Mrs. Marina is not in the apartment, so it's quite a coincidence. I'll go to the construction site to meet Huang first.
I hurriedly dealt with the official business and rushed back to talk to Mrs. Marina about my thoughts. I just asked her to help me arrange a meeting with Mrs. Trelawney, and didn't say anything else. I didn't expect her to agree so readily.
It's best not to meet alone. Instead, organize a tea party for you and your group of ladies to relax and chat over afternoon tea. This way, everyone can come without any psychological burden and will be happy to relax and chat. And so, we have the tea party at 3 o'clock this afternoon.
At first, I thought it would be just a few people, but I didn't expect that Mrs. Marina has quite a strong appeal. She told me she only invited five people, but in reality, ten people showed up. These idle rich ladies really know how to pass the time.
I prepared their favorite tea, various desserts, and fruits in advance, hoping that they could have a pleasant afternoon. It cost me a lot, but I'm willing to do it!
I caught a glimpse of Mrs. Trelawney chatting happily with them, as if she had no worries at all. But I have to tell her about this. I plan to intercept her when she gets up to go to the bathroom, take her to the next room, and lay everything out for her.
It was indeed such a passing, when Mrs. Trelawney came out of the bathroom, I appeared in front of her. She looked surprised at first, then exclaimed loudly, "You're not..."
I interrupted her and made a gesture, indicating for her to speak more quietly, and her voice immediately lowered.
"Are you not the gentleman I danced with last time? What a pleasure to meet you again. You are the best dance partner I've had so far. Since our last dance together, I have been looking forward to the next time we could meet and collaborate again. I really enjoyed our dance last time, and I am very grateful for the joy you brought me!"
"Madam, you are too kind. You have always been the object of my admiration, and I am willing to do anything for you. However, may I have a word with you? I have something important to tell you."
"Oh, what's the important matter? Your serious expression has completely baffled me!"
I gently took her plump white arm and led her into the room next to the bathroom. She amiably followed me into the room.
I closed the door, let her sit on the small bed in the room, poured her a glass of water, and then moved a chair to sit next to her, looking at her affectionately.
"Sir, please tell me what important matter it is. You've confused me. The sisters outside are still waiting for me to go over!"
"Dear Taliesin, before I tell you, you have to promise me that you won't be impulsive and you won't be sad, okay! You need to know that I am by your side, I am with you!"
"God, I don't understand what you are talking about, I don't understand a word. If you waste any more time, I will leave. The tea party will end, and I have more important things to do tonight. I don't have time to waste on you."
"What important thing is happening tonight? Let me guess, are you meeting YeluFu to watch an opera together?"
"You are so strange, prying into my privacy!" Mrs. Trelawney seemed clearly angry.
"I'm not prying into your private life, I've discovered a secret that I must tell you, my dear. I don't want my beloved woman to get hurt! YeluFu won't be going to the opera with you tonight because she has something more important to do. She's been lying to you, she doesn't love you at all!"
"What are you talking about, you're really out of your mind!" Mrs. Trelawney was a bit emotional, she stood up, ready to leave.
"Please be patient and listen to everything I have to tell you. You won't be so impulsive once you hear it all. I went to great lengths to tell you the truth because I am fully confident that I can prove it's real, okay!"
She sat down quietly again, with a melancholic glint in her eyes.
"YeluFu is going to Elisa's place tonight because they are going to hold the wedding ceremony on the 10th of next month!"
"What? He's getting married? That's impossible. He told me he hates the constraints of marriage, like being forever imprisoned within walls. He doesn't like that kind of life. We had reached a consensus on this viewpoint because I also think the same way. I'm experienced in this matter, and I understand better than anyone how suffocating the feeling of being imprisoned without love in marriage is. YeluFu has the same thoughts as me. He hates marriage, so how could he choose to get married? You must be mistaken, you must be mistaken!"
Mrs. Trelawney's expression and actions were indifferent, clearly she didn't believe this fact. Poor woman, her intelligence was almost zero when love clouded her mind. Hasn't she heard the saying, "It's better to believe in ghosts than in a man's broken promises"?
Of course, I can't be included in this. I'm not like them.
"You may not know me yet, so let me introduce myself. You may not know me, but you surely know Captain Zhangjian! We met at his birthday party. What kind of person is Captain Jan? He even marked this schedule in his own notebook, and today he specifically reminded me to remind him not to forget to prepare the betrothal gifts for the wedding on the 10th of next month! Now you understand, right? I am his personal assistant. Could he be wrong about what he said? This news absolutely cannot be wrong!"
"Taliesin suddenly slumped on the edge of the bed, staring blankly, muttering incessantly, 'How is this possible? Could he have lied to me? Everything he said to me was fake, and he really is going to marry Elisa!'"
"Yes, my lady, it's absolutely true. A few days ago, YeluFu held a celebration banquet and he invited me. I also overheard other women discussing the matter at the party, but unfortunately for them, I happened to hear it. They even warned me not to let slip any details, as the specifics have not been announced yet. I suspect there may have been a leak from within. This morning, I specifically went to Mr. Zhan's office just to verify the accuracy of this matter! Now you understand, right?"
"Why are you telling me all this? Why? Are you deliberately trying to see me in a bad light? You really make me very sad, you know!"
Taliesin couldn't help but restrain his emotions as he spoke, and tears mercilessly welled up. Seeing her crying, my heart instantly melted, and a feeling of cherishing her overwhelmed me. I took the initiative to hold her hand, then sat beside her, wanting to embrace her and wipe away her tears.
