Seeing Isis's greasy smile, César began to consider whether to stroke her hair.So he took another two steps forward, and then took out a velvet jewelry box from his pocket, motioning for Isis to hold out her hand.

Seeing that the man's eyes showed that he could not refuse, Isis finally took the box.The jewelry box looks like it has seen some age, and the contents are light.For a while, Isis couldn't guess Cesare's intentions.

"Open it and have a look." Cecilia on the side also showed a curious expression.

Lifting the metal buckle, a string of black pearl bracelets lay quietly inside.Each black pearl is large and full, reflecting the metallic luster of sea blue in the sunlight.At the same time, with the rotation of the pearl, the metallic luster is constantly changing.

"This is the black pearl of Tahiti." Cecilia was a little surprised, "How did you get it, Lord Earl?"

Seeing his cousin's expression, someone who didn't know anything at all asked curiously, "Is it worth it?"

Hearing Isis's question, Cecilia couldn't help showing contempt for her.The cheap pearl necklaces in our place are only a few hundred pieces at most, the girl who was looked at guilty whispered.

"The mother body that gave birth to this kind of pearl is a precious black saucer mussel. Usually, only half of a hundred black saucer mussels that can cultivate pearls can successfully cultivate pearls. In the end, only five can be called perfect. , so every black pearl is extremely precious." Cecilia, who couldn't stand Isis' curious baby's eyes, explained.

No wonder Captain Jack's pirate ship is called the Black Pearl, so it is.Isis nodded after listening to Cecilia's detailed explanation.Please forgive the girl whose brain and ordinary people are not on the same circuit ==.

"But having said that, why did you give her such an expensive gift?" Cecilia couldn't help asking, even though she had tacitly allowed César to approach Isis.

"I didn't buy this, it's my mother's relic." César looked at the girl in front of him with a smile.His mother once told him that black pearls can bring good luck to people, which is not false at all.

It is estimated that even Isis herself does not remember the scene when she first met her.That was when his father brought him into the palace for the first time after his mother passed away.The sadness of losing her mother, being ridiculed by other children... It was in such a situation that I met her when I was young.

"Hey, don't you feel ashamed, there are so many people bullying a child." Although it was a child's voice, it sounded very imposing, "Stop it."

"Your Highness Isis, it's not me, it's him." Seeing that the girl was really angry, the boys blamed each other, and then dispersed.

"It's disgusting. Are you okay?" The boy who had fallen on the ground stood up silently.

Seeing the rumored beloved princess for the first time, the boy quickly lowered his head and looked a little at a loss.Following his father to such a luxurious palace, his father told him not to run around, but in the end...

"Princess, don't run away. If you fall down, it will be a disaster." Just as he was about to step forward to see the boy's face clearly, there was a shout from behind.

"Oops. This is for you." The girl's complexion changed, and she quickly stuffed something into the boy's hand, threatening, "You accepted my bribe, don't say you've seen me."

Looking at the back of the girl running away, the boy spread out his palm with some doubts, a black pearl, the same as the one his mother often carried.At this moment, the bead radiated a charming light in the palm of his hand.

"I remember that my mother seemed to have given me a black pearl." Isis scratched her head, "But it disappeared later." If I had known it was so valuable, I would have kept it. The money-hungry girl regretted it.

"I like it very much." Knowing the value and significance of the bracelet, Isis closed the lid and buckled the clasp.Seriously said, "But this bracelet is too expensive, I can't have it."

Hearing what she said, César couldn't help but frowned.This is a decision he made after a long time of consideration these days.The mother's relic is precious, and Isis is the only one entitled to it.

Just when they were in a stalemate, suddenly a guard in a scarlet jacket hurried over.In addition to the crew, naval soldiers, and the exclusive British Royal Guard on the main ship.

But now, Sisi recognized at a glance that this was a soldier belonging to the British Royal Guard.After saluting Isis, he handed a roll of parchment to César.

After reading it carefully, the man sneered and said, "You go back first, and I'll be there later." He refolded the scroll and handed it back to the soldier.

"This is not a simple gift." Looking back at the girl who stretched out her hand unyieldingly, César felt a little helpless, "I hope you can put it on for me and never take it off again."

"Don't bring such a forced delivery." Ignoring Isis's anxious footsteps behind, César turned and walked in the opposite direction.He has important things to do now, and he just took this time to let Isis think clearly.

"Why don't you accept it?" Cecilia's tone was gentle, "You must understand Cecil's intentions!"

The girl looked at the jewelry box in her hand in embarrassment, "Ceciria, it's not that I don't understand, and it's not that I didn't have a little heartbeat, it's just..."

At first, I always thought that I would live as a bystander.Regarding the past that cannot go back, I only hope that my family members can forget the grief of losing their loved ones, and I will work hard to live on.

Slowly feel the love of the family in this world for me, and integrate into it.Just live like this for a lifetime, I really never thought that I could have my own love.

"All encounters in the world are rare reunions. If you like it, don't miss it." Cecilia embraced Isis in her arms.My dear sister, you must be happy.

In the evening, had dinner in the room.Cecilia took Isis to play chess with her.One person holds white pieces, the other holds black pieces, and the two fight fiercely in the 64 black and white grids.

As a result, Isis, who was originally good at chess, had already lost several games in a row. I don't know why she was a little restless tonight.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that the girl's mood was abnormal, Cecilia asked with concern.

"I'm fine, I guess the room is too stuffy." Isis looked at the chessboard intently for a while, picked up her black king and took a step forward to the right, "I'm finally going to win you once."

"Are you really okay?" Cecilia was still a little worried, "Why don't you go to bed early."

Before the words fell, there was a sudden gunshot outside the room.Both Cecilia and Isis were taken aback when they heard the gunshot.After the gunshots, there was a rush of footsteps and the low roar of the two sides fighting.

Not long after, all the sound disappeared again.Isis, who had regained her composure, turned to Cecilia worriedly: "What happened, let's go and see."

"Where are you going?" Just as the two left the room and came to the corridor, they met Mrs. Andrea.

Mrs. Andrea was wearing a silk nightgown and a woolen shawl to keep out the cold, but she didn't seem to be sleepy at all.

"Aunt Liya, do you know what happened?" Isis asked anxiously, "We heard gunshots in the room just now."

"I just received the news that the Earl has just caught some criminals." Mrs. Andrea simply explained, "I happened to come over to see you, don't worry."

Mrs. Andrea's explanation was very simple, but Isis always felt a little uneasy: "Then can I go and see Cesare?" After she finished speaking, she looked at Mrs. Andrea anxiously.

Although the question was used, Mrs. Andrea felt a little headache seeing Isis's insistence.She is well aware of Isis's temper, and once she makes a decision, no one can stop her

"Well, the Earl should be in his own room now. It's late, and you're a girl again, so go early and come back early."

After getting the permission, Isis hurried to the door of César's room. Before she could make a sound, a person came out of the room.

"Your Royal Highness." Abel was César's personal servant, and he was surprised when he saw Isis, "Why are you here?"

"Earl Cesare is inside, right?" Isis asked with a kind smile.

"Yes. It's just that you don't..." Before he finished speaking, Isis walked in impatiently.

Sure enough, within two seconds, Isis' exclamation was heard from inside.Abel said with a faint heart: I just want you to come in later, why didn't you wait for me to finish speaking.

In the room, Isis stood near the door.She covered her face with her hands, a little annoyed: "Why don't you wear a shirt?"

On the other side of the room, César was naked from the upper body, holding a clean shirt in his hand, obviously ready to change.Surprised by Isis, he was not in a hurry: "Isis, this seems to be my room."

"You put on your clothes first." Isis covered her eyes and turned around, turning her back to César, who lacked confidence, and said, "I'm a little worried about you, so I want to come and see you."

"Okay, you can turn around now." César quickly changed his clothes and said to Isis who was standing straight at the door like a pillar.

Covering her flushed face, Isis desperately wanted to cool down the temperature on her face.She turned her back to César to cheer herself up, it doesn't matter, it's just that the upper body is not wearing clothes. There are even streakers on the streets of the 21st century.

After building up her mind, Isis finally turned around.She looked at César, who now looked unharmed.However, when her eyes shifted to the table, the blood-stained bandages and scattered medicine boxes... Isis was stunned.

"You're hurt." At this moment, Isis forgot the shyness just now, she rushed in front of César, unconsciously grabbed the hem of the man's clothes, and asked anxiously.
