Mystery: Time Travelers of the Fourth Era

Chapter 428 Changing Dance Partners

Chapter 428 Changing Dance Partners

The country music of central Ruen slowly rises to the rhythm of the dance.

Klein's reason for choosing Mrs. Mary was simple: she was at least an acquaintance, and he couldn't just stand there idly; he had to find a way to make things happen. In fact, the lady was a pretty good dancer, which allowed him to integrate into the circle.

The dance between Chael and Hazel proceeded without any major incidents.

The Machts had also planned out Hazel's future: to inherit Mrs. Liana's resources and become a lawyer, or even a top lawyer.

While the immediate spouse of a clergy member cannot engage in business, they can become a lawyer.

As for Representative Macht's political resources, they will be merged with those of Representative Maynard and inherited by Representative Maynard's eldest son. After the next generation of Chael and Hazel is born, they will be trained according to their interests to work in clergy, judges, lawyers, city councilors, or similar positions within the sphere of influence of both organizations.

Hazel herself wasn't interested in being a lawyer, especially after experiencing the extraordinary world. However, she was a confident and proud woman. Her dislike for this ordinary profession didn't mean she lacked confidence in herself, so she didn't argue with the Machts.

Perhaps in a young girl's eyes, being a lawyer who upholds justice by day and a hero who fights criminals by night is a cool, albeit somewhat childish, fantasy.

After a simple dance, Xia'er released Hairou'er, and Meigoos next to her also stopped at the right time. The two exchanged dance partners, very tacitly, without causing any waves.

"Congratulations, Hazel."

Megoss smiled as she held Hazel's hand.

"Hmph~"

Although Hazel was very confident in her appearance, she couldn't help but let out a soft snort when she looked at the beautiful blonde girl with blue eyes in front of her.

It's understandable that she was unhappy. Megos was, to some extent, her rival in love, but at least she won. Moreover, her teacher had said that a successful woman should never lose her composure over such trivial matters. She only needs to firmly grasp the core interests, and the rest can be manipulated flexibly at any time.

"My parents like you very much too."

After expressing her dissatisfaction, Hazel moved into a friendly mode. Putting aside the issue of stealing a man, she still admired Megos; beautiful people never leave a bad impression.

"It is my honor, and I am very grateful for the kindness of Mr. Macht and Mrs. Liana."

Megos gave a faint smile; the good relationship she had built with Hazel and the Macht family had not been in vain.

"I won't hold it against you for sleeping with me, since we're friends."

Although you wretched guy already... Hazel was still a little angry when she thought about this.

She was mainly angry with herself, because she had suffered at the hands of someone younger than her.

The reason why the Machts didn't care about, and even accepted, Megos was simple: Megos's existence was stable and had a certain value.

She comes from a middle-class family in Tingen, has a certain level of education, a clean background, and a career that she genuinely wants to pursue and has actively chosen.

The Machts genuinely felt that this was actually quite good. After Heyole became a lawyer, she could directly take care of and supervise the businesses managed by Megos. This structure was stable and had potential for development, and Rune's laws would protect his wife's legal rights.

As for the issue of Megos having a bit of a romantic side, the Machts didn't pay much attention to it. She was a clean, beautiful, and intelligent girl who wasn't unpleasant and got along quite well with Hazel.

If this were Mrs. Sharon, or a socialite like the White Saint Katrina, then the Machts would absolutely not accept it.

Looking at Hazel's proud, angry, understanding, and annoyed expression, Megos really wanted to laugh, but she still danced while soothing the future lady's emotions, "Please don't say that, I was just doing some...maid work."

Megoss didn't mind making jokes in front of Hazel.

"Then you need to apologize to those hardworking maids."

Hazel snorted lightly, unmoved by Megos's act.

"I will, my lady, I will do as you say."

Megos wrapped her arms around Hazel's waist and spoke gently.

She loves her current life and environment; she is happy and radiates cheerfulness and kindness.

This made Hazel a little embarrassed. After all, she was a simple girl and felt that she was making things too difficult for Megos.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Xia Er held Melissa's hand and moved slowly across the dance floor to the rhythm.

It's clear that Melissa is very shy, especially after her dancing partner changed to Chael.

"If you don't want to dance later, you can rest on the side. If you want to dance, Megos or Hazel can accompany you."

Chael did not neglect to soothe Melissa; he naturally helped her relax through a combination of words and actions, allowing her to unwind amidst the music and dance.

"Thank you."

Melissa blushed slightly and thanked Xia Er in a low voice.

She was indeed very embarrassed, but no girl doesn't yearn for banquets and dances. It's just that she had never dared to stand on the dance floor and move her feet to the music before. She had never learned how, and she also felt that she didn't belong there.

Even today, some of the simple dance steps were taught by Megose.

When Megos first arrived in Tingen, she didn't fully understand Backlund's social style and had to learn and figure it out little by little on her own. Spending time with Megos was a great help to Melissa.

This wasn't some important ball, but rather a private dinner hosted by the Macht family. Hazel was Melissa's friend, and she was here to indulge in a small indulgence. Although Melissa was apprehensive, she was still able to accept it.

"The most interesting part is probably teaching you to dance."

"It's a pity that Megas has made you no longer so naive."

Shael's words were tinged with regret. Klein, who was observing from a distance, couldn't quite hear them, but he sensed that they weren't pleasant. In this situation, it wasn't convenient to use a puppet to eavesdrop, and the lack of prior preparation caused the great Fool to feel deeply anxious.

Klein felt once again that forming a friendship with Maynard Jr. in Tingen was a mistake.

Yeah ~

When Melissa heard Xia'er's regretful words, her face turned red uncontrollably. She thought of how stiff and reserved she had been back then, and the embarrassing things she had done. She thought of how she had stepped on Meigoos's shoes many times. If it weren't for being from the same hometown, having a close friend, and having a private space, Melissa probably would have given up halfway through.

Now that Chael has brought this up himself, Melissa is a little flustered. She worries that Megos might reveal some of her poor performance to Chael. The regret in Chael's words makes the girl feel both scared and relieved. The only thing she doesn't want is for Chael to teach her to dance.

On the other side...

"You are a very knowledgeable gentleman. May I ask your name?"

Mrs. Mary admired Klein's eloquence and insight, but she couldn't comprehend the pain in the man's heart.

"Dawn Dantes"

He practically spat out those words through gritted teeth.
