Red Dead Redemption: Western Consortium
Chapter 173 Love and Faith
Rand Farm.
David received Trelawney's letter from St. Denis.
It's about the Laremy Gang.
He has already found a middleman who has cooperated with Laremy before, and he believes that he will not arouse Laremy's suspicion.
However, the other party said that he needed a reward of at least US$500 before he agreed to do this for David.
500 U.S. dollars was nothing to David, but it was obvious that Trelawney couldn't afford it, and David still needed to pay.
In fact, David could pay the post office in the name of the company through telegrams and let Trelawney get the money, but after a slight hesitation, David decided to change the method.
There has been no news about Stella for a long time, which of course does not mean she is missing.
After Stella left last time, the two of them would be in constant contact, nominally about work, but actually there was some ambiguity in it.
I have to admit, this feeling is indeed good.
However, a few weeks ago, Stella seemed to have suddenly changed. She had a completely business-like attitude and became cold.
David didn't pay much attention at first, but as a few weeks passed, he vaguely felt that something was wrong.
Although Stella is David's company's legal adviser, for now, there is basically nothing for her to help with.
And David is not very convenient to get to Saint Denis.
So I took advantage of this incident to contact Stella.
The telegram was delivered quickly, and David kept a lot of dollars in the post office. Whenever there was an emergency, he would ask the staff at the other post office to help run errands. With the help of tips, they were obviously willing to serve David.
Saint-Denis, high-end apartment building.
"Hello, Miss Stella, here is your telegram." The post office staff knocked on the door respectfully.
This is considered a commercial apartment, and the company and accommodation are basically together.
Stella's law firm obviously exists in this way. After all, in the field of legal consultants, at this time, they basically serve the wealthy, and there are basically no door-to-door customers.
"Thank you."
Stella, wearing a women's suit, took the telegram from the post office staff and began to read it.
In the telegram was David's request for help, telling Stella that a man named Josiah Trelawney would come to see her in the next two days.
The $500 has been transferred to Stella's company account via wire transfer.
She didn't need too many words. Although the telegram didn't say anything, how could Stella not understand that David obviously didn't need to go through her.
"Goddess of Destiny, is this your test for me? You let me meet him, but you made me take a step slower."
"I should have thought of it a long time ago. What Catherine introduced was not helping me, but helping him. It's funny that I never realized it."
"David, David, why do you want me to be one step slower than Catherine? It would be better if I got to know you first."
"But if you don't know Catherine, how can I know you."
Some time ago, Stella wrote a letter of thanks to Catherine after becoming David's legal adviser to Rand Security Company.
After all, David, a big client, saved her law firm. As an introducer, Catherine naturally had a lot of credit.
But when she received Catherine's reply, Stella felt bad.
Because in the letter, Catherine talked about how much she missed David and thanked Stella for helping David. These words made Stella immediately realize the relationship between Catherine and David.
Originally, after handling the company matters for David, Stella was ready to go to Valentine again, but now she did not dare to go.
She was confident in her beauty, but doing so violated her morals and her conscience.
Catherine introduced a business to her, but she even wanted to steal her boyfriend away. What was going on?
So if Stella wants to slowly talk about her relationship with David, she needs to calm down for at least a while. ?
In the Federation, there are two extremes when it comes to love.
In most love relationships that advocate freedom and equality, even if they have slept with each other, they are not necessarily boyfriend and girlfriend. Even if the two have an intimate relationship, it is just a date, a liking, not love, let alone a marriage. 's palace.
It is very common for multiple people to have intimate activities at the same time, but after getting married, it is completely different.
This is especially evident with Abigail. No one cares whether she is pure or not. Most people don't care about this.
But that's not the case with Catherine and Stella.
The upper levels of the federation are basically dominated by Puritans, whether in politics or other aspects, and Puritan families are extremely strict about intimacy. In their dogma, intimacy without love is very exclusive.
Intimacy, especially before marriage, is seen as betraying one's faith.
Stella and Catherine's families were basically Puritans, which also led to their attitudes towards marriage and intimacy being completely different from other Commonwealth people. ?
