'You can't just leave!'

Archie caught up Albert leaving the estate and, grabbed his shoulder, forced him to turn round.

'What are you doing?' The young man asked. 'How can you do this? How you can leave? You have to stop, break off the engagement, you have to do something!'

'Archie…' The man put his hands on the young man's shoulders, trying to calm him down. 'Sometimes you have to leave.'

'But…'

'Everyone loves in their own way. My love is to let her go.'

Albert's attentive eyes noticed that young Cornwell's anxiety about Candy's fate was too strong to be friendly.

'She will be happy. She's a strong person.'

'But he…'

'Maybe we are too prejudged towards him. He can change, can not he? Being next to Candy.'

'But he may not change! He can... may...' Archibald looked for something like a comparison, and then waved his hand.

'You know who he is!' He added hotly.

'And then in this case there must be a Knight next to Candy. Stay close to her.'

'Do you think so?' Brown eyes looked up, at the wise blue.

'Everyone loves in their own way,' Albert repeated. 'A knight loves his Lady. And always come to her help.'

'I understood, Albert,' Archie whispered. 'But it's so sorely.'

'Being a knight is no easy.'

'And you?'

'I have to go. That's would be better. At least for now. Maybe I'll come back later when all the passions are abated. Farewell.'

'Goodbye…'

Young Cornwell was looking at the retreating little figure of his oldest friend and felt more and more lonely.

There were three of them, three Candy's Knights. And he was left alone. Annie also left him.

Yes, he will stay with Candy. Unobtrusive and invisible. But if necessary, he will protect her...

…A maid helped Candy take off her dress, and the girl put on a nightgown, and slipped into bed with relief.

Tomorrow all the guests will leave, and she can spend the whole day together with Neil!

They will ride a boat, ride horses and walk in the huge Andrew park. Neil said this by himself, saying goodbye before going to sleep.

It's just wonderful!

Despite the fatigue, the girl could not fall asleep. They will slide on a boat on the lake surface, Neil will be on the oars, and the sun rays will play on the water surface and in his brown eyes, like little devils.
They will ride horses, and she will feel the warmth of his hands, the sound of his heart…
The girl's thoughts returned to Mr. Albert. A tear ran down her cheek. For some reason, Miss White felt that he had said goodbye forever, and it was very sad. She didn't want everything to work out in this way…

But Albert loves her, and he chose this path - to wish happiness and leave. She can not force him to stay... What a pity that you can not make all people happy! To be all together and happy-happy! Like any person in love, Candy wanted everyone around to find their soul mate, and everything would be fine, but life is not a bed of roses.

Then the girl thought about Annie. She never came up to them, and for some reason she quietly left the celebration. Maybe she felt bad? It's necessary to find out.
The eyes just couldn't stay open, and Candy began to dream of the Neil again. Her lips remembered his kisses, and the body - his tender embrace. Tomorrow she will see him, right in the morning! How she wanted time to go faster! And the girl fell asleep.
