Chapter 5669 You also want to get rid of the control at home
Outside.
Eleanor had already finished a cup of coffee, and then picked up the empty cup and unconsciously put it to her mouth, thinking she was drinking air.
She came to her senses and realized that she had unknowingly failed to notice that the cup was empty.
She took this opportunity, took a deep breath, interrupted the other party, smiled slightly and said, "Do you mind if I get a glass of water?"
The man leaned back calmly on the chair, put one hand casually on the armrest, and raised his hand calmly: "I don't mind."
Eleanor waved to the assistant standing aside and hurriedly ordered: "Make me another cup of coffee, I want mocha."
"Okay." The assistant came over to listen to her instructions carefully and went to the tea room.
Eleanor raised her brown eyes and looked at the assistant brought by Earl of Reims, who was also standing not far away. She said with a cold face: "I have good Ceylon black tea here. You can also make it for Earl of Reims." A cup of black tea.”
She didn't give the assistant a chance to refuse, and turned to look at the man opposite: "Earl of Lance doesn't drink tea from outside, but we have been chatting for so long, and you should be thirsty too. Ask your people to make tea for you. You should trust me."
His fingers tapped on the armrest, slender and powerful, and his sitting and standing posture looked particularly elegant. He looked back at the assistant and said slowly: "Go and make a cup of tea."
The assistant knew that this was an excuse for the Irene family heir to dismiss him, but the Earl himself spoke. He could not stay. After his hesitant expression did not receive a response from the Earl, he was unwilling to follow Eleanor who had just left. Secretary's footsteps.
Wait until they are gone.
Eleanor fiddled with her hanging hair, and her scrutinizing gaze returned to the man sitting opposite her.
Ask very directly. "Why help me? What do you want."
In fact, the Earl of Reims just asked her frankly if she was interested in cooperating with him to annex the confiscated Mu family's property.
Now all the major families in the Sixth Continent are suspecting that the ten old men are bringing him back to take care of the Mu family's property, but after all, the matter has not been settled yet, and the outside world has not received the exact news.
The Earl of Reims was lucky enough to tell her two major pieces of news in just half an hour - 1. The Tenth Elder was determined to hand over the Mu family's property to him. 2. He needed a partner and chose her.
Of course Eleanor wanted to cooperate with him, it would do her no harm, but she didn't believe in pie-in-the-sky...
She wanted to know more about what this man had planned.
"Don't tell me that you fell in love with me at first sight." She was half-joking, but her eyes were actually cold, just waiting for him to reveal his flaw and bite him to death.
The sun shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and dust dances in the golden light. His figure is tall and straight, like a proud green pine, attracting the attention of the outside world.
He raised his hand to adjust his collar slightly, and loosened his tie with his slender fingers. His eyes were deep and calm: "Didn't I say it before? We all like the sun."
"?" Eleanor felt that her brain couldn't keep up with his speed: "What?"
He kept saying sun, sunshine. Eleanor didn't know if he was being mysterious, or... could he be a hidden artistic young man?
"I don't want to live in the shadows all the time, and I can't always wear a mask. We all like the sun, and my purpose is simple. I want the sun to shine on me."
Eleanor heard him say something very mysterious and seemed to be responding to her question. She was surprised at the beginning, but then she got some meaning and gradually showed an expression of enlightenment.
"You also want to get rid of the control at home?"
