Chapter 353: Ball
Rheagar denied,
How could I? All the men here are the elites of Rolling Stone Town. Youre giving me face by picking any one of them. You dont have to care about me.
Just have fun.
Lady Alena raised her eyebrows.
Really? Rheagars expression was a little ugly, but he still said firmly,
Of course!
Thus, Alenas gaze began to wander back and forth between the row of men next to her.
Many people subconsciously straightened their backs.
Some of the more confident ones even winked at Alena.
However, Alena ignored them.
Finally, she walked to Sif with a smile.
Can I borrow your male companion?
Sif seemed to have expected this. She bit her lip subconsciously but soon smiled and said, Of course. Its Matthews honor. As she spoke, she pushed Matthew out forcefully.
Matthew looked at Ms. Alena in surprise.
The others looked at Matthew with envy and jealousy.
Madam, I dont really know how to dance.
Matthew gave Rheagar a look that said, I dont know whats going on either. Alena smiled gently.
Oh? I happen to be a good dancer. It looks like well be a match made in heaven.
Matthew felt goosebumps all over his body when he heard that.
Countless murderous gazes were focused on him.
At this moment, Judy said unhappily, Mom, I wanted to choose him, but you took my dance partner away!
Lady Alena giggled without turning her head.
Is that so? Baby, then I have to choose him even more!
She pulled Matthew onto the dance floor without any explanation.
Only Judy was left looking at the group of men angrily. Finally, she walked up to Sif and reached out her hand.
Why dont you be my dance partner?
As the music started, the lights on the dance floor quickly dimmed. The remaining people quickly completed their pairing and crowded onto the dance floor.
In the end.
Only Rheagar was left standing at the edge of the dance floor with a smile, looking at the dark shadows inside.
Not far away.
A black cat that had survived a disaster was leaning on the window sill and looking in.
Suddenly.
His body trembled violently.
Matthew and Miss Alenas intense dance moves were reflected in his green pupils.
Lady Alenas dancing skills were obviously better than Sifts.
Matthew did not need to move at all.
He understood what to do when the other party nudged him lightly.
Under Alenas guidance, Matthew danced even better than before.
Lady Alena was very charming, and the strong fragrance that wafted from her body was easy to intoxicate others.
However, Matthews heart did not waver at all.
He felt like he was in jail.
Rheagar was like a warden, standing on the steps of the dance floor and looking down at him.
Sif and Judy were dancing beside them. They were not bad, but they were obviously distracted.
The two girls looked at Matthew.
As for the black cat on the windowsill, Matthew saw it too, but he was unable to explain.
Perhaps opening up the Tauren domain was a mistake.
It was different from the stiffness and numbness of his body.
His thoughts were constantly wandering, thinking about strange things.
But at this moment.
When Alena was completing a dance move, she suddenly put her head close to
Matthews ear and said in a very low voice,
There are two groups of assassins at the ball tonight. Their targets are Rheagar and me.
Matthew was shocked.
He stared at the other partys face.
Lady Alena continued to dance as if nothing had happened.
She would only blink at Matthew when she was doing something that others could not see.
Matthew asked in a low voice,
What do you mean? If someone wanted to assassinate you, why didnt you tell Rheagar earlier?
Im not afraid of assassination, said Alena.
Little Matthew, dont tell me you still dont recognize me?
In an instant, Matthew was surprised to find that this voice actually sounded from the bottom of his heart!
[Hint: Your partner, Lorraine, has temporarily deactivated his ability, Vividly
Imitation'(Acting Domain)]
[Lorraine used Mind Language on you.]
Lorraine?
Lady Alena had become Loraine?
Matthew felt his head buzz. Suddenly, he remembered Lorraines signature in the previous letter.
Losolon Ranqi
Are you from the Ranqi clan?
Matthew couldnt telepathize, so he could only ask in a low voice.
Alena is my little cousin.
Lorraine giggled and said in his heart,
Her situation in Deep Blue Harbor can be said to be troublesome from both internal and external attacks. Her mother gave me a lot of financial aid when she was alive. Whether its because of blood relations or courtesy, I have to help her.
I disguised myself as her so that outsiders would think that she really came to Rolling Stone Town while she hid in the dark of Deep Blue Harbor, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
Of course, she did entrust me to negotiate with the lord of Rolling Stone Town. The content of the negotiations included the marriage between Judy and even Alena herself and Rolling Stone Town.
Matthew wanted to ask more, but Lorraine stopped him in time.
There are too many people and too many eyes. Dont say too much. The assassins might discover you.
Dont be nervous. According to my judgment, they are still in the infiltration stage. The real attack should be in the second half of the ball.
Matthew nodded.
After learning the true identity of Lady Alena and the news that there might be assassins at the ball.
Matthew was shocked and confused.
The remaining half of the dance seemed to be so difficult to endure.
Finally, the music ended.
Matthew pulled Alena to the dance floor. Sif and Judy followed closely behind.
On the other side, Rheagar and the other men also crowded over.
Matthews eyes were sharp, and he noticed that there was a kitten with an eager look in the crowd.
He suddenly had a headache.
At this moment.
Alena suddenly cried out and threw herself onto Matthew.
I think I sprained my ankle. Matthew, can you help me to the changing room next door to rest?
Everyone stared at this scene with their mouths agape.
Then, Alena looked up at Rheagar with an apologetic expression.
I might not be able to dance tonight. Is it convenient for me to borrow your magic consultant?
Rheagar was able to maintain his proper demeanour.
He waved his hand in a seemingly generous manner.
Its okay. Please order Matthew around as you please!
Hehe, then it would be impolite to refuse.
With Rheagars permission, Alena held her dress in one hand and Matthew in the other as she jogged into the changing room.
Bang!
The door of the room was slammed shut. Are they already in the changing room?
I didnt think Matthew even did anything!
In the crowd, Blake stroked his beard and asked in surprise.
Beside him stood the young man who had returned.
Little Patton downed the red wine in his goblet.
I knew that he would be able to use what I gave him.
Pay up, brother.
Aiyo! Who tripped me? Silly cat, why are you running so fast? Are you going to witness the adultery?
