Anna looked at Mark and Little Tim. They both looked at her blankly, waiting for her choice.

She just feels a headache.

Does she want to choose no one?

If she wants to rely on marriage to solve her troubles, she might as well work **** Parrish. It's impossible to be Parrish's wife. This class gap can't be crossed by her trying to hook Parrish, but as his lover, she should have no problem.

How can your own lover be bullied by other men? Parrish didn't seem to have such a strange sexual addiction.

"Thank you very much, but I already have a solution for this." Anna said, "I understand your kindness, but as I told you before, I will not consider marriage for a few years."

"Why... is it because of Bobby?" Mark couldn't help but ask. "Don't worry, I am completely different from him. I will never beat you."

Bobby's domestic violence beat his wife to death, for the unmarried girl, it is indeed a shadow. But there are many worse things in this world, and this shadow will not last long.

What most people think is that it’s good to live well right now. What do you think about such a long-term thing?

But Anna is accustomed to long-term planning. She doesn't want to be overwhelmed in front of her. She wants a bright, controllable future.

Even if the devil is staring at her life is worrying, even if Bobby is forced to marry, she is unwilling to change.

After Anna heard Mark's words, little Tim seemed to want to say something, probably because he thought his own small body could give her a sense of security, but she shook her head and said, "It's not the reason."

Little Tim slammed his face down.

Mark thought of another possibility and said: "Anna, I know I am not good enough. Don't worry, if you want to marry someone else, I will bless you."

Little Tim glanced at Mark, not wanting to lose to him, and said, "Me too!"

They are really two lovely boys.

Anna thought, if she considers getting married, she should give priority to them, but she does not want to get married now.

…Wait, speaking of it, if she is married now, will the devil chase her to propose marriage? Surely not. If you propose to a married person, the probability that the other person will agree is 0?

However, she suspects that the devil should have other ways of concluding a contract, but it is the easiest way to propose marriage.

Anna threw this unreliable idea out of her mind, smiled at the duo and said, "Thank you. It's late, you all go back and rest."

Although the two of them were disappointed, Anna refused in this way, and they couldn't stay stalking anymore, so they could only leave in disappointment.

Anna still held the flower Little Tim gave her. This should be the last flower Little Tim gave her. She gently held it and went home.

Rothgar, who was still in the dark, frowned unconsciously.

For just a moment, he thought about killing those two stupid human beings. Without them, Anna would lose her retreat and could only fall to his side, but she refused them.

She said there is a way, what can be done?

He stared at Parrish every day, Parrish didn't even know what trouble she was in, and even asked her to clarify the rumors, stifling her hope of solving the trouble.

It's not Parrish, it's not him, does she have other candidates?

Thinking of the nature of that human woman, Rothgar thought it was very possible.

The identities of Ulysses and Parish are too high for her, and the identities of the two idiots are too low. Her so-called method is probably to seduce a rich commoner or the lowest nobleman. Maybe she has been chosen.

If given her time, he believed that she would dare to think about Ulysses and Parrish, wasn't she what she was doing before? It was only the appearance of the old widower that disrupted her plan, which made her have to compromise.

Rothgar frowned and thought for a while, then sneered.

In vain, he also hoped that the trash old widower could force Anna to compromise, but instead let her fall to someone else. He didn't know who she was looking for, and he was tired of continuing to wait as before.

Rothgar is not a very patient person, especially to others. Waiting for a few days on a whim for the persecuting effect of the old widower has exhausted his little patience.

Those trash can't be counted on, he still has to do it himself.

Now that the old widower is useless, he can no longer let the other party influence his plans.

Rotgar came to this pomegranate lane for the second time and was not familiar with the place, but Ulysses's servant had been very comprehensive when investigating the situation of Anna's house, so he knew where the old widower's house was.

At this time, he was wearing a black robe, and his long light golden hair was wrapped in the hood of the robe, wrapping his whole figure tightly.

After a while, he stopped in front of a family and kicked the wooden door open.

In the room, Bobby has just started drinking, and wine is his favorite. He can skip meals but can't help drinking. The door was suddenly kicked open, and he was so scared that the wine in his hand was spilled on the ground, and he quickly lowered his head distressedly and sucked the liquid that was spilled on the back of his hand into his mouth.

Then he stared at the door and said fiercely: "Who are you!"

Just heard a sneer from the black robe: "Are you Bobby the Butcher?"

"Yes, it's me! What do you want to do?" Bobby didn't notice anything wrong. He stood up and wanted to put pressure on the opponent with a strong body, but he took a step forward and heard something simple in the black robe. One sentence seemed to have a slight smile, but the tone was indifferent and even cold.

"Yes."

In the next moment, Bobby felt a trace of warmth. The warmth rose from the soles of his feet and quickly spread upward, and the initial warmth quickly turned into unbearable scorching heat.

Bobby screamed, surrounded by bright tongues of fire, and he quickly turned into a burning man. Surrounded by flames, he could no longer breathe oxygen. The suffocation and the pain of being burned by the flames made his consciousness go crazy. He rolled all over the floor, and the tongue of fire licked the rest of the place with his movements.

When Bobby screamed, Rotgar turned around and went out.

He didn't bother to look at this waste being tortured, but if the screaming person were replaced by Anna, he would be much more interested.

Bobby's screams quickly attracted the attention of the residents of Lime Lane, and everyone walked out of the house to probe their heads, wanting to know what was going on.

Then, they saw the light from the butcher Bobby's house.

"It's on fire! Put out the fire!" Everyone hurriedly moved.

Their house is mainly made of stone and wood. If it is burned, the whole piece will not escape.

Not long after Anna returned to her home, she heard a faint scream, followed by the sound of fire fighting outside. She quickly asked Jem to look after Adele and Little Evan at home, and took it with Evan Gay. The clay pot rushed out.

When Anna took the water, she realized that it was the house of the butcher Bobby's house that was on fire. His son was standing outside crying, and the adults in Pomegranate Lane took turns to water the burning house.

Anna ran three times, and everyone worked together to put out the fire.

In the original house, there was only an empty shelf that had burnt more than half of it.

Someone lifted a charred corpse from the room, and many people were so scared to look away.

Anna heard someone say that Bobby must have spilled the wine on her body and accidentally burnt herself to death.

"It's the **** of death! The **** of death burned my father!" Bobby's son cried sharply. His always scarred face is dark at the moment, but his eyes are surprisingly bright, full of fear, or even What else.

Everyone couldn't help talking.

"This kid is crazy."

"Although Bobby always beats him, it is his father. How can he stand it when he sees his father burned alive!"

"Poor boy, what can I do in the future..."

Anna looked away from the coke-like corpse quickly.

It's such a coincidence, it was Bobby who died?

She quietly listened to the discussion of the people around her, and found that no one suspected that her house was set on fire and killed, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

According to the general process of criminal investigation dramas, some people died unclearly. The first person to be suspected was the person who had feuded with Bobby. Recently, it was her family who had conflicts with Bobby.

Probably because their family doesn't look like a villain who will set fire to kill people?

But did Bobby really missed and burned himself to death?

Anna looked at Bobby's child. He was still shouting "Reaper" hoarsely at the moment, but everyone thought he was irritated, and no one paid any attention to his words.

After confirming that all the sparks were extinct, everyone put the body of Bobby wrapped in old linen back in the house, and only waited for the body to be sent out of the city to be buried after dawn the next day.

And Bobby's child stopped shouting after his voice was dumb, and did not speak, and was temporarily taken care of by a kind person for the whole night. I heard that this child still has a kind aunt who can take him in. It was because Bobby even beat his younger sister. His sister hated him very much. There has been no contact between the two sides. Now that Bobby is dead, that sister is just going to be happy to die. , Will also be happy to put the child in a normal family.

The Anna family of three were silent on their way home.

Guy suddenly said: "This must be the goddess blessing!"

Anna turned her head to look at Guy. Guy’s expression at the moment is very complicated. On the one hand, Bobby is dead, and the troubles at home are gone. Everyone knows that the person who was injured by Evan was instigated by Bobby. She Of course she will be happy. On the other hand, this is a living life anyhow, and she instinctively feels sad because of the passing of her life.

But in the end, the happy mood prevailed.

"Thanks to the goddess." Evan prayed in a low voice, a smile gradually appeared on his face.

This matter, I am afraid it has nothing to do with the goddess.

Anna agreed and said "Thank you Goddess", but she never fell asleep after returning home.

Did Bobby really die by an accident? Or, did he die from the "god of death" that the kid said?

A **** of death who uses fire as a weapon.

She heard Abigail and the others said that Ulysses was best at fire spells.

And now, the demon was occupying Ulysses' body.

The next morning, Anna got up with dark circles under her eyes. When she passed the door of the butcher's house, she happened to see someone carrying Bobby's body out, leaving only the ruins of the original home.

When arriving at the earl’s mansion kitchen, Anna studied and worked step by step. Even when the rumors were the most raging before, Rebecca's attitude towards her has not changed, and she still tries her best to teach her, and she also learns very seriously.

There are very few decent jobs suitable for women in this world. Anna hopes that she can reserve more skills so that even if she does not work in the earl's house, she can rely on what she has learned here to get positions in other noble houses.

Working as a maid in a noble house is almost the best job for ordinary women in this world, with a decent and high salary. Many civilian women even survived by betraying their bodies.

Anna's work in the morning came to an end. It happened to be Parrish's meal time, and she took her food box and walked over.

Seeing Parrish and the demon who was always there like a twin with Parrish, Anna still pretended not to see the demon. While preparing breakfast for Parrish, she said: "Master Parrish, yesterday I I have clarified the facts to others, and the rumors that upset you will soon disappear."

Then produce new...

Anna added something in her heart, and then she was a little confused.

Originally, this new rumor was what she thought of as a way to fight against Bobby, but now that Bobby is dead, she doesn't need this new rumor at all.

Things are impermanent.

Anna thought so, and glanced at the demon. The other party seemed to have been looking at her. She looked at her and the two of them were in line with each other, and Anna quickly looked away.

If Bobby was killed by this demon...

Does it mean that her previous judgment was wrong, and the devil wanted to kill her, but there was no need to follow the rules she had imagined?

"Very good, dear, I appreciate your obedience and decisiveness." Parrish smiled, "This is a very rare character."

Anna said respectfully: "Thank you very much for Master Parrish's compliment, I am just making up for my mistake."

Parrish smiled, this little thing, after knowing that Anna had done what he said, he just left it behind. If Anna hadn't mentioned this matter today, he would have forgotten it a long time ago, and he might remember this rumor next time.

After Parrish finished eating, Anna packed up and left.

She was still a little worried that the devil would stop her, but until she returned to the kitchen, the devil ignored her.

But when a face-to-face man came to the kitchen to look for her, Anna knew that she was too happy.

The man claimed to be a servant of Mage Ulysses Russell, and called for Anna to send the Mage some food.

Because of the servant's presence, when Rebecca prepared the food, the entire kitchen preparation room was quiet, until Anna followed the servant to leave, and there was a sudden voice behind her.

Even when Rebecca handed the food box to Anna, her expression was somewhat hesitant.

Anna thought silently, she is probably going to be put on a "little girl" hat. "Master Parrish asked everyone not to spread rumors in order to prevent the rumors from hurting her" rumors were still brewing, and another noble master began to join the battlefield...

If she is an outsider, she would think how good she is.

Kelly once said in a chat that the small building where Ulysses the mage lived was very gloomy, and Anna followed Ulysses' servants to realize that Kelly was right.

This is a small building on the west side of the garden. The exterior wall is covered with some kind of climbing plants. Even the glass windows are covered a lot. Compared with the sun room outside Parrish's bedroom, it feels like two worlds.

The devil was waiting for Anna in the dining room of the small building. The servant took her back and quietly stepped back. There were only two people left in the room with insufficient light.

Anna said hello first, and then took out the same food in the food box.

Rothgar was sitting at the round wooden table, and since Anna came in, he hadn't looked away from her.

When Anna put down the last food and prepared to retreat, Rotgar said: "The old widower is dead, are you very happy."

Like a question, but without any doubt, he was very sure.

Old widower?

Hmm...It's Bobby the Butcher?

Anna didn't expect the devil to speak out directly, looking at him in surprise.

Although she had guessed that he did it, but he admitted personally, how could she not be surprised?

And... Generally speaking, he is probably thousands of years old as a demon, so how am I ashamed to say that a human being with a longest life span is less than 100 years old?

"You...killed Bobby?" Anna asked as if confirming.

She didn't expect that being watched by the devil would have such "benefits". Thinking that the devil didn't want to be snatched by others, she burned Bobby cruelly.

If she still fails to meet his wishes, he might also burn her angrily.

"Of course it's me." Rotgar looked at Anna coldly and asked with a smile, "How do you plan to repay me?"

How to repay? The reward he wanted was nothing more than her soul.

And of course she would not give it to him.

Anna took a short step back, her throat swelled with tension, and her voice was very soft: "My Excellency Ulysses, I did not ask you to kill Bobby."

She didn't let him kill anyone, so he did it himself, and then came to her for payment. Isn't this strong buying and selling!
