Verak's hair stood on end and his expression became a little unnatural.
"What's going on? Anyway, I don't think your choice of traveling is a good choice. It's just an escape for a while at most. You'll still have to face it when you come back." Colin didn't notice anything unusual about Verak and said to himself.
Have a view.
"I..." Verak's thoughts were confused.
Colin understood that Verak was feeling guilty and continued: "Why didn't you tell Mr. Carmine about you and Elizabeth? Or did Mr. Carmine already know about it but didn't agree? If you don't agree, it would be really difficult.
.”
"Do you know what has happened to us in the past few months..." Verak sat down slightly in despair, and forced himself to cheer up and speak.
"Now that I think about it, you two have indeed seen each other less and less in the past few months, so now Mr. Carmine doesn't want you and Elizabeth to be together, and you and Elizabeth happened to have a quarrel?" Colin's ability to associate
He is very strong and has already figured out the whole story on his own, "So you are still hesitant now? Don't know whether you should listen to Mr. Carmine or insist on being with Elizabeth?"
"...Hmm." Verak responded, following Colin's train of thought.
"I think you two should meet and have a good talk, and don't make decisions that you may regret for the rest of your life in a quarrel over some trivial matter." Colin seemed to have a lot of insight into relationships, "And I personally think that people who are arranged by others should
Life will not be happy. As your good brother, I will not be happy watching you live a life you don't like. I will always stand by your side and support all your decisions."
Verak was touched.
Although things were not what Colin thought, and Colin was unable to help at all in the situation Verak was facing, Verak was still moved by this sincere comfort and support that was no longer cynical.
He envied Chris, who had a wealthy family, a gentle and beautiful lover, and friends who never had to worry about being let down.
If he was really Chris, he would never choose to be involved with Equality - even if he was born poor, was always looked down upon, and suffered injustice, Equality would fight for him at all costs.
"Thank you, Colin." Although these words did not help him, Verak still felt powerful.
He knew that if the person sitting here today was not Colin but Nord, the always energetic boy would also support him and stand by his side.
This was already a blessing in misfortune, and it was also the motivation for him to grit his teeth and persevere.
By pretending to be Chris, he had already betrayed Colin's trust and the enthusiastic members of the Equality Congregation. Verak could not help but feel guilty, and did not want to waste all his efforts and betray Nord again.
"What are you talking about?" Colin felt that Verak was too external, "Okay, don't cry and look sad, think about it in your heart, I will help you make an appointment with Elizabeth today."
"What if I decide to be with Elizabeth, but my father doesn't agree?" Verak asked.
"I will talk to Mr. Carmine. If Mr. Carmine is still stubborn, I support you to live a free life elsewhere." Colin had already thought of the worst outcome, and he said sadly.
, "Even if your family no longer cares about you, don't worry, I'm still here. Although we grew up together and have basically never been separated, I will be very reluctant to let you go. But I know that watching a good brother live
If it doesn't go my way, I will feel even more uncomfortable. So... Chris, feel free to do what you want to do. Even if I can only hear about your current situation through letters or phone calls, I will still be there for you as before.
Feel happy.”
Verak stood up and walked to Colin, with a complicated light in his eyes: "Thank you for everything you have done for me."
"Don't be stupid. I feel really bad when I think about you sharing at least half of my pocket money in the future -" Colin pretended to feel heartache and covered his chest with his hands, and suddenly realized, "Eh? That's not right.
No, no, you’ve been thinking about doing business quietly recently to make money without letting your parents know, are you just saving money and waiting to take Elizabeth away to fly away? "
Verak did not expect that this increasingly outrageous incident could be perfectly connected to his business affairs.
It is seamless and natural.
"Yes, you saw it." Verak nodded, acknowledging the logical chain that had exceeded the scope.
"I'm just telling you, why did you suddenly leave the record company alone and come to do this kind of small business?" Colin slapped his thigh, as if he already knew everything, "That's it, you're still hiding it from me.
?Wouldn’t it be better if you couldn’t say it earlier?”
"I've never been sure about this, so I thought I'd tell you once it's settled." Verak said bravely.
Colin also stood up: "Then it stands to reason that you should be able to make a lot of money, right? When you and Elizabeth fly away, don't I have to use my pocket money to support you?"
"Maybe." Seeing Colin resume his pick-and-seek look, Verak couldn't help but smile.
"It must be done." This time it was Colin who patted Verak on the shoulder, "It's not to save my pocket money, I just want you to live a better life."
"Yes." Verak said.
"Dong dong dong." There was a knock on the door.
Verak knew it was Carmine coming: "I'll open the door."
"Mr. Carmine." When Colin saw Carmine standing behind the door, he quickly bowed and saluted, "I just heard from Chris that you were busy, so I didn't go to say hello to you."
"It's okay, sit down." Carmine looked kindly and sat on the sofa opposite Colin. "Chris, Kellerman doesn't know what's wrong. I asked you to come over."
"Okay." Verak was about to leave.
Colin also heard that Carmine wanted to send Verak away on purpose. Before Verak left, he nodded firmly to him, as if he would help him handle it.
Verak watched it all, and just hoped that Colin wouldn't muddy the water by saying anything nonsense.
After closing the door, Verak symbolically asked Kellerman if he had anything to do with him. The result was that he didn't, so he came to the hall and sat alone, calming down and thinking.
What if the situation is really the worst? Elizabeth knows about the Equality Society, and after confirming that Verak is not the real Chris, she will find the Equality Society to reveal the truth.
Even if she talks to the Ping Ping Association, the Ping Ping Association may not believe her, but there is inevitably a huge risk.
Thinking of this, Verak raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and his whole person became relaxed.
Colin's words just now touched him greatly, and he couldn't help crying after hearing the news that Nord was still alive yesterday. Verak knew that being alive was the greatest victory, and that having friends still was the greatest luck.
If Elizabeth really knew, it would have been better if he had left with Nord and Diaz in advance.
