstable and she was suddenly pulled back by the person behind her.
The sky was as dark as ink, and heavy rain was pouring down. The rain kept falling down Su Wan's hair and seeping into her thin clothes.
She raised her eyes and saw Jiang Xuecheng.
The slender figure stood in front of him, and a large black umbrella was tilted not far away.
Jiang Xuecheng grabbed Su Wan by the collar and yelled at her!
"Do you really want to kill yourself and leave me?!"
