In the past, Mabel was able to ask Julie to get a coat to keep warm. But Mabel felt that she had been delayed for too long, and now it was hard to delay, so she just pretended to be nothing.

But she just walked a few steps, a still with body temperature clothes gently put on his body.

All of a sudden, Mapel couldn't help but be stunned. She subconsciously grasped the clothes hanging from her shoulders

Breath, can smell the faint fragrance of Cologne.

It's like the Earl uses it.

She raised her face and looked in one direction unconsciously. She was at a loss in her eyes

"It's impossible for a gentleman to look at a weak lady and not help her..."

After a pause, he probably felt that what he said might be too hard, and added: "in the words of your country Z, it's a little help."

The countess's calm manner made Mabel a little confused. She bit her lip. "Thank you, count."

This kind of time, probably in addition to thanks, there is no way to say anything else.

After that, it's very quiet.

But the silence was only maintained before they got off the bus.

The car stopped in less than half an hour.

Because the windows are bulletproof, Mapel can't hear anything.

But the moment the door opened, she heard the noise.

"Miss Mabel..."

Julie's voice came from outside the car, and her hand was on her.

Such a long time together has been enough for Mabel and Julie to have some tacit understanding. Naturally, she means to help her.

Mapel was a little hesitant. She didn't even want to get out of the car. She began to regret that I didn't firmly refuse Janet's offer before.

But no one gave her another chance to shrink back. Janet didn't know when she came over and seemed to be beside Julie. "What's the matter with you, Mabel? Why don't you get out of the car?"

Can you say you want to go back at this time?

Mabel clenched her lips, her hands slightly clenched, a little tangled.

I'm afraid Janet doesn't know how angry she would be if she really told me about those plans.

How unhappy the count would be.

At last Mabel shook her head slightly. "Nothing?"

Then he grabbed Julie's hand on his hand, and with her careful and careful help and reminder, he slowly walked out of the car.

At that moment, Mapel felt the heat of the atmosphere outside, and many people's eyes fell on her.

With exploration, surprise, or jealousy

There are so many emotions that Mapel can't tell from each other.

Ever since she woke up, she had been protected by Janet, and she had never been to any party or met many strangers outside.

Her life was limited to the castle of the Durand family.

Even if the count was occasionally visited, she remained quiet in the room until the count's guests left.

So it's really the first time in Mapel's memory to have such a lively party.

But she was only a little hesitant, and did not know why she felt a little unhappy in her heart.

But not afraid, timid.

This increasingly makes Mapel feel that his previous guess should be right.

She should have attended these similar banquets, but maybe she didn't like them, just had to attend them for some reason.

Janet didn't know that Mapel had thought so much just within a minute of getting off the bus. She glanced at the brightly lit banquet not far away, and then watched the solemn Countess look over with warning eyes,.

She is sweet and crooked, and then back to hands, a obedient and sensible look, really like a little angel, if you ignore the dark Lolita style dress she is wearing tonight.

Although we know that Janet has always been a man of sense, the count knows that her sense of sense, in the face of Mapel, will always suddenly appear a bit ignorant.

Just like this time, although I don't think it's shameful to have a blind so-called relative, it's also unreliable to let a woman who can't see be his countess's dancing partner.

If someone else had proposed such a thing, the count would have driven him away and never hired him.

But the one who put forward this kind of infeasible plan was his little daughter, who was the heir of the Durand family.

What's more, since Janet came to her side, she never seemed to ask him anything. At last, knowing how unreasonable the request was, the count acquiesced that she borrowed his name and asked Mabel to accompany her to this banquet.

So the count's deep gray eyes fixed on Janet. Seeing that she was still very clever, he finally looked away from her. He glanced at her, who didn't know anything, and then calmly said, "don't do anything stupid."

Janet smiles. Suddenly, she takes a small step on her hind leg. Then she opens her wide, wrinkled skirt with her two hands, bends down slightly and gives a lady's salute. "OK, daddy."

The count's eyebrows and eyes moved for a moment, as if he wanted to say something else. At last, without saying a word, he turned and left with the Deacon beside him.

From the beginning to the end, he did not mention, also did not mention, Mapel this was originally as his partner.

It seems to have been completely forgotten.

Mapel did not mention it, and others seemed to forget it.

"Your Excellency..."

Mapel murmured. She was aware of her previous doubts. Maybe this is the answer.

She finally understood why Janet had told her that the count knew she was coming to the ball, and that Janet had asked his permission.

Although at the beginning, I felt that with the character of the count, even if it was not a formal banquet, his strict character was unlikely to bring her to the dance with a blind person who wanted to be taken care of and watched.

So she did not understand how the count could agree to let a man of her body come to the banquet as his partner, even though she was nominally a relative of the Durand family, but both sides knew the truth of the relationship.

But now, she understands.
