"Nonsense!"

Matilda shouted angrily because she could no longer listen to Mary's words. ∈♦Capstone novel,

The living room fell into calm again.

Because she was a little excited, her breathing was a little messy, her chest kept rising and falling slightly, and she looked at her friend heartbrokenly. The other one looked back at him with a slightly mocking expression, without any fear or guilt.

After they stared at each other for a while, Matilda finally looked away.

Although the anger and shame of having her lover taken away from her still remained in her heart, when the anger faded, she unexpectedly felt that she could understand the other person's mood a little bit.

"Sorry, Mary." She looked down at her hands. "I shouldn't have said that to you."

"It doesn't matter, you are qualified to say that." Mary replied calmly, and then couldn't help laughing, "To tell you the truth, from the beginning, I had expected that you would get angry and even slap me... now It’s just that I should feel lucky instead?”

"Don't be like this... okay?" Matilda sighed softly with a nostalgic look, "We...we were such good friends!"

Precisely because they were friends, she was worried about the other person's safety at that time.

It is precisely because they are friends that she feels double pain for what the other person does.

Accompanying this pain is an unprecedented confusion.

How should she face these sudden things?

Should I bid farewell to Ciel? But when faced with that kind of deliberate temptation, a man can't control himself. Is it really weird? In a sense, hadn't she tried it herself?

But. If she pretends nothing happened and ignores it, she will feel angry again.

Just when she was still feeling uneasy about it. Mary spoke again.

"Aren't we friends now? Matilda?" Mary also sighed, "The most regretful thing about us is that we have grown up, that's all. Maybe you hate me now, I can understand, But I definitely don’t have any ill intentions towards you... That’s why I came to you at this time. Do you think I came to you just to show off my victory in front of you and to make you angry? "

"Then what are you doing for?" Matilda asked.

When she asked, she suddenly seemed to feel something in her heart. Then he opened his eyes slightly and looked at Mary in disbelief.

As expected of Matilda, even though she was so flustered just now, she has regained her mind again! Mary couldn't help but praise in her heart.

"Yes, I want to find a solution between us." Mary nodded, "Although such an unpleasant thing happened, I still hope to restore my friendship with you, because it is very important to me. important."

"Save?" Matilda looked at Mary in surprise.

"Don't you hope to save all this?" Mary replied with a smile, "Or do you hope that we will really fight for the Charles as the old gentleman hoped?"

Matilda looked at Mary, waiting for her explanation.

"You like him, I can see it. It's true love. Moreover, I don't intend to break you up. However... I'm sorry, but I don't intend to back down from the task. Otherwise, I will lose everything I finally got. "Mary said calmly what she was thinking about, "So, in order to prevent us all from falling into the most uncomfortable situation, I think we can reach some kind of compromise... Of course, if you don't want to, you can't. relation,"

Mary sighed again, "I admit that your weight in his heart is much heavier now - but, Matilda, don't forget that he is very busy and can't see you for long, but I can get along with him day and night... If I really want to try, it’s not impossible, at least you shouldn’t take that risk?”

Mary's words were like a sharp sword, piercing Matilda where she felt most uncomfortable.

Although she was angry at first, after knowing all the truth, she didn't want to leave Ciel.

After hesitating for a long time, Matilda finally made up her mind, and then glanced at the other party calmly.

"Okay, what do you want? What should I do before you give up?"

At this moment, she no longer looked at the other person as a friend, but looked at the other person from the most calm and pragmatic perspective.

Mary waved her hand gently.

"Matilda, don't say that. I'm not blackmailing you. I just want us to find a path where we can each find our own path instead of killing each other."

After several years of getting along with each other, these ladies have already weighed up all their classmates, and then they have already distinguished who they can control or even manipulate, and who they should not provoke— - Wherever women gather, it is almost instinctive. It doesn't take them much time to quickly understand the circle they belong to and their status in the circle - that's why everyone was divided into two major factions and several factions at that time. The circle of subordinates hated each other and argued with each other for several years.

Because of this, she knew the consequences of being hated by Matilda for the rest of her life.

"To each his own?"

"Yes, to each his own." Mary quickly said what she had thought deeply about, lest Matilda leave first. "I have no intention of letting you leave Charles. Rather, it is because I don't want to see you leave." Because I can’t bear to see you sad.”

Although she knew that her words were not very sincere, Matilda still felt relieved.

"Then, you can naturally continue to interact with each other. I have no interest in informing, but I ask you to be more secretive in your interactions. Make sure not to let the old gentleman think that I am incompetent, otherwise I will be doomed." Mary said as she spoke. , suddenly seemed to be teasing. Glancing at Matilda with a slight smile, "Of course. It depends on your efforts. Control Charles and tell him not to talk nonsense. Tell him to pretend to have forgotten you in front of his grandfather. "

Then, she frowned slightly, "Really, no matter what, it would be too inappropriate to contradict my grandfather in front of you because of you..."

This ridicule made Matilda slightly embarrassed, but she felt an inexplicable joy in her heart, and she quickly suppressed it. "What about you? What do you want?"

"I have got what I want, even though I have to pay a lot." Mary smiled bitterly. Obviously her mood was not as relaxed as she said, "He will never abandon me again. He has always been very kind to his own people. I am obedient and diligent, and besides, I 'love him'. How could he?" Are you willing to let it go?"

Then, she glanced at Matilda again with a look that was both challenging and teasing.

"But you have to say it beforehand. If he falls in love with me in the future, I won't be responsible, right?"

"Are you serious?" Matilda asked.

"Maybe?" Mary replied with a smile. "Who can say clearly what will happen in the future?"

That's right, who can control what happens in the future? At least now there is hope for everything to be restored.

After staring for a long time, he made sure that the other party was not lying. Matilda nodded slightly.

"Okay, Mary, thank you. I owe you a favor. I will find a way to pay it back to you in the future."

"No need for favors," Mary waved her hand. "Everyone gets what they need."

Just like that, after reaching a preliminary tacit understanding. The two fell into silence again.

"Speaking of which," it was not until a long time later that Mary asked Matilda another question with great interest, "What are you planning to do? Are you going to carefully maintain this fragile relationship like this? Don't forget, He is getting married and has no intention of changing his mind."

"Who can say clearly about the future?" Matilda replied slightly bitterly. "We just have to find a way to live well now."

"Don't you see that you are such a person who knows how to enjoy yourself in time?" Mary was a little surprised, "I thought you would have more positive thoughts?"

"What else can we do? For us, as long as we can have a happy time, aren't we already satisfied? I just want to enjoy this time quietly." Matilda smiled bitterly He shook his head, "You may not believe it. I don't want to hurt Miss Treville. Maybe you think this is hypocrisy, but that's what I really think."

"But the other Miss Treville is on better terms with us, isn't she?" asked Mary. "Can you bear to see her sad again? Then how are you going to face her? Taking away the person she loves most while laughing and saying we are good friends? Don't you feel guilty?"

"..." Matilda was silent for a moment. "But what can we do? Fate is playing tricks on us. Who can do anything?"

"Why is there no way? Isn't it just a wish? She doesn't want to get married in public." Mary frowned, "As long as we help her realize her wish, she will be grateful to us and forgive us for the mistakes we made impulsively. We didn't feel sorry for her then, right? As long as everything was done in secret, no one made any mistakes..."

Although these words were spoken in a calm tone, Matilda was dumbfounded.

"You mean..."

"Yes, I can't stand it anymore when I see her looking sad and haggard." Mary replied in a hissing voice, "She saved me, I must help her, no matter how bad things happen, I am willing to bear it with her. "

"You're crazy! Absolutely not!"

Matilda immediately refused, a feeling of disgust came to her heart, and she didn't want to talk to him anymore.

"Quickly give up this idea! This is going to be punished by God, and I will never help!"

Then, she walked out of the reception room without looking back.

Mary watched her leaving figure quietly, silently.

Then she slowly stood up again.

What prompted her to make this decision was not only the desire to repay Fran's original help, but also a small part of it came from the revengeful psychology of women that is so stubborn that it penetrates deep into the bone marrow.

Old man, you think you can manipulate me at will, and I will make you make a big fool of yourself. How distressed will you be when you see it?
