What kind of weird button is this?

Chapter 13 The maid ran away
  Liz naturally noticed the flash of panic in Sirius's eyes, but since her current identity was just a maid, it was naturally difficult to expose her directly.

Besides, everyone has some secrets. Even if she only looks at herself, isn't she hiding a lot of things in her heart?

After Sirius went to her house that day and left first, his father directly asked him how much he could get paid for working here for a month.

Of course Liz didn't tell the truth.

She didn't know how long her lies could last without being exposed, but she knew that if she didn't lie, she would never have the chance to escape her father's control and avenge her mother.

Fortunately, lying and disguising were already the basic skills she relied on to survive. After she said that she could get 50 silver coins per month instead of one gold coin, her biological father believed her on the spot.

As for what to do with the remaining money? Naturally, he went to the black market to buy some chronic poisons and corrosive potions used to destroy corpses and eliminate traces after killing people.

Now she yearns for the image of her father lying in a pool of blood in front of her every day, covering his neck to keep the blood in his body, and she can no longer sleep.

In order to prevent others from overhearing her sleep talking, she even taped her mouth with tape before going to bed every day and only peeled it off when she woke up the next day.

Of course, although life here in Sirius was indeed much better than before, from this point of view, she was still very grateful to this man.

Even though she didn't know where Sirius came from as a wealthy man, she didn't know why the Royal Highness's visit to Anka made him nervous.

"Liz, please go out first."

"Okay, Sir Sirius."

Liz exited the room, holding on to the handrail of the stairs and just walked downstairs when she saw her father, smelling of alcohol again, staggering to the gate of the manor.

Needless to say, this must be using the salary that was advanced in advance to buy wine and gamble.

The stinky smell of alcohol can be smelled from a few meters away. Many servants in the New Delhi manor showed disgust when they saw such a guy appearing. Of course, the eyes looking at Liz were full of sympathy. .

They all knew what kind of person Liz was, but the more they knew, the more they disliked this bastard father who did nothing but suck the blood of his daughter all day long.

Some people also started to ridicule bluntly:

"People like you should die on the battlefield. At least you have made some contribution to the people."

"Can you let our Lizzie go? If Lord Sirius doesn't insist on keeping you, who would welcome you in here?"

"what are you saying?!"

The sloppy man swung the wine bottle in his hand and smashed it in front of the last person who spoke, causing the other person to scream.

And he looked at the other person's scared look and let out a few muffled laughs.

"Liz is my daughter, how do I care about her relationship with you? What? I raised her, and now she is successful and can earn 50 silver coins a month, so she can abandon her father casually, right?"

"50 silver coins? Isn't it 1 gold coin..."

Someone whispered in the distance. Although the voice was very low, the man still heard it.

"No, I just talked nonsense..."

Seeing that everyone around her was looking at her strangely, the maid who realized that she had said something wrong also lowered her head in embarrassment.

It's just that Liz's father didn't pay attention to her at all at the moment. Instead, under the surprised eyes of these people, he walked towards Liz who was standing at the back and had just left Sirius' room, and then slapped her in the face. on the ground.

Liz had been suffering from lack of nutrition all year round and her body was weak. At this moment, she fell directly to the ground after being slapped.

"You bitch, how dare you lie to me?! You told me that 1 gold coin is 50 silver coins?! Where did you hide the rest of the money!"

"Father... I was wrong. It's just that I don't want you to gamble anymore. Our family really can't go on like this."

Liz's face was filled with tears. This look made Sirius, who was silently observing all this upstairs, unable to tell for a moment whether this was the other party's true feelings, or whether he was simply acting for outsiders to see. Although this character is indeed his creation, he should know everything about the other person.

But in fact, after spending the past few days together, it seems that the other party is much more complicated than the simple description of a few lines in the original book.

Thinking of this, Sirius sighed helplessly.

Although he cannot protect himself now and will soon face a crisis that is difficult to solve, at least as long as he survives until tomorrow, he can count on the effect of the new button that will be refreshed.

But at this moment, Liz has no one she can rely on.

Because of his intervention, the conflict between the father and daughter intensified even more seriously. At this time, the eldest prince who was already busy in the imperial city would definitely not be able to suddenly appear here to help a heroine he did not know yet.

Furthermore, she is now his maid, and his maid is being bullied. As the master, he should really take care of it.

"What are you doing?"

By the time Sirius came downstairs and came to the door, the situation downstairs had become even more chaotic.

First of all, Liz's original white maid uniform was covered in dust, and the black stockings she had asked her to put on were also damaged.

It was obvious that Liz's father must have done something to her, but because there were too many people around, he could not engage in more extreme behavior such as punching and kicking.

"Lord Sirius, please calm down."

"Don't say these useless things." Sirius walked to Liz's side, passed his hands under the girl's delicate arms, and helped her up.

The long light brown hair lightly brushed against his face and fingertips, leaving behind a light fragrance without any spices, coming from the girl's body itself.

"Lord Sirius...thank you."

Because this was Liz's first time having such close contact with someone of the opposite sex of her own age, and she looked a little embarrassed now, and the stockings with holes on her legs were a little astringent, which made her whole face change. Got to be red.

"fine."

Although Sirius still wanted to continue holding this annoying maid, he was also very afraid that the other party would think that he was deliberately taking advantage of her, and then one day give her to him while he was sleeping without paying attention.

So Sirius only had a brief taste of this kind of physical contact, and then focused all his attention on Liz's father, who was leaning on the pillar and was a little unconscious.

"Liz is the maid I hired. You are only kept here because you are her father. If you make trouble like this, I can only let you go back to where you originally lived."

"what?"

After hearing this, the man showed a panicked expression, and then looked fiercely at Liz, who was standing behind Sirius.

"So can you please go back now? Don't come here again, otherwise I will be rude to you."

Hearing this, the servants around him looked delighted.

However, what everyone except Sirius didn't expect was that Liz, who should have taken this opportunity to sever ties with her bastard father, actually stood up and said at this moment:
  "I'm sorry, Sir Sirius...I can't abandon my father.

Even if, even if he is a bastard in the eyes of others, if he doesn't have me to take care of him, I really don't know what he will do alone, so I'm sorry Siris, I will make up for the salary I advanced in advance, but I hope Will you allow me to continue living my old life with my father?

It's like I've never been here. "

Liz burst into tears, her eyes full of reluctance and helplessness.

Seeing this, Sirius almost rolled his eyes angrily. If he hadn't known that the girl was afraid that she wouldn't have a chance to make a move, he would have been deceived by her gentle appearance.
