Chapter 356 Three days to think about it
The next morning, Martha woke up early as usual.
After accompanying Jimmy to breakfast, she left the Doyle Manor.
Bianca and Maxwell saw her return to her usual appearance and relaxed a lot.
But they didn't know that Martha had been up all night last night, thinking about many things ...
...
Half an hour later, Martha arrived at the hotel where Louis was staying and took the elevator to hisroom.
She stood outside the door and hesitated for a long time, but held her breath and raised her handand knocked gently on the door.
Louis opened the door and saw that the person standing outside the door was Martha, the surprisein his eyes flashed and he quickly returned to normal.
Martha came to him, it was expected, but he did not expect it would be so soon.
Louis returned to his senses and sidled up to make way for the woman standing in the doorway.
The woman glanced at him and sidled into the room.
Seeing Louis again, Martha was no longer as emotional as the last time.
After thinking things through last night, she now only wanted to settle things on her mother's familyas soon as possible.
Martha sat calmly on the sofa and looked blandly at the man who had turned to sit across from her.
"I want to know everything you know."
Louis nodded gently, his bony fingers tapping the table.
"The Lucas family in Z Country is a big family with a hundred years of history, but because ofsomething happened before, now stepped down."
"The Lucas family has many branch families. Though the family has deep roots and many people,but the head of the family can only belong to one person."
"Before your mother, it was the old Mr. Lucas who was in charge of the whole family. Later, at hisdeath, the old Mr. Lucas named your mother as the next head of the family, but at the cost ofsacrificing her freedom and marring the royal family of Z Country."
Louis paused, his eyes darkened, and there was a long silence before he continued:
"The symbol of the family is a badge with special pattern, that badge you may have seen, should beamong the relics left by your mother."
"You do not underestimate that small badge, that thing is a symbol of the Lucas family's glory."
Martha slightly frowned, her mind unconsciously recalled the badge hidden in the night lamp.
So the badge hidden in the night lamp had such an origin.
She had been curious about the origin of the badge before, so she specially googled it, but did notfind any information, which should have something to do with the mystery of this family.
Martha thought of this, and lightly asked, "So, my mother had been set as the next heir since shewas a child. But she didn't want to be the Lucas family's heir, much less a caged bird, so she ranaway, is that right?"
Louis nodded gently, looking at Martha with growing concern, fearing that the cousin in front of himwould overthink it.
Martha was silent for a long time before she suddenly inquired curiously.
"Then why do some people want me dead?"
"Because those people don't want you to return to the Lucas family, and even more so, they don'twant you to take over your mother's position and inherit the Lucas family's headship."
Louis paused, the air around him dropped steeply, his eyes gloomy.
The next second, his hoarse voice sounded in the room, solving Martha's doubt.novelbin
"Those people want you dead, but also want to find that badge."
Martha's eyebrows knitted a little tighter. Puzzled, she asked, "What's the use of that badge?"
"That badge means a lot, but I am not sure about its use."
"Who is it that doesn't want me to go back?"
Martha's eyes were filled with doubt, and her voice grew colder and colder.
Louis, who was sitting across from her, heard these words and continued.
"It's your relatives, but it's not sure who it is yet."
After his hoarse voice came out of his lips, the room fell into a brief silence.
After a long time, Martha hesitantly opened her mouth to ask a question about the Lucas family'scurrent situation.
"What is the Lucas family's current situation?"
Louis sighed helplessly and did not intend to continue to hide the crisis of the Lucas family today.
Things had come to this point, and only if she truly understood the Lucas family's situation couldshe make a choice.
After all, he and his mother were hoping that Martha would take the responsibility of the Lucasfamily, rather than backing down in the end when she knew what was really going on.
With this in mind, he snapped his eyes shut and opened them again with a bit of determination inhis eyes.
"Because your mother did not accept the family's arrangement and successfully married the royalfamily, so today the Lucas family has lost the shelter of the royal family."
"Although later, my mother married Count Caesar, but still can not save the situation today, thebranches of the Lucas family have been replaced."
"In addition to that, the Lucas family's experienced a serious infighting, which greatly reduced theLucas family's power . Basically, the family is now a mess."
Although Louis did not want to admit that a hundred-year-old family would fall to this state, that wasthe truth.
After listening to the man's words, Martha looked at him with more and more confused eyes.
For these family matters, she really couldn't understand.
She just wanted to know, was it true that as long as she left here, her family here would be safe?
She thought of this and asked.
"Is it true that as long as I go with you, I will be able to protect my family here?"
Louis nodded gently and replied with a bitter smile, "Those people are after you, it has nothing to dowith your child, your father."
He implied: as long as you leave here, then the others will be safe.
Martha naturally heard the meaning. Yet she was reluctant to leave here.
Her eyelids lowered, so Louis could not see the look in her eyes at this time, but only a faintsadness lingered around her.
But there were things that had to be decided.
Louis was smart enough to shut his mouth and quietly wait for the woman's answer.
After a long time, Martha finally looked up and asked softly, "Do I have the chance to come backhere one day?"
Would she be like her mother, losing her freedom and choice?
Martha's hand at her side unconsciously tightened, a thin layer of sweat forming on her palm fromthe tension.
When Louis heard this, his lips pursed into a line and he did not respond.
Martha sitting across from him, after waiting for a moment, still did not hear the answer she wantedto hear.
Her mouth unconsciously revealed a bitter smile.
"Give me three days to think about it."
Louis nodded gently and didn't make the next move.
In the end, Martha walked out of the hotel in a daze.
After she walked out, she looked at this familiar city and only felt confused, not knowing where togo...
