Chapter 236(2/2)

Not far from the villa that Allen rented, Bill Hayden also temporarily rented a villa specifically to host this reception banquet.

The burgundy sixth-generation Rolls-Royce Phantom parked slowly. Allen got out of the car first, put on his light-colored soft top hat, and then very gentlemanly stretched out his hand to take Nicole, who was wearing a white evening dress, out of the car.

Bill Hayden stood by the car with an uneasy look on his face. After watching Allen and Nicole get out of the car, he whispered: "Sir, I'm very sorry. There are some emergencies in Sydney during this time. For your sake,

It’s safe, so I changed my address temporarily to cause trouble for you.”

Letting go of Nicole's hand, Allen said as he walked: "What's wrong?"

He hasn't read any newspapers recently. What's going on in Australia? Can it still threaten his safety?

"Well, it was a group of gang members from Huaguowan Province. They made some noise and injured many people. We also lost a policeman."

Bill Hayden explained quietly.

This is so embarrassing. Your Excellency has finally done this once, and now something like this happens again.

"oh?"

Allen suddenly thought, no wonder Boss Cha asked him to be more honest in the past two years. Is it so chaotic outside now?

He twitched his lips and said, "Just change it. I won't be able to stay for a few days after the banquet."

"Ah? Your Majesty, why don't you stay here for a few more days?"

Bill Hayden instinctively opened his mouth to hold back, but as soon as he finished speaking, even he became embarrassed. He had just said that it was not safe here, and now he was holding back, this.

Allen lowered his head slightly, glanced at Bill Hayden, and didn't answer.

Regardless of whether it is safe or not, he has to go to Xiangjiang in a hurry. If he plays for a while, it will be too late. He can't rush to go when Boss Cha arrives.

It would be so embarrassing when we actually met.

At the entrance to the lobby of the main building of the villa, there were about twenty guests in costumes standing densely packed.

Men wear a dark tuxedo jacket and gray trousers.

The ladies are a bit more fancy, with all kinds of colorful dresses. Regardless of their appearance, these clothes look very good.

But just look at the figure and appearance

It's hard to tell the truth. These guests are basically all forty or even fifty years old, old guys.

As the crowd watched the Governor bring a tall young man over, an extremely depressing buzz could not stop.

Some of these people saw the British nobles at such a close distance for the first time in their lives.

This nobility does not refer to a lord or the like, but a real nobility, a hereditary nobility!

Because the British aristocracy behaves in such a low-key manner, many people's impression of this group now, except in movies, is that of the prodigal sons of the little aristocracy who hang out like street kids on a fashionable street in London every day.

young people.

But the person I saw today was different. From a distance, the innate nobility came to my face. He was dressed in extremely low-key and simple clothes, and even his walking posture was extremely calm. He followed

The governor next to him is more like a servant than his Excellency.

"Your Excellency, let me introduce you."

After alleviating the embarrassment, Bill Hayden, who accompanied Allen all the way, and took the initiative to stay one step behind Allen, saw that he was approaching the hall, and took the initiative to step forward and start introducing guests to Allen in order.

There are parliamentarians from various places who are close to him as the governor, as well as some wealthy local Australian businessmen.

There were even two scholars at the end.

Anyway, all these miscellaneous people can be called Australia's local elite.

One of the old men looked like his hair was white. When he reached out to shake Allen's hand, his eyes were red and he looked extremely excited.

His reaction left Allen a little confused. Is this a bit exaggerated?

As for that?

Allen suppressed his embarrassment and patted him on the shoulder.

Just like that, the old man became even more excited. He pursed his lips and twitched his face, wanting to say something, but Allen waited for a long time and didn't hear him speak.

It was Bill Hayden who took the initiative to relieve the siege and said in a low voice: "Sir, this is a descendant who came from Wales back then. Their ancestor was one of your family's guards."

Um?

Is there any way for future generations to mix it up?

Allen looked at the old man who nodded excitedly, and then he understood the origin of this.

It turns out that he is the descendant of the guard who was sent from the Hill family to guide the work. Meeting an old friend in a foreign land, no, this is meeting the master in a foreign land. No wonder the old man was so excited to see him.

Time was limited, so Allen asked him a few questions about his health. The old man was so excited that he couldn't speak clearly, so he had to go to the banquet hall first and wait until he had time to chat later.

Nicole held Allen's arm and looked at the Australian elites vaguely surrounding Allen in the hall.

After greeting them at the door, they entered the banquet hall. Although some people wanted to continue to come and talk to the Earl, the rules were the rules. Allen would not call them. They had to work hard to show their self-cultivation and pretend to be with others.

The way of socializing in a low voice.

But these people were not far away from Allen. They even squinted their eyes in this direction as they spoke, hoping that the Excellency would call them and have a few words with them in public.

In the past, although Nicole's family was considered wealthy,...

No matter how rich she is, compared with these truly powerful people, her family is not impressive enough. Now these classes that she had no contact with in the past are now like a group of licking dogs, vaguely surrounding the people around her.

.

Even when these people looked at me, the looks they cast were so friendly, indifferent, and cultivated, completely losing the condescending feeling of the past.
