He put down the black tea he had just drunk, closed the book on his lap, and called Janet's name.

"Daddy, what can I do for you?"

Janet, who is still sharing the interesting things in the castle with Mabel, quickly turns to see the count.

"After a while, you take Miss Mabel to the room to have a rest. Later, some guests will come. It's not good if you bump into it..."

The voice of the Lord's aria is slightly magnetic, which makes people feel like they are listening to an opera.

"OK, Daddy..."

After answering the count, Janet was stunned for a moment. She seemed not very happy. After a while, she turned to talk to Mabel and Julie.

When the count had finished his orders, he picked up the book on the table and prepared to read it. However, the voices of a few women playing in a low voice not far away obviously disturbed her.

The count looked at it for a while, and the voices of several ladies kept flowing in his ears. Finally, he had no choice but to put down the book in his hand and look at the playful ladies.

I don't know what they're talking about, laughing so happily.

However, since the arrival of Miss Mabel, Janet seems to be much more lively than before. The most obvious thing is that she did not deliberately sit with her before, but now she is with him when she has the chance, which is called "connecting father daughter relationship".

What's so special about Miss Mabel that Janet loves her so much and makes such a big difference?

The count was a little curious. He looked at her in a way that would not easily attract her attention.

She is really beautiful.

The snow-white skin is as gorgeous as silk, and the slender neck is as delicate as a swan.

Eyes are endless black, not belong to the most beautiful color of the sky, in the reflection of the sun is shining bright.

Her eyes are dark and bright. When she smiles, her eyes are full of light.

But her spirit of wind, even when she smiles like a flower on a branch, is as pure as a deep pool, very light, but with a soft luster, which makes people unconsciously feel good about her.

The cheek line is smooth. It is the standard beauty face in the history of Z country. It has three courtyards and five eyes.

Dark hair has a natural undulation and radian, scattered down to the waist, people can imagine the touch of fingertips caressing those hairs.

A retro Greek mop dress, can not cover the graceful posture.

The beautiful facial features are more and more soft and incomparable under the golden sun shining in the window, with the taste of holiness and holiness.

Looking at it like this, she really has the capital that people can't help liking.

The count's slender fingers scratched the gray trousers twice, as if thinking about something.

At this time, Mapel, who had just talked to Janet, suddenly turned his head strangely, and his dark, unlit eyes looked in the direction of the count.

Oh, it's found.

It's a very sensitive perception.

Don't open your eyes. Yu Guang seems to be at a loss when he sees her. Maybe he doesn't understand why the sight suddenly disappeared.

Then she turned around and joined Janet's new topic.

Left the count looking at the cup half drunk black tea, brown eyes deep, do not know what to think.

Clearly, when her feet just fell to the ground, Mapel felt that the whole castle was quiet and gloomy, almost silent.

With the help of Janet and Julie, Mabel walked slowly and carefully, listening to the two people talking about the scenery.

For example, Janet told her about the origin of the castle.

Fortifications and civil engineering have been used since the stone age.

Before the X century, there was no real castle in Europe. However, due to the resistance to the invasion of the Vikings and the formation of scattered feudal political forces, thousands of castles were spread all over Europe from the X century to the XX century.

For another example, Julie told her that because the castle is very old and well preserved, it has always been under repair. So there were also the ancient city gates at that time. They had to go through three bridges. Under the bridges were tributaries of two rivers. In some places, the walls of the city wall showed solid foundations, and now they are all covered with houses. The status of the tower is higher than that of the castle, The city is surrounded by these two fortresses, so to be the master of yisutun, the tower and the castle must be occupied together. If you take the castle, you can't control the tower

Fortunately, the plane stopped in the three bridges, otherwise I'm afraid I don't know how many more roads to take.

A group of people through the far gate full of vines to the castle.

As Julie reminds her to step up the stairs step by step, Mabel hears Janet tell her that there are many paintings hanging in the corridor, all portraits of Durand's family leaders of every generation. This is a Durand tradition.

When they walked into the innermost part of the castle, everything seemed to recover from the silence.

The gloomy feeling that had given Mabel before disappeared completely.

She could hear the sound of people walking all the time, disorderly but fast, and then she stopped, and then she heard a neat welcome: "welcome the count and miss Janet back..."

Mabel

Once again feel the ancient noble heritage.

Janet has gone to make arrangements. The count is going to have a rest to receive the guests who will come later.

In order not to appear so idle, she agreed to let Julie walk around the castle with her and know the way.

In fact, it's just for Julie to recognize. She can't see any of them. She can't remember them completely by going through these two steps.

The complicated crystal lighting gives off cold light. The high walls on all sides cast dark shadows on the soft carpet. Stepping on the thick red carpet, we walk through the spacious but cold corridor. The iron candlesticks burning on the walls on both sides reflect the pale gold wallpaper with incomparable brilliance.

There are gorgeous candlesticks, flickering candlelight, warm fireplace, silvery tableware.

And the considerable number of servants.

It was only at this time that Mabel learned from Julie that the Durand family started as a clothing business at the beginning, and then gradually expanded and developed. After the war, and the accumulation of generations, it became what it is today.

And the count, whose real name is Alex Durand, is a real count, not a nickname that Mapel thought at first
