The Abandoned Princess

Billing Promises

"Good move if there's alcohol." When Zacky finished the third cup of tea, he finally said as he could not help it.

Lexie nodded, "Today is too hasty, tomorrow we will go buy alcohol. And again it's time for you to buy some daily necessities, the season is changing too fast and also it's time to add more clothes."

"Yes." Yeah." Zacky replied at a glance with a bit of sadness saying: "Do you think Alvaro ate Kenya and wore warm clothes? Thinking we can sit comfortably here and drink a cup of hot tea, how about it ..."

Right now, Alvaro is almost a taboo topic, once started, it can make their mood very heavy, but they can't help but think about it and want to say it.

"Sir Alvaro ..." Lexie choked a little, her eyes wet again, "Sister Alvaro will definitely be fine. Samuel wants to get something, he will definitely keep his life, as long as he is alive, we will always think of a way to save him."

"certainly can! And again teacher Damian's revenge must be avenged!" Not knowing what it was to comfort Lexie or to comfort herself, when Zacky spoke, she spoke with great certainty.

The two did not speak, they fell silent again for a while, Zacky's eyes accidentally falling into Lexie's stomach, "Lexie, what are you going to do with this child?"

Lexie touched her still flat stomach, her movements were very gentle, licking her dry lips, saying one word, "Maintain it."

Zacky looked at his attitude firmly, finally he sighed and said: "Before the teacher died brother said that he promised to take care of, including taking care of the child in your stomach, now that Alvaro's life and death are hard to predict, this promise let me fulfill it, Lexie I'll marry you ..."

"Huh ..." Lexie widened her eyes staring at Zacky.

Zacky's face flushed in the face by Lexie, hurriedly explaining: "Lexie, you don't get me wrong I don't have feelings for you, just think, think, if this child is born then it will have the greatest influence on your good name, society cannot tolerate unmarried women but have given birth to children, do not have status then you will be treated badly! I don't care, I probably won't get married for the rest of my life, so, I'm willing to protect your good name, so we can do the wedding ceremony, but pass each other's lives, you ... I mean, you know what I mean, right?"

How could Lexie not understand?

An elder sister who can do things for her up to this stage, how could Lexie not understand her good intentions?

Lexie bit her lower lip and nodded, but she still refused to say: "Can't sister, this child is Victor's, she won't allow her son to call another man by father's call, if he does that, I think he'll kill you."

How Lexie can let Zacky get stuck in such a passive position for his good name.

And again, Lexie remembers when Zacky's eyes looked at Anita, the love in the eyes was so vibrant and so obvious, unfortunately Anita's father killed Damian's teacher instead, this hateful grudge was in the middle of the two, there was no need to talk about Anita having absolutely no feelings for Zacky, even if there were, there was no possibility for the two to be together.

Not surprisingly, if Zacky says that he will not marry for life, a man like this, falling in love with a woman who should not be loved, has been doomed alone for life?

Zacky had no idea what Lexie was thinking, immediately showing an anxious expression as she listened to his words, "But, if she doesn't give you status, how are you going to continue living?"

Lexie was silent, this question she really didn't know what to answer.

His silence made Zacky wonder, perhaps because he could not stand the silence, Zacky got up and went outside, only to faintly say: "I want to drink, Lexie, you go to bed first."

Lexie agrees, and doesn't stop her from letting her out, Lexie knows that Zacky's heart is depressed, so she won't stop him.

Waiting after Zacky left, Lexie sat in the courtyard for a while before returning to the room, she who was lying on the bed could not sleep for a long time, until midnight, the man who was lying on the bed could not sleep for a long time, Lexie heard the sound of footsteps staggering at home, she got up and saw Zacky had gone home, then she just quietly lay in bed, this time, not how long Lexie immediately fell asleep.

Early in the morning the next day, none of them brought up the matter last night, only to seep in and then they went out together, preparing to go buy some basic items, he said, all of you look around, is there a shop that is suitable to be made into a blacksmith shop.

After they walked on the road they only realized, that the road today seems different from before, obviously the new year has passed, but there are still many shops and houses that still hang red lanterns on their doors, even the streets seem to have been specially cleaned, look very clean and neat.

Zacky had never come to Phoenix city, even though he was out for alcohol last night, but he couldn't really see clearly last night, in the morning when he saw her he was a little surprised, "No wonder this Phoenix city is the capital of Nanyue country, this city is festive, clean and tidy, it is not surprising, it's even better than other cities."

"But unlike this before, today it seems like there's something special." Lexie was also confused, taking Zacky walking into the clothing store while chatting.

Both of them carried a lot of groceries in their hands, at first glance also knew they were out to buy goods, the eyes of the shopkeepers were very sharp, they immediately introduced their own merchandise so friendly, they were very friendly, when listening to his second conversation, he could not help explaining their confusion, "You guys have not come to Phoenix city for a long time no, there will soon be a big event in Phoenix city, Phoenix city, Phoenix city, so the big streets of the city are being refurbished, yesterday in person the guards came to do the door-to-door notification, this main road should be just as lively when passing the new year. The government gave the order, we little people where dare to say anything."

As the shopkeeper spoke, Lexie picked up a light blue robe, he lifted it and compared it to Zacky's body, "Sister, I think this color is good enough, if worn by you, want to try it?" Lexie seemed not to hear the words of the shopkeeper, the look on her face seemed disinterested.

"Yes, I see if the master wearing it must look good, the mistress really has good taste." The shopkeeper immediately answered his question in a friendly manner, rushing to ask the waiter at the store to help Zacky carry his belongings, so Zacky could try on the clothes.

The name "Mistress" by the shopkeeper makes Lexie feel awkward, when he wants to explain instead seeing Zacky has taken over the clothes in his hands: "I'll go try it."

Zacky did not explain to the shopkeeper, Lexie's heart was warm, he did not say anything else, an unmarried girl chose clothes for the man at first was already a disrespectful thing, he said, after all an irrelevant person, why explain it clearly and then accept the treatment that is denigrated by others? Zacky is protecting her, Lexie can understand.

Zacky quickly changed her clothes, the light blue robe was a perfect fit for her, very similar to her humble but still calm personality.

"Hey, you look so good wearing these clothes, this good looks can be compared to the king Victor, the groom tomorrow!" The shopkeeper said happily.
