[Famous Books] Desire for control and arrogance

Alice has been following the butler in a daze, watching him enter the palace, but she didn't dare to look any more, ran to a corner, squatted on the ground, and completely emptied herself.

She knew that she was going to guess why he came, but the bad feeling was too strong for her to guess.

When she saw him, it was like seeing her father.

It's very strange, the disappointing memory first recalled the warm pictures of those fathers and kings living with her.

Her deepest memory, of course, is the memory of her mother's death.

At that time, she was still young, and she was crying all day and all night for her mother. At first, her father comforted her patiently, but she was easily caught in emotions, and it was completely difficult for her to accept not having a mother, and she couldn't be comforted well.

Half a month later, her father became restless and impatient. With red eyes, he sternly told her to shut up and criticized her. Alice immediately hated him very much.

He is not as gentle as his mother, not as careful as his mother, and does not understand her as well as his mother. He can't even spend more time with her. He coaxes her for a maximum of ten minutes each time, and then let the servant carry her away. Now he is still fierce. .

The strong disgust made her not want to live here. Every day, she secretly told the servants who loved her to let them take her away. Many people refused. Finally, one of the maids agreed. Alice was so happy that after her mother died. For the first time, I was able to eat my own food without being persuaded by others.

The maid personally conceived many beautiful futures for Alice. When Alice was most satisfied, she took Alice away from the palace, but after she left, she showed her hideous face and wanted to use Alice for profit.

It was a terrible memory. Alice remembered every second of fear in it, and also remembered that it was her father who saved her in the end.

When she saw her father again, her first instinct was that she was afraid that her father would scold her for being ignorant, and that she would run away with the bad guys, but her father just held her in his arms with trembling mouth and tears streaming down his face, without saying anything.

In his trembling breath, in his warm embrace, Alice finally found her support. His figure became as tall as the queen mother, and he stretched out his wings to protect her.

He was still very busy, but he began to learn to take care of her.

however……

However, the person she regarded as the only one to rely on, the person who could let her speak willfully, shortly after she reached adulthood, personally stuffed her into the hands of a beggar with messy hair reeking of alcohol, and forced them to get married.

She could easily take revenge on Aldrich, torture Aldrich without feeling it, and then laugh happily and feel comfortable all over.

But what about her father, that is the existence that she suffocates when she thinks about it now, she can't even face him, let alone revenge?

Only when seeing old people, those emotions that have been suppressed will grow wildly.

The strong hatred made many things boring now.

She felt that revenge on Aldrich was meaningless, watching Aldrich's jokes was meaningless, finding a new and particularly good husband to rely on was meaningless, working hard to make money was meaningless, and even living a good life became meaningless.

She can only be filled with hatred for her father, completely devoid of self-awareness.

Alice gritted her teeth silently and wept. Her whole body became cold from crying, tears flowed from her eyes, and a lot of cold sweat broke out on her body. The lack of water in her whole body made her weak. As long as she wanted to stand up, she felt that the sky was dark and her body was crumbling.

But she still supported the wall and stood up with difficulty, and stared at the palace door, praying frantically that she could watch the butler come out with her own eyes.

She may have been in such a miserable life that the gods couldn't stand it anymore, and finally her luck improved. After she watched the steward come out, she was escorted by the guards of the Kingdom of Campbell to a hotel not far from the palace to rest.

The guards didn't mobilize their troops to protect the steward all the time, and the steward also had servants with him, so they retreated quickly.

After watching the eyes and ears of Aldrich in the hotel leave, Alice pursed her lips and entered the hotel.

In fact, Alice also knows the servants around the steward, and there is even a maid named Laura who used to serve Alice.

Alice couldn't directly talk to those people, so she could only go in and pay the money, and while eating, she hoped to silently attract Laura's attention, and the two of them whispered for a while.

The gods really knew how to take pity on her, and actually made her wishes come true one by one. It didn't take long for her to meet Laura.

Laura came to the lobby on the first floor and was going to find the boss to prepare some food, but she noticed with sharp eyes that a male customer took off the mask covering his face, but that face...why does it look so much like their princess?The micro expression that stared at her and wanted her to go over was also like a princess.

Laura's body was faster than her consciousness. When she realized it, she was already sitting in front of the man, her eyes were red, and she became more excited after lowering her voice: "Princess...why are you here? Are you okay recently? Is it? Did you suffer a lot?"

Alice was kidnapped by a servant when she was a child, and her trust in the servant was limited. She was only a little moved when she saw this, but her voice was still relatively cold: "There are too many people in the shop, let's go out and talk."

After going out, she stood as cold as a block of ice, not speaking, with a bad expression on her face. Laura didn't dare to speak much at first, and even less dared to speak when she saw this.

Around a strong master, most of the servants are so weak.

Alice needed to communicate with Laura, and felt that she couldn't be like this after being demoted to a commoner, so she relaxed a little, let her eye circles turn red naturally, and let go of her weak appearance.

Laura has never seen Alice like this. She was there on the day Alice was kicked out of the palace, but even on that day, even though Alice was in a mess, her eyes were sharp. How could she look like she was wasted and lost her vigor like now? look.

She has been with Alice for so many years, and her feelings are very deep.In addition, although Alice has a bad temper, Alice's anger is precisely aimed at the real culprits. She has never lost her temper for no reason. When she thinks that she has done a good job, Alice has never been stingy with rewards. .

If a host can still be considered right and wrong, not stingy, and even as beautiful as a painting, then it is really good =, so Laura has never had any complaints against Alice. Seeing Alice like this, she is I really feel bad.

"Your Highness, have you been bullied?" Laura looked even more embarrassed than Alice.

Alice looked at her silently, and silently shed a tear.

A person who is always arrogant can only shed tears silently one day. It must be more pitiful than heart-piercing howls. Laura couldn't help comforting her: "Don't be afraid, life will get better, yours. Things will get better soon."

Alice finally spoke, but her tone was extremely sensitive: "You are here for my business, right? My father asked you to come? But how does he know where I am?"

In fact, there was no need for Laura to answer, Alice had already guessed all about it.

If they appeared because of Alice, it would only prove two possibilities: one is that her good father seems to still care about her, so he silently sent someone to follow her, so he knew to come here to save her; The good father seemed to be doing it for her own good, colluding with King Aldrich to cure her bad temper.

But are these two possibilities really fatherly love?

If someone is really sent to follow her, don't they know how desolate she looks like living and sleeping along the way?Didn't you see her miserable life in a poor house where she couldn't even show her face after she arrived in Campbell Kingdom?How could he bear to let her live this kind of life for so long?Doesn't he regret putting her to a horrible strange beggar?

What kind of concern is this kind of concern?

She doesn't need it!

It would be even more ridiculous if it was conspiring with King Aldrich to control her temper.

According to his father's thoughts, since he let her marry Aldrich and handed her over to Aldrich, he must want her to live with Aldrich for the rest of his life.

However, she has never seen a father helping his son-in-law to frustrate his daughter.

She thought that after going through that kidnapping, her father would not be impatient with her, and yelling at her was just an illusion, but in the end it was all fake, he was still the same person, and he was still the one who made her want to shout for help to the people around her her people.

Why did her mother die early? If her mother hadn't died early, she would never have faced the current state of isolation and helplessness.

She questioned Laura indifferently while weeping.

Laura was afraid of her, and quickly told all she knew.

After learning all the truth, Alice froze for a long time, and suddenly continued to confirm with a half-smile: "So he is in collusion with King Aldrich, right?"

Laura had never seen such a frightening expression on Alice's face before, her lips turned white instantly, she didn't dare to speak at all, she only dared to close her eyes and nod.

Well, it turned out to be the most disgusting of the two possibilities.

Alice raised her hand and touched Laura's shoulder, barely retaining her senses and said, "It's okay, don't be afraid. You... just pretend that nothing happened today."

Laura's body was trembling, and Alice was afraid that she would talk nonsense because she was afraid, so she was ruthlessly distracted and threatened: "Really pretend that nothing happened, otherwise not only will I be angry, but the news of you revealing everything will fall to Austria Derich and my father, the two of them will punish you even more."

After threatening, she couldn't stay any longer, and staggered home.

After returning, she spent a long time rereading what Laura had said, making sure that there were no missing details.

What Laura said is actually simple, but Alice's father and Aldridge agreed to set back Alice's bad temper and let Alice know how to live a peaceful life, but this "frustration" should not last too long. To make a quick decision, the latest node is Aldrich's birthday. On that day, Aldrich must announce Alice's status as the noble queen of the Kingdom of Campbell.

Laura and the others came this time because they were getting closer to the final node, so they came to remind Aldrich again, and also warned Aldrich not to go too far.

Because at the beginning Aldrich confidently told Alice's father that it would take less than two weeks to take Alice.

Seeing that it had been so long, Alice's father couldn't sit still, so he specially sent someone to remind him.

Going back to Laura's words this time, Alice seems to see that her father also has concerns about her safety and cares about her. He is not completely free from worries about the future, but... she will not complain much because of this. .

Really, why did you do this to her?You can beat her and scold her, why do you want to do this?

She did not do well enough to disappoint him, but couldn't he be a little more patient with her?

He is her closest relative, why did he push her into the abyss with his own hands?

The feeling of suffocation became heavier and heavier, and Alice couldn't shed tears.

She used to dislike many people and things, but at this moment, her world has become only one person with a hideous face, and that is her father.

She even thought that Aldrich had become cute, because Aldrich seemed to be allowed to be flattened and rounded by her, but she had lived with her father for so many years, and she already knew that she communicated with her father. not coming.

She didn't want to communicate anymore, because he unilaterally cut off the connection in this regard, and she didn't deserve her to think about communicating.

He is aloof, always looking down on her, and the thought and energy he spends on her on an average day is not as good as Aldrich.

It's ridiculous. It's really ridiculous for a father and daughter to do this.
