Only you in my love

Chapter 856 The Statue Of The Countess

She said uncertainly, "Cara, I seem to have seen it somewhere."

"Have you seen this statue?" Caroline said, "I have checked it. There is no record of this statue on the

Internet, and there are few records about this square. I've asked Selena about it, but she doesn't

know."

Michelle stared at the face of the statue for a long time. The more she looked at it, the more familiar

she felt. It seemed that she had really seen her somewhere, but the outline was very blurred, and she

could not remember.

"I'm not talking about this statue. I'm talking about this person." She thought for a while and said,

"Maybe it's just that the person I've seen looks like this statue. I don't remember who it is."

Michelle handed the camera to Caroline. Caroline answered, "Maybe it's a coincidence. According to

the degree of damage of the statue, it should have a history of forty or fifty years. Let's ask the elders

nearby to see if we can get something valuable."

Hearing the conversation between the two, the landlady who came over said enthusiastically, "Are you

talking about the statue?"

Caroline raised her head and asked, "Yes, madam, do you know who the statue is?"

"I don't know. My mother-in-law just mentioned a few words about it. But unfortunately, my mother-in-

law passed away. Otherwise, you can ask her. She likes telling stories very much." The landlady looked

at the statue in the middle of the fountain and recalled it carefully.

"My mother-in-law said that the statue was a countess. She funded and designed the square. It was

said that it was very lively more than 40 years ago, and it was a tourist resort. Many men and women

liked to date here and throw coins in front of the fountain to make wishes.

At that time, I just learned to walk. I don't know who the countess is. My mother-in-law said that she

was a beauty and had a good heart. Later, her whereabouts were unknown. Maybe her kindness

offended the capitalist." The landlady looked a little regretful.

"What do you mean by that? What happened?" Caroline asked.

Michelle listened carefully and was curious about the story of the countess.

The landlady smiled, "It's just a rumor. And it's rumored that she died of illness. Her family members

were afraid that they would miss her when they saw the statue, so they ordered to close this square. I

married my husband for two or three years before the square was unsealed here and it became more

and more lively slowly.

But my mother-in-law had always said that the countess was not dead but went someplace. No one

knew where the countess was and her whereabouts were unknown. My mother-in-law also said that

someone wanted to hurt the countess. When my mother-in-law was still alive, she liked to take a chair,

hold a sunshade, and read books by the fountain. She wore a pair of presbyopic glasses, and read the

same book. She always fell asleep before reading two pages.

On the day my mother-in-law passed away, she fell asleep in the chair. She died in peace." The

landlady paused for a moment and added, "I seem to have said too much. I hope you won't feel me

annoying."

"No, no, no." With her clear eyes wide open, Michelle said with a gentle smile and respect. "Thank you

for telling us this."

"It's okay. Enjoy your meal."

Caroline asked, "Madam, do you know the name of that countess?"

"I don't know." The landlady shook her head. "No one knows her name, but I think my mother-in-law

should know. Sometimes I always feel that my mother-in-law and that countess know each other, and

they may be good friends."

In fact, both Michelle and Caroline had this feeling. When Caroline recalled what the landlady had said, Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

an idea suddenly occurred to her. "Is the book your mother-in-law often read still here?"

"No. My mother-in-law took it away."

"Okay." Caroline smiled in disappointment.

Michelle asked curiously, "Cara, why do you ask that book?"

"I think it might be the countess send her the book. I want to see if there is any information about the

countess in that book." Caroline raised her head and looked at the old statue, with a little regret in her

eyes.

Perhaps it was because she had been staring at the statue for a long time that when she looked back

at Michelle, she felt that Michelle's eyes were a little similar to the eyes of the statue.

The landlady suddenly exclaimed, "Oh, you reminded me!"

Michelle and Caroline looked at her at the same time.

"There is a name on my mother-in-law's book. It's too old and the name is blurred. My son carefully

read it for a long time and only recognized one word. That's Monna." Said the landlady.

After the photography, Caroline searched online for "Monna", but still got nothing. However, she found

a piece of information with the key words "the countess".

There used to be a countess in the Nangong Family. Her name was unknown, and there was no photo

of her.

She still got nothing.

She went to find Michelle, because Michelle knew the current Count Nangong in the C Island, Vicente.

Michelle asked Vicente about it, but Vicente didn't know either.

It seemed that there was no such a person, as if she was made up.

They couldn't get any information useful and had no choice. Caroline had to give up. However, Michelle

had always kept the story of the countess in her mind. The more she thought about it, the more familiar

she felt with that face.

In the next three days, Michelle was concentrating on her work as an assistant. The complicated work

made her not have time to think about it. Every night, she fell asleep with the silent call, but she did not

notice that there was anything wrong.

The day before Michelle was about to leave the C Island, Leon called her, saying that he was still

abroad and couldn't come back to see her off, and that if everything went well, he would definitely see

her on the Lantern Festival.

The five year old birthday of Van and Don was on the Lantern Festival. Leon would definitely go to the

Lexingport City to celebrate these two nephews' birthday.

Thinking she would meet him on the Lantern Festival, Michelle immediately became energetic and

happy. After hanging up the phone, she went out hand in hand with Caroline.

Selena had prepared a farewell banquet for the two of them and booked the venue in the most

luxurious restaurant in the C Island. Next to it was a luxury hotel, which shared a parking lot with the

restaurant.

As soon as the two of them got out of the car, Michelle unexpectedly saw a familiar figure.

With his side facing her, his side face was only seen. He was standing straight, as if waiting for

someone.

Michelle rubbed her eyes, thinking that she might have made mistakes. But when she opened her eyes

again, it was still that person.

"What's wrong? Do you know him?" Caroline found that she had been staring at a man, but the man

didn't notice them.

Michelle nodded, "He's Noah. Why is he here? Come here to handle the case? A transnational case?"

Noah was low-key and seldom showed up in the activities of the upper class. He was always busy with

the safety of the people and dealing with the criminals. Caroline knew that there were two young sons

in the Ye Family, but she didn't know Noah. She only knew the current president of the Ye Group,

Henry.

"A policeman?" Caroline looked at him up and down carefully who looked righteous. "Maybe he's busy

with his work. Don't bother him. Let's go upstairs."

"Okay." Michelle also thought so

When they turned around and was about to leave, another familiar face appeared into the views of the

two. Caroline knew this man. She still could recognize him even though he wore a mask.

"That's... It's Count Nangong, right?"

"Yes." Michelle also recognized him, because Vicente was the shorter one among the men she had

met in the C Island, about 1.72 meter height.

She thought for a while. Noah was a good friend of Nina, and Vicente was also a good friend of Nina.

So it was not strange that they knew each other.

But both Michelle and Caroline still stopped. They watched Vicente approaching Noah step by step.

Compared with Noah's height of more than 1.8 meter, Vicente looked a little petite, losing a lot of

imposing manner.

Especially when the two approached each other, Noah reached out to pull the mask of Vicente, as if he

was going to bully Vicente.

"Do they have a grudge against each other?" Caroline asked.

"No, maybe..." Michelle glanced at Caroline with uncertainty. The next second, she saw that Caroline's

pupils suddenly dilated and Caroline raised her hand to cover her mouth.

She seemed to be shocked.

"What's wrong?" Before Caroline reached out to stop Michelle, Michelle had turned around and looked

over. Then Michelle was stunned. At that moment, Michelle even forgot to breathe.
