Chapter 916 Diana McDowell
The feeling that Ryan and Alisa both appeared in their hearts was not just casually speaking. They really felt like they had seen this elegant and elegant beauty somewhere.
Her long, bright silver hair is neatly maintained. Although there are inevitably some crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, her appearance is well maintained and she looks at her early 30s at most.
From time to time, a trace of sorrow flashed in her eyes, but the temperament naturally exuded by her body seemed elegant and peaceful, and she knew that she had received a good education at a glance.
When the young lady at the counter reported the situation to Manager Diana, Ryan and Alisa looked at each other. Ryan used the witch's secret technique to block the two's voices and communicated in a low voice.
"Alisha, don't you think she looks familiar?"
"I want to ask you this question, shouldn't it..."
"Well, it's very likely that I heard that her mother returned to her hometown in the empire due to a breakdown in her marriage in her early years. Let's confirm it later."
After listening to the description of the young lady at the counter, store manager Diana smiled and nodded, "I understand, let's go down first to see what weapons these customers want to maintain."
Diana's walking posture is also very particular, and the distance she takes each step seems to have been carefully calculated.
Ryan and Alisha, who received aristocratic education since childhood, knew very well that it would be difficult to develop such a gait without years of training.
"this……"
When Manager Diana saw the guide mecha at the door, she showed a clear expression of surprise on her face.
"Three, although I have lived in seclusion for a long time, I can probably still see that this is a single-soldier mecha weapon for auxiliary combat, right?"
Alisa nodded calmly and said, "That's right, this is the guide mecha independently developed by my two friends, look..."
"Yeah~"
Diana frowned and thought for a while with her chin on her hands.
"I can rent the equipment to you, but you can't dismantle and maintain it here. It may be very troublesome if the patrolled soldiers see it."
Alisa made a quick call and agreed, "No problem, we will move to the unmanned land by Lake Gala for maintenance. Thank you, Manager Diana, for your help."
"where."
Diana shook her head gently, "Seeing you young people, it always reminds me of your daughters of the same age as you. Now she should also work hard in her own field."
Speaking of her daughter, Diana's face showed a trace of confusion, and she looked at the east side of Mir Santi with a blank look, as if her thoughts had completely flown to the place where her daughter was.
"Um……"
Ryan scratched his head at the prompt of Alisa's waist poking, and asked tentatively, "Ms. Diana, is your last name McDowell?"
“Huh?”
Diana's face showed a look of surprise, and she reached out to cover her slightly grown mouth and nodded, "Yes, my name is Diana McDowell, how did you know this guest?"
‘It turns out to be so…’
Ryan winked at Alisa and signaled that she would handle this kind of social interaction between women.
Alisa smiled and saluted Diana with a skirt. "Hello Aunt Diana, I am Miss Ally McDowell's friend. My name is Alisa Ryanfolt."
"My name should have been mentioned in my correspondence with Miss Ellie."
That's right, correspondence.
Although Closebell and Ereponia had already connected wired and wireless communications, Ms. Diana was afraid to contact her daughter directly through voice because of her guilt towards Ellie, and still used relatively primitive letters to communicate.
She is Ellie's mother who fled back to her hometown in the Empire due to her marriage breakdown. Ryan always thought she lived in the ancestral land of the McDowell family, but she didn't expect to open a grocery store in Millsanti.
It has also been mentioned before that Ellie's father was a promising young man who immigrated to Closebell from the Republic.
After falling in love with Diana, he married into the McDowell family, hoping to make some achievements to change the tragic fact that the autonomous state was manipulated by two major powers.
But... my personal power did not play any role in the panic, and the then mayor Henry McDowell did not dare to help him rashly.
In the end, the reform initiated by Ellie's father failed, and he became a common laughing stock for the politicians of the Republic and the imperialists. Unable to withstand the blow, he left his wife and daughter and fled back to the Republic.
Ellie's mother Diana could not accept this sudden change, leaving the young Ellie to take care of her father Henry, and hurriedly fled back to the McDowell family's hometown in Eleponia.
Ellie's childhood was spent when her parents divorced and each hid in her arms. The little Ellie grew up completely under the care of her grandfather Henry.
Diana immediately showed a sudden look when she heard Alisa's words.
"Ryan Folt? It turns out you are Miss Alisa who Ellie mentioned."
Then she looked at Ryan, who was holding his arm by Alisa in surprise, "Then is this..."
The engagement between the Ryan Folt family and the Kane family has long been spread throughout the empire. Since Alisa's identity has been confirmed, Diana will naturally suspect Ryan who appeared in an intimate manner with her.
"Ahem ~ That's right, it's him."
Alisa coughed lightly and shook Diana, and the other party immediately kept silent. After all, the news has been announced to the public that Mr. Kane is resting at home due to illness, and former Mr. Kane Croval is temporarily regent.
With the relationship between Ally, Diana became much more enthusiastic about the three of them. Not only did she agree to lend the equipment for free, she also followed Ryan and the other two to the quiet lake to chat together.
While Alisa is fully focused on maintaining the guide mecha, Ryan answers Diana's questions about her daughter's recent situation.
This ostrich parent has not seen Ellie for more than ten years. Although she usually hides her daughter because she is shameless, her concern and guilt for Ellie have been tortured.
"Elie always thought that I lived in Zeltri, and the letters I had been transferred over the years were delivered to me and Ellie and I."
Diana said with a shameful look on her face, "Actually, I have moved out of the beach long ago. In order not torture myself to the point of being tortured by guilt and loneliness, I found something for myself. Diana's grocery store was opened for this."
Zeltry is one of the important port towns on the southern coast of Lamar State. It is located in the corps of Count Legion and is one of the most important sources of wealth for Count Legion.
It's quite interesting. Although the McDowell family immigrated to the Empire's Crossbear, which was still under the imperial leadership, it was actually closely related to the Earl Legion's family.
The two families are blood relatives with far-reaching ties, which can be seen from their exact same beautiful silver hair.
Aurelia Leguien and Ellie McDowell are distant relatives of the same generation. Although the two have a big difference in temperament, some clues can still be seen between their eyebrows.
However, Diana did not think about climbing up to this relative. Although former Legionbo repeatedly stated that he would take good care of his relatives, Diana eventually left Zeltri and came to Mir Santi to live in seclusion.
Diana has been extremely regretful for so many years for all the time she impulsively left Ellie and left.
Ryan tentatively suggested, "Ms. Diana, why don't you... go back to Closebell to live. Speaker McDowell's physical condition is getting worse due to his age."
"Ally is really hard to study government affairs while taking care of her grandfather, and... you should also go see Elly's boyfriend, right?"
"Um?!"
When Diana, who had a look of guilt and grief before, suddenly raised her eyebrows.
