Han Shuo didn't express any opinion on the latter part of the conversation between Lawrence and the others. He was only pondering about the influence that lunatic Firenze would have on him after arriving at Ossen City.
According to what Han Shuo had promised Fanny, he understood that since Firenze had arrived at Ossen City, he and Firenze would definitely meet very soon. Now that Han Shuo already had two women, Phoebe and Emily, this matter would be exposed sooner or later. Once Fanny came to know of this matter, it was unknown what kind of reaction she would have!
Phoebe was the same. She had just walked out of Emily's matter and from the looks of it, her anger had yet to dissipate. If Fanny were to be added into the mix, it would be impossible for her to not reveal the truth. Unfortunately, at this stage, there was no way to conceal it no matter how one looked at it.
"Brian, Brian!" Lawrence suddenly shouted twice.
Han Shuo was abruptly roused. He looked at Lawrence in astonishment and asked, "What?"
"What do you think we should do next? Charles is our primary opponent. Do you have any good ideas?" Lawrence looked at Han Shuo with sparkling eyes, seeking Han Shuo's opinion.
Han Shuo was currently in a state of confusion and didn't seriously listen to the discussion of Lawrence and the others. He shook his head and said, "I don't have any good ideas."
Hearing Han Shuo's words and seeing Han Shuo's somewhat worried expression, Lawrence understood that Han Shuo might have some thoughts in his heart. He nodded and didn't continue asking. Instead, he continued to discuss matters with those nobles who were inclined towards him.
Not long after, the group finished discussing matters. Those nobles left Lawrence in succession, including Emily and Old Hahn, leaving only Phoebe, Lawrence and Han Shuo.
"Brian, many thanks for introducing Mister Crowley to me, allowing me to have such a powerful grand magus by my side!" After those people left, Lawrence very sincerely thanked Han Shuo.
Han Shuo was stunned for a moment before he reacted and said, "That Crowley defected to you?"
"Yes, Mister Crowley said that he only decided to come to my side after your persuasion." Lawrence smiled as he explained to Han Shuo.
"Alright, Lawrence, I have some things to discuss with Phoebe, so I'll be leaving first!" Han Shuo thought for a moment and said to Lawrence.
"Mm, alright, you guys can leave first." Lawrence smiled and stood up to send them off.
Phoebe pouted as if she was still angry at Han Shuo. She returned to her carriage under Lawrence's escort. Han Shuo hesitated for a moment, but then thought that most people knew about his relationship with Phoebe, so he immediately went in as well.
Now that things had progressed to this point, it was likely that he could no longer conceal his relationship with the three girls. Han Shuo seriously pondered for a moment and decided that he might as well let go and tell the three girls everything. Emily was the only one among the three who wouldn't fuss too much about it. In addition, Emily was in the Dark Mantle and vaguely knew something, so Han Shuo wasn't worried about her.
Only Phoebe and Fanny were the two biggest problems. He couldn't conceal it even if he wanted to. If they discovered it themselves, the situation would be even worse. At this point, Han Shuo really didn't have any good ideas and could only go all out and tell them the truth.
In the elegant carriage, Han Shuo's face was deep and silent. Phoebe's anger towards Han Shuo hadn't subsided yet. She also pouted and didn't say a word. The atmosphere in the carriage was a little stiff for a moment.
After a while, Han Shuo took a deep breath and turned his head to look at Phoebe. He said in a low voice, "Phoebe, apart from you and Emily, I have another woman!"
Phoebe's eyebrows twitched, her eyes overflowing with a light of disbelief. Her delicate body trembled slightly, showing signs of rage. She clenched her teeth and stared at Han Shuo, saying in a sharp voice, "What, what did you say?"
"Apart from you and Emily, I have another woman. Her name is Fanny, my former teacher. She is also the woman I liked the first." Han Shuo's voice was low and he sighed after saying this.
"What, what do you mean? What are you trying to say by telling me all this? " Phoebe's anger couldn't be contained. Emily was already difficult for her to accept. Now that Han Shuo suddenly said that he had another woman, Phoebe's mind was buzzing and her heart was aching.
"She is a teacher in my academy. From the beginning, she took good care of me …" Han Shuo said in a low voice about his relationship with Fanny. He then sighed and looked at Phoebe, saying, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have lied to you. That's because I didn't want you to be sad. That's all. I'm telling you so much not because I want you to forgive me, but because I'm telling you the truth. I'm really a bad person like you said, and a very bad one at that."
"Go, go! I don't want to see you again!" Phoebe's tears flowed uncontrollably as she screamed shrilly.
Han Shuo looked at Phoebe, who had lost control of her emotions, and suddenly felt a strong sourness in his heart. Han Shuo knew that it was useless to say anything at this time, so he only nodded at Phoebe and flew out of the carriage.
Phoebe was a headstrong person. Han Shuo had long since understood that such an independent woman wouldn't easily forgive his lies. Perhaps it was because Phoebe had deep feelings for him that she felt so hurt when she heard Han Shuo's words today.
Suddenly, Han Shuo understood that the sadness of the woman he loved so dearly was no less painful to him than what Phoebe was feeling. Han Shuo also felt an extreme pain in his heart. With the intense pain in his heart, Han Shuo headed towards the necromancy major of the Babylon Academy of Magic and Force.
When Han Shuo arrived at Phoebe's laboratory in the necromancy major, he had just finished his lunch. Fanny's vanity had been greatly satisfied after Han Shuo's arrival a few days ago, and she had been in a good mood for the past few days.
When she pushed open the door to the laboratory, intending to rest for a while, she suddenly saw Han Shuo sitting on a chair in the room. Han Shuo was currently in a trance and his face was a bit pale. He sat there with a gloomy face and didn't say a word, as if he had something weighing thousands of kilograms on his mind.
With just a glance, Fanny suddenly discovered that Han Shuo was completely different from before. In the past, Han Shuo had always been full of fighting spirit, or had a cheeky smile on his face, and had never been serious. He had never been as absent-minded as he was today.
"Brian, what, what's wrong with you? Are you sick? " Fanny was a bit flustered and rushed to Han Shuo's side, raising her hand to touch Han Shuo's forehead.
Hearing Fanny's voice, Han Shuo woke up with a start. Looking at Fanny, who was full of worry for him, Han Shuo's heart was even more pained. After staring blankly for a while, perhaps Han Shuo wanted to feel more of Fanny's tenderness, so he only gazed deeply at Fanny's gentleness, and carefully savored the warmth of Fanny's warm hands.
"What's wrong, why aren't you saying anything? What's wrong with you?" Fanny saw that Han Shuo didn't say a word and only stared blankly at her. She appeared even more flustered and impatiently questioned Han Shuo, her face full of worry.
"Fanny, I'm sorry!" Staring blankly at Fanny, Han Shuo didn't know if this kind of tenderness would continue to exist after the truth was said, but he knew that he couldn't avoid it. In the end, he sighed and said to Fanny, "Are you sick?
"Are you sick? Why are you saying these things out of nowhere?" Fanny smiled and withdrew her warm hand from Han Shuo's forehead. She gently looked at Han Shuo's eyes and said with a smile.
For some reason, Han Shuo didn't dare to look directly at Fanny's bright eyes and lowered his head guiltily. Han Shuo's heart moved. He suddenly remembered that he and Fanny hadn't had a physical relationship yet. So as long as he told the truth to Fanny, it probably wouldn't cause too much harm to Fanny.
For the people he loved, Han Shuo had never been a heartless person. The reason why Han Shuo concealed the truth for such a long time was that, on the one hand, he selfishly enjoyed the wonderful feeling of hugging them, and on the other hand, he didn't want to be heartless and bring harm to them.
However, now, Han Shuo suddenly understood that his method of concealing the truth would indeed not bring harm to them in the short term, but this method would bring them a lifetime of pain.
Because of this, Han Shuo made up his mind to tell the truth to both sides honestly. However, Han Shuo, who was guilty and in the wrong, didn't dare to face the tenderness in Fanny's eyes. Under Fanny's urgent inquiry, Han Shuo also said in a low voice, "In addition to you, I have two other women. I'm sorry!"
Fanny's small hand that was gently stroking Han Shuo's hair suddenly stopped. Han Shuo could raise his head to look and suddenly found that Fanny's movements were stiff and stunned. Her gentle eyes were filled with helplessness and pain, and her rosy lips turned pale. She couldn't help but squirm as if she wanted to say something, but no sound came out.
Two streaks of tears flowed down her smooth face and all the way to Fanny's neck. After a long, long time, Fanny's colorless eyes focused on Han Shuo. She looked miserable and said softly in a bitter voice, "Brian, are you telling me this because you want to break off relations with me?"
Han Shuo was stunned and didn't understand Fanny's behavior. According to Han Shuo's thoughts, Fanny should be as furious as Phoebe and desperate to drive him out of this place. He didn't expect that Fanny would have such a miserable expression at this moment, like a helpless flower bud that had bloomed.
A strong sense of self-blame suddenly surged into Han Shuo's heart. Han Shuo's eyes turned red, and he pulled Fanny into his arms. He choked with sobs, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault, I'm sorry …"
"Brian, I, I already knew about the matter between you and Miss Phoebe." Fanny said in a faint voice. She then used all her strength to hug Han Shuo tightly, as if she was afraid that Han Shuo would leave her side.
Han Shuo's face was dull, and he subconsciously hugged Phoebe tightly. His mind was filled with a series of questions. How did she know? How did she know?
"You are a dazzling star of the Empire. Everything related to you is widely spread, including some matters between you and Miss Phoebe. It's funny that you still deceive yourself into thinking that I don't know about it. When I first heard this news, I didn't believe it. However, through my own understanding, I finally believed this fact. Ha, I'm really a weak woman. I should have kept my distance from you from the beginning and didn't dare to be tempted by you. However, when you were not around, my mind was filled with your shadow, and I could never get rid of it.
I'm sorry, I can't do it!
Even though I know that you already have Miss Phoebe, I still can't leave you. As long as I think that we will never meet again, my heart will be suffocated with sadness. You may never understand this feeling. I'm useless. I can't get out of the whirlpool of your feelings, and instead, I can't extricate myself from it … "Fanny muttered in a self-deprecating voice in Han Shuo's arms. Her voice was full of helplessness and misery.
Han Shuo's pretense of being infallible was ruthlessly torn apart by his heartfelt words. Han Shuo was dizzy with an incomparably strong sense of happiness. Although this kind of happiness carried an extremely bitter taste, although this kind of happiness caused Han Shuo's lips to dry up and his eyes to turn red, and his indomitable heart to become weak …
"I know, Phoebe is a good woman. You came here this time because you've made up your mind to leave me, right?" Fanny murmured in a self-pitying voice. Her tone was indescribably bitter and depressed. Her tears were like a broken string of pearls, dripping on Han Shuo's shoulder in big drops.
"No!" Han Shuo growled in a low voice. "I will never leave you, never! I've said so much just to ask for your forgiveness. I've never thought of leaving you! I'm sorry, it's all my fault, it's all my fault … "
Fanny's delicate body trembled slightly. She suddenly stood up straight from Han Shuo's chest. Her tearful eyes were filled with inexplicable expectation. She stared at Han Shuo's face. Her trembling voice was filled with disbelief. "Brian, you, you're serious?"
Nodding his head heavily, Han Shuo had never been as serious and serious as he was now. He promised in a choked voice, "As long as you don't leave me, I'll never let go and leave you first. I promise!"
"But, I've experienced two years of torture and pain. Only then did I realize the fact that I can never leave you. I don't mind the existence of you, Miss Phoebe, and other women. But, I'm afraid that Miss Phoebe will mind my existence, right? "Fanny said bitterly.
"I don't know, but I'll give her and myself some time. Perhaps, she'll make a good decision in the end. But no matter what her decision is, it won't change our relationship. It definitely won't! "Han Shuo said resolutely.
Fanny's eyes were filled with uncontrollable surprise and happiness. She took the initiative to hug Han Shuo tightly again. She stood on her tiptoes and kissed Han Shuo passionately. Her hands even boldly reached into Han Shuo's clothes. As she caressed Han Shuo's strong body, she also tried to help Han Shuo take off his clothes.
