The Happy Life of a Duchess

Morgana realized after a brief daze that the amount of information in this passage was too great.

She used her sluggish little brain to think for a long time before she realized——

My good friend Leo and Mr. Fitch are indeed together. They are interested in each other, and they have even reached the point of discussing marriage. However, this matter has not been announced to the public yet. It seems to be between Mr. Hugo and Mr. Fitch. discussing.

Another thing is that even if Leo married Mr. Fitch, she would not go to the United States with her.

Mr. Fitch will stay in Paris to do business, mainly in Europe, and may have more exchanges with British businessmen, but no matter what, compared to the distance across the ocean before, it is really much better now, I think There are still many opportunities and times to meet.

After thinking through all this, Morgana only felt that her eyes were much brighter.

Many things that bothered her before had a perfect answer all of a sudden.

My friends can get the expected happiness, and they can enter the palace of marriage with the joy of love.

And as her good friend, I don't have to face the regret of the interruption of the friendship with my friend who is separated by the ocean and all kinds of worries about her friend's future life...

After realizing this, the smile on Morgana's face brightened a lot.

"That would be great, Leo."

She talked to Leo in a coquettish tone, and Leo always treated her kindly, just like his little sister.

Sometimes it doesn't feel like a friend, just as Leo takes care of his younger sister with the gentleness of a mother, Leo's attitude towards Morgana is always tolerant, which is a bit more than getting along with Adele It seems to be the generosity of responsibility.

"In this way, we can still meet often in the future, otherwise I will miss you so much."

She hugged Leo and talked happily.

"Adele is too. Fortunately, we will be able to see each other often in the future!"

She laughed so hard that her eyes narrowed. Although she was a little confused at first, after realizing what she had made a mistake, she has completely shaken off those emotions now, and fell into a new happiness.

"Tell me quickly." Morgana begged, holding her hand.

Leo would bring up some such private topics with Adele, but because looking at Leo was like looking at his own little sister, Leo usually would not talk about those private topics.

But since Morgana asked that, Leo didn't mean to hide it.

She briefly talked about how she and Mr. Fitch looked at each other, as well as some of the later getting along and what happened, and then talked about some common ideas and things that fit well with each other.

Looking at the happy smile on her face, both Morgana and Adele knew that Leo, who used to have concerns about marriage, was like any other innocent and beautiful little girl when facing the person he liked. Other such grudges.

"So, are you getting engaged soon?"

Morgana looked at her in surprise.

"Well, just the day before yesterday, Mr. Fitch proposed marriage to my father, and my father agreed after consideration, mainly because he was willing to stay and develop in Europe for me. He once told me quietly that his original In my plan, I just come back to have a look, get in touch with Fei Qi and his wife, and then convey some greetings from his family."

"Originally, I just planned to come back and take a look, but I didn't expect that he fell in love with me at first sight, and I had a very good impression of him." At this point, she still blushed a little, but she continued to speak shyly.

"I told him that as the eldest daughter, I don't want to leave home too far to go to the United States. He knew this from the very beginning when he got along with me and contacted me. At that time, he actually knew that my father was looking for me. The right husband, who also saw that I was of marriageable age, and was very moved when he learned that I was still single."

"He actually thought about this for a long time and discussed it with his family. In the end, his love for me surpassed those concerns, and he still chose to pursue me."

"I only found out later that when I didn't know, he asked many ladies and gentlemen about me. In order to have an intersection with me, he appeared at a dance. He also made a lot of Great effort, after all, he didn't know all about my possible trips and dance parties in advance."

"Including the news, I don't even know where he found out about it. I asked Adele later, but she didn't say anything. I only knew that he had already made preparations and contacted people, but he directly approached me and said that he could help. I Of course I am more grateful."

"It turned out to be premeditated."

When Leo said this, his face seemed a little angry, but soon the smile rose again.

Her words were full of sweetness, she was not really annoyed by it, but just felt that this happiness was hard-won.

"In short, it's good that he can stay." Adele continued.

"Yes, but his father has always wanted to come back for development, including Mr. Fitch here, and he also hopes that part of his family can return to the roots of Paris. This time it is he who came back. His brother still stays It would not be too bad if he came back to do business in the United States.”

"It just might be a little unstable." Adele expected.

"Yes, but this way, I can follow him to various places. I've been looking forward to it for a long time."

Leo is very open about this aspect, as long as it is not a long-term separation, the life of traveling around on business is not so bad for her.

Besides, Mr. Fitch Jr. is also a very wealthy gentleman, so he won't let his wife receive bad reception when he travels abroad.

"What about the ball? When will it be held, and tell everyone the good news?"

Morgana couldn't wait.

"It won't take long. You will receive an invitation card from my family soon. Maybe you will receive it when you go home. My mother is very happy to know that I can marry a husband who I like and can treat me wholeheartedly. My father still wants to procrastinate, but my mother is not willing, and she has always hoped that I will marry a richer man. She has suffered from not having money, so she hopes that I will not suffer from those, so I have been help me."

Morgana didn't know the truth, but she also skipped it very keenly.

Adele knows a little bit, but this is Leo's sad thing, she can say it with a smile now, her mother can teach her experience sincerely, there is no need for others to talk too much.

In just a few days, the front was still laughing, and in a blink of an eye, it was Leo's engagement ball.

In order to celebrate her friend, Adele specially put on a pink dress. Since she got engaged, she has intentionally controlled and no longer always wears such a fresh color, even if this pink is a popular color nowadays.

The pink and white long skirt has complicated and beautiful lace. It is a pattern of layered peonies that are hooked out. Large pieces bloom on the skirt, layered on top of each other. When walking, the skirt is elegant, and the skirt Ripples like beautiful waves.

On the neck is a deep purple crystal pendant with enamel inlaid on gold, which is also used for brooches and necklaces, but she used a thin gold necklace to wear it around her neck.

The thick and beautiful purple, together with the beautiful milky white enamel on the surrounding gold frame, further enhances the crystal quality.A circle of small pearls echoes the few pearls on the necklace, and it is another gorgeous necklace of high quality.

"Great, you're here."

Adele and Leo embraced and kissed each other on the cheek.

"Mr. Duval is here."

Leo spoke to her in a low voice, and then his eyes drifted away.

Adele looked over and saw Mr. Duval looking at it with a smile on his glass.

She smiled and patted her arm lightly pretending to be angry.

"Come on, I guess Mr. Fitch was the first one to come today."

"..." Leo wanted to hold back, but the smile on the corner of his mouth still showed, full of happiness.

Seeing this, Adele felt a little relieved.

She is really happy for her best friend, and getting engaged at this time can probably avoid the accident of drowning by the river that summer, but even if they want to go out to play in summer, she will definitely tell them carefully .

Compared with the previous fair candidates, Mr. Fitch at least has good physical strength and is taller. Mr. Fitch is an officer after all. No matter how bad Mr. Fitch is as a nephew, he will not even be able to swim.

"I think Mr. Fitch is also very happy today. He is always reserved and quiet."

Adele just laughed. Mr. Fitch was dressed in a military uniform, and he was talking to his colleagues and comrades in the same circle. He was not in the same social circle as the Hugo family, writers, politicians and nobles, but it will be different in the future.

"Oh, by the way," Leo couldn't hold back, pulled her aside and whispered, "...she's here too."

"Who?" Adele paused, not understanding.

"That, Miss Sophie Barry." She whispered, "I think there is something wrong with her, she seems to be a little fatter."

"Maybe she's pregnant." Adele whispered to her after thinking about it, "I checked her before, but I don't know whose child it is."

Leo was startled for a moment, and then his expression turned cold.

"Then what is she doing here..."

Miss Sophie Barley is pregnant out of wedlock, and her name is not good anyway.

What's more, her figure is plump now. Although she doesn't know if her belly is not obvious because of the waistband, her whole figure is more plump than before, which is visible to the naked eye.

Of course, she was originally on the sexy route, and although she is a little fatter now, she is not exaggerated enough to be called weird.

It's just that people don't like her, and since fashion is thin for beauty, it's impossible not to criticize her, she's just a walking mobile gossip maker.

What's more, today is Leo's engagement banquet, she, a pregnant woman who concealed her identity as a pregnant woman——

In case of an accident, no one's face will look good, and if the pregnant woman has an accident, there will be some blood stains, either the child or the mother, maybe both have problems.

She is so...

She didn't know how many months she was pregnant, and the fetus was not stable enough for her to go back and forth like this.

Even if Leo didn't shy away from bleeding, he knew that if something happened to her at her engagement banquet, it would have an impact on her family and her reputation.

And her family really didn't have enough skills to deal with such a level of emergency, and Leo himself felt that he didn't have the confidence to handle it well.

"Don't worry, I'll ask Mrs. Lude to find a doctor to wait."

Adele soon made up her mind.
