Chapter 873 A Generous Dowry
But at this point, there was no need for her to hide it.
So she nodded.
“He doesn’t know what I’m thinking,” she whispered. “I haven't talked to him about that.”
After a pause, she looked expectantly at Queeny and whispered, “Miss Horton, what does a girl have to
do to please a boy she likes?”
She really didn’t know. She’d never been in a relationship. For the first time in her life, she liked a man,
and all she could think about was him.
She longed to see him every day, but she was afraid that seeing him so often would make him dislike
her.
So she could only contrive to find excuses and create a chance to encounter with him.
But the more she did so, the more uneasy she became. She always felt that this feeling was only her
own one-woman show from beginning to end.
He doesn't know anything. He didn’t even know she liked him, and he couldn’t possibly end up with her.
But she dared not pluck up the courage to tell him.
At this time, Ella’s mood was very contradictory.
But there were few people she could really trust in this place, even though she had been there a long
time.
Servants also had their own cliques. Even though everyone seemed to be on good terms and get
along.
But she knew in her heart that such friendships were unstable, even fragile.
If she confided her secret to one of them today, the castle maids would know by tomorrow that she had
a crush on one of Felix's own guards.
Regardless of what Dean would think, she would be embarrassed.
Therefore, although she had a crush on him for so long, she still suppressed her mood and did not
mention it to anyone else.
Queeny looked at her and knew what she was thinking.
After a moment’s reflection, she said softly, “In fact, in my opinion, if two people really love each other,
there is no need to deliberately please each other.”
“Because if it’s real love, he’ll be happy no matter what you do. Your joy, anger, laughter and scolding
are the most cherished things in his eyes.”
“However, you two are in a different situation. Maybe he doesn’t know what you’re thinking, or maybe
he also has a crush on you and just too shy to ask. Just like you.”
“The worst that can happen is that he regards you as a friend, or a dear little sister, and does not care
for you in that way.”
“Either way, remember that you can give and please him, but only in ways that make you happy and
keep you safe.”
“As soon as you see something wrong, get out of there. Don't be sloppy. Don’t let him hold on to your
weak side, or you’ll easily suffer.”
Ella looked at her and nodded vaguely.
It was a moment before she said, “Miss Horton, I seem to understand a little bit. Don’t worry, I know
what to do.”
Queeny smiled and patted her on the shoulder. “Are you twenty?”
Ella nodded, “Well, yes.”
“Don’t be afraid to love, and if you do get together, I’ll give you a generous dowry.”
Speaking of this, Ella’s face turned red again.
She nudged her slightly and said, “Miss Horton, you’re talking nonsense.”
Queeny burst out laughing.
Queeny was in a good mood after teasing Ella. She went to her room and did some reading until it was
late.
The next day, she secretly asked Donald to investigate Dean.
The results came back fast. Dean’s profile was clean. He was also a good person, and had a good
reputation among the bodyguards.
Earlier, a new captain had to be chosen because of what happened to the last bodyguard captain.
A lot of people elected him, and he would be a direct report to Ford if he hadn’t been too junior and
young to do the job.
In any case, this man was trustworthy.
Queeny was relieved to see this.
In the evening, after supper, she lay down on a cool chair on the balcony to enjoy the cool. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Summer was not quite over yet. It was the hottest season of the year.
It was fine to stay at home during the day, but she felt a little bored at night and was too lazy to go out
for a walk, so she simply moved a chair to watch the stars on the balcony.
She lay for a while with a dull pain in her head.
She had a feeling of drowsiness and nausea.
So, she hurried someone to call Ella.
Ella came in. Seeing her face, she said, “It’s so hot these two days. Are you suffering from sunstroke?”
Queeny was stunned, frowning, “I don’t think so. I didn’t go out during the day. I stayed in my room with
the air conditioner on.”
Ella felt a little worried and said, “Why don’t I call the doctor?”
There was a resident doctor in the castle anyway.
Queeny hesitated and finally shook her head.
“Forget it. Never mind.”
So much had been going on lately. It was not the first time she’d been like this. She had asked the
doctor the last time he came to examine her leg. He checked it out and found nothing wrong.
She felt that maybe it was really too hot this period of time, and she was stuffy here every day, so she
would feel uncomfortable.
So she didn’t want to make a fuss. Felix was still hurt, and if he knew she had called the doctor, he
might think something was wrong with her.
Then he would come looking for her, and there would be all the fuss and worry.
Queeny didn’t want people to worry about her. It wasn’t a big deal anyway, so she kept it quiet.
Seeing her like this, Ella became even more worried.
She thought for a moment and said, “How about I massage you again with essential oil to see if you will
feel better?”
As she said this, Queeny suddenly remembered how comfortable she felt when she massaged her last
time and nodded.
“Okay, that’s it. You go ahead.”
Ella nodded and quickly turned around to get those things.
She soon got it back. Queeny didn't move either. She laid her recliner flat on the balcony for her
massage.
She had to say that Ella’s craft really won her heart.
Her little hands, as if they had been enlightened by a god, were almost magical.
She pressed it against her scalp with a force so precise in its importance that it made her sleepy.
Queeny laughed and quipped, “What am I gonna do if I can’t live without this?”
Ella laughed, “Then I’ll follow you all my life as long as you need me.”
