Shut Up, Young Lady, Obediently Hand Over The Money And Don't Confess!-Chapter 397 : Go, Adelina, Do What You Want to Do

"Father, I..."
Several blocks away from the school.
The fireworks were a little fainter here, and their two shadows constantly changed shape.
Adelina followed behind Claude, finally stopping and calling out to her father.
"Father, I still want to go back to Felyn's side tonight and ask him what he's thinking. Can I not go home with you just yet?"
Adelina's original plan was to wait until Felyn finished talking with Lord Silafiel, then go and ask Felyn what was truly on his mind.
But not long after Adelina left the group of young ladies, she was taken away by her father.
Claude didn't turn around, speaking with his back to Adelina. "And then? What do you plan to do?"
"If Felyn doesn't want to live with Miss Daiyi, I'll take him to my house."
"And what if he does?"
"If he does..."
Her rose-tea colored hair hung low in the air, lifeless even when invited by the wind.
"If he does, then I'll watch him be with Miss Daiyi, and I will leave him."
Claude turned around and looked at his daughter.
"Then what if I want you to come home with me right now? You should know, if you do something like this, you might be ridiculed by others."
Nobles with nothing better to do love to gossip.
Adelina bit her lip, her head lowered, staring at the tips of her toes.
She was the "child of other people's families" in everyone's eyes, the light of Claude.
Disobeying her father was something she naturally wouldn't have done in the past.
But...
"Father, I'm sorry. I have to do what I want to do. After tonight, I will accept any punishment."
Adelina raised her head stubbornly, looking at her father.
"I don't want to miss out on Felyn again."
Adelina was originally a girl who blushed easily. Every time she had physical contact with Felyn, she would blush for a long time, and the shyness would linger on her for ages.
But for Felyn, she had changed a lot. She no longer buried her thoughts deep in her heart.
Her past self-righteousness had already made her suffer enough.
Claude's face was grim as he walked to Adelina's side, looking at her determined eyes.
The air between them began to flee, avoiding getting into trouble.
"Felyn being taken away, under this problem, different people will have different solutions," Claude said.
"That fellow Silafiel, he dotes on his daughter too much, afraid she'll get hurt in any way, so he'll send people to kidnap Felyn."
"But I'm different. I'm not afraid of you getting hurt, because I believe you are the most outstanding."
The fireworks reflected on Adelina's face. Her grayish-blue eyes widened slightly, and her lips trembled a little.
"Kidnapping Felyn won't solve any problems. If you truly like Felyn, you should do as you said. The first thought should be to see the other person happy. If he has someone he likes, and he doesn't want to date several girls at the same time, then you should silently wish him well."
Claude patted Adelina's shoulder, speaking his inner thoughts.
He was completely different from Silafiel. He hoped more for his daughter and Felyn to help and support each other as they walked the path of life.
"Father, so you mean..."
Claude raised his hand and waved it gently in the air.
In an instant, the sound of neat footsteps echoed from the dark alleys around them.
Under the interwoven light of fireworks and the moon, nearly a hundred members of Adelina's guard unit appeared in formation.
They were clad in silver-gray light armor, and the deep blue capes on their left shoulders swayed constantly with the wind.
A suppressive sense of power filled the air, surprising even Adelina.
"Silafiel wants to take Felyn back to his home tonight, so I brought a few people to stop him."
He walked up the steps alone, his hands behind his back.
"Do what you want to do, Adelina. Whether you snatch Felyn away, stay away from Felyn, or want to live with Felyn, I trust your judgment. And Felyn, he..."
Not long ago, when Aurilean said in front of him, the King, and Silafiel that Daiyi liked Felyn, Claude felt something was wrong.
How could the daughter of a Church of Truth elder be connected to Felyn?
And Aurilean had accepted Felyn so calmly.
Claude wasn't sure of the reason.
After Aurilean left, the King kept the two of them in that room.
Silafiel hinted at his actions for the night. Unexpectedly, the King did not stop Silafiel. He even hinted for Claude to join in tonight's scramble.
For Felyn, the King chose to offend the Church of Truth.
Why on earth the King would do this, even Claude didn't know.
Logically speaking, it was absolutely impossible for the King to have any connection with Felyn.
So what on earth was going on?
Was it because Felyn had awakened some powerful divine art, which was why he was favored by the King?
Or was it that Felyn was involved in the interests of the royal family?
The King, Claude, and the others did not know about Dorothy's plan, so they were all unaware that Felyn had signed a contract with the Demon King's daughter.
Claude turned his head and saw Adelina looking up at him from the bottom of the steps.
"To actually argue with me over a man, sigh..."
Although Claude didn't say it, he was still a little jealous of Felyn in his heart.
But Felyn was now in the vortex of power, and it was precisely because of this that Claude was even more determined to support Adelina's actions.
The faint car lights in the distance gradually brightened, and a fast-moving vehicle slowly approached.
It was Felyn and the others.
And behind them followed a group of people also dressed in armor.
They were Silafiel's guards.
"Daiyi, I need an explanation."
The Divine Child placed her hands on her thighs, her body sitting ramrod straight.
"Didn't I just explain?"
The Divine Child shook her head, clearly not believing it. "Felyn is your lover, and he's also the lover of other girls."
Daiyi turned around and looked at the expressionless Divine Child.
"Who can I blame for falling for him? After falling in love with him, my body and mind are no longer pure."
"Daiyi, don't talk nonsense. Your mind was already impure before you met me. And your body is still very pure right now."
The Divine Child watched Daiyi and Felyn bicker, tilting her head slightly.
The memories from before she became a Divine Child had not disappeared. In her impression, Daiyi was not this kind of person.
Daiyi always had that rational, detached expression, as if everything had nothing to do with her.
Felyn paid no attention to the expressions of the two beautiful girls in the car. He squinted, seeing a few illogical beams of light appear in the middle of the empty road.
A moment later, those beams of light began to grow larger.
It was the light of a transfer sigil.
Felyn quickly controlled the sigil device, bringing the car to a stop.
"We've been caught up to," he said, sitting in the car and watching several figures appear in the light.
A dozen heavily armored knights appeared out of thin air on the street, blocking Felyn's path.
Felyn had thought they were accomplices of the group behind them, but when he saw the leading knight clearly, he was a little surprised.
She planted her sword on the ground, her hands resting on the hilt.
Her golden ponytail fluttered in the air like a military banner.
Veronica.
The knights in front of him were Dorothy's people.
