Chapter 62 The Telegraph from Cornwall

After leaving the living room and returning to the banquet, Rorschach did not see Penelope.

Just as his eyes were circling around, a black maid came up and bent down and bowed: "Sir, Miss Penelope said she was waiting for you in the gazebo by the lake."

"Oh, thank you."

The pavilion by the lake is not far from the mansion.

After walking for a few minutes, Roche saw a graceful figure standing in the pavilion, quietly enjoying the time of being alone.

Perhaps hearing the footsteps, Penelope suddenly turned around.

When she saw the familiar face of the visitor, her bright smile suddenly bloomed on her face like a flower.

"You are here!"

"Well, I brought you a glass of champagne."

After saying that, Rochelle raised the wine glass in his hand and smiled.

The crescent moon reflected on the shimmering lake reflects a faint light.

As the night fell, the two of them picked up their wine glasses and touched them gently in the air with a "clang".

After taking a sip, Penelope's face couldn't help but turn a faint redness.

Such a romantic scenery, coupled with the beautiful companion beside you, the ambiguous atmosphere suddenly enveloped the pavilion.

Men and women stood shoulder to shoulder, and the faint smell of perfume kept teasing Luo's heart.

Looking up at the sky, Roxa turned his head and looked at the woman beside him, his eyes suddenly becoming much gentler:

“The moonlight is so beautiful tonight…”

"Yes..." Penelope, who lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking, echoed absent-mindedly.

Such a good atmosphere, should I kiss him?

What if he doesn't like women to take the initiative?

Or, what should he do if he refuses?

Will he refuse? Will he not?

And just as countless thoughts were intertwined in Penelope's mind, he suddenly felt a faint heat coming from his ears.

A magnetic voice rang out:

"Penelope, you are beautiful too. Can I kiss you?"

He suddenly raised his head, and what caught his eye was Rorsch's deep eyes like black gems and a faint smile on his face.

Doubtfully, Penelope asked in a daze, "What did you say just now?"

"I mean, I want to kiss you, okay?"

Feeling the man's hot eyes, Penelope was very happy, and just nodded slightly, then closed his eyes without hesitation.

Seeing this, Roxa raised his mouth and leaned closer to his head, aimed at the pink cherry lips, and kissed him deeply.

Everything is indescribable...

...

The next day, Rorschach and Penelope got into the carriage under the ambiguous look of the black maid and returned to Valentine.

Along the way, Penelope leaned against Rorschach's shoulder like a bird, held his arms tightly with his hands, and his face was filled with a happy redness, as if he was immersed in a sweet love.

After breaking the last window paper, the relationship between the two is entering the next stage.

This is what Penelope has always wanted, and it is also the decision Rorschach made after repeated considerations.

Even if he will leave the world sooner or later, he will not be able to stay with Penelope.

However, we don’t seek eternity, we just want to have it once.

It would be enough if we could have each other during a period of time in each other's lives!

Under the full escort of five company security guards, the carriage slowly drove into the lively Valentine and finally stopped in front of the Roche Company's door.

Roxa got off the carriage first, then turned to look at the lady in the carriage:

"Penelope, you go home first, I'll handle the company's affairs."

"Well, I just learned a new dish. I'll make it for you to try later?"

"Okay, I'm looking forward to it."

After saying that, Roche was about to turn around, but Penelope grabbed his sleeve.

Just as he was confused, the girl leaned closer to her head, kissed him gently on the cheek, and told her softly:

"Come back early."

"I will."

Watching the carriage leave, Rorschach heard Mr. Johnson's sigh coming from behind:

“It’s great to be young…”

With a raised brow, Rorschach turned around and waved his hand to greet him: "Good noon, David."

"Good noon, I thought you would stay for another two days before coming back..."

“I prefer Valentine’s hustle and bustle than that manor.”

While talking, the two walked into the company's office side by side.

"Didn't anything happen during my absence?"

“What else can be done besides the constant orders of bicycles?”

He patted Johnson on the shoulder with satisfaction, and Rorsch suddenly remembered Bronte's trouble and frowned:

"By the way, we are being targeted at the factory in St. Denis. Someone may come to cause trouble recently. Please keep a little more eye on it. Especially those workers, protect them and let them work well and not be affected by any messy things."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Johnson seemed to understand something, and his expression was ashamed:

"I'll follow up on this matter right away."

"It's better to recruit a few more security personnel. But remember, don't look for them in St. Dennis."

"I see."

Using the small notebook and pen she carried with her, Mr. Johnson seemed to remember something suddenly, and then reminded:

"By the way, sir, Sheriff Maloy came here this morning and said that there was something to discuss with you."

"Oh, did he say something?"

"I didn't say in detail, but said that a man named Cornwall sent him a telegram."

When Roxa suddenly frowned when he heard this familiar and unfamiliar name.

Cornwall?!

Unexpectedly, I just met the mafia boss of St. Denis, and now another railway tycoon has come.

It's really a turbulent spring...

What did Cornwall send telegrams to Valentine's sheriff?

Thinking about it with your knees, I also know that it must be related to the Vanderlin Gang.

"I understand, you go and do it first."

As soon as he finished speaking, Rorschach took a step forward and walked towards the sheriff's office.

With a creaking sound, she saw Rorschach pushing the door open, and Sheriff Maloy, who was sitting behind the desk, suddenly stood up:

"Mr. Rorsch, are you back?"

"Well, I heard you have something to come to me?"

"Yes, do you know Leviticus Cornwall..."

"A little impression. What's wrong?"

"He sent us a telegram..."

After taking the paper handed over by Maloy, Rorschach looked down.

The content of the telegram is actually very simple.

Cornwall claimed he was hunting for a gang of wanted criminals named the "Van der Lin Gang" and then someone found their traces in Valentine.

So, in two days, he will arrive in Valentine, and then let Valentine's Sheriff Maloy cooperate with his arrest and not let the group of outlaws escape.

Obviously, Cornwall will definitely not come alone, and it will inevitably bring a large number of thugs.

Fortunately, Rochelle just took over as mayor of Valentine, and he learned the news.
