Lizzie was shocked. If she had been a devout Catholic, she would have been like God. Unfortunately, she's not. But who would do this good but God? Cathedral of Notre Dame Former Abbey of Saint Remi and Palace of Tau Reims? Unconvinced, she asked Lance tentatively in the evening. If he did it, she thought, she would be kind to him and try not to ride to the streets. But Lance, looking absent-minded, seemed not to hear what she was saying. Strange, he usually to the neighborhood between the trifles, than political news more care —— last time the old lady had an accident, he suspected that she did, fully with her cold war for three days, is still sleeping in the study, although she felt that is not call cold war, call heaven good —— today how to behave so abnormal. She looked at him suspiciously, " What's wrong with you?” Lance said lightly, " Nothing, don't I as you wish?” "I do not understand what you mean.” "Obviously, you hate me and have no feelings for me. I'm a person of knowledge, and I don't want to be annoying. That's it.” "Is it?"Lizzie was skeptical." Do you know the frog is this?” "What frog call?” He frowned, his eyes dazed from false. Looks like it's really not him. Lizzie suddenly lost interest in talking to him: " Nothing, eat your meal.” Lance was even more confused, but she was too lazy to reason. While the oysters, she wondered who else but Lance would do this in Paris. period. She had no friends in Paris, lonely, who would stand up for her, to avoid her. It should be just a coincidence. A week later, however, the "coincidence" happened again, and another lovely enemy was punished. It was a proud and beautiful noble lady, whose name was Oriana, long and stubborn, but Lizzie did not remember. According to Oriana, if Lizzie had not "taken her love," she would have married Lance. The two families have been intermarried for nearly 100 years, and blood is thicker than water. She didn't know that Lance married Lizzie for money, but she thought that Lizzie had deliberately robbed her lover and attacked Lizzie with her everywhere. Lizzie actually likes her, because she added a lot of color to the boring life, until once, the arrogant young lady was angered by her indifferent attitude, blurted out: "really want to know if your father is also so shameless, otherwise how can teach you so ——" Before she was finished, Oriana also realized that —— the war between her and Lizzie should not be involved in her parents. She stared at Lizzie, as if trying to apologize, but Lizzie had turned away and wrote down her name on the paper. But after the "old lady" and "frog call" thing happened, she crossed out her name, afraid of her disgrace —— although do a little narcissistic, but just in case. The little girl was not yet fifteen years old, knew nothing about love, and quarreled with her purely because she could only do it. The life of the noble lady was too boring. But this time, Oriana was punished very special, she received a stack of love letters from Lance. In the first love letter, Lance says to a social butterfly that he felt miserable because he could not support the larger and larger expenses, the property left by his ancestors was disappearing, and he was not willing to buy stocks, bonds, and factories like other degenerate nobles, which was too cheap. If one day, he is reduced to doing business himself, he would rather die. Then he received five thousand francs from the social butterfly. In the second love letter, Lance has sweet words to the social butterfly. The third and fourth... until the tenth, Lance seemed to have emptied the social bank, and he told him sadly that he must marry Lizzie, for the mansion of St. Germain was far beyond the maintenance of tens of thousands of francs. But he was willing to be a social butterfly and not to touch the dirty hybrid. Lizzie knew the letter because, after reading it, she ran angrily to catch Lance. But she failed to catch Lance, so she handed the love letter to Lizzie and blushed and apologized: "I'm sorry, Miss Lizzie, bad about you and your father before. My mother often says that a lady should not judge others casually. I do not know you and your father, but I am very sorry to judge you so hastily. But I know Lance de Charlotte —— very well, "she said angrily." I have to judge him today —— him —— He is the most shameless person!” Lizzie urged her to calm down. The little girl could not calm down, carried the skirt, and paced around the room. " I love him so much! Because I love him so much! He is this —— this —— " because of the curse words poor, the little girl can only angrily stamp her foot. Lizzie had a lot of bad remarks, but she cared little about the excitement, even who her husband was writing love letters to. She only cares about one thing. Who is helping her? The man was calm and rational, and very measured, both at losing her face and getting her due punishment, without appearing too cruel, causing panic and destroying her reputation again. Why did he help her like that? For a moment, she was more curious about this person than about the man behind her father. And he was so clever as to call normal frogs... Can he help her find her father?
