Chapter 330: Manor
The girl who heard the whistle first flashed impatience on her face, but then when she turned her head to see Roger's handsome face, the frost on her face melted.
"How are you?"
"Veronia, long time no see."
Roger smiled and said hello.
He gestured to the guard standing in front of him, "You also need an electronic invitation code to enter here......
"Get in the car, I'll take you in!"
Veronia said without hesitation that this was the first time the two had met since their last separation.
"But this young lady, according to the rules, the invited guest can only bring one more guest with him......"
The guard on the other side said with some embarrassment.
"It's okay."
Veronia waved her hand nonchalantly and pointed to a handsome young man sitting in the passenger seat.
"You, get out of the car."
It was a stout Caucasian young man with a diamond stud in his right ear.
Listening to Veronya's words, his face changed, although the people around him did not squeak, he seemed to be able to hear the faint mockery from others.
"Veronia, who is that kid and why did you let me get out of the car?"
"Don't forget, it's your father......"
"Get out!"
It's okay not to mention his father, but when he mentions his father, Veronya's face changes greatly.
After the last Fog Incident, Veronia had to leave Bordeaux due to her reputation ruined by the Shapeshifters.
The relationship between father and daughter eased a little, but after some time, everything returned to normal, and the relationship between the two became bad again.
For the sake of the family business, Veronia even asked Veronia to come forward to contact the heir of the cooperative group.
On the surface, it was contact, but Veronia couldn't be clearer about his father's idea.
Roger could only say sorry for this, and he casually threw the car key to the young man sitting in the passenger seat.
"The car is there, and you can dispose of it as you like when you go down the mountain."
The short-inch young man had a gloomy face, but after thinking about it, he still didn't throw away the key in his hand, there was a distance from here to the bottom of the mountain.
It's humiliating enough for this to happen, and he doesn't want to be ridiculed here any longer.
Roger got into the car, the guards let him go, and the car drove up into the manor, and the nearby parking lot was full of luxury cars.
Veronia's Ferrari is less visible here.
At the entrance of the manor, two rows of attendants are erect, and directly opposite the door is a large fountain, and there are statues standing in the center of the fountain.
The statue's clothing, costumes, hair, and textures are all vivid, but the only thing that makes people feel strange is the face of the statue.
The cheeks were sunken inward, and the whole face seemed to have been violently dug out, leaving a terrible hole.
As Roger and Veronia approached, they could hear guests in crisp suits, exchanging words such as art and surrealism from time to time.
"Ugly!"
Veronia pouted disdainfully, "A bunch of pretentious guys. ”
She glanced at Roger, "What about you, do you have any research on this kind of art?" ”
Roger smiled, his gaze fixed on the statue's torn face, "Don't talk nonsense, this thing might be real." ”
"Really?"
Veronia was stunned for a moment, but quickly understood the meaning of Roger's words, and she couldn't help but hug her shoulders and shiver.
The experience in the misty world has become an unforgettable nightmare for the girl, and even after a few months, she can't help but be terrified when she thinks about it by chance.
She glanced at Roger.
"What are you doing here?" Thinking about Roger's special profession, she was not only a little skeptical.
"Isn't this place a ......?"
"Don't think about it."
Roger reassured, and instead of answering, he asked.
"What about you? What are you doing here? ”
"How's it going?"
"After I left Bordeaux, I came to Elder, where my father had a large part of his business, and as for mere pleasure, I came here purely for fun."
"It was originally an abandoned manor house that had not been tended to be taken care of for many years, and then a nobleman named Dirio Brando bought it, and it was a big deal."
"It didn't take long for this place to become a mecca for young people in Alder."
"But the threshold for entering here is extremely high, and I also got the electronic pass code through a friend's introduction."
"She told me that the owner of the place, Di Lio, was personable, handsome, and hummed, and that a courtesan like her could ......"
"Smack!"
As he spoke, a soft sound came as a woman patted Veronia on the shoulder from behind.
"Wow, it turns out that in your heart I am a big-chested courtesan?"
Veronia turned her head, saying bad things behind her back but was bumped into by the person concerned, she didn't look embarrassed at all, obviously she had an excellent relationship with the woman in front of her.
It was a plump woman, with an S-shape more exaggerated than Victoria's, and she was wearing a white backless evening gown, and she was looking at Roger with a scrutinizing gaze.
"This is the ...... of Berkeley Industries"
"It's not him."
Veronia said goodbye, "That kid was left out by me, he's my friend. ”
Veronia just wanted to introduce, but Roger took the initiative to say, "Geralt." ”
"Geralt Livia."
Roger said nonsense.
The woman grinned and held out her hand, "My name is Martha." She looked at Roger's outfit, "Looks like you're prepared, knowing that tonight's highlight is the masquerade." ”
"But I really don't see what you're playing right now."
"Masquerade?"
Listening to Ma Dan's words, Veronia frowned.
In their small circle of activities, the masquerade ball is basically equivalent to another event.
**Party.
There are no restrictions on the roles of the men and women who attend the ball, but the only requirement is that everyone must wear a pre-prepared mask.
And the mask is not allowed to be taken off during the whole process, and no one is allowed to talk privately except for the sounds made during the exchange.
No identity, no age, only pure men and women, and then in the confused light, in the smoke filled with special drugs.
All had a crazy night.
"Martha, you should know, I hate this kind of activity." Veronia stared at the woman in front of her with an unkind face.
"You gave me an e-invitation card, probably just to let me bring that kid here?"
She instantly thought about it.
"Is it my father'......?"
Thinking of this, Veronia's face became very ugly, and she pimped her daughter and arranged all the activities.
Such a father is really ......
"Dear Veronia, what are you thinking?" Martha stepped forward and put her arms around one of Veronya's arms.
"It's not at all what you think."
"It's really just a masquerade party, not a kinky party."
"I know you too well, don't you want to trust me?"
Martha pulled Veronia aside, leaning forward, a strange glint in her eyes.
"Veronia, I think it's time for us to go in!"
Roger spoke suddenly, and the deep voice slowed Martha's heart by half a beat, and the woman's eyes returned to normal, and she patted Veronya's arm affectionately.
"Let's go and have fun with your little boyfriend first."
The last rays of sunlight disappeared into the sky, and shadows covered the earth.
