Countess of Pride and Prejudice

Charlotte didn't expect the earl to say this. She bit her lower lip and didn't speak for a long time. Earl Max began to feel disappointed. Although he was sure that Charlotte loved him, this kind of love was far less than what he loved Charlotte. Dee's love came so strong.

There, in that time and space, there are Charlotte's parents and family, a good family background that raised her into a perfect lady, and even groups of suitors.All of this, far from being in love with her, the life of a countess, can make her give up.

"Count, I think, since everything is God's will, then we wait for God's decision." Charlotte's words were ambiguous, but Earl Max was slightly relieved, and he walked to Charlotte's bed Gently kissed her on the forehead: "Since God let you meet that gypsy woman, then I don't think she appeared for no reason."

"Thank you, Earl. Anyway, getting your love is the biggest achievement I have gained in the past two years." Charlotte's words made Earl Max's face show some sadness, and then Earl Max smiled: "Although I Can't be loved as much as it is, but I'm content to have you bear my name. Charlotte!"

"Margaret!" Charlotte said the name suddenly, and soon Earl Max understood: "Is this your name?" Charlotte nodded: "Yes, Margaret, I'm sorry I can't tell Whose daughter are you and me. However, she is a real girl, as beautiful as a flower, and is known as the most dazzling pearl in London, and this has never changed. "

Saying that, Charlotte smiled again: "Of course, she also has a matching dowry, which is a full fifty thousand pounds."

"So there are many suitors. This is really a proud girl." Earl Max tried to make himself smile happily, but the corners of his eyes became moist at some point.

"Yes, many suitors, but none of them are as good as you."

"Thank you, Margaret, these words comfort me." Earl Max put Charlotte's hand on his lips and kissed it lightly.

Charlotte looked at him, and quickly closed her eyes again, for another minute of looking would have drowned in the tenderness of his eyes.Don't get lost, Margaret, your life is far brighter than Charlotte's.Even if he did so, it would be very selfish for Earl Max and even Little William, but let's just be so selfish for once.

Earl Max looked at Charlotte intently for a long, long time, until Charlotte felt that if she continued to look at it like this, she would want to open her eyes and tell him that she would not try to leave, but be with him To live together, to live a very normal, count and countess life.

No, Charlotte told herself in her heart, she couldn't open her eyes, she couldn't tell him all this, just like the gypsy woman said, she shouldn't be here, since she shouldn't be here, she should leave here.

Earl Max sighed softly, he could see Charlotte's struggle, but in the end, Charlotte didn't open her eyes and smiled at him.

Hearing the sound of the door opening and closing, Charlotte waited for a while before opening her eyes. Looking at the empty room, Charlotte let out a long sigh of relief, God, if you want to decide, please Be quicker than this reluctance to make a decision.

Count Max did not enter the room that night, and the maid told Charlotte that Count Max had ordered another bedroom to be packed out, and he slept in that bedroom during Charlotte's pregnancy.

Because the wife is pregnant, it is normal for the husband and wife to separate rooms, and no one will be surprised.Mrs. Lucas also specifically said to Charlotte: "I'm afraid that Earl Max will not agree to the separation, after all, he loves you so much. But Charlotte, you have to know that everything is based on the child in your womb."

"Oh, Mom, don't say any more, don't you see that Charlotte is a little panicked?" Caroline's stop did not stop Mrs. Lucas from talking, but she finally changed the subject and talked about Catherine It is said that Catherine married earlier than Charlotte, but there is no news until now, which is really worrying.

Charlotte pretended not to hear anything, and let Caroline and Mrs. Lucas deal with each other.

After several days in bed, Mr. White came to examine her, and announced that Charlotte was ready to move about.Charlotte then left the room, and began to look at the house.

All aristocratic manors are similar, nothing more than a courtyard with a mansion. Although Marks Manor does not have as large and beautiful woods as Pemberley, and Lancaster Manor is not right by the lake.But under the hard care of the gardener, it is still very beautiful.

And when Charlotte got out of bed to walk in the courtyard, she met Earl Max, who was teaching little William fencing at that time.Under the sunlight, the two figures, one big and one small, seemed so attentive.This should have been a very beautiful picture, but it was difficult for Charlotte to appreciate it at this moment.

"Oh, mom, hello, look, how am I doing?" I don't care about anything, probably only little William.Seeing the smile on Little William's face, Charlotte took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat: "Honey, you've learned very well."

"The earl said that when Lady Eliza returns from Pemberley, he will invite many gentlemen to hunt with us, and he will try to let me hunt a fox. Mother, are you happy?"

Lady Alisa was going to Pemberley to attend Georgiana's wedding. Originally, the whole family was said to be going, but Charlotte's pregnancy disrupted this plan.Of course, Elizabeth was not angry because Charlotte could not come to attend, but wrote a letter with great joy to express her congratulations.

"You are so young, can you hunt?" Charlotte tried her best not to think of those troublesome things, and talked with Little William.Little William clenched his fists: "Of course, Mom, I'm good at hunting. Besides, I'm already very good at riding a horse. I'll go to the stables to get my horse out and show you how to ride it."

"Little William, your mother is pregnant, so don't ride a horse in front of her. You know, although your riding skills are very good, you still can't control that beast well!"

Earl Max’s words made Little William a little discouraged, but he soon cheered up: “Okay, I understand. Then, Mom, I’ll change my clothes first, and then I’ll come and accompany you.” Little William ran into the room after bowing. mansion.

"You love little William more than me, Charlotte, if you love me as much as you love little William, then you don't want to leave?" Earl Max looked at Charlotte's eyes all the time on little William, Suddenly asked.

"Haven't we already agreed? Earl, we have to wait for God's decision." Charlotte said a little flustered.But Earl Max was not going to let her go. He reached out and took Charlotte's arm: "How long will it take? After you give birth to a child, or a year or two? Margaret, before I met you, I didn't know You know, I would fall so madly in love with someone. Now, I don't want to wait for God's decision anymore. Instead, I want to get your answer."

"I never knew Earl Max was a man with no self-confidence." Charlotte could only hide the upset in her heart with such words.

"Yes, Charlotte, for none of those people are you, or rather, Margaret. I love you, Margaret. The love is so strong, Margaret, please, look My eyes." Earl Max's words contained a kind of temptation, Charlotte wanted to look up into his eyes, but quickly shook her head: "No, Earl, please don't force me!"

"Margaret, you are ignoring me. I know, you want to be Margaret again, but after these two years, you have been nagging me to Caroline, to Little William, and even to that nagging Does Mrs. Lucas, who has a headache, have no feelings at all? Although Mrs. Lucas is uneducated and vain, she really loves you. Charlotte, do you have the heart to let little William become an orphan like this?"

Charlotte was already in tears and couldn't help herself. She just shook her head: "Count, please calm down."

"No, it's clearly you who are not calm now. Charlotte, or Margaret, tell me, do you love me?" The word love was already in her throat, but Charlotte still didn't say it, she just Pushing Earl Max away: "I think, I need to rest."

These words made Earl Max calm down. Charlotte was still pregnant. God would not be so cruel and take away pregnant people twice.So Earl Max let go of the hand holding Charlotte's shoulder: "I'm sorry, I was too reckless. But Charlotte, I want you to stay by my side forever."

Charlotte went up to the great house, and tried in vain to keep the tears from her eyes, which would have aroused a fuss.

When entering the mansion, Charlotte did not go upstairs to her room, but found a small living room, opened the door and walked in, then closed the door tightly, sat on the sofa and began to cry.

When there were no more tears in her eyes, Charlotte looked around and closed her eyes in despair.God, please make a quick decision instead of making me anxiously wait.

As if there was an echo, Charlotte's lower abdomen suddenly jumped. Although Charlotte had never been pregnant before, she knew that the fetal movement would not come so fast.Is it you who don't want me to leave?Yes or no?Can you answer me?

Of course the child would not answer, but in such a quiet room, Charlotte thought more. Finally she stood up and walked to the window. Outside was the garden of Max Manor, and the garden was very beautiful.Charlotte began to close her eyes, imagining herself standing at the window of Lancaster Manor.
