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.
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."
