Mademoiselle Marie-de-Leolan's seemingly well-behaved answer made the Marquis of Treville smile even more cheerfully. ◎Dian Dian novel, even though he knew that this child would definitely not have a good impression of him in his heart, he didn't care.

"Ha, I have known for a long time that you are a very smart child, and now it seems that it is true." He couldn't help but sigh softly, "As long as you continue to assist him, I will be relieved..."

Although he has various shortcomings, and sometimes he is even cruel and inhumane, at least this old man's care and love for his grandson are not compromised at all.

"This is also very beneficial to me, so I have no reason not to do it." Mary answered directly. "Isn't it the fact that I am attached to him that you like?"

"No, you are interested in your clear mind." The old Marquis waved his hand and once again expressed his interest in the other party, "There are many people who are willing to attach themselves to our family now, but children like you Not much, to a certain extent, I have entrusted my grandson to you..."

After he finished speaking, he stood up and prepared to go back and take a rest.

However, as soon as he reached the door, he met his personal servant. After whispering for a while, he came back with a strange expression.

Because she had some inconvenience in moving, Mary did not stand up from the chair quickly. She was slightly surprised when she looked at the old man who left and returned soon.

"Do you have anything else to explain?"

"There is something troublesome, miss." The old Marquis' tone had some unclear meaning.

"Well...that Miss de Dillion just came to visit our house."

After a moment of silence, Mary quickly regained her composure.

"Her? Why did she come over suddenly?"

Could it be that he heard what he did in private?

Not likely. Neither this old thing nor that person would have any motive to publicize this kind of thing.

Say it again. Even if she knew it, she would have no reason to accuse herself - aren't we all the same?

"Who knows." The old man frowned slightly, then raised his head to look at Mary and sneered, "Maybe she missed Charles. After all, Charles said he hadn't seen her for many days."

He wanted to see something like embarrassment or jealousy on Mary's face, but she failed. Mary's expression remained calm.

However, although it seems calm. But her mind had already turned away from the complicated thoughts.

Will Matilda really fall in love with that person?

After all, they had been together for several years, and she knew Matilda well. She was not the kind of person who would fall in love with others easily.

Could it be that these two people have something else hidden behind them?

"Really? Then you have no reason to stop her?" Maybe it was sarcasm, maybe it was teasing, Mary looked at the old man with a slight smile, "I think no matter how bold she is, Matilda will not dare to Why don't you just go to bed with Charles?"

"Humph, who knows. Today's young people are all messing around." The old man replied with some dissatisfaction. "Especially you girls, now that you've received more education, you all feel daring!"

Apparently, he still felt a little aggrieved by Matilda for "seducing" his grandson.

but. Maybe he suddenly thought that he had hit the other person by mistake, or maybe he didn't want the child to see his joke, so he quickly calmed down his emotions.

"Yes. Of course I don't intend to stop her. What's the reason? No one wants to spread the scandal. However, I also don't want to see her and pretend to smile to receive her..." The old man still looked at Mary. It seemed like he was asking her what she should do. "What do you think now? Why don't you avoid her first?"

Even he could see that in his grandson's heart, Mary's status was inferior to Matilda's in any case. If there was any conflict, it would ruin his plan. So it doesn't seem like a wise strategy to have a showdown with her now.

However, contrary to his expectations, Mary smiled slightly.

"No, what is there to avoid? I would like to see her later, if you can allow me."

"Huh?" The old man couldn't figure out what tricks she suddenly wanted to play. "What do you mean?"

Does she want to regret it?

"Don't worry, I will complete the task you assigned." Mary was still smiling, seemingly unmoved by the other party's suspicion. "Could it be that, at this point, do you think I will still do stupid things?"

After staring at each other for a moment, the old man finally lowered his gaze again and gave in to the child a little. "Okay, it's up to you. Now you have my trust. As long as you can achieve your goal, you can choose the method."

I can trust you now, but if you dare to play tricks with me, you know the consequences yourself. Although this sentence was not stated explicitly, the meaning was clearly expressed through his eyes.

Mary stood up slightly unsteadily, then reluctantly bowed to him.

The old Marquis just nodded slightly towards her, and then strode out of the room.

………………

Charles certainly didn't know about the private agreement between Marie and the Marquis de Treville. Although he felt that his grandfather was unusually excited today, he never thought that he would do such a thing behind his back.

However, he didn't handle his official business for long before he heard the news of Matilda's visit. He immediately stopped writing a letter and prepared to go over to receive the other party.

However, at this time, Charles felt more uneasy than happy.

The reason is naturally self-evident.

He quickly came to the reception room and pushed the door open and walked in.

When the door opened, Matilda immediately raised her head, and when she saw that it was Charles. She showed a smile from the heart on her face.

"Charles, good morning."

This smile made Charles forget his anxiety for a while.

"Matilda, good morning. Why did you think of coming here today?" He asked with a smile.

Then, after making sure that there was no one around, he quickly walked to Matilda's side, stretched out his hand, and gently wiped her face.

This overly intimate behavior made Matilda blush slightly, but she did not struggle. She only spoke after Charles' hand left.

"Is your sister at home? I haven't seen her for a long time, so I want to come and see her."

"Oh. She is at home today, probably in the bedroom now." Charles nodded, "She hasn't been feeling well recently, so she doesn't go out much. You can go and see her later."

"Oh, really? That's really worrying. I'll go over later." Matilda looked a little worried about this, and then looked at Charles hesitantly, with a little flicker behind the glasses.

Although these words were flawless. But Matilda's expression made it very clear - because they hadn't seen each other for a long time recently, she couldn't help but want to come and see Charles. After making sure that Charles was resting at home, she came to visit.

So, she is a little entangled now. She is really worried when she hears that her friend is not feeling well, but she doesn't want to leave Charles so soon.

It was not until recently that she realized that she liked him more than she thought. However, she soon didn't need to worry about it. Because Charles leaned down and kissed her lips. "Mmm!" Matilda, who was suddenly attacked by him, made a muffled groan. Although she had a little reflexive resistance when she was attacked, Matilda soon gave up the struggle, closed her eyes and kissed Charles. It was not until a long time later that Charles raised his body again and looked at Matilda with a smile. After all, it was in his own home, and Charles dared to do only this much. "Please accept my apology, Matilda. I'm sorry that I haven't had time to see you recently..."

"It's okay. I know you have important things to do." Matilda's face was full of red clouds, and she didn't even dare to look at Charles. "But...but...I want to ask, are you free these days? I want to go to Miss de Perriette's salon again...Although I can go alone, I think...it would be more pleasant if you could accompany me..."

These intermittent but loving words made Charles feel happier.

"Ha, of course, when the most urgent things are dealt with recently, I can find a gap, and then we can go together?"

Then, he couldn't help but add, "How about we meet there first?"

By the way, do something you like-this sentence is already written on her face.

Matilda glanced at Charles with a look that said "You don't have to be so direct!", and then nodded silently.

Then, she became serious again, her face regaining its usual reserved and indifferent look.

"Then, we'll see each other then, sir." She bowed respectfully to Charles, as if they were strangers, "I'll go see your sister first."

"Oh, go ahead," Charles spread his hands, "You are the best guest in my house, you can do whatever you want."

He was already looking forward to seeing her again in a few days.

In this way, after the two of them were affectionate for a while, Matilda put on her appearance again, walked out of the reception room, and walked towards her friend's bedroom.

In order not to arouse suspicion, she deliberately waited until Charles left first before coming out.

Although she came to see Charles, she was still a little worried after hearing the news about Fran.

Just as she walked to the corridor, a greeting sounded from the side.
