He raised his head and drank the brandy in the glass, but there was still a piece of ice-cold, bitter cold in the chest. The intricate emotions were eating away the skin and flesh inch by inch, and the numb and sharp pain began to spread slowly, but Can't get rid of it, even the movement of resistance can't be done.

Both George and Elizabeth were like sleepy beasts, their irritability and anxiety continued to roll, rampage, but they couldn't find a catharsis.

Before, they tried their best to get rid of the award; now, they do all they can to receive the medal. But neither of the two ideas nor the two plans were able to achieve their wishes. The sense of powerlessness has even surpassed anger and fear, crushing their souls bit by bit. After the pain reached the extreme, they could not shout at all, just like this silently. Sitting still in the same place, feeling the pain of the ashes and disintegration sweeping across the vastness.

"Matthew told me his decision." Elizabeth said calmly.

"There is no need to spend your thoughts. He will never care about what you care about; you will never understand what he cares about. If you really want to use him, then you should at least show some sincerity, not for benefit When you arrive, try to find a way. Mrs. Hall, we are not children anymore and should not be so naive. Otherwise, you can at least let each other go and leave a little space. He won’t kill them all, and you can continue to enjoy The aura and glory brought by the title of'Hall' continue to be peaceful."

These are the original words of Matthew, without a dirty word, cold words and even a hint of waves, but it makes Elizabeth shiver in anger. There is an impulse in her mind to smash the phone directly, but the years of quality are still controlled. I didn't lose my temper on the phone because of myself.

Sure enough, Matthew and Lan Li are the same.

Even in retrospect, the emotionless words stung her self-esteem severely. Elizabeth couldn't control her emotions. Under the calm voice, the muscles had already tightened completely; but she didn't want to be in front of George. He lost his courtesy, so he quickly said the final decision, "He has already expressed his refusal by email."

Has been rejected.

It is not considering, nor is it waiting to be discussed, but directly refused, leaving no room for maneuver.

George never expected that Lan Li was so cruel and cruel, so he simply chose to refuse, and did not even leave a chance for relaxation. That kind of astonishment made his emotions surge again; and Elizabeth thought she had thought about it, because Lan Li is such a cold-blooded guy, but when she really got the confirmation from Matthew, she still couldn't believe that Lan Li didn't have a trace of nostalgia for family affection, and she didn't even care about the surname of Hall.

Or is it because Lan Li deliberately wanted to retaliate against them, so did he specifically reject the award? If this is the case, then Lanli's goal has been achieved. Now, they are in hell, every inch of their skin is suffering from the flames of fire, almost unbearable.

Where did things go wrong?

"...Stop him! Stop him! We have to stop him! The **** guy! Royal Mail? Did you decline the invitation through Royal Mail? Let's contact now to prevent his mail from returning to the royal family! Block the mail directly! "

George was really frustrated. He even uttered a **** and said nonchalantly--just thirty seconds ago, in the next room, he was still receiving the baptism of envying his gaze; even at this moment, All the sights in the afternoon tea room were filled with admiration and admiration, and the skin surface was slightly hot, but now, the world he constructed was falling apart, like the end of the world.

Damn it. Damn it. Damn it!

"How to stop (How)?" Elizabeth also countered a word, and cut off all George's words abruptly. Then she took a deep breath and said, "Face the reality, now we are We are the weak, and we have no resistance. We have no choice but to accept."

"Shut up." This was George's response.

George could see the corners of Elizabeth’s mouth outline a shallow arc, which was not obvious but existed, as if mocking his incompetence and panic, reminding him of the smile of Elf at the Oxford Earl’s Dinner last year. , All the emotions broke through the chest in an instant.

With his hands clenched into fists, his irritable anger was screaming, almost, just a little bit, like a volcano directly erupting; but at the critical moment, George still controlled himself-because all the eyes around him Looking at them, those envious, jealous, and hateful sights are aiming at their every move. Any little commotion may become people's after-dinner conversation.

He cannot take risks.

With great difficulty, he returned to the sight of the upper class. He couldn't take risks, and he couldn't give up. All the negative emotions swarmed up and broke through the brain in an instant. Instead, it calmed him down. The grim brows burst out with a sharp, faintly visible shadow of Lan Li-but they are different after all, they look like gods but they don’t, George. -Hall and Lanly-Hall have become two completely different people, even Arthur-Hall is different.

"The matter is not over yet." George said calmly.

Elizabeth disagreed, "The matter is over."

George's eyebrows sharpened instantly, and he repeated, "I said, the matter is not over yet."

But Elizabeth didn't buy it at all. She looked up and poured the whole glass of brandy into her throat. "What else can you do? Run to his side and force him to withdraw the rejection statement? The initiative has never been in our hands." After that, Elizabeth was about to turn around and leave. She didn't want to keep entangled any more. She still had a lot of mess to deal with, and she didn't have time to take care of the children here—

I didn’t think it before because George was always able to stay strong enough; but since the banquet of the Earl of Oxford last year, disasters and blows have followed one after another. George, who grew up in a greenhouse, has never faced such storms before, and then he In such a steadily retreat, the mask of honor and pride also fell apart little by little, not even comparable to Elizabeth.

"Yes!" George's words stopped Elizabeth from leaving. "That's it!" George's eyes brightened. "We went to the United States to find him personally and asked him to withdraw his rejection statement."

Elizabeth's face changed slightly, "You're crazy!" She looked at George in disbelief, "We just sent a postcard in the past, and now you are going to lose all your face and dignity and go straight to the door? Sir George Hall! Have you abandoned all your hereditary aristocratic pride?"

George's expression also froze: sending a blank postcard, which has cost them countless energy, hesitated and then hesitated before deciding to take the initiative. This step is definitely not that simple; if you go straight to the door now, then He really lost all his face-all to blame that bastard, if it weren’t because that guy was really annoying and completely disrupted all their layouts, he wouldn’t have forgotten his identity impulsively. !

But his thoughts only paused, and then George came up with another solution, "We don’t need us to come to the door in person, we can send an envoy to come to convince him, if he refuses, then we give him a condition that cannot be refused, then That's it!"

Elizabeth frowned slightly, "Why? Why should he accept? He has never been a personality at his mercy, and now we don't have a bargaining chip to make him submit." But she did not leave after all, because she also started. Thinking about this possibility-if possible, she also hoped that Lan Li would accept the award.

"Arthur and Edith." George's thinking became clear. "Either threaten or induce. We can use Arthur and Edith to achieve our goals. He has no weaknesses, but Arthur and Edith are not. You Do you think he can do nothing?” At the beginning, they could use the nanny to keep Edith, and now they can repeat the same tricks; what's more, Edith’s actor boyfriend is also full of loopholes and exploits It's not difficult at all.

"What do you want to do?" Elizabeth's brows moved closer to the center, and she faintly felt that something was not quite right, but could not tell why.

George waved his hand gently and said calmly, "Relax, we can't really hurt Arthur or Edith. We just use them as a lobbyist to convince him, nothing more. This is just a way. , A way, don’t imagine things too complicated. Hey! Remember? We will never let our hands get bloody, this is not our way of doing things, no! We have some pride~www.novelhall. com~Don’t forget this."

Elizabeth did not speak, but calmed down and thought about it for a moment. An inspiration flashed in her mind, "I have a bold idea, maybe we can ask Philip to visit him."

"Philip?" George's face was confused, he didn't understand Elizabeth's intentions, Philip Demba? What else can a housekeeper be able to do?

Elizabeth shook her head, and a smile appeared in her smile, "Trust me, Philip may be more effective than you think. If Philip fails, then go the route of Arthur and Edith. I have a hunch, Philip can succeed."

They are not for themselves, but for the whole family, for the glory of the surname "Hall", I believe Arthur and Edith can understand, and I believe Philip can understand-after all, as long as Hall can regain its strength , Then their entire family can make new achievements, can't they?

Now, Renly has no way to reach a consensus with them, but as long as they can complete the communication, then Renly will stand on the same line with them. They have this confidence. Now, just need to build a communication bridge.
