After giving a few other instruction to the servants, Aurora sat on her table.
She had confirmed that Adela’s notes were correct, but she had no intention to fully trust those notes. Yet at the same time, she didn’t want to let things develop in the way Adela wanted it to be.
Because at the end of the notes, it was written about her ending.
Ah, how amusing.
The fate is not yet set in stone and Aurora would start her preparation. She thought that she would be able to live peacefully with her sister, but if Adela started to target her...
She had to have a way out.
...
<Marquis Brown’s Residence>
After Duchess Isabella and the other two daughters left, Marques Brown took a deep breath. She felt that dealing with these three people were really tiring.
’The schemes have already started, huh?’
Not that Marques Brown had never heard about it, but she felt that it was really troublesome. Thankfully, Marquis Brown Family was always neutral in this matter and would not side with any of them.
But Marques Brown felt rather tired.
There was only one crown prince and the younger prince was truly unsuitable to become the crown prince with Crown Prince Edward there. In any case, the King had already determined that Prince Edward is the Crown Prince.
But this prince couldn’t stay quiet.
To think that the young crown prince would come here to meet with her son, Marques Brown sighed.
What attracted her the most was the Duke White’s Family performance after that.
"Annelie, can you tell me what Miss Aurora White said to you during your conversation and what happened?" Marques Brown asked.
"Yes?" Annelie was stunned and then thought hard. It seemed that Aurora mostly asked some questions and flattered them that Annelie didn’t really remember what Aurora said.
Seeing her daughter like this, Marques Brown’s eyes deepened.
She turned to the maids and asked about Aurora’s movement. Upon knowing that Aurora left the main hall for a short period of time, Marques Brown looked at the door towards the room where Adela slept in for a while.
There was no proof.
But Marques Brown felt that Aurora should have known that Adela was inside and talked with Crown Prince Edward for a brief moment.
From the way it looked like, they have a pleasant conversation.
"Mother?" Annelie asked in a low voice.
"It’s really hard to find a decent man," Marques Brown said in a low voice and chuckled. "Who do you think better, Miss Aurora or Miss Adela?"
Annelie didn’t answer and looked at her mother doubtfully. It was rare for her mother to ask her to evaluate others like this.
"In what aspect, Mother?"
"Capability," Marques Brown said unhurriedly.
Capability?
Isn’t it obvious?
Annelie furrowed her eyebrows. "It’s Miss Aurora..."
"Indeed." Marques Brown also smiled. She had only seen the two girls once, but the demeanor that Aurora showed far surpassed any other girls their age. It could be said that she was very mature and calm.
So calm that it was hard to imagine there would be a time when she couldn’t control her emotion.
But it was also because of this that she had the faint feeling that what people treasured and longed was nothing in Aurora’s eyes. She had no interest in the few things that seemed to be valuable in front of other people.
"Mother?"
"Forget about it for now." Marques Brown chuckled. "But it seems my next tea party had to be postponed."
She felt that this little girl was not simple and Marques Brown didn’t want to be involved in too much drama either.
As for the matter of her son?
She believed that her husband would be able to handle it.
But for herself and her daughter, she would wait until the situation was clearer in the future.
...
The tea party’s matter passed without any ripples.
Aurora and Adela continued on with their lives and didn’t have much contact with each other.
Today, Aurora was meeting with Mr. Wren and he brought her information that she had been waiting for a long time.
"Miss Aurora, Duke Sun would like to talk with you directly in terms of the negotiation," Mr. Wren said in apologetic tone.
This matter should have been handled by Duke White, but Aurora was the one who truly proposed the idea. This made Mr. Wren troubled and choose to come to Aurora to ask whether she wanted to meet him or not.
After all, if Duke Sun had to meet with Duke White, it was estimated that the two dukes wouldn’t be able to negotiate peacefully.
The relationship between the two dukes...
It could be said that it would be better for them not to meet each other in their entire life.
