MTL - Twenty Seven Years-Chapter 53 respectively

  Chapter 53 respectively

Carmine has been in control of the situation for dinner today, hoping that Veraker will speak less and avoid showing more omissions as much as possible, and Elizabeth will be caught by the clues. At this time, Carmine will naturally not agree to her request: "What else is there to say? ?”

   "I only have one request." Elizabeth insisted.

   Carmine has not met a child who dared to be so stubborn in front of him for many years: "Impossible. I will give you one hundred thousand gold grams, you go."

   "I want to talk to you a few words." Elizabeth ignored Carmine and looked directly at Verak.

   "Okay." Before Carmine got angry, Verac also looked directly at Elizabeth and agreed to her request, "Father, let's have a private chat for the last time."

  Carmine looked at Veraker, only to see Veraker's eyes were firm, and he had already made up his mind.

   "Go." After a while, Carmine agreed.

  Verak got up: "Go out and talk."

  Elizabeth followed Veraker out of the mansion and walked down the street.

   "I'm not Chris."

   "You're not Chris."

  On the lonely streets of the wealthy district, Verac and Elizabeth, who were walking slowly side by side, said in unison.

   "I know you've already seen it, so there's no need for me to continue to hide it." Verak put his hands in his pockets, calmly, "Before you ask me for answers, can I ask you a question?"

"what?"

   "How did you know I'm not Chris?" Verac wanted to learn a lesson from Elizabeth and avoid risks in this area in the future.

   "Feeling." Elizabeth said.

  Verak smiled helplessly: "That's really invulnerable...you can ask me what you want to know."

  Elizabeth did confirm that Verac was not Chris, but it was still a little hard to accept hearing his admission: "Chris..."

   "Dead." Verak said.

  Elizabeth had a sore nose, and tears began to roll in her eyes. She pursed her lips firmly and did not cry.

   "Probably at the time when I cut off contact with you." Verac announced the result very calmly, which was no different from a bolt from the blue to Elizabeth.

   "Because of what?" Elizabeth choked up and asked.

"I'm sorry, I can't tell." Verak shook his head slightly, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart, although Elizabeth also explained that she didn't know what Chris was doing when she asked this sentence, "I hope you don't investigate , don’t try to bring up this thing that can’t be made public yet.”

"why?"

Verak raised his head slightly, and looked at the moon half covered by dark clouds: "He is doing a great thing, and that thing is extremely dangerous. The reason why he never told you is that he doesn't want you to be involved in it. harm."

   "But he..." Tears still fell from Elizabeth's flawless face after all.

"Thankfully, he is not alone in doing this great thing, there are hundreds of others with the same passion as he, who are risking their lives to change the world into what they think is right "Verak's eyes reflected the moonlight, "So I don't tell you, it's for your own good, and for those people's good."

   "I want to know, even if there is danger." Elizabeth turned her head to look at Veraker, acting as determined as she was in the restaurant just now.

  Verak did not waver: "You will know...if there is success, then one day."

   "Then who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who I am in this city." Verak lowered his gaze. "To everyone, I am Chris. Only today, and you denied my identity for the first time. I hope you don't take this Let the matter spread and keep this secret for us.”

   Elizabeth did not speak.

   "I will send it here, Miss Elizabeth." Walking to the intersection, Verac stood still, "Finally, on behalf of Mr. Chris, I would like to express my most sincere wishes to you. I wish you a happy life and wish you all the best."

  Elizabeth did not leave for a long time: "This is the last time we meet."

   "Elizabeth, I hope you are doing well." Verac knew that Elizabeth was showing her true feelings, and at the last moment he still regarded himself as Chris.

   "You too." Elizabeth crossed the intersection, walking farther and farther alone holding her skirt.

  Villac looked at her back until he couldn't see her before turning back to the Thomas family mansion.

  The dishes in the restaurant have not been touched. Carmine, Meera, Kellerman, and Fletcher are waiting for Verac in the hall.

   "Father." Verak came to Carmine.

   "What did you say?" Carmine asked blankly.

   "Elizabeth tried to save me. After I spoke clearly with her, she gave up and promised never to have any contact with me again." Verac replied.

  Carmine remained serious after hearing this: "What didn't she see?"

   "No." Verak said with certainty.

   "Let's eat." Carmine still recognized Veraker's ability. It was indeed a problem that no one could predict in advance that the previous charity dinner went wrong. "Kellerman, tell Julia to come down."

   Kellerman got up from the sofa in the lobby and went upstairs to find Julia.

   After the family experienced an unpleasant incident, they enjoyed dinner again. Because of her young age, Julia was sent away frequently by Carmine this evening. She was so hungry that her chest stuck to her back, and now she was the first to eat.

  Seeing that his daughter was starving, Carmine rarely smiled: "Eat slowly."

  The crisis was lifted, and Mrs. Mela and Kellerman also felt relaxed, and the family restored their happy atmosphere.

  Verak glanced at Fletcher, who was waiting aside, Fletcher bent over and rubbed his knees from time to time, and it seemed that he hadn't recovered yet.

  Since Elizabeth doesn't know about the Equal Society and is willing to stop interfering in the Thomas family's private affairs, Verac doesn't have to escape early, and he will have more time to make Fletcher suffer.

  Villac was the only one in the Thomas family. After enjoying the dinner, everyone went to their own private affairs as usual, and Verac also went back to the room to rest.

  Too many things happened today, which made him unable to calm down for a long time.

  One is Colin's brotherhood. The second is revenge against Fletcher. Three is Chris and Elizabeth.

  In the cold, the brotherhood of Colin and the love between Chris and Elizabeth seemed so precious, which touched Verac deeply.

  He knew that he couldn't have any soft-heartedness and hesitation in such a dangerous situation, but he couldn't help but have an unspeakable thought.

  So many people in the Equality Association are fighting for equality, dignity, and rights for people like him at the expense of their lives.

   He should try to do something for equality.
