[Phantom of the Opera] Lover

Chapter 20

Lance had never seen her like this, and whispered, " What's wrong, dear?”

"May I tell you the truth? I must tell you the truth —— you don't know, how bad I am these days —— oh, "she said, suddenly crying, surprised surprised," my father is missing, he is my favorite, I is the world, I would rather be myself, do not want him to fall to the boundless sea, eat bad sleep bad..... I know women drink not decent, but don't drink, I really can't relieve......"

Half of the words were true, and Lance immediately believed them. He took her shoulder and whispered, " Why didn't you tell me that before? I'm not the kind of unreasonable person.”

Lizzie cried more and more bitterly. " I don't know how to tell you. I always think you dislike me as a countryman, but, have you ever thought... "Alas, if he can spit at this time, it must be very interesting," people's origin is impossible to choose! How can you blame me for this? This is like the rich man asking the poor why they do not eat bread, no reason!”

Lance could not hear her all, and his attention was focused on her red lips. Why had he not found her so charming and charming before?

No, he had found it before, but he was a coward, afraid to kiss her head.

Now, he knew her rough and fierce, but a broken shell, he dared to appreciate her beauty.

Before she knew it, Lance reached up Lizzie's cheek and gently wiped away her tears. " Well, don't cry. It's all my fault. I know some wives will steal brandy at home, it's not a big deal, I make a fuss.”

Lizzie immediately fell in his arms —— she just word poor, this fool do not answer, she can not go down.

She hoped he would take the initiative, preferably kiss her directly and stop her lying.

Lance really wanted to kiss her.

For the first time in his life, he felt so strongly to kiss a man or the wife he was forced to marry.

In Paris, men tend to love women more than wives, and wives are not jealous of the mistresses, but meet them and become Allies with them, because when husbands have mistresses, they are more generous to meet her needs.⑵

But he had a kind of love throb to his wife.

Lance stared at Lizzie's face, only hating why he hadn't noticed her charm earlier.

When Lizzie saw that he was about to kiss, he closed his eyes and his eyelashes trembled.

Generally, she gets a kiss in less than three seconds. Lance took a step back and did not kiss him.

As he dragged himself, the impulse to scrape his ear reappeared.

Lizzie inhaled deeply and quietly opened one eye to see what he was doing, but he had fainted on the ground.

Lizzie was surprised, and quickly crouched down to test his breath. Fortunately, he's still alive. As she relaxed, she wondered how he fainted at this critical moment?

Just then, a low, cold, fierce voice sounded in her ear, scaring her back and nearly knocking the back of her head into the railing of the hallway.

"Mrs.De Charlotte, if I remember correctly, I say that I want you to divorce Mr.Earl, not with him, and to go to the next level. If you do, go to your poor father.”

Lizzie is really fed up with his fantastic appearance.

But the relief was not to confuse Lance.

"When I find dad," she cursed, " I'll kill you both!”

She panicked, "I know... but he is my husband... you have to give me some time to say goodbye to him......"

"There is no farewell in the conditions.”

"alright."She said timidly, putting out her handkerchief to her eyes, and wondered uncertain whether she would cry, pretend to be strong, or let the ghost come out to help and carry Lance to the bed, which she could not lift alone.

"That.... I can ask, how did you make him faint?"This words, she felt the atmosphere suddenly nervous a lot, hurriedly defended," Oh, I did not blame you —— I just want to know, this to his body harm ——"

If there is harm, she called the doctor to come over to see, drag into a serious illness is not good, after all, she paid for treatment.

The man misunderstood her meaning once again, and replied in a cold voice, " Don't worry, madam. Just a little hypnotic means, will not harm Mr.Count's body.”

"So you can hypnotize," she thought, " then why don't you just hypnotize Lance to divorce me, so I don't have to rack my brains to cheat him.”

Of course, she just thought about it and did not dare to say it.

She had a vague feeling that her future life would be disturbed by the ghost, but she was not disgusted, or even expected.

She also did not understand why she expected it, perhaps because she was already tired of living the same life.

No wonder in some third-rate novels, the ladies are always fallen in love with outlaws.

Even if they know that the outlaws are dangerous and cold, that their heart is already penetrated by the venom of sin, and that there is corrupted blood flowing in their body, they are still attracted by the free, wild, unscrupulous temperament in them.

Think later, this person may have been watching her in the dark, someone offended her, he will punish that person, she and lance to a little closer, he suddenly appeared, frighten her jump —— like raising a restless snake, even know it won't shoot venom at you, but still somehow sting you —— stimulation, more exciting.

But if she could, she wanted him to go to hell and see the real ghost.
