Sister, look at him!

Chapter 391 When the Rose Withers 14

Zane was about to go out when he saw Carol getting off the carriage. He was surprised. Didn’t Mrs. Perry reject him sternly?

"Mr. Cape." Carol was also extremely surprised. She saw Zane as soon as she arrived. That was great. She could finally stop bleeding.

"Ms. Crane." Zane was a little flattered by Carol's surprise when she saw him. Does this mean that Carol also has feelings for him?

"My hand is hurt." Carol stretched out her hand, with a red handkerchief wrapped around her white palm.

Zain was a little confused. There was no wound? But he didn't say it clearly. Instead, he looked into Carol's eyes and made fun of her. "Do you need me to find a doctor for you?"

Carol endured the pain and said, "Well, please be quick, it hurts."

She really wanted to shed a few tears like her cousin, but perhaps she had cried all her tears at home, so she couldn't shed a single tear at this moment.

Zane was surprised at Carol's acting skills and immediately called the servant to ask for a doctor.

"Miss Crane, it's windy outside, let's go inside and talk." Zane moved aside to invite Carol, forgetting that he was about to go out.

Carol nodded and took a few steps forward, closer to Zane.

When he got closer, Zane could actually smell the slightest smell of blood. He looked at Carol's hand in doubt, "Miss Crane, can you let me see your wound?"

Carol naturally would not refuse. She raised her arm and gently took off the soaked white handkerchief, revealing the deep wound on her palm.

There was no way Zane could admit that he was frightened by Carol at this moment.

He treated Carol's hand as if she were a rare treasure, and bent down carefully to hold it.

Carol even spoke directly, "Mr. Cape, do you feel bad because of my injury?"

This bold statement stunned everyone present.

Even Zain, who was used to big scenes, was stunned.

Zane didn't answer directly, but threw the question back to Carol, "Why do you ask?"

Carol was also sincere and spoke the truth, "My cousin once said that if you love someone, you will feel sorry for the pain she suffers. Mr. Capet, do you want to marry me because you love me? Then will you feel sorry for my pain?"

Zain found it a little ridiculous that the blood from the wound soaked the entire handkerchief, but she did it just to prove to him whether he loved her or not.

This is... so ridiculous.

But inexplicably, Zane felt a surge of excitement he had never felt before.

He bowed his head almost devoutly and gently kissed the palm of Carol's hand. His voice was low, like a whisper, "I feel bad, Carol, I feel bad right now..."

No, not enough.

Carol pulled her hand back and called Zane by name, “Zane, when will you marry me?”

……

After treating the wound on her arm, Mrs. Perry felt a little tired. She called out to Anne, "Annie, have you packed Carol's things?"

Anne lowered her eyes and said, "Not even a little bit."

Mrs. Perry asked again, "Where's Carol? Is she still sad?"

Anne stammered and couldn't explain clearly.

Mrs. Perry felt something was wrong. She didn't dare to be tired anymore. She sat upright on the sofa and asked again, "Where's Carol?"

This time, before Annie could answer, Carol's happy voice came from the door, "Aunt, Zane said he wanted to give me a castle."

When Mrs. Perry saw her innocent, pure and kind niece walk in with the cold-hearted and cruel Zane, she felt like the sky was falling.

The matter has come to this, and there is no other way.

After sending Zane away, Mrs. Perry taught Carol the knowledge that she was most reluctant to teach her.

Before, she always hoped that Carol could be with someone she loved. Love does not require skills, only the purest feelings.

Even without love, it's great to be with Edwin, who has the same values ​​as me.

But it had to be Zane.

All kinds of tricks came out of Mrs. Perry's mouth and turned around in Carol's mind again and again.

Carol vaguely felt that she didn't need all these. In her opinion, she only needed to stand there and countless people would come to propose to her.

But since her aunt taught her, she might as well learn it seriously.

……

The afternoon sunshine is so nice.

Carol sat in the courtyard copying poetry.

Zain had promised her that he would marry her after this month, and all she had to do now was wait.

Zain also said that they were not married yet, and she should avoid going to the Duke's Mansion these days as it would have a bad influence.

Carol didn't want to listen to his nonsense, she still wanted to find Edwin.

Edwin has not fully recovered yet. Although he can get out of bed and move around freely, he still has to avoid the wind. He cannot go anywhere and can only stay in the Duke's Mansion.

If Carol doesn't go to accompany him, no one will be there.

After putting the copied poems together, Carol rubbed her sore wrist. Now she was going to the Duke's Mansion to find Edwin!

ducal mansion.

Zain was busy, very busy, and what he was busy with was his wedding with Carol. Carol pushed him too hard, so he hadn't prepared anything yet, so he could only start preparing as fast as possible from now on.

Zane was not in the Duke's Mansion, and the old Duke and Duchess of Capet were also out. In the huge mansion, Edwin was the only owner left.

Carol walked into the Duke's Mansion. The servants were already familiar with her and they all bowed respectfully to the future hostess.

Finding a random servant, Carol asked her, "Where's Edwin?"

Came to see Edwin?

The maid who was asked had a strange look in her eyes. “Miss Crane, isn’t she Master Zane’s fiancée?”

Seeing that no one was talking, Carol was not good-tempered enough to reprimand her, but asked another person, "Is Edwin in the room?"

This time it was an older maid who asked, she stepped aside and said, "Miss Crane, please follow me."

Today was a rare good day, the afternoon sun was warm, Edwin was sitting in the courtyard, leaning against the back of a chair and taking a nap, the sun shining on his face, giving him a layer of soft light.

Edwin looks somewhat similar to Zane, but unlike Zane's indifference, he is always happy and a bit childish.

Carol walked closer and saw a half-read copy of Macbeth on the table next to Edwin.

Edwin opened his eyes when he heard the noise, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, "Carol? Why are you here?"

"I came to play with you." Carol showed a childish smile, "There's a performance of Macbeth at the Opal Theater today, do you want to go with us?"
