Claudio Belles has a hug for Eduardo Tercero.
Eduardo Tercero was slightly taken aback; although she used to talk a lot, there were very few times when he would jump in for a hug like that.
Eduardo Tercero raised his arms to embrace her and his big Almira hand caressed her back.
“President Eduardo, I will treasure this piece of skin you have transplanted to me.”
Eduardo Tercero hooked his lips and smiled weakly.
Claudio Belles wrapped his arms around his neck, releasing him slightly, his watery eyes fixed on Eduardo Tercero for a moment, and the two men did not know who had started the fire, and their four lips were about to press together when a young female voice came suddenly from outside the study door.
“Where is Mr. Edward, I want to see Mr. Edward, what does he mean leaving me alone on North Bay Island, he plainly said to go wait for him on North Bay Island!”
The ambiguity was broken and Claudius Belles frowned slightly, “What have you done to that Princess Gertrude Rolan?”
There was an ironic glint in Edward the Third’s eyes, “I tricked her into going up to North Bay Island for two days to save you. ”
“…”
Claudio Belles touches his nose.
Gertrudis Rolan burst into the studio from outside, “Sir. Eduardo, you…”
Before she could say anything, she saw Claudio Belles standing next to Eduardo Tercero, and Gertrudis Rolan grew increasingly angry and moved in to shove Claudio Belles.
Claudio Belles was unprepared, as he had just received a skin graft on his chest, and was pushed so hard by Gertrudis Rolan that he pressed into a painful spot and let out a groan of pain.
Eduardo Tercero rushed to reach out to help her, “Is everything all right?”.
Gertrudis Rolan, seeing how worried Eduardo Tercero was about Claudio Belles, became even more enraged, “Sir. Eduardo! I just gave him a push from Almira! She’s not made of water, is she that fragile?”.
Gertrudis Rolan came pushing and shouting from the side, “Sir. Edward, let me see where I have hurt her! She must be pretending! She only wants you to pity her.”
Eduardo Tercero snapped at Gertrudis Rolan’s arm and said coldly, “Gertrudis Rolan, you’ve done enough!”
At Eduardo Tercero’s rebuke, Gertrudis Rolan’s eyes reddened with anger and she said in a twitching voice, “Mr. Eduardo, Papa says that this Claudio is an enemy agent! Why are you protecting her? What if one day he hurts you?”
Edward the Third frowned and threw off Gertrude Rolan’s arm with an indifferent frown, turned and caught Claudius Belles in a direct embrace, dropping the ungrateful words, “Even if Claudius had harmed me, this is none of Princess Gertrude’s business. Princess Gertrude should go home, the Edward has no guests here.”
As she finished the sentence, Eduardo Tercero was already leaving the studio with Claudio Belles in his arms.
Gertrudis Rolan looked back and shouted: “And why did Senor. Eduardo asked me to go to North Bay Island?”.
Edward the Third took a step, with a colder gleam in his eyes, and said, “Your father’s men have my Claudio, and the only way to get Claudio back from your father is to have you on my land. he was lying when he said he wanted to go on vacation with you.”
Gertrudis Rolan clenched her fists and bit her red lips, her eyes trembling with tears, while the man, cold and condescending, did not return her gaze.
In the end, she was only a hostage for Eduardo Tercero to save that woman, and she was used by Eduardo Tercero until the end.
So much hatred for … that woman of unknown origin, what gives her the right to take all the attention away from Eduardo Tercero?
…
Eduardo Tercero takes Claudio Belles back to the bed in his room.
“President Eduardo I’m fine, I don’t need to stay in bed.”
Eduardo Tercero frowned and asked, “Gertrudis Rolan acted recklessly, did she hurt you a moment ago?”
“Well, it hurt me, but it doesn’t hurt now. I think it is Princess Gertrudis Rolan who is heartbroken now. ”
“How so?”
Claudius Belles asked, “She became very sad when you rejected her so flatly, then you will be in complete opposition to the president’s side of the force in the future, is President Edward really not afraid of a falling out?”
“It was a matter of time before I fell out with Erasmo Rolan, he wanted to be reelected for another term, but the next president, Organization del ocultas, had already been secretly elected and was not to his liking and would have fallen out with me. As for Gertrudis Rolan…”
Eduardo Tercero pauses.
Claudio Belles’ watery eyes looked at him inquisitively, “And as for Gertrudis Rolan, did President Eduardo really never like Gertrudis Rolan?”
Aside from Gertrudis Rolan’s arrogant and inordinate character, the truth is that Gertrudis Rolan is a beautiful and noble woman, and if she were to marry Eduardo Tercero, it would probably be a great marriage in the eyes of the people of R. The couple would be the envy of all.
As Claudius Belles asked this question, a pair of dark, soulful eyes remained firmly fixed on Edward the Third, as if unwilling to let slip the slightest change of emotion from his face, which Edward the Third naturally noticed.
The man’s eyes deepened and turned to look at her playfully, “Do you mind whether I like Gertrudis Rolan or not?”
Claudius Belles did not deny it, “So, President Edward, did you ever like Gertrudis Rolan or not?”
“I liked her.”
“…”
“It’s just the affection of a major for a minor. Gertrudis Rolan is simple and unpretentious, and if she were not the daughter of Erasmo Rolan, I could have made her a brother.”
At this, Claudio Belles agreed, nodding his head in agreement.
Edward the Third had moved closer to her, his long arms confining her between his own. “If I say that I like Gertrudis Rolan the way a man likes a woman, it is only because Gertrudis Rolan is the daughter of Erasmo Rolan that I have broken the idea of her, what are you going to do?”
“Then I would think that President Eduardo is an asshole and doesn’t deserve to like her.”
With this response, it is no wonder that the only woman in the whole country of R, Claudio dares to say that Eduardo Tercero does not deserve to like a man.
But …
“Claudio, when did I say I liked you?”
“…” Claudio Belles met his dark, mocking gaze and told him frankly, “I thought President Eduardo liked me if he kissed me, and I also thought President Eduardo was willing to hurt himself and transplant his own skin for me, he liked me too. president Eduardo if you like me, you can’t like another woman.”
Well, a very bossy little fox.
“What if I find you boring and don’t like you anymore?”
The little fox stared at him with a serious and solemn look and said with his little hand on his chest, “Then I will kill President Eduardo. ”
Still unsurprised, Edward the Third took his dainty little hands between his big ones and squeezed them, “Can you hold a gun in these hands?”
“No, but I can learn, will President Eduardo teach me?”
Eduardo Tercero hugged her, contemplating, and after a long moment, his big hand squeezed the little vixen’s waist, “I will teach you when I am happy.”
“President Eduardo, what would make you happy?”
Eduardo Tercero drops his handsome face and whispers in Claudio Belles’ ear.
Claudio Belles pushes away Eduardo Tercero’s big hand, “President Eduardo, you are horny!”.
Eduardo Tercero loves to tease the little foxes on purpose, and is only satisfied when he has made them blush every time.
Eduardo Tercero got up and rubbed his hair, “I’m going to work, you lie down for a while.”
…
After dinner, Eduardo Tercero took Claudio Belles to the villa’s shooting range.
In all the time that Claudio Belles has been at La Villa Real, he has only known that there must be a space underneath this villa, but he has never been there because the subway rooms also require the identification of Eduardo Tercero’s handprint.
Underneath the villa, there is a training base with a shooting range, horse farm and everything else.
Eduardo Tercero helped him choose a suitable pistol and told him, “This one is less explosive and will be easier for you to practice with at first, and I’ll choose another one when you get better with your hand.”
In fact, Claudio Belles is an old gunslinger, but now she hides all her skills and lets Eduardo Tercero put his arms around her back, raising his hand and holding her, teaching her how to hold the gun and how to adjust her stance.
