When Bellatrix said this, she couldn't help but feel a little complacent.
Hmph, before Langdon said she couldn't do anything, it turned out that he wanted to ask her for help now!
This is the so-called gold that always shines. Although she doesn't know anything about government affairs, it doesn't affect her surpassing Langdon and Shalltear in other places!
Thinking of Shalltear, Bellatris still couldn't help burning with an unknown fire in her heart, and even couldn't help but feel a killing intent surge towards Langdon.
But she was good at analyzing other people's analysis, and she couldn't do it when it was her turn. She couldn't figure out why she thought Shalltear would take Langdon's anger at the same time, because she had a headache thinking about it. There are so many people in this world who are not pleasing to the eye.
Langdon is interesting, but... so be it!It's quite normal for her to be dissatisfied with Langdon. Since she first met Langdon, hasn't she always disliked Langdon? !It was just a little emotional relief before, but now it's just returning to its original state!
Just Landon...
"Princess."
Langdon's voice interrupted Bellatrix's distraction.
She looked up and saw Langdon looking at her with unprecedented sincerity and concentration, blue eyes prettier than jewels reflecting her figure.
Bellatrix, who was always treated with a polite smirk, perfunctory and indifference by Langdon, was in a daze for a moment.
Um?Is this directed at her?Shalltear won't get this kind of treatment, will she?
"Princess, it's because I have blind eyes. I didn't realize that you are so powerful before. It's a pity that this talent was buried. Would you help me stabilize Helena so that she doesn't cause trouble for me?"
A sneer appeared on the corner of Bellatrix's mouth.
Hehe, I only know to ask her when I can't figure it out, she won't be so easy——
Langdon trembled: "This is the request of my life!!!"
Bellatrix: "...Huh?"
This kind of stalk has never been popular in this world. Requests that mention "lifetime" are usually related to marriage. It can be regarded as a tactful confession similar to "the moonlight is so beautiful tonight" in the previous life.
Langdon danced in ecstasy for finally finding a "professional", and couldn't care less about anything else for a while, and didn't even realize what he said, but Bellatrix was a little panicked.
"Wait, wait a minute..."
She lacks common sense a bit, but she still understands this!Are you talking about Helena?Why has it suddenly become the request of a lifetime? !Did she skip some important plot in the middle? !
What the hell did Langdon mean? !
She won't be fooled!She knew very well that Langdon didn't have that kind of affection for her at all!Saying such things now is simply playing tricks on her!
Bellatrix wanted to question Langdon, but she stammered inexplicably: "You, what are you talking about..."
Langdon was also desperate, and planned to be more direct. After all, for someone like Bellatrix, being euphemistic is useless and a waste of time.
Originally, she thought that Bellatrix might gain some ground because of this, and asked him some requirements in an arrogant manner, and she was ready to bargain, but she didn't expect Bellatrix's reaction to be so strange.
But when negotiating, you can't leave time for the enemy to think rationally, and sometimes you don't need to be too sober!Just follow your instincts and attack!
Bellatrix could handle Helena!Compared to the fact that he will be tortured by Helena in the future, what's the matter with softening his attitude towards the princess now!A man can bend and stretch!The story has been told, so I am afraid that it will be softened!
So Langdon didn't think deeply about the reason for Bellatrix's strange attitude, and continued to sincerely ask along with what he said just now.
"I said before that you can't do anything. I'm too arrogant. You are actually the rarest kind of talent. What is the most difficult thing between people? It's understanding. I didn't expect you to be able to do this. With such a high talent, please help me, I trust you the most now!"
Bellatrix: "...???"
She felt as if she was in a dream, as if she had fallen into some hallucination.
Is this Langdon?
That Langdon who always looks cold...will have such a side?
Enthusiasm, anticipation, anxiety... She could indeed feel these emotions from the other party, just like the emotions of those around her who wanted to hook her up and marry her at her birthday party.
At that time, Bellatris looked down on those people at all, and sneered at these rather representative emotions.
But for some reason, she now did not object to Langdon showing such affection for her.
Ever since she knew Langdon, Langdon always liked to hide and avoid. She had never felt such a direct and passionate emotion in Langdon.
But...Langdon seemed to be doing it naturally.
Could it be that Langdon, who was not hurt by those people before, was actually like this?
The Langdon she didn't know, the Langdon she didn't know, the Langdon in Flora, Helena and Bridget's memory, the Langdon smiling relaxedly in the oil painting of the castle...
... She seems to be a little bit closer.
Bellatrix had such a premonition.
If he refuses now, there will be no chance to see Langdon like this again, right?
"Princess?" Langdon looked at her urgently.
"... Forget it, for the sake of you telling me so many stories, let me help you with this." Bellatris said with a straight face, "But if she really wants to see you, I will It’s impossible to stop it all the time, you have to be mentally prepared.”
Langdon breathed a sigh of relief: "That's enough, until she's cured, that's all I can do..."
Bellatrix was puzzled: "Can this be cured?"
"The mage with the dark attribute, or the stimulation therapy, is simply to make her see the reality... But the stimulation therapy failed last time, and it seems to have deteriorated." Langdon sighed.
Bellatrix silently opened her fan.
...What, so can stimulation therapy be used?
[ps: Faster and faster]
64. Do you want to try stimulation therapy (3k)
Unexpectedly, Bellatrix agreed to help take care of Helena so smoothly. Even though he knew that this person was unreliable, Langdon couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Anyway, no matter how bad it is, it won't be worse than before.
Since he is someone who can help, of course he can no longer use his previous attitude. Langdon kindly agreed that he would continue to tell stories to Bellatrix when he returned to the imperial capital, and he would remove all the people who had been stuck on the spot on the spot. The story was told in one breath, and then Bellatrix was sent away.
When he was alone in the study, Langdon leaned back in his chair and let out a long sigh of relief.
...No, now is not the time to relax.
Although Bellatrix was unwilling to give him a detailed analysis, judging from Flora's previous report, he seemed to have a lot of questions that he needed to consult the housekeeper.
It just so happens that he has nothing else to do after writing the letter... Let's just ask.
Langdon had the butler called.
The steward arrived soon and saluted him respectfully: "Duke, what are your orders?"
Langdon exchanged a few simple greetings, confirmed that the housekeeper had been working in the family for many years when his parents got married, and then got to the point: "I want to ask about my mother."
The butler's smile remained unchanged: "Which matter?"
Langdon asked directly, "Has she ever needed a tranquilizer?"
If Langdon's father was still alive, the butler might not be particularly frank, but now that Langdon is the duke, the butler can only answer: "The old duke once had someone watch the old lady take medicine."
"...Why? What kind of condition does she need to take medicine?"
"I don't know very well, but the decorations in the old lady's room are often broken and need to be replaced." The butler said tactfully, "For more details, you may ask Mr. Carter who is still in the imperial capital."
The butler in front of Langdon is a professional butler who has served the Duchy of Stuart for generations. He mainly stays with the old Duke, and the old lady can also take care of it, but it is more of a coordinating aspect, and I don’t know about it. thin.
And Mr. Carter, the old housekeeper who followed Langdon's mother from her natal family to the Principality of Stuart, did not participate in the affairs of the Principality. After the death of Langdon's mother, he was mainly responsible for taking care of Langdon, so in Langdon After going to school in the imperial capital, he also followed Langdon to the imperial capital.
This time, because of Langdon's order, the old housekeeper stayed in the imperial capital to look after Helena who was supposed to rest, so he didn't come back.
Langdon didn't want to wait until he returned to the imperial capital, so he wanted to ask the man in front of him what he knew!
He didn't give up: "Do you know anything else?"
The housekeeper hesitated for a moment: "There are a lot of things to say, I am afraid that some of them will affect the great image of your parents in your mind..."
"Oh, you don't have to worry about that, I don't have any impression of them." Langdon made an unfilial voice, "I think you should also know that, in fact, they don't care much about me. Is this common among nobles? I'm not You are a child, don’t worry about hurting me by telling the truth.”
The butler smiled awkwardly but politely.
...Although everyone knows what's going on, it's embarrassing to say it directly!
But now that Langdon's words have come to this point, the housekeeper has less worries: "Actually... the old lady didn't need to take medicine when she first got married, probably after you were born, her physical condition and Her mental state is not as good as before, so the old Duke started to let her take medicine, but I really don't know more about the specifics."
Langdon: "...?"
What is this, postpartum depression?He has only seen this kind of disease on the social news, what about jumping off a building with a child in his arms... Shouldn't it happen?He had the impression that his mother was okay with him...
"However, Mr. Carter once mentioned that before the old lady got married, she actually took tranquilizers for a while..."
Oh, so it's not postpartum depression anymore, it's an old problem.
As soon as Langdon thought about it, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
...It's not going anywhere! ! !
I heard that mental illness is hereditary!If his mother is really mentally ill, will there be problems with his body? !
But his biological one hasn't fallen ill yet, so how come Helena, an adopted one, fell ill...
The more Langdon thought about it, the more he didn't understand. He could only guess that maybe Helena had more contact with his mother than he did, so she was a little affected.
...It's still outrageous. To be so easily affected, the doctors and nurses in the mental hospital are all high-risk jobs. It's impossible for good-looking people to become so sick so easily.
That is Helena herself has a big problem.
So Langdon asked the butler a few more questions about Helena.
It's amazing, but the housekeeper has always had a good impression of Helena: "...Yes, the old duke is handed over to Miss Helena...Yes...Huh? No, Miss Helena's mental state is very stable .”
So he really got sick after going to the imperial capital?
He said that he was going to school and didn't need to be accompanied. Helena still didn't believe it and insisted on going to the imperial capital. What happened?
Langdon couldn't help sighing.
Why bother!Can't you just stay in the principality? !It is also convenient for her to work!Why do you have to follow him? How much do you distrust him?
Bellatrix happened to be asking Helena this question.
After she left Langdon's side, she went straight to Helena.
Anyway, with Langdon's permission, Bellatrix's action was quite justifiable.
It just so happened that Helena had been asking the maid to go out. The maid didn't dare to disobey Langdon's orders, so she could only follow Helena's car. Latris let in.
"Your Royal Highness." Helena didn't expect Bellatrix to come, so she was taken aback for a moment before greeting.
Bellatrix said with a smile: "The Duke is afraid that you will be bored resting in the room, so let me talk to you."
Helena said calmly: "This is too much trouble for Your Highness the Princess."
Bellatrix could sense Helena's suspicion, but she didn't mind: "It's okay, I'm bored here too, it's good that Miss Helena is willing to chat with me."
"But I think I probably need to work for Langdon more..."
"The Duke thinks that you should rest for at least three days." Bellatrix said, "But he said that if you recover well, he will probably trouble you to continue handling those cases that need to be judged starting tomorrow."
This wasn't Bellatrix's nonsense, it was one of the ways Langdon told her to hold Helena.
Anyway, with Helena's ability, even if she is mentally unstable, there won't be any major problems in this kind of work, and Langdon doesn't mind handing over part of the work to Helena to stabilize her mood.
Although he still hasn't fully figured out what's going on with Helena, Langdon feels that he at least has a rough grasp of the fact that Helena likes to work...
Although Bellatris, who heard him say that, had to cover her expression with a fan in order not to laugh out loud.
What Helena needs is not work at all!
What she wanted was to be "needed by Langdon"!The core is Langdon!
I don't know what Helena did to give Langdon such a strange misunderstanding...
However, Helena's expression softened instantly after hearing Bellatrix's message: "Is that so? Indeed, after a long journey, it's better to take a rest before working..."
She didn't seem to intend to continue protesting that she had to rest.
Bellatrix: "..."
You deserved Langdon for thinking you were a workaholic.
Therefore, Bellatris took advantage of the situation and asked: "Since you value work so much, it is actually more convenient to stay in the Principality all the time, so why do you insist on following the Duke to the imperial capital? In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't follow, there are so many people Take care of the Duke."
Bellatrix knew that the answer must have something to do with Langdon, but she asked this mainly because she wanted to hear Helena's own answer.
