The gods crowned her [Famous Book]

After this night, Kevin seems to be deliberately avoiding Ivy and never meeting her.

Sophia explained that the young master has been busy with the management of the estate recently. A group of tenants will collectively pay the rent this week. In addition, he also has to worry about buying the hunting grounds of the Marquess of Canterbury.

According to her, the Marquis has been short of money recently and is eager to sell this forest that has been passed down for generations.

And Master Kevin, like his father, has the extremely keen business sense of a falcon. He made a decisive move and bought this property that everyone envied before everyone heard the news.

So it seemed logical that he never showed his face in the castle.

But Ivy estimated that Kevin was really busy with affairs.Because Alice has never mentioned him, otherwise, as usual, she would praise her brother in front of her.

She stayed in Mankasi for about three or four days. Due to the continuous rain, she had to stay in the castle for a long time, playing charades and other games with a group of maids.

Alice and Kevin went out to attend their cousin's wedding in Southampton, saying they would be back in two days, and asked Ivy to wait for them in the castle.

But although it was a bit lonely, the days without the old duke were refreshing, playing the piano with nothing to do, singing some Scottish folk songs with the organ accompaniment with Sofia and the others, it was also happy.

Because she was tired from playing, she went to bed early that day, and Meimei fell asleep after the candle was extinguished.

She even dreamed of the plot in the Gothic novel, where the handsome pale prince was locked in a dark and gloomy castle by an evil wizard, and he could not see the light all year round.

Suddenly one day, the door broke open, and bright white sunlight slanted in, covering his entire body.

The prince opened his eyes, but saw a princess in riding clothes rushing forward with a sword, and cut off the wizard's head with a single blow. Just when the prince thought he was redeemed and opened his arms towards her, his wrists were locked by the icy shackles again, and he moved again. no.

The princess smiled instantly on her blood-splattered face, looking down at the stunned prince condescendingly, smiling like a dying rose in the middle of the night.

"I'm not here to save you." Her pupils glowed a strange scarlet, "I'm just here to pull you to sink together."

"Ivy? Wellesley!"

A loud shout suddenly hit the ground like thunder, and fell into Ivy's dazed ears.

This was the first time she had heard someone call her by her first name, and she usually called her "Miss Mornington" by her family title out of respect.

It sounded like the owner of the voice was very angry, even angry.

"Miss Ivy, Miss Ivy!" She hadn't recovered from the dream, Sophia hurried upstairs and ran into her room, put her coat on in a hurry, dense beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, her eyes were wide open, A closer look is full of fear.

Ivy had never seen Sophia like this before, and said in a panic as she tied her belt, "The Duke seems to be very angry, and he must leave Mankasli overnight!"

?

Ivy couldn't help but a big question mark popped up in her heart, and quickly recalled her past experience, and she didn't seem to offend this stubborn old man much.

Even if he contradicted him a few words, he shouldn't make the move to drive her away overnight.

"I'm really, really sorry, but the duke wants you to leave as soon as possible without any delay. Forgive me, I can only follow orders."

Sofia urged her impatiently, quickly packed the suitcase in her hands, and dragged her to run downstairs together.

Sure enough, the old prince was pacing at the stairs, like a huge shadow shrouded in the corner of the corridor, and standing by the dark window, he looked like a man-eating beast.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the beast immediately turned its head back, staring fiercely at the unknown Ivy with its lion-like eyeballs, and opened its snow-white fangs, looking extraordinarily eerie in the dark night.

"You unforgivable little liar! A poor and white girl from a poor family who has no money in her hands. Having no money is the most shameful act in the world. This duke advises you to quickly find a poor coachman to marry! "

Sophia behind her couldn't help trembling, and her teeth were chattering.

It turned out that this was the reason why he drove himself away in the middle of the night. In his eyes, the poor were not worthy of staying in Mankas, so she should be driven out as it should be.

Seeing that she was unexpectedly calm, the old prince couldn't help making a terrible grunt in his throat, like a boa constrictor spitting out a letter, and shouted furiously: "You shameless savage girl, your parents should have given birth to you for being such a slut! I am ashamed to be a wife, but she shamelessly seduced Prince August, behaved vulgarly and disrespected the elders, this duke really regrets not seeing through you earlier and kicking you out!"

"Then you have seen through it now." Ivy calmly caught his angry eyes, stepped up the steps and walked out the door, and replied calmly, "You already know that I am a brutal, shameless, watery girl, congratulations All my faults have been exposed. But I am sorry to tell you that I have no intention of changing."

"Also, even if what you said is right, it's a pity that even if you are the Duke of Clarence, you can't control the girls of the Mornington family."

When she was about to leave the gate, she turned around and added one last sentence.Then she turned around and left with her suitcase, even if the old duke said something bitterly, she couldn't hear her anyway.

In the middle of the night, the castle is like a dormant dragon, swallowing the night covered by clouds, but Ivy has no time to take another look. The most important thing right now is to catch the carriage at the post station and quickly return to her home in London.
