Chapter 351: Sleepless Night
"Boom!"
Rhodes slammed his fist on the table, he looked at the information displayed in front of him, gritted his teeth, and remained silent.
Although Rhodes had hoped that there was still a gap between reality and the game countless times on the way back, now, the cruel reality was completely in front of him. In the intelligence data of Annie that appeared in front of his eyes, the "weakened" DEBUFF was impressive.
"Hoo ..............."
Rod relaxed, leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, he was silent for a moment, and finally stood up, walked out of his room, came to the guest room at the end of the corridor, reached out, and knocked on the door.
"Ah, Mr. Rod."
The door was opened by Lizzie, Marlene, and Christie, and Labis did not appear among them, and after returning to the stronghold, Rhodes ordered her to self-examine and confinement with a gloomy face, and the poor alchemy elf knew that she had made a mistake, and went back to her room and confinement with tears in her eyes.
"How's Anne doing?"
"Not very good...............
Hearing Rod's inquiry, Lijie shook her head helplessly.
"The side effects of that potion were so bad that the amount of strength in Anne's body was almost gone............... All I can do is conserve her strength, Mr. Rhodes, how long will the side effects of this potion last? β
"Anne's performance is truly amazing."
At this time, Marlene, who was standing on the side, also spoke, judging from her current expression, the girl seemed to be no different from usual, and the impact of the previous incident on her seemed to have disappeared. Marlene frowned slightly, stretched out her fingers while playing with her hair, and said solemnly.
"Although I don't know what kind of potion it is, but from the effect of it, it obviously intensifies the amount of force in Anne's body, and the amount of force generated by this direct stimulation is very powerful, but the side effects are also amazing......... Mr. Rhodes, I'll go back to the academy and ask my tutor about it and see if she has any good solution to this problem. β
"Please."
Rod nodded at Marlene. Then he turned his gaze to the other two.
"It's late at night, go and rest, and leave it to me."
"Mr. Rhodes?"
Hear Rhodes. Lijie's eyes widened in confusion, while Christie reached out a small hand and gently grabbed the corner of Rod's clothes.
ββ¦β¦β¦ Christie......... Can and ......... Rod and Anne............ Together? β
"You go and rest, Christie, too."
Rod crouched down and looked at the girl, smiling.
"It's late, and you have to pay attention to your body as well. Isn't it? β
"Uh-huh..............."
Hearing Rod's words, Christie was a little hesitant, but in the end, the girl nodded obediently. Then she took Lijie's hand, and the two of them walked out of the room. At this time, in the whole room, only Rod, Marlene and Anne, who were lying on the bed and falling asleep, were finally left.
The atmosphere became a little strange for a while.
"Mr. Rhodes? We won......... But you don't seem to be happy? β
Marlene watched Rod's face quietly. The burgundy pupils shone with warmth, a soft glow that she didn't even notice herself.
"Of course, the victory is worth rejoicing, but the sacrifice may be a little too great."
Faced with Marlene's inquiry. Rod shrugged his shoulders, then pulled a chair from next to him and sat down.
"Although I know that there is no point in regretting it, I still have to say that if I knew that Lu Dao was like this, I wouldn't have let her play."
"But Anne is still going to play, and we all know that." β¦,
Saying this, a helpless wry smile appeared on Marlene's face, and Rod nodded. Although on the surface Anne still looks very childish, she is very persistent. Sometimes it's a good thing, but sometimes it's a bad thing. It is not easy to "train" Anne's personality. After all, people are not data, and they can be changed as much as they want......... Thinking of this, Rod couldn't help but reach out and press his foreheadβββ in his summoning elves, there is also such a headache.
"So, Marlene, is there anything else you can do?"
Both Lijie and Christie have left. Only Marlene remained here, and of course Rhodes could not have thought that the other party had come to enjoy the flowers and the moon with him and reward Anne.
ββ¦β¦β¦ That is true. β
Hearing Rod's inquiry, Marlene hesitated, then she reached into her arms and pulled out a letter.
"Earlier about the Anlanic consortium......... The Senia family is taking care of it, and my father has taken over the matter, and this is an invitation from my father to convey it to you, inviting you to visit the central ring of our Senia family after the Midsummer Festival is over, and he wants to thank you in person. β
"I know."
Hearing Marlene's answer, Rod nodded slightly, and then he remembered something and asked.
"How's that woman?"
"I don't know ......... way"
Hearing this question, Marlene's expression became a little depressed, she lowered her eyes, and slowly shook her head.
"I don't know what will become of Alanson in the end......... I heard that her parents would send her to a convent for a period of time, hoping to ......... Let's hope that changes somewhat. β
Saying this, Marlene closed her mouth and didn't say anything more, but Rhodes also knew very well that Marlene knew what would happen to Aranson. A noble lady who has been played bad, it is naturally impossible for her to continue to exist as a stain on the family.
"I'd like to say it's not your fault, Marlene, but I know that this comfort is of no use to you."
Rod turned his head and looked into the girl's eyes.
"In any case, the other party is here for you, and your friends are involved in it, so I can understand your inner feelings. Anyway, Marlene, keep going, it's something you'll have to faceβββ but at least, I can promise to be by your side. β
Hearing this, Marlene was slightly stunned, and then she showed a hint of a smile.
ββ¦β¦β¦ Mr. Rod, this is the first time I've heard you speak to a girl......... I have to admit, it's really good. β
"Done with the nonsense? Give me something. β
In the face of Marlene's answer, Rod raised his eyebrows, and then said expressionlessly. Hearing Rod's "order", Marlene smiled helplessly, then stretched out her hand and handed the invitation to Rod.
Rod reached out and took it, and the fingers of both sides touched for a moment, and at that moment, Marlene's movements suddenly stiffened.
"Huh?"
Rod took the invitation and raised his eyes to look at Marlene with some confusion, only to see that the girl's fair face at this moment was flushed, and her eyes even became a little dazed and distracted. However, Marlene soon shuddered, and the whole person came to her senses again.
"Yes, I'm sorry, Mr. Rhodes......... It's getting late at night, so I should go back to my room and rest......... Well, good night. β
After saying this in a bit of a panic, Marlene hurriedly turned around and left the room.
"Whew............ Whew........."
Back in her room, closing the door, Marlene fell headlong into the soft bed, her face flushed and her breathing was very short.
How so? Marlene uneasily stretched out her hands to her chest, feeling the fierce beating. She thought that she could face all this calmly now, and when talking to Rod, Marlene behaved as always. This made Marlene think that she didn't have any problems, but it wasn't.
At the moment of contact and collision with Rod's fingers, feeling Rod's body temperature, Marlene immediately involuntarily remembered the events of that night. That night, although I was a little vague because of the effect of the drug, this vague feeling was more vividly engraved in my memory. Marlene once again couldn't help but think back to what she felt that night, Rod's body temperature, Rod's fingers, and ............... The intense and exciting impact.
"Uh-huh............"
Her body began to gradually become hot, Marlene writhed restlessly, her hands unbuttoned her collar, took off her robes, and then clumsily and instinctively stroked her body, while closing her eyes, and soon, in Marlene's heart, Lot's figure appeared again, overlapping with the scene of that night. Her fingers seemed to transform into Rod's fingers at this moment, caressing her body wantonly. It was a rough, wild, but uncanny feeling of being comfortable, wanting to give everything to him.
"Rhodes ..............."
Reminiscing about the vague memories of that night, Marlene twisted her body, although she had never done anything like it, but she knew what to do uncannyly. The slender hands instinctively rubbed and caressed the girl's slender and beautiful body, becoming more and more intense, and the girl's gasping became more and more rapid, and finally, Marlene screamed, her right hand went deep between her legs, and her left hand held her soft breasts, the girl's body tensed, and after a while, it relaxed again.
The wheezing sound gradually became calmer, Marlene lay down on the bed, and her eyes, which had been a little confused, gradually became clear again.
"I............ I......... What the hell am I doing? β
Thinking of this, the girl's face flashed again, and she screamed involuntarily, and then Marlene pulled the quilt and wrapped herself in it.
It's a dream! That's right, it's a dream............
The girl muttered to herself, slowly closed her eyes, and soon fell into a deep sleep. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
