Being provoked and threatened by Verac continuously and unscrupulously was a situation that Fletcher had never thought would happen. Unfortunately, he could only swallow his anger now and use cruel words to anger this young man, who was not sure how he would insult himself.
"It's almost time to go out after rest. I want to rest for a while." Verak randomly found a reason to drive Fletcher away.
Fletcher was eager to leave as soon as possible, so even though his legs were still weak and trembling, he gritted his teeth and stood up and left slowly
The door closed.
Verak closed his eyes, and his chest rose and fell greatly with his deep breaths.
Very refreshing.
The feeling of stepping under the feet of Fletcher, an arrogant old man, is something money cannot buy.
Verak will accept whatever revenge Fletcher will face next. His fear of Fletcher has been wiped away. This madman who bullies others finally dares not point fingers at him.
"Huh." Verak let out a long breath, as if the shoulders bearing the heavy burden were visibly relaxed.
What just happened gave him some new ideas about his own rules of survival in Lezein. Sometimes you don't need to be so forbearing when doing things. Being bolder will bring some risks, but solving the problem will be quite simple and happy.
Verak came to the bed, feeling the unprecedented relaxation while blowing in the wind.
Sure enough, it is easiest to be yourself.
"Verak..." Verak whispered his name.
He is always himself.
…
At eight o'clock in the evening, Verak and the Carmine family met Elizabeth at the door.
"Mr. Carmine, Mrs. Meira..." Elizabeth came alone in a off-shoulder white gauze skirt. She greeted Carmine and Meira first, and then looked at Verak, "Chris."
"Good evening, Elizabeth." Verak acted as calm and calm as yesterday, "Come in quickly."
The group came to the restaurant. Today's dinner was much richer than before. Elizabeth sat opposite Verak. Verak followed Carmine's arrangement and did not take the initiative to speak, waiting for Carmine to deal with it.
"This should be our first meeting." Carmine had a kind face and talked cordially with Elizabeth, "But I have heard Chris mention you countless times. If we have the chance, we will go and watch your performance.
"
"Thank you, Mr. Carmine." Elizabeth nodded gently and said softly, "It's an honor to perform for you."
After a while of pleasantries, Carmine got to the point of the day: "However, I just heard Chris mention your relationship not long ago. You are very good, but Chris and you are not suitable. On this point, Chris
Already realized."
Verak didn't expect Carmine to speak so directly. This kind of thing is actually more suitable for Mrs. Mela to do. Seeing that Carmine pointed him out, he spoke at the right time, continuing Carmine's rough and direct style: "Elizabeth,
I haven't seen you during this period of time, but I'm actually thinking about it. I... no longer love you, and I hope we won't continue to have contact in the future."
"You could have explained this kind of thing to me directly last night." As soon as Verak finished speaking, Elizabeth immediately replied.
"He didn't know how to talk to you last night. He came back and talked to me before we met tonight." Carmine explained for Verak, "It will be of no use to you or Chris if this matter is announced.
The good thing is that your acting career is on the rise, and Chris is about to get married, so I personally came forward today in the hope that the matter can be resolved today."
Facing Carmine's unkindness, Elizabeth's expression did not change at all: "I want to hear what Chris has to say."
"What my father said is what I meant." Verak said.
"Then why don't you tell me in person?" Elizabeth looked directly at Verak.
Verak pretended to feel guilty, with an apologetic look on his face and erratic eyes: "I know this is cruel to you, and I know you love me deeply...so I don't know how to tell you in person."
"But it would be even crueler for me to invite me over and say this in front of your whole family." Elizabeth didn't kowtow just because she was in the Thomas family. The Thomas family is the top financial group in Lezein. Emotional matters made her
She felt outraged.
"Our intention is not to embarrass you, but we just want to resolve this matter today." Carmine had remained polite before, but he sincerely looked down on this man who came from a poor family and was engaged in an unworthy job.
A professional girl, so after Elizabeth gave a tough reply without showing any signs of weakness, Carmine, who had also accumulated a lot of dissatisfaction during this period, became more arrogant and contemptuous, "Do you still want to pester Chris? This pair
There's nothing good for you."
"If he doesn't love me anymore, then there's no need for me to pester him." Elizabeth said.
The atmosphere at the dinner table became awkward because Carmine became stern and no one dared to touch the tableware.
"Kellerman, take Julia back to the room first." Carmine said.
"Okay father." Kellerman stood up and left the restaurant with the panicked Julia.
"Do you have any conditions? Do you need a sum of money before you leave Chris?" Carmine looked at Elizabeth.
Hearing this, Verak felt angry on behalf of Elizabeth. Obviously Elizabeth was the most innocent person. She was told to separate from Chris as soon as she arrived, and then before she could say anything, she was maliciously speculated about why she had not left for so long.
For money.
"I don't need money." Elizabeth's mood fluctuated. "I hope you won't maliciously speculate on me. I haven't heard from Chris in the past month. We met last night and he only said some very inexplicable words. Today
Inviting me here also directly informed us that there is no possibility. I am not staying here to ask for anything from you, I just hope to get an explanation and hear it from Chris himself."
"Chris, say it," Carmine said.
Verak felt that Elizabeth was a little pitiful. This was another person who was looked down upon by a high-ranking dignitary like Carmine: "I...I said it, Elizabeth. I no longer love you, and I will obey my father's arrangements.
"
"Okay, I agree." Elizabeth nodded, "Is there anything else?"
"No more." Carmine was surprised that Elizabeth would be so decisive, but it was just what he wanted.
"I can leave now and never see or have any contact with Chris again." Elizabeth promised, "But I have a request."
"Say, how much." Carmine squinted his eyes, thinking he had seen through Elizabeth's true face.
"I want to have a few last words with him privately," Elizabeth said.
