Athena bowed slightly in return, and only smiled and said: "Why do you care? Adjani and I were classmates when we were in Paris. Today I learned that she returned to China and I came here to congratulate her. Although there was a little quarrel in the past But it's all from the past, how can I keep it in my heart!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? You just..." Adjani was furious and wanted to argue, but her sister Mrs. Pembasa just smiled and interrupted directly: "That is naturally the best, Miss and Adjani People who are similar in age should get along well, it would be even better if they could be companions!"

Athena smiled slightly and nodded, which means she agreed, "I still have to see Miss Mary, so let's go first?"

"Oh, of course! Please." Mrs. Pembasa pulled Adjani to the side to make way for Athena. Although Adjani was full of resistance, she still obeyed her sister's words, even though her face was unhappy But it's just the unhappiness on the surface, in fact, he didn't even say a word.

When Athena walked away, Ajani immediately pulled Pembasha's sleeve, half coquettish and half complaining, "Sister, why do you want to help her? She was such an annoying person when she was in Paris." , stupid bastard, out to steal my limelight. Now she's back in London and..."

"Okay!" Mrs. Peng Basha scolded slightly, "You are about the same age as her next year, but you are not half as sensible as her in words, deeds, and dealing with things. Even if you don't like it, you should save face. You are not a shrew on the street. Do you want to fight with her every now and then?

She was the guest of His Royal Highness Prince Albert and Princess Mary, and the portrait she drew for Prince Albert won the appreciation of Her Majesty the Queen. Artists all over London would like to see her. It's Miss Holmes! "

"She just relied on her ability to draw..." Adjani pouted her face with displeasure, she was obviously the protagonist of today's banquet, but she came to steal the limelight again, and she was against herself everywhere in Paris. It's still the same in London.

Peng Basha took her hand patiently, and comforted her in a soft voice: "Father has arranged for today's affairs for a long time. This is the first time you socialize when you first return to London. You must be beautiful. I hope you will like it." A gentleman with a good status will save you a lot of troubles, if you have a little more luck... the person you like also likes you!"

"Sister, you clearly know that I already have someone I like, but you still insist on persecuting me like this with your father. Isn't it enough for you to suffer? I don't want to follow the same old path as you and become a tool of my father!" Ajani's face became even more ugly, and she said: "You should think about what to do with the illegitimate child that your father arranged for you?"

After she finished speaking, she picked up the hem of her skirt and walked away, continuing to look for an object of love who didn't know if she might come or not in the aimless hall.

On the other side, Athena, who finally got rid of the two sisters, just walked upstairs easily. She looked back at Vettel from time to time and said excitedly: "I like her! Mrs. Pembasa! Such a beautiful and mature sister , Sexy, charming, and has a high EQ and can talk, she deserves the love of countless good men, not just being treated as a lover by them."

Vettel was stunned when he heard this. Is there anyone who praises his rival in love so much?If she knew the relationship between Inspector Lestrade and this Mrs. Pembasa, could the lady say such a thing?Vettel couldn't help but feel a little dumbfounded, and when he walked up quickly, he found that Athena had already started talking with Princess Mary.

Athena only had a relationship with this Miss Mary as painting for her, but she had a good impression of her.Mary has a delicate face but is not delicate at all, she speaks decently and elegantly, and acts more maturely and calmly than a man. Athena even regrets that she is going to marry such a philandering bisexual as Prince Albert. Love big radish.

But fortunately, Mary in history did not marry him in the end.

Mary's father is the Duke of Teck, and her mother is the daughter of the Duke of Cambridge, the seventh son of King George III of England. The family is also a member of the royal family.It's just that her family has never been reused by the royal family, and the queen only thinks of Mary when she is only in order to discipline Prince Albert, the second in line heir to the royal family who is more carefree and careless than his father.

Mary's temperament is resolute and quiet, polite, polite and extremely strict and conservative. She is really the best candidate for the future queen.But in fact, it was strange that Mary seemed to like Athena who was not polite, rigorous, and unruly. She got along very well with her only in the few hours of the portrait, and even invited her to the ball.

Mycroft said it was because Miss Mary liked art very much and admired her painting skills.Athena didn't think so, maybe Mary also wanted to be an unruly lady, a lady who said she would never marry if she didn't marry?

Athena and Mary sat side by side on soft chairs and looked at the extremely lively dance floor in the distance. If she was more careful, Athena could even see Mary's future husband--Prince Albert, who was holding a house in his arms. The lady danced lightly in the middle of the dance floor, and the girl who had made a marriage contract with her was sitting below.

Athena turned her head slightly, she was sure that Mary must have seen it, and almost everyone in the audience saw it.But so what?Even if a marriage contract is established, can Prince Albert's flirtatious habits be changed?Most people are not surprised either.

Mary's face was the same as usual, her dignified smile did not show any frustration, but because Athena had been looking at her with concern, Mary comforted her in turn: "I'm fine! This is my life, just get used to it!"

"Does it have to be like this? To marry..." Athena couldn't finish her words, but Vettel, who stood aside and never lowered her head, suddenly interrupted her words with a cough. The royal marriage is not something that Athena can do. Talk nonsense.Athena felt a slip of the tongue and quickly shut up, but fortunately Mary didn't care too much.

She just smiled and said: "I know you are Mike's sister, I am really envious. Although you are not in London these years, noble gentlemen from various families often come to Mike and want to catch up with this family. Mike is a good brother. They all refused, and said that these people want to use marriage as a business without even saying a word to you."

Athena smiled slightly, yes!Mycroft was the best brother.

Mary held her hand, blinked mischievously and said, "It's a good thing you were not born into a noble family, and all marriages in such a family are business. You are such a passionate and eccentric girl, but you can't get used to being rigid and can't make mistakes. life."

"Yeah! Fortunately!" Athena nodded slightly, and then looked at the dance floor again, only to see a man in a navy uniform standing not far away. He looked at this place with fiery eyes, and after several hesitations, he finally came over. .

He is very similar to Prince Albert, and it is not difficult to guess his status and identity wherever he passes.He is obviously a brother, but he is more radiant than the gloomy Prince Albert. If Prince Albert is a melancholy young man, then this is really a sunny boy.

His skin is slightly dark. Apart from being at sea all year round, there is really no possibility of tanning due to the terrible weather in London.

Mary seemed very happy to see him, but she still kept manners in mind and smiled lightly: "George? When did you come back? Look at your beautiful uniform...have you been promoted to squadron leader?"

Prince George looked at Mary, the man's beautiful and clear eyes were shining, he just smiled honestly and stretched out his hand to kiss the back of her hand.Then he put his hands back behind his back again, and his white gloved palm tightly held the index finger of his other hand, hiding all his uneasiness behind him, and his face was still a smiling prince.

"Mei!" He called Mary's nickname affectionately, licked his lips shyly and stretched out his hand, "May I invite you to a dance?"

Mary saluted in a ladylike way, and just now she took his arm and said, "Of course it's no problem!" After saying that, the two nodded slightly to Athena before sliding onto the dance floor.

The tall, handsome and smiling prince and the dignified, elegant and quiet princess seem to be the correct way to open up.

Athena stood up and looked into the distance without blinking, but Vettel kept shaking his head and said: "This is not a good phenomenon!"

Athena suddenly patted Vettel and said, "You are not their housekeeper, why do you care about other people? No gentleman has invited me to dance until now, hum~"

Vettel clutched his forearm and complained, "You can't blame me! Sir, you are protecting your reputation. Anyone who has passed the gate of Pall Mall Street will probably dare not invite you to dance again. The rest will not be afraid of death." The... huh? It's really here!"

Athena followed Vettel's eyes, and it turned out to be Lord Eustace. Today, he still looked at her with a good look and looked at her very attentively, saying: "Miss Holmes!"

"Ralph, are you here too? Please tell me that you are here to invite me to dance!" Athena looked at the young handsome blond and thick-faced guy in front of her coquettishly. She didn't have time to say a few words to him. They were blocked by the two elder brothers, Sherlock and Mycroft respectively.

Although Mycroft has repeatedly emphasized that he should not play with fools, it is still okay to dance!Otherwise, if even fools don't dance with her, what else can they do when they come to the ball by themselves?

Lord Eustace smiled excitedly: "Of course, my dear lady, I don't know if I have this honor?" He stretched out his hand as he spoke.

Athena glanced at Vettel in a happy mood, and finally got a positive response from Vettel. She was about to reach out when she suddenly heard: "No! You can't dance with her!"

Athena turned around in a daze, why is it Ajani?

She rushed up suddenly, inserted between herself and Lord Eustace, and said with a sweet smile, "You should dance with me, handsome sir!"

WTF?Can this also be cut off?Can't you even find a fool to dance with?

The author has something to say: Athena participated in a prom, and for no apparent reason, she had several rivals in love hahaha... In fact, she just wanted to come out to play and dance seriously.

Athena: I don't pick!Even a handsome fool can dance!

Ajani: No!you can not!

Athena: How about... a field flower?Where have you been?Haven't you been coveting me for a long time?Where are you?

Pembasha: No!you can not!

Athena: Doubt about life, dare I come here to sit and watch and eat melons, right?
