brother, it's mine

Chapter 12 Growth (4)

Lancelot's voice woke Elizabeth up. The little girl thought a little more than others, and her observation and intuition were much better than ordinary people.

Elizabeth noticed Lancelot's relaxed attitude, which made her quite uncomfortable with Lancelot, who had always been at odds with each other.

This kind of gentle tone and eyes, Elizabeth thought, she no longer needs it, she has grown up, and she is no longer the little girl who simply yearned for family affection.

But the strong sense of incompatibility also calmed down the anger in a timely manner. Elizabeth said calmly: "This time I went to China to deal with the affairs of the pharmaceutical factory jointly invested by Duanjia and Uncle Mamon. It’s a statusless existence like a trainee.”

Elizabeth narrowed her eyes: "So why bother to do such boring things with me."

At the end of the talk, Elizabeth had a faintly disdainful tone. In fact, she didn't do it on purpose, but she has been getting along like this for many years, and she can't change it for a while.

Of course, Lancelot heard the disdainful tone of his sister at the end. The faint consciousness of being a good brother disappeared immediately, and the pure and beautiful boy frowned: "You don't want me to go? Then I will go! Ke Christine, you are a stinky girl! I am so mad!"

I didn't expect... It was unexpected, the situation of not being able to get along peacefully made the incident worse, Elizabeth dropped the word "as you please", turned and left without turning her head, behind her was Lancelot's usual roar.

In the room, after Elizabeth's back disappeared, Lancelot sat back on the chair and muttered to himself: "It's so dangerous, I was almost brainwashed by Lin, what should I cherish if my sister is so uncute!"

Elizabeth walked all the way back to the room, closed the door in a casual state with implied vigilance, and the little girl stood by the window and dialed the phone.

"Good morning, my lovely niece."

The phone connects.Uncle Marmon's cheerful voice came, Elizabeth pursed her lips, and said plainly: "Mother seems to be wary of my purpose of going to China, and arranged for Lancelot to go with me."

"Messer is right to be vigilant." Mamon laughed twice, "Isn't it true? If you succeed this time, you will be the third female head of the August family, and the only one. one--"

"The twins who represent 'unlucky' have also taken the position of Patriarch."

Just as the word ominous came out, Elizabeth gripped the phone tightly, her slender and pale fingers protruding from the knuckles due to too much force.

The August family is an ancient family that originated in Northern Europe and has been thriving to this day.This kind of family often has a set of rules independent of the world, among which is the saying that twins represent auspiciousness.

With the development of science and technology, their younger generation would not believe this superstitious statement in this era, but the people in power, the people who hold real power, are the older generation with old-fashioned thinking.

If it weren't for the strength of Messer's own family, and the fact that the direct line of the August family only had Elizabeth and Lancelot, their father Victor, the only male, it is very likely that the moment she and Lancelot were born will be deprived of the status of heir.

This is also why Messer hates her.

It would be great if there was only one son, Lancelot, a stable successor.Messer probably felt that she was superfluous every time she saw her, or even an eyesore, which was the biggest obstacle for Lancelot to ascend to the position of Patriarch.

But why?

"Fate has been destined to make my life unfair from the moment I was born." Elizabeth said softly, "Then I was born to step on it."

There was a short silence on the other side of the microphone, and then Mamon couldn't help laughing, which seemed to be a little mocking, but also seemed to be admiring.

"Elizabeth." Mamon stopped laughing, and his voice was kind, "I really like you more and more. But have you ever thought about what to do if you fail? Once you fail, Messer will definitely find you What are you going to do at that time?"

Elizabeth was silent. Although she kept telling herself that she would succeed, she was only a 17-year-old girl after all. In the dead of night, she also thought about the consequences of failure.

Messer has no mother-daughter affection for her, a blood relative who was conceived in October, Lancelot is the treasure in his heart, but she is an obstacle that she can't wait to get rid of.

A dog has been kept for a long time, and people will develop feelings after getting along for a long time.Messer is her mother. It has been 17 years, and there is nowhere to show her feelings. Messer saw her grow up, become smart, beautiful, and calm, and the disgust and calculation in her eyes became more and more obvious.

She should have been disappointed long ago, but every time she thinks that this person is hers...

When I was a mother, there would be a sharp pain from the fingertips again.

"Failure?" Elizabeth tilted her head, and Mamon couldn't see the innocent and almost indifferent expression on the little girl's face, "What else can I do? The worst is already like this. There is a difference between a little more disgust and a little less disgust." What's the difference?"

There was Mamon's sighing voice from the microphone. The child understood it very well, but it was really not comforting. After growing up under so many grievances, she finally grew into the invulnerable appearance she is now.

"Elizabeth." Mamon's voice was stained with wind and frost, "I have no wife and no children, and you were also raised by me. If you fail, come to my place."

"I will not fail." Elizabeth pursed her lips and said stubbornly.

"No." Mamon recovered his calm voice, "I just want to tell you to let it go, because the worst consequence is that you still have me as a powerful backer to rely on."

"Thank you." After a long time, Elizabeth spit out these words.

She could feel the sincerity in Uncle Mamon's words. The figure of her father, whom she only saw once in a few years when she was a child, had long been indifferent. At this moment, she thought of the image of her father in her childhood fantasy.

Probably like this, you can be a carefree little girl who makes trouble everywhere.

Because my father will always stand behind me, and he is probably more solid than granite in this world to rely on.

"Thank you." Elizabeth shed tears silently and repeated again.

——Fate was doomed to make my life unfair from the moment I was born.

——Then I was born to step on it to the soles of my feet.

－－－－－－off topic－－－－－

La la~ I like Elizabeth the most, so I can't help but write more scenes. This girl is actually like Lin Shaofeng's comparison. It's because of her parents' dereliction of duty (Lin Shaofeng's parents died early). Lin Shaofeng met a good brother. After a blissful childhood of nine short years, Elizabeth was unlucky to have only a slightly spoiled, prone to blow-up, slightly older brother.

It's also like Lin Shaoyu, whose parents have neglected their duties. What they have in common is precocious indifference and deep thoughts.

This volume is considered to be the penultimate volume. Lin Shaoyu and Lin Shaofeng are the main CPs, and Elizabeth and Lancelot are the sub-CPs, so they may... steal the show...

By the way, I will tell you that besides Shaoyu, the second favorite is Elizabeth~ Domineering and arrogant Xiaoluo (female) Li (king)~
