THE BATTLEFIELD OF LOVE
Part 35's. Two Towers
The dinner party room was great. We went around greeting people we knew and talking to them. I've been at this party a lot, had no trouble mingling with Uncle's friends who are also Dad's friends.
"Uncle David they've all paid you, haven't they?"
"Already, of course, you've helped Eliza a lot. Mr. Bessette our treasurer is very happy now. He said this kind of mess is very profitable if handled properly." I grimaced widely and laughed with Mr. Bessette who happened to be with him.
"Miss Eliza, you're very good at handling situations that were once unfavorable to be profitable." Mr. Bessette praised me.
"I'm lucky to have the help of Sir David and his staff, Mr. Bessette, the money doesn't matter but my brother is more important."
"But you should know this, Mashkov came today, he said he wanted to be a permanent donor of the party, of course I can't refuse money unconditionally." Mr. Bessette gave me information I didn't expect.
"Truely, he is indeed ban*gsat cunning." I now chimed in on Mr. Bessette.
"He's a sneaky." Monica is now joining the talks.
"Monica just now Uncle saw you join."
"Eliza asked for Uncle's company, Albert couldn't come, I'm a good sister now."
"You're a good brother, and now that cunning bastard is heading our way." Monica who was her great enemy turned her head in the direction that Uncle was looking. We saw Alexsey in his popular black and blonde suit walking towards us.
"Blonde is just like his master, so annoying." I grimace with Monica's words now.
"Good night, Mr. David, Mr. Bessette. It's good to be invited here. I really enjoyed getting acquainted with a lot of new people" He shook hands with Uncle David first of course. And spoke to him a little bit before heading to us who were still talking to Sir Bessette. "Miss Eliza, and Miss Monica, it's nice to see you both." He greeted me and Monica but mostly he looked towards Monica who was standing somewhat behind me.
"Miss Eliza, I'm just trying to do my job well. I'm sorry I have to show my face again in front of you."
"You pay for your own ticket, I don't interfere Mr. Mashkov."
"I appreciate it so much if so. Thank you Miss Eliza." He directed his gaze to Monica who was still unwilling to answer his greeting.
"Miss Monica, I've done my promise. You don't even want to return my greeting."
"That's my right not to like you. You think you can set me up." Monica still has a hostile attitude with him, but Aleksey seems not even offended. He smiled and saw Monica didn't care. This man seems to have been fascinated with Monica.
"I can't of course. All I did was greet you. Don't be so mad at me." Monica threw away her face. And then his face brightened after he saw someone.
"There's General Gillian." I also directly looked. Gilbert is here? Instead Aleksey's face instantly lost her smile hearing the name.
"General Gillian!" Monica called out to him, made him turn his head and in an instant waved back to Monica and his gaze turned to me. He came with a celag to us.
"Monica, Eliza, you're here too apparently." His sight clashed with someone in front of us. "Alexsey Mashkov?"
"Gilbert Gillian's..."
"He's a shitty guy." Monica directly accused him while holding Gillian's arm. Alexsey's expression stiffened immediately.
Now there's gonna be a war here because of Monica.
