"Miss Brown, I don't think you need to say her name."
Shad stopped her:
"It was the time she went to Regent's Park to participate in the event. I knew you turned around, trying to deliberately avoid possible sight, but she recognized you just from your back, so I came."
From this, it can be seen how much psychological shadow the incident eight years ago left on the princess with pale blond hair.
The panic and despair on Miss Brown's face did not lessen, she pursed her lips:
"She still remembers me?"
Xia De nodded slightly, and looked at this small kitchen. His house is only the kitchen of Room 1 on the second floor, which is at least three times the size of this place:
"Yes, she is sorry for what happened back then. After you 'burned yourself to death' in the apartment in Willendale, she was very sad. I think if I didn't miss you all the time, I wouldn't just rely on a back view found you."
Shad told the truth:
"Miss Brown, I'm just the person sent by that lady to investigate you. But in fact, I haven't told her that you are from MI6. She still thinks you are just an ordinary maid."
Xia De put one hand on the table, standing very relaxed:
"The only one who knows your secret is me."
Then, he glanced at the gun on the table again:
"And what that His Highness will know is entirely up to me."
"What do you want from me? Gold pounds? MI6 secrets? My body?"
Miss Brown bit her lip and asked, but she didn't expect Xia De to shake her head:
"I don't want to threaten you with 'Miss Brown, you don't want your image in His Highness's heart to be destroyed'. What I want is that His Highness can accept all this with the best mood, instead of knowing that I feel guilty The maid for eight years turned out to be a big liar."
His purpose is not to earn bounties from any party, and naturally his main purpose is not to expose the other party.
Miss Brown took a deep look at him:
"Sir, what is your relationship with Your Highness?"
Of course Shad would not answer:
"I will not arrange for you to meet her, but you have to write a letter, and I will not interfere with the content of the letter. I will bring your letter to His Highness. After that, will you leave immediately, or wait for His Highness to decide Don't see you, this is all your own business."
He took out a pen and paper from his pocket:
"Write now."
Then took the purple cabbage:
"I'll cook for you, don't let your uncle suspect."
Seeing Xia De pick up the kitchen knife, Miss Brown took another look at the revolver left on the table, and finally did not take the risk.
She hesitated, and reminded embarrassingly:
"Before cutting the vegetables, it's best to wash the vegetables...it will spoil your stomach."
Shad hoped that at noon today, Mr. Brown would accept the "unique" taste of scrambled eggs with purple cabbage.
Miss Brown hesitated for a long time when she wrote the letter, and wept as she wrote it in Shad's notebook. From this point of view, MI6's decision to let her retire immediately after that mission was correct. Qualified undercover agents should not have feelings for mission goals, but obviously this lady who pursues knowledge and art is a bit too emotional .
Miss Brown's letter was only two-thirds written by Shade's plate of scrambled eggs with purple cabbage, which at least looked good.
Xia De waited for a while before he got the folded paper. He looked in Miss Brown's face, then raised his eyebrows:
"I expected that you wouldn't hide too many things, but I didn't expect you to say everything."
She revealed everything directly, including that she was an undercover agent for MI6, and that she was now freed by yet another fake death.
"It's pointless to hide those things, sir, since you can find out about me, so can others."
Miss Brown, standing by the smoking table, said:
"I won't run away. My family, my fiancé, and my studies are all here. If His Highness wants to see me, I can go see her anytime."
Xia De shook his head, not saying much about it. In his opinion, if he hadn't known everything in advance, this might be another tragedy that no one would be happy about. And the most tragic point is that Xia De can't even think that anyone in this matter has done something wrong.
"You'd better be careful yourself. Since His Highness can find you, maybe someone else will find you. I really don't understand why you want to go back to Tobesk."
He took the letter and was about to leave.
"People always want something to pursue. My pursuit is knowledge and art."
Miss Brown said softly, and then watched Shade retract the revolver:
"For me, Your Highness...everything is safe."
Without even having lunch, Shad took a carriage directly from Knoll Street to Canary Manor, and met Princess Margaret who had just finished her trip this morning.
Because it was not the first time Xia De came to visit, the servants were not surprised that Xia De came in a hurry. He waited in the study for a while before he saw the tired Princess Margaret walk in:
"It is indeed alive."
"What's still alive?"
"That maid you asked me to find."
Shad pointed to the letter:
"I've found her. This is a letter she wrote to you. If you still want to see her after reading the letter, I can take you there directly."
Only then did the princess with pale golden hair come to her senses, the hand holding the letter subconsciously exerted force, her eyes slightly widened and she looked at Xia De:
"She...is still alive? How is this possible? The fire...what happened here."
Although she commissioned Xia De to investigate, she did not expect to get such an astonishing answer, and Xia De's investigation speed was too fast.
"The letter contains the answer you want. Maybe... the story of the matter is a little different from what you thought, but at least, according to the part of the truth I got from her, you did not do anything unreasonable back then. Wrong thing to redeem."
He sat on the short sofa again, watched Princess Margaret take the letter and sat on the couch next to him, and then unfolded the letter.
How rich a person's expression can be, this is something Shade has never explored. But at least this time, he did see the rich expression on the face of Princess Margaret, a girl who was used to all kinds of things.
It was clearly only three pages, but she read it for twenty minutes before finishing it. In Xia De's view, Margaret Anjou had always been a girl with a strong personality and extremely confident, but this time he saw the hesitation, hesitation, anger, relief, and then the extremely complicated expressions on the princess's face.
The letter paper was already wrinkled at this time, and the princess looked at Xia De with her beautiful eyes:
"You read that letter too?"
"Yes, I want to make sure she's not lying."
The princess pursed her lips:
"So, I was cheated for eight years?"
"But at least you don't have to think about those purple cabbage anymore."
Xia De said, looking at him, he knew that Her Royal Highness needed some psychological counseling at this time:
"At least one thing that has been troubling you for a long time is gone."
"But I was lied to for eight years."
She stared at the letter in her hand and repeated.
"Marguerite Anjou."
Xia De called out the princess's name, and when the other party looked up at him, he fixed her eyes tightly:
"Then tell me, tell the truth. When you are sure that this Miss Bella Brown is still alive and well, are you very glad in your heart?"
She wanted to avoid Xia De's eyes, but the moment she met Xia De's gaze, her eyes seemed to be firmly attracted by some force. Xia De has never learned the "charm technique" in any sense, but the eyes are the windows of the soul, derived from the power of a powerful soul, and spontaneously attracted Princess Margaret's sight.
bit his lip:
"Yes, to be honest, I did breathe a sigh of relief.
"Because no one lost their life because of your picky eaters and willfulness."
Hearing Xia De say "picky eater", the princess blushed a bit, she thought it was the maid who told Xia De about it:
"Yes, no one lost their life because of my waywardness, I'm really happy... Oh, but I was indeed deceived by a liar for eight years. She was actually a military agent..."
"I will not defend Miss Brown, she is not loyal as your maid, this has happened~www.mtlnovel.com~ and you have the right to deal with her."
Xia De said that he was about to ask how to deal with Miss Brown next, but the princess asked him again:
"This incident involved MI6, Xia De, aren't you surprised? Although the ring warlock has seen more strange things, it is MI6 after all."
"But Miss Brown has retired, she is no longer an agent."
Xia De said seriously:
"Besides, if I promise you, I will definitely do it. MI6 is not an obstacle for me to complete the commission you gave me. You see, although I haven't been able to find the sorceress you mentioned, at least the maid , I found it."
For a moment, Marguerite Anjou was afraid to look at Xia De's smiling face:
"I know you want to comfort me, so that I don't have to be angry because of this matter. Oh, knight, I am the second princess of Carson Rik, and I am stronger than you think...you said Yes, it’s good that she didn’t die, although I was cheated, but at least I didn’t do anything wrong.”
"You stand on the high ground of morality. In this matter, you are the complete victim. You can despise anyone in this matter and punish her with your own actions."
Xia De said, the princess finally showed a smile, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and the contrast between the red lips and the fine white fluff at the corners of her mouth was exceptionally clear:
"Xia De, you don't need to persuade me anymore, I've already adjusted my mood."
She looked at the letter in her hand:
"In any case, the incident eight years ago is considered to have come to an end."
"There are always many stories in life. On the bright side, at least the ending of this story is not a bad ending, isn't it?"
Shad made the final conclusion.
