"Boom..."
There was a muffled thunder in the sky, which frightened Colin into a shiver.
Of course, the timing of the muffled thunder was so coincidental that it was hard to say whether Colin was frightened by the thunder or by the words of Marquis Garcia.
He suddenly hesitated, whether he should explain the true origin of the earring to Vera's biological father.
Originally, Colin thought that it might not be a big deal for Marquis Garcia to misunderstand the relationship between him and Vera.
After all, they are just uncles and nephews.
but now…
He suddenly panicked.
It's like the feeling of just hooking up with a girl, but being blocked by the other's old father.
However, this time he finally understood why Marquis Garcia looked at him so differently.
Not because of the little military talent he showed, nor because he was a secret illegitimate son of the Marquis, but because of Vera!
That earring obviously made the Marquis of Garcia misunderstand that his daughter had a deep affection for Colin, and it might even have been secretly decided for life.
Therefore, the care along the way is actually Marquis Garcia training his future son-in-law...
But Ke Lin knew that Vera only had a good impression of him at present.
It's not at all to the point where you don't want to marry.
In case something gets revealed in the future...
Seeing Colin's stupefied look, Marquis Garcia frowned and asked, "What? Are you scared?"
"No, no. How come... I'm just a little surprised." Colin didn't dare to tell the true origin of the earrings now.
What if the Marquis Garcia thought he was concealing it deliberately and became angry from embarrassment
Moreover, with such a thick leg, Colin's brain was struck by lightning, so he didn't know how to hug it tightly.
"Boom!"
A flash of lightning flashed across the sky, followed by rolling thunder.
As if warning someone.
Ke Lin was agitated again, and quickly changed the subject: "Master Marquis, Miss Vera, does she know that you are..."
"She doesn't know." Marquis Garcia shook his head, then gave Colin a warning look, "Don't tell her, let alone anyone else!"
"Yes, yes!" Colin assured again and again.
Afterwards, he couldn't help his curiosity and asked, "Then, who is Vera's biological mother?"
Marquis Garcia frowned, and said angrily: "What are you asking about, it's no good if you know."
Colin shrank his head, and he didn't dare to ask any more questions.
Although he didn't dare to ask, it didn't mean that Colin didn't dare to think.
At this moment of effort, he has already made up a bloody drama in his mind.
And Colin found that he couldn't understand the relationship between the Duke of St. Hilde and the Marquis of Garcia.
Originally, the relationship between the two brothers was complicated and entangled enough, but now that Vera was added, it was all right, and Colin was completely confused.
Although Marquis Garcia refused to reveal the identity of Vera's biological mother, Colin was sure that she was a great nobleman.
Otherwise, the Duke of St. Hilde would not agree to adopt Vera.
After all, Vera is an illegitimate daughter, which is extremely disgraceful.
However, there is a difference between an illegitimate daughter and an illegitimate daughter.
If both her parents were noble nobles, then in fact her blood was still noble, it was only a difference of status.
The adoption of the Duke of St. Hilde is equivalent to giving Vera this status.
But by doing this, is he trying to do his brother a favor? Or do you want to use this to take Vera as a hostage so that you can control your younger brother
Also, why didn't Marquis Garcia marry Vera's biological mother
Since she is willing to give birth to a daughter for Marquis Garcia, it means that the two must be in love, so it can only be that external conditions do not allow it.
And with the status of the Marquis of Garcia, there is no woman in the entire Glorious Empire that he is not worthy of. Even if it is a royal princess, marrying him is definitely not considered humiliating.
So, what's going to stop these two from bonding
Could it be...
Colin suddenly thought of a possibility...
"What are you talking about?"
Just as Ke Lin's fire of gossip was burning, a crisp voice suddenly sounded.
When Ke Lin turned his head, he saw Vera standing behind her pretty.
The female mage wore a light blue dress today, her shimmering golden hair was tied up with a hair pin, and she obviously put on makeup. The purple eye shadow and crystal red lips made her look even brighter and more attractive.
"Ahem, Knight Colin and I are talking about the difference between a lance and a spear." Marquis Garcia lied without blushing.
Vera obviously has no interest in this topic of straight men, so she stopped looking into it after saying oh, but pointed in the direction of Ice Rock City and said:
"Look, uncle, the nobles from Ice Rock City have come out, they should be here to welcome us."
It was only then that Ke Lin noticed that a team of about a hundred people had left Ice Rock City and was walking towards the Black Cavalry camp.
A sneer appeared on the corner of Marquis Garcia's mouth, and he resumed the situation of not being close to strangers: "Then let's go too."
After speaking, he greeted him out.
Vera stuck out her tongue mischievously from behind, and smiled at Colin again: "Colin, let's go too."
"Okay." Colin looked at Vera's bright smile, but couldn't relax in his heart.
After all, the real old father of the other party is right in front, so of course it is impossible for him to get along with Vera like before.
Moreover, Marquis Garcia has already misunderstood the relationship between the two of them, and has cultivated him for so long without reservation, so if Colin can't marry Vera in the end...
What would Marquis Garcia think
You kid turned your face and denied you when you put on your pants
Thinking about the terrifying scene of black cavalry killing all over the ice field, Ke Lin suddenly felt that he must marry Vera!
Otherwise, no matter how many lives he had, it would not be enough for Marquis Garcia to kill him.
However, the final decision on Vera's marriage rests with the Duke of St. Hilde.
After all, after adoption, Vera is already the Duke's daughter legally.
Therefore, if Colin wants to marry Vera, he must be approved by the Duke.
But if the Duke of St. Hilde really gets into a fight with the Marquis of Garcia...
Where should Colin stand
Moreover, according to the development of the current situation, the probability of the two brothers pinching is extremely high!
Looking at the gloomy sky, Ke Lin felt that his own future seemed to be gloomy...
"Uncle! Welcome back in victory!" From a long distance away, I heard the loud and emotional words of Marquis Charles.
He seemed to have completely forgotten that just two months ago, his good uncle had publicly forced him to give up his position as Marquis.
"Dear uncle! I also heard about your glorious battle in Ice Rock City..."
"Boom!"
A flash of lightning flashed, and the torrential rain finally fell.
Marquis Garcia took the opportunity to interrupt his nephew's flattery: "It's raining, so don't worry about those welcome ceremonies, let's go straight to the city!"
"Okay!"
Of course the nobles who came together did not dare to object.
At this time, the Marquis Garcia, who had returned with a great victory, seemed to have become the most prestigious person in the northern border.
Even his elder brother may not be comparable to him.
Only Marquis Charles stood aside with a constipated face, a little lost.
Ke Lin suppressed his smile, and suddenly felt a little sympathetic to the actor. It seemed that every time he wanted to perform, accidents always happened.
But soon, Ke Lin had no time to sympathize with the actor.
Because, accompanied by a gust of fragrant wind, a beautiful figure suddenly rushed out from the welcoming team, and then threw himself into his arms.
All of a sudden, Colin's blood froze.
