Chapter 310: The Sickly Illegitimate Daughter Who Everyone Dislikes vs. the Elegant and Crazy Housekeeper (5)
The next day.
After waking up, Lu Cha came downstairs and went to the restaurant on the first floor of the castle to have breakfast.
Maybe the news about using light magic yesterday had spread, and no maid came to bother her anymore. They all bowed their heads respectfully and served her, not daring to say a word.
Lu Cha enjoyed the food contentedly and did not notice the fear in the maid's eyes.
After breakfast.
Lu Cha packed up simply and walked out of the castle.
The coachman had already driven the carriage and was waiting in the yard.
Seeing Lucha coming out, Xizel, who was standing next to the carriage, opened the door:
"To prevent what happened yesterday from happening again, I will escort Miss An to the hospital today."
He extended his hand like a gentleman and let Lu Cha take it.
However, the girl did not move.
Xizel tilted his head slightly, as if asking silently.
Lu Cha was honest: "I can't go up."
She was wearing a puffy court dress today, and her heels were a few centimeters higher than yesterday, making it very inconvenient for her to move.
The system doesn't understand: [Then why do you wear it? ]
[It looks good.] Lucha said confidently.
The skirt is inlaid with sparkling diamonds, she likes it!
“…”
It's unnecessary to ask!
Xizel smiled helplessly and wanted to help Lu Cha up.
"Then please, Mr. Butler, hold me."
Lu Cha opened her arms with a smile on her face.
That bright and sweet smile is brighter than today's warm sunshine.
Xizel paused, then picked her up like a princess and said, "It's my pleasure."
Lu Cha just hugged Xizel's neck.
The man's slender fingers passed through her hair from behind, and with a light pressure, he let her lean on his shoulder.
"Miss An, be careful not to bump your head."
The voice above her head was low, mellow and soft, like the gentle spring rain, lingering in Lu Cha's ears and stirring her heart.
Smelling the elegant woody scent on the man, Lu Cha narrowed her eyes slightly.
The little villain seems to be very good at it.
Xizel leaned over and stepped into the carriage, carefully putting the girl down in his arms, as if he was treating a fragile and precious treasure.
Just as he was about to leave, his tie was grabbed.
Cesar leaned forward uncontrollably.
It was only an inch away from Lucha's cheek.
The warm breaths intertwined together, raising the temperature in the car a little.
"Is Mr. Butler like this to everyone?"
"No, only to you." Xizel spoke softly. Because he was so close, it seemed as if he would kiss Lu Cha in the next second.
"I'm following Miss An's instructions and learning to take care of you."
Seeing that his eyes were frank and he was not guilty or flustered about lying, Lu Cha let go of his tie with satisfaction and took back the sharp Western-style knife hidden in his sleeve.
"Remember to prepare tea and desserts in the carriage next time."
"When you come back from the hospital, find me some introductory magic books."
"I want beef for lunch."
Cesare nodded in agreement.
After closing the car door, I suddenly realized a problem.
Miss An, are you using him as a servant?
-
Holy Light Hospital is the best private hospital in the southern region of Guangming Continent, serving only the nobility.
Lu Cha followed Xizel to the single luxury ward on the top floor of the hospital.
The man lying on the hospital bed was about fifty years old, with neatly combed blond hair and deep green eyes half-opened, as if he had no strength left.
Lu Cha couldn't help but glance at the door.
The glass on the door vaguely reflected her black hair and black eyes.
The original owner didn't inherit any of Duke Rhodes' genes!
"Mr. Rhodes, Miss An is here."
After saying that, Xizel tactfully left the ward, leaving the space to Lu Cha and Rhodes.
Rhodes looked at the girl standing at the door.
When he touched Lucha's black hair, disgust flashed across his eyes, and he waved at her lovingly:
"Child, come and sit."
"You and your mother look so much alike." Rhodes said with emotion:
"When I was ordered by the king to inspect the East District, I never imagined that I would meet the love of my life."
"But your mother didn't want to leave her hometown, so I had no choice but to respect her and leave on my own. I didn't even know she was pregnant at the time."
"I'm an unfit husband and an unfit father."
"If I hadn't heard from others that during this year's East District Adult Magic Test, a black-haired girl tested positive for a high affinity for the element of light, their description would have made her look very similar to your mother."
"I'm afraid I still don't know you exist..."
Rhodes sighed deeply, covered his face, and fell into self-blame.
Lu Cha just felt it was ironic.
The original owner's mother, An Li, was a light magician and a famous beauty in the East District.
Because of her black hair and black eyes, she had been questioned a lot, but Enri relied on her strength to prove herself one by one.
That year, Rhodes went to the East District and encountered a group of robbers on the way, and was separated from the knight.
An Li saved him.
Not only did Rhodes covet Enli's beauty, but in order to have another light magician under his command, he pretended to be a down-and-out bachelor and used sweet words to deceive Enli.
He even directed and acted in a play himself, not hesitating to get seriously injured, in order to win An Li's sympathy.
Enli fell into Rhodes' trap step by step, and they were in love for a while.
Until she learned from others about Rhodes' true identity and the fact that he was married and had children.
An Li couldn't stand the deception, and couldn't accept being Rhodes' lover. Even though she was pregnant, she cruelly broke off the relationship with him.
Rod begged for reconciliation but to no avail, and left angrily, thinking that one day An Li would come to him because she couldn't get through the hard times.
As a result, An Li raised the original owner alone and never left the East District until the day of her death.
The reason why Rhodes took the original owner back now was not only because he saw the original owner's value and could bring glory to the family.
The most important thing is that his heart cannot hold on for long. Only with the blessing of the God of Light can he heal and survive.
Otherwise, he would not recognize the original owner at all.
Lu Cha withdrew his thoughts and suddenly felt keenly that someone was staring at him from behind.
She didn't look back.
Outside the ward, there was no one else except César who was waiting.
Oh no.
The little villain is actually peeking!
