The breakfast time passed without any disturbance. Although Marianne had a bleak face, she finally did not lose her manners at someone else's house.However, a letter from Bond Street reached Marianne.Not only that, but also the letter that Marianne had written before was sent back together.

She could no longer suppress her sadness, and ran back to the bedroom quickly, crying on her back on the bed.

Mrs. Jennings came up with a glass of rum, and brought Sully a letter from Colonel Brandon.She sighed, left the room silently, and closed the door intimately for the two good girls.The same gentleman I met in Barton, a high-profile love affair ended disastrously, and a long-lived one got his own happiness.

Hope Marianne can make it through.

Marianne wept for a while, and at last appeased her anguish a little, and hastily opened Willoughby's letter, and read:

Dear Miss:

I have the honor of reading your letter just now, and I am disturbed to find that my behavior last night was not entirely satisfactory .Whenever I think of the previous contacts of Yu Zun's mansion in Devon County, I can't help but feel grateful and joyful, because I think that even if I make a mistake in my actions or cause a little misunderstanding, it will not destroy this relationship. Friendship, my heartfelt admiration for all of you as a family.But if you have the misfortune to think that I have thought or meant something else, I can only reproach myself for being careless in paying this homage, and you only need to know the circumstances to see that I could not mean otherwise : I'm already engaged to someone else, and I don't think we'll be married in a few weeks.With great regret, I was ordered to return the favor book and the lock of hair that I was honored to receive.

your humble servant

John Willoughby

Su Li and Marianne read the letter together, and stood up angrily from the bed.She scolded in disbelief: "I never imagined that Mr. Willoughby could be so shameless! Such a disregard for a gentleman's decency. In this letter, he wanted to dissolve the engagement without expressing any apology, and did not admit that he had broken his promise. Denies any special affections! He's just sunk into the pit of evil!"

Marian broke down and cried again, this time, no matter what Su Li tried to comfort her, she couldn't calm her down.

And she also concluded from Marianne's mouth that she was not engaged to Willoughby, and that Willoughby never once said that he loved Marianne.

Scum!

Marianne couldn't cry herself, Su Li had no choice but to use magic to put her to sleep. Although this was a temporary solution, it could make Marianne feel better.

She went to the window, picked up the letter that Brandon had sent her, and read it.

The colonel's handwriting is as calm and powerful as his, but not too sharp to make people feel distanced.

Dear Miss Eleanor:

I'm here to tell you exactly what I know, and experience, about that brief conversation last night.It's a little hard to tell you though.

My sister, Miss Marianne, is very similar to an old friend of mine, and we grew up together as childhood sweethearts.Later, my old friend married my brother, who didn't care about her at all, and only went out to have fun.When I was in the East Indies, I heard the news of their divorce.After returning to the UK, based on the friendship I had when I was young, I sent people to look for my old friend.Eventually I found her in a poor hospital where she was dying.She had a daughter under her knees, who was only three years old at the time, so I became her guardian.Now, she is only 15 years old.Blaming my carelessness, I promised her to stay temporarily at a friend's house in Bath.Last February, she suddenly disappeared.

Remember that outing that ended in nothing?The letter I received was to inform me of this.She was cheated on her feelings and was ruthlessly abandoned.Now pregnant with his child.Perhaps you have already guessed how things are connected.

Willoughby.

I sympathize with what happened to my sister, but, thankfully, it's not too late.I am sorry that I chose to hide from you in order to protect the reputation of my adopted daughter, and I am deeply sorry.And willing to make amends for it.

I beg your forgiveness

Christopher Brandon

Su Li was once again pissed off by Willoughby's shamelessness!What a scumbag! ! !

If it weren't for the fact that there is no magic in this world and her magic power is suppressed to only one-tenth of the original, she will definitely make that person look good!must!

Marian woke up early the next morning thinking of going home. Indeed, going home when hurt is the best way to heal.But they were brought by Mrs. Jennings, and the family was helped by Sir John's.It's really rude to come and go when you say it.She gave Brandon's letter to Marianne, and the little girl calmed down a lot after crying again.It's better to be dumped by a scum than to marry a scum!

They spent another unhappy time in Harley Street over the next few days.Although their brother's invitation to them to live in the past is entirely based on good intentions.

But no matter what, everyone did a good job of saving face, and no one came to poke Marianne's already riddled heart.Therefore, although the living is not very comfortable, it is peaceful anyway.

While they were visiting everywhere, time slowly reached April.On this day, Mrs. Jennings ran over excitedly and told them that her little daughter had given birth to a lovely little boy.She was going to visit her, and invited Su Li and Marian and Colonel Brandon to Cleveland as guests.

One early morning in early April, two groups of people from Hanover Square and Berkeley Street set off from their homes separately and met on the road.

Su Li was a little reluctant to look back at the house, where Brandon proposed to her.Her love blooms the most beautiful light here.

In Cleveland, eighty miles from Barton Cottage and less than thirty miles from Combe Mansions, Marianne's spirits were again low and unstable.So close, too close to a place that used to be full of good memories.

Su Li and Brandon were immersed in a wonderful love, but Marian disappeared without a trace.To make matters worse, it started to rain heavily.Brandon took the servant out to look for it, and brought back Marian, who was already unconscious, when it was almost dark.

Ask the maid to change Marianne's wet clothes. The stove is hot. After the doctor's consultation, she sits on the side of the bed and looks at Marianne, a little angrily: "Marianne, what did you do?"

Marianne gathered the thick blanket around her body, and said with deep affection: "I just wanted to go for a walk in the Greek temple, but suddenly it rained heavily. I..." Her voice became softer and softer, in her own Under the eyes of my sister, I couldn't speak any more.

Su Li hugged Marianne: "Marianne, take a good rest..."

She has never been a character like a close sister, and even after being a princess for hundreds of years in her previous life, her caring qualities have become less and less.Moreover, this hurdle can only allow Marianne to go out by herself.

Halfway through, Marianne's condition became more and more serious, and the doctor said it was a viral cold.Su Li took out the cold medicine brewed in the space and diluted it and fed it to her.Slowly, Marian's mind and body recovered together.

And, finally, they were going back to Barton Cottage!

And Su Li will put on a white wedding dress in two months and marry her beloved Colonel Brandon!

Everyone started to get busy crazily. Although she had written to Mrs. Dashwood a long time ago, they were worrying about Marianne at that time, so they didn't make any preparations.

But Brandon made a request to get married as soon as possible after they returned to Barton Cottage, and Mrs. Dashwood readily agreed to him considering his age.

Mrs. Dashwood became busy right away. The wedding dress, dowry, jewelry, and pre-marital education all had to be completed in more than a month.This made her, who was always gentle, become a little anxious.Even Margaret dutifully recited the Kings and Queens that she wasn't interested in.

It was another busy afternoon. Although they had received the wedding dress from Brandon a few days ago, they still had to modify it according to Su Li's specific situation.There are also clothing and jewelry that need to be prepared for the honeymoon after marriage.

Su Li, the rightful owner of the whole family, was free, and appeared at the seaside with Brandon.

The man held the girl's hand openly and looked at the sea with anticipation and happiness: "I hope you can wear the sapphire I gave you at the wedding, it matches your eyes very well."

Su Li smiled and pulled Brandon's hand, pulled out the necklace around her neck, and looked at Brandon's sly smile: "But I'm already wearing it around my neck."

Brandon immediately smiled contentedly, and the lines that always hung between his brows softened, making him look several years younger: "It matches you very well."

"I think so too." Su Li touched the warm sapphire covered by her body temperature, took out a small silver jug ​​from her handbag and handed it to Brandon: "This is the wine I made with raspberries. It's a bit high, it's just right for you to drink." It's not pure raspberry wine, but she has dripped several drops of life potion in it.It can make the dark wounds on Brandon's body gradually heal, and it is a potion made of pure herbs, and no one except her will find it in the fruit wine.

Brandon took the flagon and immediately put it in his chest pocket, placing it close to his heart.

Seeing the man's cautious movements, Su Li laughed: "Don't be reluctant to drink, I'll brew you more wine later."

"Okay." Brandon held the girl's hand tightly, and the corner of his mouth grinned uncontrollably again.Gathering up the courage to show her affection was the most correct decision he had ever made.
