Adela's nap lasted three hours. When she woke up, it was time for afternoon tea. The maid brought a pot of chrysanthemum tea and a plate of chocolate cake to the room. Adela comfortably felt the peaceful moments pass. She enjoyed afternoon tea while letting her maid help her dress, brush her hair, and put on makeup.
"Wait, I think we need a simpler, more laid-back outfit tonight, Emily." Adela looked at Emily who was busy choosing clothes and said.
"What? Do you want a simple outfit?" Emily was surprised, she rolled her eyes at Adela and asked.
"That's right! We should only dress well in front of important people and important things. And tonight's dinner, do you think is important to me?" Adela steps forward, she takes down a white shirt and a pair of brown jeans. Add a thin silver necklace with a pendant sculpted in the shape of a mermaid. Finally, a pair of heels just five inches.
"Master, do you really want to dress like this to go out to dinner?" Emily looked at Adela suspiciously.
"Why not? With a special position appearing all over the newspapers like Emily's owner, it's better to go out in plain clothes. The press is looking forward to having my latest picture on a special date separate from the opposite sex." Adela took down the outfit she had personally taken down. She said as she entered the changing room.
Emily looked at Adela with a bewildered expression. This was the first time Emily saw her mistress prefer to dress simply to go out to dinner.
When Adela came out, she was dressed in elegant and polite clothes. Long, loose hair is curled straight. The aura at this time shows that she has become a successful and beautiful girl.
"Emily, when that person comes, let me know right away!" Before Emily went out, Adela instructed.
"Yes! My master." Emily replied and left.
Adela sat down on the sofa again, holding her phone and scrolling through dozens of websites. She ate cake, drank tea, and read the newspaper for a long time...for a long time.
Until outside came a knock on the door.
"Come in."
"Master, that person has already arrived. The car is waiting for the owner at the castle gate, do we need to open the gate to welcome him?" Emily listened to Adela's instructions and immediately came to inform.
"Oh, sooner than I thought. I know, get out." Adela glanced at the clock on the wall and said casually. Doesn't seem very surprising.
"So that person..." Emily hesitated before leaving.
"Let that person wait outside, I have some work to do." Adela ate a piece of cake and answered superficially.
"Yes! My master." Emily didn't continue talking, she left behind the closed door.
Adela holds the phone in her hand without getting bored. She drank tea and ate cake in a very normal mood. There's no rush at all.
"Brian's here, won't you go with him, Adela?" Max asked Adela.
"What's the hurry? Waiting for a woman is something a man should be able to do. For Brian, it's a trivial matter. If he loses his patience then he will lose his yellow card to avenge my family. That's all!" Adela shrugged in response to Max.
"You're gradually making Brian Matthew a more patient person, Adela. Pursuing Adela William is a test of patience. You're trying to control him, aren't you? Not a bad start to the mission. Good luck." Max heard Adela and immediately understood what she meant. He stopped asking questions, appreciating the way Adela did a few sentences.
(...)
Meanwhile, a very ordinary black BMW stopped in front of the gate of the Earl's castle. There was only one driver and Brian Matthew in the car. The driver waited for a long time, then unconsciously yawned. Brian Matthew raised his hand to check his watch, his thick fur furrowed.
"Viscount, we've been waiting for Lady Adela William for almost three hours." The driver rubbed his eyes and then spoke to Brian.
Of course, Brian knows! He had been in the car waiting for Adela for almost three hours. Starting at five o'clock in the afternoon after afternoon tea until eight o'clock in the evening. Still haven't seen Adela come out by phone appointment this morning. He wasn't sure if Adela had forgotten or if she had intentionally kept him waiting. Many times he lost his patience, he took the phone and intended to call Adela to ask her about dinner tonight. But he is not allowed to do that. Pushing a girl on a first date is a no-no. It's impolite and unfriendly. Brian needs to shake Adela, she is the key card in his fight in the future.
Thinking and thinking, Brian finally looked at the driver in the rearview mirror and said, "Wait."
As he finished his words, the great gate of the Earl William family's house opened. From the inside, pale yellow neon lights illuminate the entire way from the mansion to the grand gate. Adela stepped out of that light in elegant clothes, a gentle smile on the corner of her lips.
Brian quickly got out of the car, and greeted her with a relaxed and elegant face.
"It's been a long time since I've kept you waiting, hasn't it? Sorry, my family has a habit of talking for a few hours after afternoon tea. I forgot about it when I was on the phone with you." Adela made an apologetic face and said before she got into the car.
"It's okay, it's my honor that Adela accepts my sudden invitation like this. What's wrong with waiting a little bit?" Brian helped Adela open the car door and let her sit in the car before taking a seat next to her.
The car quickly started up and left as quickly as a large fish swimming into the wide black sea in the dark.
The two went to a luxury restaurant next to a floor-to-ceiling window. The location Brian chose to stay was on a high floor, with a room for just two people, and an on-demand guitar band. Looks like Brian has already covered this deluxe room. Adela is no stranger to how a rich person spends money. She sat down at the table and began to look around the room with innocent eyes. Beautifully decorated, vintage style, and an atmosphere that smells of 1975 red wine. The band is melodious with old 80s music. Adela loves the classic and light atmosphere like this. It seems more refined and a luxuriously lit but empty room.
"You really like this arrangement, don't you, Miss Adela?" Brian sat opposite after watching Adela for a moment before speaking.
"Ah, yes, I really like this layout. My room at home is also arranged in the same classical style." Adela smiled and replied.
"Ah, so this is what makes Miss Adela such an elegant and gentle lady." Brian exclaims half-truth, half-joking.
This time, Adela just smiled without speaking.
The atmosphere was only soft music. Adela was relaxing looking out the window, her mind absentmindedly hanging from a tree branch. Brian had left somewhere, but Adela did not know when he came back and suddenly in front of Adela's eyes appeared a bouquet of extremely fresh and beautiful sunflowers. She looked at the bouquet in surprise before her eyes and under Brian's urging gaze, Adela accepted it.
"Congratulations, Adela! Congratulations on becoming a shareholder of House William. Should I call you Lord Earl Adela?" Brian sat down across from him and laughed.
Well, turns out this is why he gave Adela flowers.
"Mr. Viscount, you're exaggerating. I've only just become a businessman and I still don't fully understand this world. My journey to becoming a successor is still far. And moreover, my successor is not yet fully understood. It'll probably be me." Adela put the bouquet on the table, she looked at it as she spoke.
"What a humble person you are, Adela. Oh yeah, I have a present for you." Brian shook his head and smiled at Adela's answer. He seemed to remember something important and then he raised his hand and called out to one of his subordinates.
The subordinate stepped forward, understood Brian's point, and handed Brian a neat file.
Brian took the files and pushed them towards Adela, who just smiled and said nothing about the files.
Adela did not understand what he wanted to do, she still made a bewildered face accepted the file, and opened it.
Oh...isn't this a bidding project for the construction of the Setrie capital international trade center? This project is being bid by the William family and the Matthew family. This time is still a time of intense competition between the two. In the bidding session that is set to take place in the next two days, Adela is the one who will execute the plan to win this project. So confronting Brian is inevitable. Adela recently thought about how to deal with Brian in this project. Well, he seems to have given that project to her! He... it took a lot of effort to take advantage of Adela!
"Adela, how do you feel about this gift?" Brian holds a glass of red wine in his hand, he gently shakes it and brings it to his mouth to take a sip. His attitude when he gave her this important project brochure and his attitude right now...was no joke.
"Does this mean you've given up on this tender project, Brian? You want to give this project to me?" Adela was skeptical.
Brian shrugged in response. He sat up straight, a bottle of wine poured into a glass in front of Adela. The strong aroma of wine easily makes people's hearts feel intoxicated. His face really can make many girls fall in love. Extremely handsome facial features, straight nose bridge, deep and bright blue eyes, thin lips,... Oh, it's all so easy to make people admire. Adela thought if he wasn't such a terrible and heartless man. If Brian comes and loves "Adela William" with a truly sincere heart. Surely Brian Matthew will become the most perfect man in this world. "Adela, don't forget your mission!" Max suddenly raised his voice to Adela's head. Max reminded. The sudden voice of Max in her head startled Adela from her thoughts about Brian. "Oh, my gosh, who said this man Brian Matthew is so surprisingly attractive? Ha ha, Max, have you thought about changing the character configuration of this world? Everyone with such a beautiful face, how dare I break it?" Adela whispered in her mi
"Did he give it to you by himself?" Count John asked suspiciously."Yes sir, here's the document about that tender project, I've checked it out and it doesn't seem suspicious at all. What I'm wondering is why he volunteered to give it to me. I know that our House William has always been in competition with House Matthew." Adela added again."The William family competed with the Matthews for many years, but do you know when the rivalry between the two families peaked, Adela?" Count John looked at Adela with fond eyes and asked.Adela thought for a moment, but in the end, she shook her head. These are the key points that you need to learn."The climax of the rivalry began when Brian Matthew - the eldest son of the Matthew family stood up to succeed his deceased father's position of Viscount. After Mark Matthew - the previous Viscount died, many things happened. In Setrie, events brought Matthew's family to the brink of collapse. But Brian Matthew brought the family back to life with his
The large door of the bidding hall closed. Contractors from different clans and companies came in large numbers. Currently the process of bid opening and submission of tender documents. In the bidding documents provided by the contractor, all advantages of the contractor when receiving the project are clearly stated.Adela gave the file she had prepared to her secretary, who turned it over to the contractor. The atmosphere in the hall was very quiet. Looking at the people from the family coming here, Adela knew this project was extremely important to the competing families. So is the House of Earl William. Maybe this is a big turning point for the family business.In her mind, Adela silently thought for a moment and then used her consciousness to call Max."Hey Max, can you change the setting in the world you created? Max?" Adela silently called Max in her mind."Maybe." Max replied, his voice still as deep as before.Adela laughed after hearing Max's reply."I thought you wouldn't an
The hall was noisy and tumultuous because the daughter of the Earl of William was so excellent. Both beautiful and talented, jewels in the hands of Earl William. A perfect victory today made Count John William's face widen. He can be proud of his outstanding daughter.Adela stood up and walked to the podium. After giving a few brief words, Adela was finally awarded the contract to sign the project to build the national shopping center in Pediseth city - a project with a huge investment. Just when the contract was signed, suddenly there was a loud "pop" sound from above the light bulb in the hall. Right after that, countless ribbons of glitter and colored paper fell. Under the lights, they sparkled like little stars. Adela looked up startled. Before, she didn't see these fireworks, why did they appear there now?Adela suddenly remembered Max's answer when she asked: can you change the context of the world. Max replied yes. So, these fireworks are..."Thank you, Max." Adela smiled at th
The western suburbs of Setrie city is a relatively unspoiled land, the rusticity of this place comes from the lavender gardens, tea hills, and the conservation of animals and plants. Earl William's mansion was built many years ago, it is located next to a lavender garden in full bloom. Ever since Adela set foot in this land, she has felt in love with the atmosphere here. Oh, the air is so fresh, so light, and life is so easy to breathe.Daniel called the servants in the mansion to help Adela pack her bags and move to her desired room in the mansion. When they arrived at the mansion, it was already late afternoon. After having afternoon tea with purple cakes made from the original flavor of Lavender flowers. Adela was satisfied and began to visit the lavender garden next to the mansion. It was a blind man's flower garden. Although he is quite old, his eyes cannot see the way, but thanks to the help of a "four-legged friend" he still does very well in this flower garden.Adela walks aro
"I'm Calantha Farah, call me Lantha." Calantha smiled and answered Adela honestly."Calantha Farah? Well, that's a beautiful name. Calanthan means blooming flower, and Farah..." Adela made a thoughtful expression."Farah means joy and excitement. My parents gave me this name as soon as I was born, it has the complete meaning of the joy and excitement of parents when their flowers bloom." Calantha Farah saw Adela hesitate to think, then laughed and explained. It seemed that Calantha had gradually let go of her guard against Adela."As it turns out, the name says it all about you, Lantha!" Adela also smiled brightly and said: "So, where is your family Lantha, if I have free time, can I go there and play with you? I'm bored here alone, they all have things to do, only me. is to sit in one place.""From the cemetery just now, we go straight through a town's tea hill, there's a classic-style house. That's my house. You can go there and find me whenever you want. Adela-ah." The girl smiled
"Think about it emotionally, Adela."Suddenly Max appeared and raised his voice. Max's sudden appearance startled Adela."Before you speak, would you mind calling me an hour first? It's startling!" Adela was startled, she frowned, looked around, and said. She had just forgotten that Max only appeared in the system, what did he do in this world for her to see?"Having a seizure." Max gently tossed Adela a sentence."It's true that I have something to be sneaky that's why I'm startled. I have to be sneaky because of this damn world. Max, you're so cool, you've disappeared for so long, if you can't help me then stop it, Can you still tell me?" Adela crossed her arms over her chest, her eyes are really angry. She said as she turned around and walked towards the Earl's mansion."Didn't I remind you just now?" Max's laughter entered Adela's ears. He spoke again as if to justify himself."You? Remind me?" Adela frowned and asked again."Yes, think about it emotionally. That there were hidden
The sunlight outside the floor-to-ceiling window penetrated the pristine white curtains into the neat little room. The girl unconsciously furrowed her brows, her beautiful face contorted, her tired hand lifted to hide her eyes that didn't want to open from the glare of the morning sunlight. Having just been motionless and still not able to fall asleep, the phone rang like an alarm, the caller was patient for a long time, it seemed that the phone was hot. In the end, the girl could not continue to fall asleep again, she stood up, her face extremely annoyed and frustrated. She lifted her hand and grabbed the exact location of the phone on the nightstand. Picking up the phone, the girl took a deep breath and began loudly: "Hey! Do you let people sleep? It's early in the morning! Calling to see the ancestors?" A loud shout entered the phone and resounded in the small room, the caller on the phone seemed to be surprised by the shout and was silent for a few seconds. "Adela...is it true t

Max burst out laughing after hearing Adela say that frankly. "I said I would help you no matter what. The support system doesn't make you happy, so I have to take action." Max said half-truly, half-jokingly: "The first important thing you need to do is to become Earl John William's right hand, you must become a girl with great influence in this family." Max suggested. "For what? I thought it would be fine to just deal with Brian Matthew, prevent him from approaching William's house. Why do I have to be such a busy person?" Adela countered, crossing her arms over her chest. Resentful voice. "Miss Adela, right now in Earl William's family you are just a pampered princess. In fact, your words have no weight, but the Earl is willing to hand over this family to you. Previous life, "Adela William" foolishly gave William's house to Brian Matthew. In this life, Miss Adela, you need to have the ability to control Brian. And the only way to have that control ability is only one. That is, you
