The Sensory Animals of Ston Hill

Chapter 70 William's Thoughts

William picks out a good husband for Grace.

"It's my lieutenant, Lieutenant Oliver, as you have seen, a young man of good character and good looks... He's shot in the leg and hurt his ligaments and can't ride a horse--but don't worry, Oliver walks Not lame, not ugly..." He spoke very slowly, talking to Allen without looking at him.

Alan Stone couldn't tell what he was looking at, maybe he was just in a daze.He also heard that every time William mentioned Grace's name, there would be a small pause between his words, and then, as if he had held the name in his mouth for a long time, he spit it out gently.

"...I originally planned to recommend Oliver to the garrison, which is safe and has many opportunities for promotion. But now I have been transferred to the capital, and I can take him with me. The capital guard is also a good place...I didn't show him Grace I only described Grace's character to him, and he... likes her very much. This is very reliable, showing that he is not the kind of superficial young man, and can prevent many... troubles after marriage. Oliver also never Graduated from the military school, his ancestors have won a cross, and his father has a knight title..."

Alan Stone couldn't help interrupting him: "Don't you value those titles?" His tone was so mocking that he surprised himself.

William Ston finally glanced at him, feeling hesitant as if he had just been woken up from sleep, "...these are not bad for Grace. After she... gets married, she will have a lot more convenience in social aspects, and she can also get More respect..."

It was so painful, Alan Stone felt that the whole room was filled with pain, overflowing from William's mouth, overflowing from his chest, making him more breathless than the thick fog on the battlefield.

William was still talking about the lieutenant's family situation: the family was rich, with a married sister and no elder brother. Although he could not provide a luxurious life, he had no worries about food and clothing.

"I will prepare a dowry for Grace, enough for them to live well in the future...Of course, I haven't told Oliver this yet, everything will be discussed after Grace meets him."

He didn't tell the lieutenant that the Grace he was talking about was extraordinarily beautiful, or that if he married the lady, he would get a lot of money.He has considered all aspects, only to find a truly upright and reliable person for Grace, who can truly love her.

Alan Stone really wanted to ask him loudly: "Then do you love her yourself!"

William Ston didn't notice the turmoil in his brother's heart, "I want you to speak nice words in front of mother, and give Grace an identity card... So many years have passed, and mother has a new marriage, the past hatred may be That's gone... of course, Oliver doesn't care about that - I wouldn't appreciate him if he did - but it would be better for Grace to marry with a surname, even though we all know she doesn't. Not really a servant..."

When he said this, Alan Stone suddenly glanced at him, then lowered his head again.

"...Grace's reading and writing ability, as well as her character and self-cultivation, have far surpassed most noble ladies. But that kind of status is always undignified. Although our family is not noble, the surname 'Ston' It still has some weight in our local area, if Grace can—"

Alan Stone couldn't take it anymore. He sat on a chair, resting his forehead with one hand, covering his expression by the way, and interrupted William's words in a low voice: "It's too late, William... Grace doesn't need it anymore." 'Ston' surname."

William asked alertly, "What do you mean?"

Alan Stone suddenly felt angry, hating why Grace entrusted him with this difficult job, and also hating William, why he didn't know anything about it, after he... kissed Grace!

Grace asked him to help lie in front of William, but why should he obey her orders?

"Because that bastard Arundel recommended Grace to His Majesty as his mistress!" He shouted happily, full of the pleasure of revenge in his heart.

But he immediately regretted it.After he finished speaking, the faces of the dead on the battlefield were not as terrifying as William's.
