Chapter 142: Only the Strong Man Can Have the Beautiful Woman
Ange froze in place as if struck by lightning. She stood dumbfounded for a while before she rubbed her forehead with her hand and exhaled a long breath. She blocked her face with the back of her hand, and her voice carried a hint of confusion, "Momoka, when?"
"I don't know, maybe it was unknowingly?" Momoka clenched her fist and bit her lip tightly, "Well, yes, unknowingly. I'm sorry, Her Highness Angelise, it was unknowingly that things turned out like this."
"Don't make that sad face, I don't feel betrayed, you're just expressing your opinion." Ange looked up and smiled as if nothing had happened, "Since Ade and I are lovers, being loyal to me or to him is actually the same thing, don't you think?"
"No, I'm very fond of Your Highness Angelise, and I'll always be your chief maid! I feel so worthy when I'm with you, there's no greater happiness as a maid, it's just that, it's just that …" Momoka's eyebrows twisted together painfully, "It's just that when I'm around Ade-san, I sometimes forget that I'm just a maid…"
"Of course, you're not just a maid, you're a very important family member to me!" Ange walked up to Momoka and hugged her, "I'm sorry, sometimes I forget to consider your feelings. But Ade is quite attentive, he will take my place to care for the neglected you, I think this is very good."
"Your Highness Angelise, I …" the maid lady's eyes filled with tears, "I, I … "
Lacus chewed carefully on Ange's behavior and lines today, and turned her head a bit incredulously to look at C.C., who shrugged at her. Lacus thought for a moment and sighed hopelessly.
C.C. looked around bored for a moment, suddenly frowned and lowered her voice, "Mineva, you just finished eating dinner."
The little girl standing at the opened refrigerator was tiptoeing around with dessert. She peeked out her tongue and walked over to the Momoka with the dessert, "Sister Momoka, don't cry, have some dessert."
"Don't lie, I'm an NT…" Ade was amused and knocked Mineva's little head, "Eat it yourself, remember not to eat too much at night. You will become a fat girl if you eat too much."
"Mm, mm." Mineva nodded happily and turned her head sideways to C.C. with an innocent smile.
At this point, Ange finally finished comforting the crying Momoka and said to Ade with a straight face, "If you want to go anyway, I support your decision, but Cagalli had just reunited with her husband for a few days, it's not good to break them up again, right?"
"You also have a point, it's my lack of consideration." Ade rubbed his chin as thoughtful, "Then who to take?"
"It's hard to find a suitable top ACE." Ange coughed and proudly patted her spectacular chest, shaking under the pat, "If you can't find one, I will reluctantly make a trip myself."
"I knew it." Lacus whispered to herself, "Her moves are completely different from me then …"
"Life is short, just enjoy the good thing when you can. Isn't it nice?" C.C. made a look of indifference, went to the refrigerator, and also took out dessert too, "Lacus, do you want to eat?"
"Yes, just enjoy the good thing when you can." Lacus smiled complexly, "And I don't need to worry about maintaining my figure anymore."
At night, after the shower, Ade got into bed early with a book to read, Ange sat on the edge of the bed and took off her undress. Ade looked at her helplessly, closed the book and put it on the bedside table, and started to fold her clothes one by one.
"Hey, why don't you find a chance to sleep with Momoka? Lacus and C.C. all understood from the beginning, otherwise, they wouldn't have reacted so much to me." Ange slipped into the quilt naked and watched him fold the clothes with a satisfied expression, "But even so, I'll still be jealous and you'll have to feel guilty about it and treat me better."
"Sigh, it's already the universe century, Friday." Ade folded her clothes and put them to the side, also lay down and looked at Ange, "Besides, Momoka looks like a junior high school student. I prefer you compared to her."
"Ange, not Friday." Ange skillfully burrowed into his arms, "Anyway, as the princess's maid, it's impossible for Momoka to marry anyone. By the way, Ade, when do we leave?"
"Wait. After I complete the things at hand." He touched Ange's soft blonde long hair, "The Gundam I promised to Nunnally will soon be ready. After finishing the last bit of debugging work, we will leave. I finally made the λ-drive's trial version, and I'm counting on her to look for Guinea pigs for me."
"I've seen Nunnally's picture, she's a junior high school student, so don't you dare to touch her." Ange said and suddenly laughed, grabbing his hand, "Don't be nasty, go to sleep. You have been busy three days without closing your eyes, do you want to die suddenly, huh?"
"Oh, so you know it, I have been hungry for three days." Ade whispered softly in her ear, "Your Highness, be kind, I'm starving to death."
"When I'm useful, you call me Your Highness; when I'm useless, you call me Friday. I've seen through you." Ange grunted, still lying obediently, "Just once, understand? If you died suddenly, do you know how many people will become a widow?"
Fifteen minutes later, after completing the part that most people would skip when they were watching porn, finally they would start the "main topic", Ade suddenly stopped kissing, panting heavily without moving.
"What's wrong? Are you too tired?" Ange stretched out her slender five fingers to caress his cheek, "Sleep if you're too tired, it's okay."
"It seems I do spoil her too much. This won't work." Ade shook his head and gently rested it against her forehead, then tilted his head and took a deep breath, shouting at the top of his voice, "Mineva, go back to your room!"
…
A week later, Spain, Halevy Estate.
Situated on the outskirts of the countryside, the Halevy estate has beautiful views and a pleasant climate, making it an impeccable choice for both a relaxing vacation and entertaining guests. As the future heir of the Halevy consortium, the wedding of the Halevy family's eldest son happened to be held here today.
The wedding had not yet begun, and an open-air reception was being held at this time. Saji walked dumbfounded behind Louise, watching Louise calmly greet a variety of big shots, who he had only seen in the online news.
"Don't be dumb, greet the guests." When no one was around, Louise glared at him, "For the sake of the ring, my Mom finally allowed you to come. As long as you perform well at the wedding today, my big brother and sister-in-law will help you, and then there will be a chance to convince my mom and dad."
Saji nodded honestly. Louise was definitely in true love with him, and she herself didn't have any bad habits as a rich kid. In all conscience, he actually wanted to behave well, but as an ordinary student, he felt he should be quiet in this place.
"Ah, Liu Mei, long time no see." Louise greeted the beautiful woman passing by, "It's rare to see you with a male companion, won't you introduce me to him?"
"This is Mr. Tomino from Japan, just a business partner." Wang Liu Mei held the arm of a dark-haired man with sunglasses and put on a formulaic smile, "But Louise, you're wearing a ring, when will you ask me to be a bridesmaid?"
"Just a bargain from a friend." Louise raised her hand and shook it in front of Wang Liu Mei's eyes with a bright smile on her face, "It's still early, it's still early."
Wang Liu Mei and Louise were not very familiar, and after a few words, she politely said goodbye. She took Mr. Tomino by the arm and walked naturally to a less crowded place, whispering to Mr. Tomino beside her, "Our deal is done here, Mr. Tomino, or Mr. Yang, or should I call you … Mr. Lingus?"
"There are so many smart women in the world." Ade replied without changing the slightest look on his face, "Tell me straight, what do you want?"
"You can't give me what I want, so it's good to have a trustworthy high-end customer." Wang Liu Mei let go of his arm and continued, "I want to get rid of this disgusting mask, I want to leave the mire of the Wang family, I want this disgusting world to become a completely different look, can you do it?"
"I can't do it, it's too difficult and the rewards are disproportionate." Ade took a glass of wine from a plate carried by a passing waiter, "At least the first two can't be done."
Wang Liu Mei's eyes opened wide.
"Don't get carried away, this cooperation was very pleasant, I'll call you again next time." Ade took a sip of wine, his tongue telling him it was premium, "In fact, you are taking a big loss in this transaction, count me as owing you a favor, I can do you a not too troublesome favor in the future."
"Not too troublesome favor …" Wang Liu Mei shook her head, dumbfounded, "You're really insincere."
Ade didn't say anything more, just raised his glass to her in greeting, then turned away and walked in the direction of the NT he sensed, "How was it, Char? How was the result?"
"It was quite rewarding. Scirocco is now having a hard time and getting support for Bright was a lot easier than expected. The only trouble is the Halevy family, no breakthrough yet." Char, alias Quattro Bajeena, was surrounded by several people, talking and laughing, "This wedding is very classy, don't you consider making up for it with Lacus?"
"How dare you?!" Ade roared, "I'm having a hard time getting this over with, and if you dare mention this to them, don't blame me for being mean to your daughter!"
"That's all you can do, as if you're willing to do it." Char's voice was full of disdain, "Recently, when I communicated with Mineva, I always felt that she was a little too precocious, is there something wrong with your education?"
"It's normal for NT to be a little precocious, not to mention that she was brought up by Haman. Mineva is now witty and smart, good grades, well-behaved and considerate, nothing to worry about." Ade decisively changed the subject, "What the hell disguise you taught me? I was instantly recognized."
"I've never been recognized." Char said smugly, "Obviously, it was because your disguising skill sucks."
"Tsk." Ade bristled, "Have you seen Rhineford? I turned around and couldn't find him."
"He's over there." Char spoke to the person beside him while unintentionally glancing in a certain direction, "Don't digress, your women are no better than Haman, I'm afraid Mineva has been taught wrong by them."
"I'm a top NT, don't I know if she's been taught wrong or not?" Ade held a tall glass and walked towards the direction Char indicated, "I'll warn you again about the wedding, don't mention it, or be careful I'll make you a Rafflesia."
"What is Rafflesia—" Before Char finished his words, Ade had kicked him out of the NT chat room.
He pretended to have nothing to do and wandered over to Rhineford, who was chatting with someone, but he still didn't find the person he was looking for. Ade circled the reception venue, luckily, it was quite crowded and his behavior did not look suspicious. After a few efforts, when the wedding was about to officially start, he finally found the frustrated Saji who had been left behind by Louise in a corner.
"Are you Miss Louise' boyfriend?" He stealthily pulled off his sunglasses and quickly put it on again, "Where is the restroom, please?"
"It's you, you, you!" Saji showed a horrified look as he helplessly covered his mouth, "Are you here to silence me? I definitely did not tell anyone about it, not even Louise! Really!"
"I came to carry out a confidential mission, and you know that guns are of no use to me, no one will be hurt if you cooperate honestly." Ade stood up to him and lowered his voice, and Saji nodded desperately, "Answer my question, where is the female companion Rhineford brought?"
"Guin Sard Rhineford? The pretty girl with white hair?" Saji tried to look calm, fearing to provoke Ade, "She said that she was not feeling well, and found a room for rest."
Ade understood. He placed his empty glass on the plate carried by the passing waiter and asked pleasantly, "Can you take me there?"
Saji gulped and nodded with difficulty.
He, being Louise's boyfriend, no one came to stop him and Ade. The duo entered a lavishly decorated building without arousing the slightest suspicion and arrived outside a guest room on the second floor.
"This is it, she's inside, and this is the key." Saji fearfully handed the key to Ade, "You, you will not do anything bad, right? Everyone saw that I brought you in. I don't mind if something happens to me, but it's not good to involve Louise."
"You did suffer a loss, It's my fault." Ade thought about it, "Well, you can go to find Quattro Bajeena later. Do you know him?"
"A, super, super, super big shot." Saji stammered, "Too, too different from my level."
"Yeah, that's him." Ade guffawed, "You go to ask him about the Rafflesia, and he will take the initiative to talk to you. The Halevy family will regard you with new views for it."
"Really?" Saji looked very excited, "Thank you so much! I will keep the thing before a secret, goodbye!"
Ade looked at Saji's back speechlessly until he completely disappeared at the end of the corridor. He inserted the key into the lock and gently pushed open the door of the room.
"Who is it?" It was an alert voice, very neutral.
A white-haired beauty in an emerald green evening gown with white silk gloves was sitting on top of the soft and luxurious bed. Her wheat-colored skin was as smooth as ceramic, and her slender feet wrapped in white stockings were revealed under the hem of the skirt. Hearing the noise, she could not help but lift her delicate face to look at the door. A trace of panic flashed across her face, followed by a look of determination and a touch of helplessness.
"It's me." Ade closed the door of the room, daintily removed his sunglasses with one hand, and gave her a slight smile, "I'm late, Your Highness Loran."
"Don't blame yourself, it wasn't late at all. I always had faith that you would come to my rescue." Loran revealed a relaxed and reassuring expression, "And my appearance now… do not call me 'Your Highness' at this time."
"Then …" Ade held out his hand to her. The "beautiful woman" moved to the edge of the bed on her heels and handed her hand to him, "Laura?"
