After the two of them had packed up, they asked the maid to bring some more safety measures and put them on the bedside for use. Alan glanced at the newspaper placed on the bedside at that time.
He looked at the photo of the Prime Minister, then turned to look at Meryl next to him.
A strange feeling gradually arose in my heart.
Now that Meryl has taken off her makeup, of course she has nothing to do with the person in the photo.
"Change your look to this tomorrow!"
Alan pointed to the photo in the newspaper.
…
In just two days, the crew seemed to have changed a little, but also seemed to have not changed.
During the day, Allen continued to shoot as usual and was still as strict with Meryl. If she didn't perform well, he would still quarrel with her.
Returning to the manor at night...
Alan seemed like a different person again, with a gentle tone, directing Meryl to play various roles and change into sets of uniforms.
…
Afternoon of December 20th.
Alan, who had just finished work, took a car back to the manor. As soon as he entered the hall, he saw an old acquaintance whom he hadn't seen for some time.
Butler Capel!
…
"Why did Sir Capell have time to come to my place today? Could it be that His Highness is here?"
Alan said this half-jokingly, and glanced at Huth who was chatting with Capel next to him.
Hut shook his head slightly and pointed to the invitation on the table.
When Alan saw the beautifully wrapped invitation, he was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that Christmas was almost here.
"Your Excellency... Huth said you were working, so I didn't want to disturb you over there, so I waited here for a while. This time I came here to confirm whether you would attend the private banquet held by His Highness on the evening of the 23rd."
Capel picked up the invitation, bent down slightly and handed it to Allen with both hands.
After receiving the invitation, Alan didn't rush to check it. He first glanced at the thing on it that looked like a receipt.
This thing comes in two copies along with the invitation. Important banquets invite guests a few days in advance to leave them ample time to prepare. If they confirm that they will attend the banquet, the guests must also sign a "receipt". The banquet organizer will eventually count the actual number of people attending the banquet, and preparations must be made in advance based on the number of people. At that time, the receipt will also serve as a security certificate.
Not everyone can attend a private party like the one hosted by Charles.
When Alan heard that Charles was holding another party, his heart was trembling...
…
But I have to go. The invitation was delivered personally by Charles' butler. Is there any need to explain how important it is?
Alan raised his right hand. Capel was slightly startled, then quickly took out the pen from his coat pocket and handed it to Alan with both hands.
He didn't expect that Alan signed the invitation so decisively without even reading the contents.
It seems that His Highness was right...
The person most loyal to Your Highness in the entire kingdom is the Earl of Carmarthen.
…
After signing the "receipt" to confirm his attendance at Charles's party, Capel did not stay long. He had to rush back to report overnight. If he stayed any longer, it would get dark, and the journey from Carmarthen to London at night would not be easy.
After seeing Capel off, Allen finally had time to open the invitation and take a look.
The date is December 23, two days before Christmas.
Because it is Charles' private party, it can only be held on this day. On Christmas Eve, the entire royal family will celebrate together.
Place……
Seeing the location of the banquet, Alan raised his eyebrows slightly.
This place...
It was indeed a private party, and Charles directly set the venue at his favorite Highgrove Manor.
When you first hear the name, it seems very ordinary, but this manor is Charles's favorite, as is known to everyone inside.
Charles bought this place only a few years ago. Everything is newly built and covers an area of...
4.5 million square meters...
If we want to give a rough description of the area covered, we can use Tiananmen Square as a reference.
The area of Highgrove Manor is roughly equivalent to 12 Tiananmen Squares combined.
This area is almost as big as a small county town!
This is the place that Charles spent a lot of effort to decorate as his wedding room. It is his real home.
Being able to hold a private banquet here, it is conceivable that not many guests will be invited, but each of them is his confidant, or close minister!
…
Putting down the invitation, Allen thought for a moment and said to Huth, "Put the deed they brought back a few days ago in the most gorgeous gift box for me. I want to use it when the time comes!"
"I understand, Master!"
…
On the evening of December 23, more than 100 kilometers east of Carmarthen is Highgrove Manor, which lies between Carmarthen and London.
With the help of the evening glow, Alan looked at the endless white world as far as the eye could see.
Under the snow marks, one can vaguely see the interior layout of the entire manor.
A huge garden covering over four million square meters!
How fucking arrogant is this?
This is a scale that those American bumpkins dare not even imagine.
Compared to this place, the Hill family's manor was like the difference between a thatched house and a four-story villa with a garden.
There is simply no comparison.
It would take several minutes to drive from the front door to the downstairs of the owner's house even if you stepped on the accelerator.
…
Finally they arrived at the gate of Charles's manor. Capell saw the license plate number from afar. He brought a young man waiting beside the car and personally opened the door for Allen.
Allen smiled at Capel, and handed the small wooden box with gold edges in his left hand to Capel and said, "Okay... give this to Your Highness. You don't need to take care of me here."
…
Then, Allen ignored Capel and turned to look at the young man who accompanied Capel to pick up the car.
The boy has a slightly brownish golden hair and looks very handsome. His overall facial features are somewhat similar to Alan. If you say they are cousins, I guess people would believe it.
"Should I call you Spencer? Or Charles? Huh?!"
As Alan spoke, he clenched his right fist and pointed it at the handsome boy's stomach, ready to give him a hard hit.
"I was wrong, I was wrong! Alan... I can't beat you... There are guests, there are guests! Give me some face."
…
The brown-haired golden retriever started to hide when he saw Alan's movements.
If he is in front of other people, he is still very tough.
In the whole of Britain, there are few people he can't afford to offend!
The brother-in-law of His Royal Highness Charles, the younger brother of the Princess, the eldest son of the Spencer family, and the future Earl Spencer.
Isn’t this series of titles convincing enough?
What's more, this guy's name is even Charles Spencer.
Same name as his brother-in-law!
But even with such a cool identity, he was still very afraid of Allen.
Because the two families are in-laws, when Spencer first met Allen in his youth, he asked Allen to call him uncle...
The two of them are only three years apart in age, and he is only slightly older than Alan.
Spencer, who was feeling very proud at that time, happened to meet Allen, who had just arrived, was not good at the language and was depressed all day long.
Is it okay to be taken advantage of by such a little brat?
Alan pinned the guy to the ground and beat him hard.
From then on, Allen would beat him up every time he saw him, from his teenage years until Allen joined the army, and only then did Spencer feel relieved.
The relationship between the two is not only relatives, but also hammer friends...
Allen was responsible for the hammer and Spencer was responsible for the beating.
