Chapter 155: The Few Who Realized (3)
Annelie, who was about to make the tea in front of her, paused her movements.
When her mother mentioned this, Annelie had the faint feeling that she knew why her mother came to her today.
It should be because of Aurora.
Various rumors, which was completely untrue, has been spreading about Aurora during this period of time. This made Annelie who was close to Aurora, felt annoyed.
If not for Aurora telling her not to steep herself low, she would have long rushed to talk to them. Amidst these rumors that was totally unreasonable, Aurora acted as if she couldn’t hear anything and let them misunderstand her.
It felt strange.
If it was Annelie, she wouldn’t be able to stand it and would want to teach them a lesson to make sure they knew the consequences of offending her.
No matter what, their background families should have been the strongest in the Capital Academy below the Royal Family.
"Yes, Mother," Annelie answered in a low voice.
Marquess Brown nodded and then said, "I hope you can quit."
Annelie was stunned. She looked at her mother, who had never interfered in her study’s life before with strange expressions.
"Why, Mother?"
"Do you plan to refuse me, Annelie?" Instead of answering, Marquess Brown asked back. She sipped the tea in front of her unhurriedly and looked at Annelie in front of her.
From young, Marquess Brown has always decided on various matters about Annelie’s life. It was to the point that Annelie had learned about the High Society’s situation in advance and learned many other things from her mother.
But facing the current Marquess Brown, Annelie was calm.
When she was young, she was naturally afraid of her mother. But she was no longer a child. She had grown up.
"I want to know the reasons," Annelie replied. "There’s only a month’s time left before graduation. It’ll be strange for me to quit the club I have been in for almost 6 years without any reasons."
"Ah... yes, there’s only a month left." Marquess Brown sighed.
She usually spent her time in the High Society, doing parties from here and there. If not because of the tense situation that her husband told her not long ago, she would not have made this trip today.
After all, Marquess Brown trusted her daughter and didn’t think that Annelie would make any trouble.
Unfortunately...
Marquess Brown looked at her daughter. "If you don’t want to quit, you just have to stay away during this period of time."
Stay away.
Even if Marquess Brown didn’t tell who, Annelie could tell from Marquess Brown’s unsaid words of whom that Marquess Brown didn’t want her to see.
But...
As if knowing that Annelie was struggling, Marquess Brown said, "There’s no eternal friendship or enemies, Annelie. In the High Society, the most important is interest. If it harms our interest, you should cut off that ties as soon as possible and don’t let yourself make any mistake that would make you pay a high price you couldn’t bear.
Annelie took a deep breath.
She had the faint feeling that something was happening to Aurora that the latter didn’t tell her. But now that even her mother came to her like this, Annelie knew that it was true. And it was impossible for Annelie to do anything.
Looking at her mother who had a calm expression, Annelie knew that Marquess Brown wished she could do this.
For the sake of the Brown Family behind them.
"Mother, I..."
"Can you do this, Annelie?" Marquess Brown asked slowly. "Don’t you know that only those who stood at high position will be able to make a say. Those who fell down will never have a chance to rise up in the slightest bit."
Annelie opened her mouth and then closed it down again.
She knew that someone was targeting Aurora but looking at her mother’s posture, it seemed that this matter would be irreversible.
To avoid being involved, it would be better for her to cut off the ties between her and Aurora as fast as possible.
It was just...
Annelie couldn’t just cut off their friendship that had lasted for years, can she?
Marquess Brown sighed and stood up. "This is the High Society, Annelie. You have to know that if you want to stand on the high position, the people around you have to be selected carefully. Not everyone can be your friend and not everyone should befriended."
Only those who continued to stay at the top should be fiends.
Even though her mother didn’t say the last sentence, Annelie seemed to know what her mother wanted to say.
Annelie was silent.
Marquess Brown was not in a hurry.
She was enjoying the tea in front of her while Annelie was looking at the cup of tea in front of her that she hadn’t touched since earlier.
The tea that she used to like so much...
It felt really hard to touch right now.
Because Annelie knew that her mother must be waiting for her to make a decision. If she couldn’t make a decision, her mother would continue to wait for her to do so.
Because Marquess Brown didn’t want no answer.
She had to answer.
It was related to Marquess Brown’s own position and future.
In the end, Annelie sighed and raised her head to look at her mother. There was a faint mocking smile on the corner of her lips. Being raised by her mother, Annelie had long known what kind of person her mother is.
And at this time, she only had one answer.
"I know, Mother."
...
After the conversation with Marquess Brown, Annelie walked aimlessly in the Capital Academy. The classes were over and the students were all playing around the place. They have their own activities when they were not in class.
But she was not in the mood to play with the other girls.
Slowly, Annelie’s feet brought her to the Tea Ceremony’s Club room.
Looking at the familiar door in front of her, Annelie hesitated for a moment and then slowly walked in.
This shall be... the last time.
