Chapter 2826 They all want to kill the witch (56)
Betsey did not resent Basil's lack of resistance when her father wanted to marry her off to an old nobleman. Because at that time, no one could resist King Charlie and the powerful old nobles.
After making the deal with the witch, she went to Basil and told him about it. She also said that the old noble must not look down on her appearance after the deal. As long as the old noble gives up, even if her father hates her, he will no longer stop them from being together.
That is a meaningless thing. A father who is anxious to win over the nobles will not waste time on a daughter whose appearance is not liked by any noble. He will only be disgusted with her and soon abandon her.
Feeling that Basil was a little unacceptable to her change in appearance, she made reservations when explaining the matter and did not tell Basil that she had also gained great power and had few enemies on this continent.
Her original plan was that if Basil was happy about this and willing to be with her, then she would take Basil with her to glory.
Obviously she is the only one who thinks that way. Basil, like the old noble, cannot accept her current appearance.
In order to maintain the noble's reserve, he didn't say much about her appearance, but the meaning of his words was that many people knew that the father wanted to marry her to the old noble, and this matter was not easy to change. For the sake of the royal family and the old nobleman's face, even if the old nobleman didn't like her, he would probably continue to marry her.
In fact, the father wanted to win over the old nobleman. The old nobleman had a bad temper. If he really didn't want to, the father would not offend him for the so-called reputation.
She was a little disappointed with Basil's attitude, and at that moment she understood that her love flower had withered.
Since this is Basil's choice, it is destined that there is no such fate between them. Therefore, she later found an opportunity to coerce the old noble to marry her, and then used the old noble to secretly develop her power and cultivate her own army.
It was sad to say goodbye to Basil, but she did not regret it, nor did she blame him. Not long after she married the old nobleman, Basil also became engaged. She has no more fluctuations and is more determined about what she wants to do in the future.
She has been dormant for many years, made countless efforts behind the scenes, and experienced various dangerous calculations and assassinations during the war. Now she has finally become the queen of the Lankan Empire. Her mother no longer has to look at Charlie's face in life, and can make fun of her in the palace at will.
She can also protect the family that her mother cares about.
No one in her mother's family was in a hurry to take anything from her, and her mother also warned her not to be too greedy. Instead, Basil, who was engaged to another noble lady, couldn't wait to find her and wanted to reminisce with her and renew their old relationship.
"My engagement to Miss Milly of Earl Little's House was all arranged by the family. You should know that our marriage is not free. After the family knew that there was no hope between me and you, they were afraid that the former Duke Gerry would hold a grudge. , thats why I couldnt wait to get engaged for me. Basil said with a face full of pain, Miss Milly and I have never met each other a few times, so how can we have a beautiful love.
Please forgive my cowardice, I really cant resist against the once powerful King Charlie.
This time my family is willing to let me go and quickly breaks off the engagement with the Little family because they are afraid of you.
"Betsy, if I could, if I was strong enough, I would definitely resist. However, I am just the son of a down-and-out Earl, and I can't resist anyone."
