Chapter 712 A promise(1/2)
After Gervais held Adela.
Because Adela's sobs behind her were not concealed, she had already attracted the attention of the guards in the manor.
However, when the guards saw the presence of Gervais and the scene of the two embracing each other, they all retreated quietly and pretended that they had not seen the two at all.
Even Waddington could only shake his head and leave after seeing this.
In this way, the two stood motionless hugging each other by the lake for five or six minutes.
Five or six minutes later, Adela finally stopped crying, but still buried her head in Gervais's arms, holding Gervais unwilling to let go.
"Adela! I'm sorry!"
Feeling Adela hugging him tightly, Gervais gently stroked her back.
Although the silky touch of the hollow part on the back is very enjoyable, Gervais is not in the mood at the moment.
What he wants now is to soothe the heart of the girl in his arms as soon as possible, otherwise he will leave tomorrow and he will not be able to feel at ease by then.
"I don't want you to be sorry for me! Gervais!"
Adela's reaction to Gervais's apology was a little fierce, and she replied with a hoarse voice.
"Okay! Okay! I won't tell!"
"Adela, although I have to go to the Sacred Forest tomorrow, I will still come back to see you in the future!"
Gervais knew in his heart that Adela thought he was saying goodbye to her, so she didn't want to hear any sorry words, and immediately changed her words of comfort.
Through these days of contact, Gervais has actually been conquered by Adela, the innocent and lovely young lady.
He admitted that he was not a gentleman or a good man.
If he had revealed the existence of Alice when he saw that Adela had feelings for him, maybe Adela would not have reached such a point and fallen deeper and deeper into the situation.
But Gervais was not like this at that time. This is what caused everything today. Maybe this is the selfish psychology of men!
Of course, one thing is certain. At that time, Gervais did not expect that things would develop so fast.
"Gervis! I can't bear to leave you!"
There was a hint of despair in Adela's words, which was what mattered most to her.
Gervais has a wife and is about to leave now. She knows that once they are separated, the hope of seeing Gervais again will be slim. Even if they do see her in the future, as time goes by, perhaps Gervais has put her
Emotions fade away.
"Adela, listen to me!"
Gervais felt extremely pity in his heart, knowing that his departure might be like the end of the world for Adela.
I thought of Adela looking around all day long to find me.
Thinking of Adela's meticulous care during the days when he was injured, Gervais finally couldn't help it anymore.
He decided to give this girl a promise!
He immediately said to Adela solemnly.
"Adela! I promise you that after Stormwind City is completed, I will definitely come to find you!"
"When the time comes, if you are willing, I will take you away! Okay?"
Stormwind City had not been built, and Gervase and his ministers were like rootless duckweeds, with no foundation in this holy continent.
At that time, he couldn't even take care of himself, so Gervais was naturally reluctant to let Adela suffer with him.
And even if he really wants to take Adela away now, Duke Edward probably won't.
Therefore, the best choice is for Adela to stay in the City of Hope and complete her studies.
When I can provide her with enough security and a stable life, I will pick up Adela.
"Really?"
Gervais's tone was solemn, and Adela obviously knew the meaning of the words "take you away".
After hearing this, she paused and finally raised her head to look at Gervais, her eyes full of hope.
"Yes, Adela! As long as you are willing, I will definitely take you away! We will never be separated for the rest of our lives!"
Gervais affirmed again.
"Um!"
At this moment, Adela finally seemed to have returned to heaven from hell, and the trace of despair in her eyes had disappeared.
She finally got a satisfactory answer. Although she had to wait for a long time, she was not afraid of all this because she had a promise, which was her hope.
Her fierce knights never let her down!
…
Under the bright moonlight, the two looked at each other. Adela was wearing a snow-white dress and nestled in front of Gervais.
Slowly, Adela raised her head and closed her eyes, as if waiting for something.
When Gervais saw this scene, he didn't hesitate at all, lowered his head and kissed her.
"well!"
Duke Edward stood hundreds of meters away, looking at Adela and Gervais, with a somewhat mottled face full of complex expressions. He wanted to go over and say something, but in the end he could only sigh.
"Come on, let's go back to the banquet hall, and let's go up and dance too!"
Now that he had made a promise, Gervais fortunately let go and naturally tried his best to take care of Adela's emotions tonight.
"Gervis, will Sister Alice be angry? Otherwise, it's better not to give up!"
Adela, whose cheeks were burning and feeling a little suffocated, waited for three or four seconds before finally speaking.
Adela was already very satisfied to get Gervais's promise.
Returning to the banquet hall, she would never dare to dance with Gervais under Alice's watchful eyes!
"It's okay, let's go up and dance together. Alice won't be angry!"
Before coming, Alice specifically asked Gervais to comfort Adela, so Gervais was confident.
Of course, Gervais did not dare to explain the promise he made to Adela to Alice for the time being. He could only wait until he returned to the sacred forest to start work slowly.
"Um!"
After all, Adela couldn't resist the temptation to dance with Gervais, and immediately nodded.
Afterwards, Adela took out a square towel from her storage space, wiped the tears on her face, and then followed Gervais toward the small building.
"Sister Adela!"
Seeing Gervais and Adela come in, Alice greeted Adela with pity!
"Sister Alice!"
Adela was still a little guilty, but when she saw the softness in Alice's eyes, she immediately felt relieved and responded obediently.
"Alice, I invite Adela to dance now!"
After the two greeted each other, Gervais quickly interrupted.
"Well, go ahead! Sister Adela is so beautiful tonight, so she can't take advantage of others!"
Seeing Adela's red eyes at this time, Alice naturally knew Adela's previous mood.
Hearing Gervais's words, he didn't object at all.
Adela was a little embarrassed by Alice's teasing words, and immediately lowered her head and did not dare to speak, and then was pulled to the dance floor by Gervais.
Next, Gervais and Adela danced slowly to the melodious music. Their appearance was just like Gervais and Alice's appearance before, and they immediately became the focus of the scene.
Of course, most of the young people in the scene looked at Gervais with extremely sour eyes. This god of murder was simply inhuman, and he was actually dancing with two such beautiful beauties at the same time.
Even if they were half as capable as the God of Killing, they would still wake up laughing from their dreams.
…
Early the next morning, outside the City of Hope.
The elf envoy team of more than 500 people is ready to go. Gervais and Alice are saying goodbye to Edward and Adela!
"Gervis! The Orc envoy returned yesterday, and this time you have offended Dossalon to death! Be careful when you go back! The Sacred Forest is too far away from the Sacred Alliance, so we will definitely not be able to provide you with support.
.”
Edward solemnly confessed to Gervais on this occasion of separation!
"Thank you, Duke Edward. Don't worry! I will definitely pay attention to it!"
Gervais expressed his gratitude to Edward very respectfully.
"Well! Let Waddington take you to the City of Hope later!"
After saying that, Edward walked aside, obviously giving Gervais and Adela space to talk!
"Gervis, you must be careful!"
