Chapter 11 (part 1)
The next morning at the mansion there was a knock at Anna's room. Anna was
still in bed.
Chris:can I come in mother?
Anna:yes, you can come in son
Chris:how do you feel?
Anna:like my head is going to explode
Chris:you can't continue with these headaches you have to go see a doctor
Anna:it will solve nothing...there's nothing to do...this is all because of the problems
Chris:what problems mother?
Anna:you know exactly...I couldn't sleep the other night...I understood that for you I count nothing...you don't accept my suggestions anymore
Chris:it's not true, for me your opinion is important but you have to accept my decisions...I don't like violence and after all Mike was already informed...he knew I wouldn't allow him to go against my word...if I forgive him I will lose my authority
Anna:I know and I'm not going to insist but at least listen to me about Mr Mills...if you tell him to come back what will I look like after I dismissed him?
Chris:can I know why you did it?
Anna:I prefer not it's too humiliated to tell you
Chris:have he tried to do something to you?
Anna:no, no
Chris:so what?
Anna:you have to know that Mr Mills was the one that helped your father to hide from me his unfaithfulness ...and I even suspect that he was the one that showed him the women...if I see him here it will be an insult for me
Chris:fine I will search for another supervisor
Anna:you don't know how released I feel
Later that day Chris was walking in the garden with Sadie.
Chris:if my father was unfaithful, I'm not the one to judge him...maybe he had his reasons
Sadie:what are you saying?...are you justifying the unfaithfulness?
Chris:no, of course not but I'm disturbed of the thing because of it I can't let Mr Mills to work with me because like that I will hurt my mother, I have to find another supervisor...you know Sadie when I was little I had a friend...maybe I can ask him to work for me if I could find him...and now Sadie what do you thing if we make the date for our marriage?
Sadie:I think we need time you know for the dress the preparations...we know each other not too long and I would like if there is more confidence between us
Chris:confidence?...what do you mean?
Sadie:I don't want to look to shy...but...for example our first night together
Chris:your shyness looks beautiful to me but if it's embarrassing for you I will have nothing against you if you would like some liberty
Chris moved to kiss her and she accepted but after a minute she pulled back.
Chris:have I scared you?
Sadie:yes, a little
Chris:men like me when we love someone we do things without any hiding, with passion...when are we going to get married?
In the dining room Jamie and Jude were talking.
Jude:is this how it works around here with so much cruelty and violence without thinking about others feelings?
Jamie:this is how the world is my dear...the power makes you use violence
Jude:I was deluded that Chris was different
Jamie:yes, maybe he has more mercy than others but of course not that much to leave his finances go down for other people...I think you made a view of him with romance and gentleness of my friend Chris...of course he's not a bad guy, he's generous, gentle but of course he has his defects and weakness
In that moment Sadie and Chris came in.
Chris:Sadie and I have decided the date for our marriage
Jamie:really?...my congratulations to both of you and when it will be?
Chris:we will marry in 3 months
Some period have past and Jude went back at the convent. In the convent Jude
Has arrived and went in her room. The sister came in to welcome back Jude.
Sister:they told me of your arrive
Jude:yes, we came yesterday from the mansion of my sister's fiancé
Sister:you look good...I think it was good for you
Jude:yes, its true thanks...and you how are you sister?
Sister:good and in these days I'm helping the new ones but there is one so terrible she's very ill-mannered and impertinent...her name is Angelica
On the beach at the Harrisons house, Sadie was putting on some music when her
mother came in.
Victoria:please, don't put on that music I don't understand why Chris had to give you that as a present
Sadie:you're saying I can't listen to some music?...we all have to mourn because Jude is back in convent?
Victoria:Jude has nothing to do with this and you better do something essential Sadie...your aunty Anna already said that you wake up late and that you don't do anything all day
Sadie:and you think I care what Aunty Anna says?
Victoria:but you have to care, aunty Anna is also the mother of Chris and even your future mother in law
And with that Victoria left.
Sadie:the mother of Chris...my future mother in law who cares
Teasers:
What will happen between Angelica and Jude?
And will this make consequences to Sadie?
