Connor wasn't surprised that Valga had discovered his actions. The location of magic artifacts was two-way. He could locate Valga, and Valga could also locate him. It wasn't hard to find traces of location on magic artifacts. In fact, Connor was very clear that Valga would quickly discover his location. However, her being able to find him so quickly made Connor a bit surprised.
"Connor, why did you ask me if I went to buy magic potions when you knew that I went to the Carlos Theater? You don't trust me, do you? " Seeing Connor remain silent, Valga asked coldly. Towards the end of her words, Valga couldn't control her emotions. Her voice trembled a little, and sparkling and translucent tears slid down her face.
Connor thought for a few seconds when he sensed the sadness in Varga's voice. He raised his head and said to Varga, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that. "
Obviously, Connor's answer wasn't the answer that Varga wanted. She smiled sadly and continued, "Connor, you still don't want to ask me why I went to the Carlos Theater."
"Varga, I respect your choice. If you're willing to tell me, you'll tell me. If you don't want to tell me, it's meaningless for me to ask you." Under Varga's resentful gaze, Connor shrugged and answered calmly.
"Since you're so smart, Connor, why did you still test me?"
Varga wiped the tears off her face and sneered at Connor. That was why she lost control of her emotions. She couldn't accept that Connor was testing her. When lovers tested each other, it meant that they didn't trust each other completely.
Connor fell silent. Although he didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that Valkao was right. Ever since he had transmigrated to this world, he had encountered an assassination attempt, followed by his mentor, Reyes. Ever since then, he had become paranoid. He was used to keeping a secret from everyone and didn't dare to fully trust others. Even though Valkao was the closest person to him in this world, Connor still maintained a trace of vigilance.
"Hmph!"
Varga snorted when she saw that Connor didn't say anything. The resentment in her eyes became more obvious. Just when Connor thought that Varga would leave in a fit of anger, Varga explained, "Connor, Adolf came to me the day after you left Flosinone."
Hearing Valga's explanation, Connor was slightly surprised. But thinking about it carefully, although Adolf looking for Valga sounded a little out of his expectations, it seemed to make sense. Although the Secret Society didn't lack potioneers, an official Magus like Valga was more than enough for the Secret Society to spend a lot of money to rope him in!
Seeing that Connor was deep in thought, Varga shook his head and said, "Connor, you're wrong. Although Adolf came here on behalf of Wang Jue, he didn't come to recruit me. Instead, he came to …"
Marguerite paused for a second. Looking at Connor's questioning eyes, Marguerite finally made up her mind and said to Connor, "Adolf asked me to help him concoct a potion. He was in a very urgent situation at the time, and you were out on business, so I couldn't ask for your opinion."
"But considering that you've always wanted to ally with the king's faction to deal with Reyes, after some consideration, in order to ease our relationship with the king's faction, I finally chose to agree to Adolf's request. Just now, in Kalos Theater, I gave the potion to Adolf!"
After saying that, Varga glanced at Connor's facial expression. He mustered up his courage and said to Connor, "Connor, you know that as a doctor, I have an obligation to keep my patients' identities and conditions a secret."
Connor understood the meaning behind Varga's words. He wanted to ask Varga who she was concocting the potion for and what the potion was used for. However, he was stunned. He didn't expect that Varga would use words to seal his mouth in advance. Looking at Varga's pleading eyes, he felt pity for her. Although he knew that as long as he asked, Varga would definitely tell him the answer, Connor didn't choose to break Varga's professional ethics as a doctor. He only nodded at Varga, indicating that he understood.
Seeing Connor nod, Varga's face finally revealed a surprised smile. The reason why she chose to lie to Connor was because she knew that if she told him the truth, with Connor's personality, he would definitely get to the bottom of everything. And she couldn't refuse Connor's inquiry. Therefore, Varga, who had a strong sense of medical ethics, was caught in a dilemma. In the end, under Connor's probing, she made a foolish decision in a hurry.
Varga, who explained clearly, looked relieved. However, she seemed to have thought of something. But due to the situation just now, she didn't dare to ask Connor directly. She could only look at Connor carefully, hesitating whether she should ask him.
Seeing this, Connor naturally knew what Varga wanted to ask. He pondered for a moment and said, "Before I left last time, I had already asked Aveloy to start preparing to investigate the background of our family. I think he should have some results by now. I'll go look for him now!"
Varga's eyes lit up when she heard this. Connor's promise to her was her biggest hope now. Before Connor spoke, Varga was naturally a little worried that today's incident would have some negative effects on her relationship with Connor. But now, Connor's words undoubtedly gave her a reassurance.
"Okay! Go and come back early! "Varga took the initiative to kiss Connor's cheek, then whispered in Connor's ear.
After saying goodbye to Varga, they walked out of Fati Hotel and headed in the direction of Aveloy's house. Connor's face gradually became gloomy.
Connor was absolutely furious that Varga refused to tell him who the potion was made for and what the effects of the potion were. In addition, this matter was related to Wang Jue's faction. For a moment, Connor even felt that Varga had betrayed him. There was even a moment when Connor had the thought of delaying his plan to marry Varga …
