chapter_27_Identity
"Miss Colos, the drama you just now is really eye-opening." Mayor Delmond said first in the VIP room, and at the same time, he took out a bottle of wine from the wine rack and took out two goblets.
"Thank you for your praise, Mr. Delmont. That drama was not my own credit." At this time, Colos's face was the most standard smile taught in the etiquette course, "But, Mr. Delmont, I am not yet an adult, so I can't drink."
"Oh? Is that true?" Mayor Delmon said with a smile. "I thought you must have grown up when you see Miss Colos so calm and mature. I'm really embarrassed, but there are some non-alcoholic drinks there. Do you need Miss Colos?"
For some reason, he was slightly stabbed by Colos, but Mayor Delmont didn't care at all. Instead, it made people feel that Mayor Delmont's attitude towards Colos was a little respectful?
It is also Mayor Delmon's strange attitude for unknown reasons that always makes Khlo feel uncomfortable. After all, although he is the president of the Student Union of King Li College of Denise, after all, he is just an orphan from a Marcia Orphanage. Mayor Delmon, who has developed Luan so vigorously and has outstanding political achievements, should not treat himself with such an attitude?
However, it is not the time to consider this issue. If you can take this opportunity to explain the situation of the Marcia Orphanage to the Mayor Delmon clearly, maybe your first goal can be easily achieved. Thinking of this, Colos decided to bring the topic to this direction. However, what surprised Colos was that Mayor Delmon's attitude towards him was far more respectful than she thought, so before Colos mentioned the Marcia Orphanage, mayor Delmon automatically turned the topic to that direction.
"Miss Colos, we met when you were very young," said Mayor Delmon, "but I don't know if you still have any impression of Miss Colos."
"Yeah... was it the relocation and reconstruction of the orphanage?" Colos replied, "I really don't remember very clearly what happened at that time, Mr. Delmon."
"Yes, right, at that time, Miss Colos, you were just a child, and it was normal not to remember it." Delmon said, "But, I didn't expect that in a few years, Miss Colos, you have become an excellent lady."
"It is the guidance of the teachers of this King Li College of Denis that I am now." Colos said a little modestly.
"Haha~Jenice King Li College, but Luan is a pearl of Libert." Mayor Delmont smiled and said, "By the way, Miss Colos, due to the busy affairs, I haven't visited the orphanage in person for a long time. Are there any of the Teresa and his wife?"
"Sister Teresa is always worried about the orphanage deficit... As for Mr. Dean, he usually works in the dock area of Luan." Since it was proposed by Mayor Delmond himself, Colos decided to tell the truth.
"Deficit? Workmanship?" Hearing Colos' words, Mayor Delmon's face suddenly became a little unpleasant, "Is this true? Miss Colos."
"Of course it's true, Mr. Delmont." Colos replied.
At this moment, the door of the VIP room was suddenly opened, and a calm male voice came from behind the door.
"I just went to that orphanage to check it out. This is indeed the case, Mayor Delmont. He did not notice that such a situation happened. This is your negligence."
What surprised Colos was that in his words, the visitor seemed to have a higher status than Mayor Delmont, and when Colos saw who the visitor was, he almost forgot what he had learned in the etiquette course. Fortunately, Colos returned to God in a very short time.
"Hello, Lord Duke." Colos bowed slightly and gave a ladylike gift to Dunan who walked into the VIP room.
"Good afternoon, sir," said Mayor Delmon. "This is indeed my dereliction of duty, so I will investigate this matter first. Sorry, Miss Colos, say goodbye."
Although it was an orphanage on the surface, Colos could see that even if it was not an orphanage, Mayor Delmon would leave here after Duke Dunan arrived. It felt that Mayor Delmon would come to him, but in fact it was entirely for Duke Dunan.
"Goodbye, Mr. Delmont." Colos saluted again, "Good afternoon, sir."
Following Duke Dunan, another man who seemed to be a soldier walked into the VIP room, but the low-pressed brim made people unable to see his appearance.
"Alan, if you are here, Miss Colos will feel restrained." Duke Dunan waved to the man standing in front of the door and said, "You just wait outside the door."
"Yes!" Although there was no marching, the man's other reactions were the same as those of a standard soldier.
Humph... Is the identity of "Knight Ji" finally going to be truly revealed?
It should be. However, there is another funny thing. Mayor Delmont actually thought that Duke Dunan had fallen in love with Coloss and treated Coloss completely as the future duchess.
When the man Dunant Dunan called Alan was brought to the door, Dunant Dunan spoke again.
"I heard that Miss Colos, you and your companions have prepared a perfect curtain call for the King of Genesis College Festival. Unfortunately, I missed it."
"Thank you for your praise." This is the second time Colos has said this, "Duke Dunan."
"I've read the script, it's indeed a beautiful love story." Duke Dunan said, "But the story can only be a story."
Colos didn't know how to answer Duke Dunan's words, so he could only nod his head gently. After all, in the families of those great nobles, it was always very common to govern the marriage, let alone Liber's only heir, Duke Dunan. However, what Colos couldn't understand was that Duke Dunan and himself secretly complained about this, and what it meant.
"Okay, there are no other people here, so I'll just say it." Duke Dunan stood up again and walked behind Colos.
Seeing Duke Dunan's actions, Colos breathed a little relieved. It seemed that Duke Dunan probably had a crush on him, but he was probably carrying a political marriage, and Libert practiced monogamy. Therefore, Duke Dunan wanted to be a lover or a concubine, so as long as he refused righteously, the whole thing could be over. After all, aristocrats had lovers, even in Libert, which was not a big deal, but if the nobles wanted to force others to be their lovers, it would be enough to be tried by law.
Although I am an orphan and need money, I also have my own dignity.
"Colos Linci...No, Colotia von Osseres, my niece."
"..." After hearing Dunam Dun's words, Colos came back from his shock for a long time, "Duke Dunam, please don't tell such jokes to the little girl..."
"I can understand that no matter whoever is, there will be such a reaction." Duke Dunan stretched out his hand and wanted to touch Coloss' long hair, but Coloss did not flash over cleverly. "But, I will not joke about such things."
While speaking, Duke Dunan took out something from his arms.
“That’s…!”
"That's right, Colotia...or you're more used to the name Colotia. It's because of this letter that I've really confirmed that you, Colotia Linci, must be the daughter of my dead cousin, Colotia von Osseres."
"Duke Dunan, are you sure... you're not kidding..." Colos couldn't believe this fact and asked again, "Just because of this... an envelope?"
"Of course, with such a letter, I would not be so easily sure that you are my niece, Colos." Duke Dunan said, "This letter only fills the last and most important piece of fragment."

Later that day, in the girls' dormitory.
Dongdongdongdongdongdongdong-
A rapid knock on the door interrupted Liuli, Momo and Pei Qiaoer's chat.
"Please come in. Sister Winnie, good evening."
"Ha...ha..." At this time, Qiaoer was breathing heavily. It can be said that she had no image of a lady. "Three...ha... little ladies... do you know... Colos... where did she go? Ha...I heard..."
"Oh, Sister Winnie, are you talking about that?" Liuli asked Qiaoer to sit down on the sofa and then made a cup of black tea for her. "We are leaving the academy tomorrow morning, so when we went to say goodbye to the academy this afternoon, we happened to see Sister Coloss get her diploma from the academy, and then leave the academy with... a noble man who looks about thirty years old."
"Is this true? Berenka little... cough cough!" Qiaoer, who was anxious to speak, was choked by black tea.
It took a while before Qiaoer recovered.
"Little lady Berenka, can you describe the appearance of that man?" Qiaoer asked quickly after recovering a little.
"Well... let me think about it..." Liuli tilted her head and made a memory move, "Wait... I seem to have seen that person somewhere before... where is it? By the way!"
At this time, Liuli suddenly turned around and took out a copy of "Libert Newsletter" from the desk, turned to a certain page, pointed to the person in the picture, and continued.
"I said why it looks familiar, it turns out to be Liber's next successor, Duke Dunan von Osresey."
"This...how is this possible!"
"Well... I almost forgot to say that when Sister Colos left, she seemed to be out of her mind..."
"What!?"
