"Don't worry, he doesn't know anything! Since he knocked on my door, he must be looking for me." Caroline purposely put on a strange face: "Your brother will definitely educate me..."

Georgiana couldn't relax, she felt guilty, after all, it was Caroline who took the blame for her brother.On the one hand, he was worried. Wickham's older brother obviously knew him very well, so he cut off contact with him all these years. How disappointed would he be if he knew that he had such thoughts for Wickham?

Caroline didn't have time to comfort her at this time, the hotel room was so clear at a glance, she had no choice but to push Georgiana into the closet against Mr. Darcy's frightening knock on the door.

"Hide here for a while, I'll coax your brother outside."

She hastily closed the cabinet door, then straightened her clothes, and opened the door with her head held high.

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Darcy," she said very officially.

Mr. Darcy's complexion was ugly... Caroline almost couldn't hold back her haughty and glamorous demeanor, but fortunately she still remembered that there was a weeping Georgiana with red and swollen eyes hiding in her room, so she forced herself to smile at him See.

"Miss Caroline, I don't know if it's convenient for you at this time, but I have to talk to you!" Mr. Darcy's tone was more forceful. Although he usually looked serious and unreasonable, in fact, he It is still rare to speak to people in such a tone of no room.

Realizing that he even wanted to enter the house, Caroline resisted the pressure and took a small step to the side, just blocking his movement.At this moment, they were a little close. Darcy should have apologized in a very gentlemanly manner and then returned to his original position, but looking at her aggressive but obviously stern eyes, there was unmistakable panic in them, and he looked down upon her. She, this kind of vague feeling of suppression is actually very good...

So he didn't move.

Looking at this extremely handsome and manly face up close, Caroline almost forgot to breathe. The pressure was too great, and her neck was too sore. If you don't mind, this gentleman will go straight to the door.

Why is there no rule in this country that men and women are not allowed to be alone... She thought frantically.

"Mr. Darcy, don't you feel that you are being rude? If you really have something to say, let's talk outside!" This paragraph is cut... It is ridiculous to say such a lack of momentum.

You see, the gentleman really laughed out of style.

Caroline couldn't count the number of times he'd laughed on one hand, but none more creepy than this one.

Caroline's eyes widened as she watched him slowly lower his head.

"Actually, it doesn't need to be so troublesome, miss." He seemed completely unaware that the distance between the two was approaching a very dangerous scale, and his tone was still unhurried: "As long as the doors and windows are closed, you are still in the room." It's best to talk."

No matter how short she is, no matter how bad her eyes are, she has reached the point where she can count his eyelashes... Still leaning over?Can I sue for sexual-harassment?

Caroline finally lowered her head in a panic and took a big step back, as if wishing she could get as far away from him as possible. Unfortunately, she couldn't hide her flushed face even with her head lowered. The sweetheart collar skirt exposed her unusually colored collarbone .

Darcy first hooked the corners of his lips, but then he thought of the previous events, and his complexion quickly sank.He walked into the room with his long legs very easily, and then carefully shut the door, click, and the sound of the lock made Caroline visibly tremble.

Darcy gave her a meaningful look, then slowly walked to the sofa with great compassion, looked at her and said: "You don't have to be so nervous, miss, after all you have done all the shocking things. At this moment, why don't you go to the sofa first?" Let's sit down, please?"

Caroline has always felt that this gentleman has noble sentiments, and even his common expression of "don't approach me, don't even think about borrowing money" is a manifestation of a gentleman's character, but this meaningful sentence made her instantly angry .

She knew that the play directed and acted by Wickham before, in the eyes of people of this era, was simply a typical example of immorality, enough for her to be sprayed to death by the saliva of seven aunts and eight aunts three or five times, but You, Mr. Darcy, shouldn't be one of them, should you?What she did was really unbearable. Caroline could accept Mr. Darcy's education and even a lesson, but she really didn't like such sarcasm.

The fire in Caroline's heart came very quickly and violently, and the unbearable feeling almost burned her low EQ.

She walked across to him, but didn't sit down, just looked at him with folded arms and said, "I know my behavior makes you very uncomfortable, so in the future you will despise me and treat me coldly or even refuse to associate with me. Opinion, this is your freedom. So I think, I also have the freedom to refuse to listen to your next 'golden words'?"

Her resisting attitude appeared so suddenly, Darcy was slightly taken aback.

This is because Caroline's impression of Darcy has gradually faded over the years, and what remains is his good character and his true, kind and beautiful personality.But in fact, Fitzwilliam Darcy is definitely not a kind person, especially his poisonous mouth, which often makes Charles very happy...

He reflected on himself, the previous sentence... the tone was indeed not very good.Therefore, the person who originally had the hidden intention of "invoking the teacher and questioning the crime" lowered his stance first.

"Sorry, I didn't..." Darcy said those words almost patiently: "I didn't despise you, nor would I treat you coldly or refuse to associate with you."

How his tone changed, Caroline didn't notice these details at all.She finally sat on the sofa farthest from him, with a tall and straight posture as if negotiating: "You don't need to tell me this, Mr. Darcy. But although my behavior is worthy of criticism, I still know basic manners, so I will listen to your next lesson. Please speak quickly!"

Good, so domineering!Georgiana, who was nestled in the closet, had long forgotten to cry...

Darcy was silent, he almost wanted to raise his hand to caress his swollen forehead, it seemed that it was really difficult to talk to this young lady, and the few conversations they had had seemed not to be called joy.She was full of precautions against him, and was so strict that she always misunderstood and accused him easily. If she hadn't caused an injury because of her last time, I'm afraid she would have severed ties with him after returning with anger...

"I'm not trying to teach you a lesson, I... I don't have such a position." Darcy frowned slightly, but he quickly continued to speak in a slow tone: "I just want to say that what you did today is actually very dangerous. You don't know the past of Mr. George Wickham. Although he is very reluctant to talk behind his back, he is really good at talking to women.

What's even more frightening is that you even said something that would make him misunderstand.Forgive me for not understanding, Miss Caroline, when women with basic judgment meet such a man, they should be able to quickly judge his frivolity and low background, and then politely stay away from him, not like you In this way, he actually made up such a story to provoke him! Darcy's tone became heavy again: "This is really unreasonable!" "

As an observer, Caroline must be sensible, and she would never grasp those very insignificant details in Mr. Darcy's speech, which she defines as a valuable character.It's a pity that she is one of the parties involved at this time. After hearing these words that can be understood as kind words, what she cares about is what he said about 'a woman with basic judgment' and 'provoking him'.

It's like belittling her...

"What is basic judgment, Mr. Darcy? I don't know if I have such an ability to be looked up to by your lofty standards, but I don't agree with your evaluation of Mr. Wickham." Caroline said insincerely: "You said he was frivolous? I'm sorry, but I think he is just cheerful, enthusiastic and very understanding, plus a handsome face that is easy to be misunderstood - of course, it is completely different from you, Darcy Monsieur! So let me speculate, and you say that the reason for his frivolity is that he is completely different from you?"

Similarly, Caroline distorted Wickham's evaluation, and her intention was not to belittle Mr. Darcy for comparison, but Darcy couldn't help thinking about her previous sentence "proud, cold, old and ugly"... He completely ignored No, that's just Caroline's fabricated fiancé to fool people.

"And birth...Mr. Darcy, you may have forgotten that our Bingley family does not have a tradition of serving people according to their origin. Louisa can like Mr. Hurst, why can't I think about Mr. Wickham's character and appearance?" , behavior can completely make up for his lack of background?"

Darcy immediately fought back as if being stabbed: "Then you mean that these things about him are enough to make you have a good impression of him, and even have the urge to marry him?"

Caroline, who is like a cockfighting cock, still choked a bit here. Although she could praise Wickham against her will to achieve the purpose of quarreling with Mr. Darcy, but if she said frankly about marrying Wickham, It's still too difficult...

So Darcy became more and more aggressive, his usually deep and calm eyes were like a dark night but a warm sun lit up, and thousands of stars were eclipsed by it.Such a strong light made Caroline almost want to run away.

It's a pity that she, who was spoiled by her family in a certain sense, still stiffened her neck and refused to give in.

"As long as scheming people have plans for you, they can always play a role that makes people feel happy. When choosing a lover, you can't just listen to what he says, but also how he does it. People with a lot of tongue can easily tease you. You are happy, so you have to pay more attention to him, and a taciturn person will never try to please you, but it will make you feel at ease."

This passage is very familiar!And indeed... a bit slapped...

Caroline was stunned for a moment, and then said embarrassingly, "It's not a gentleman's job to eavesdrop on someone's speech, Mr. Darcy."

Darcy ignored her lightly accusation, he locked her firmly with his eyes, such scorching eyes even made Caroline feel a little dangerous.

"That's exactly what you said not long ago, Miss Caroline. It seems that you remember it well, don't you? So I think there should be a reason for your previous behavior, right?" He seemed to see her Think to yourself: "As long as you're willing to tell me why you're doing it, then I think I'll understand whatever it is, I promise!"

His voice slowed down again, his tone was gentle and almost bewitching.

The deep and hoarse voice fell into her ears, almost burning her ears and paralyzing her mind.

You will understand no matter what... If you were to tell your sister what you learned earlier, would you still be so sure?

Caroline wanted to cry but couldn't. She wanted to look but didn't dare to look in Georgiana's direction, her heart was torn like a cat's paw.

She has always had a personality of being soft and not hard, not to mention that in order to save the "missing girl" of her friend's family, the upright and serious Mr. Darcy seems to rarely use a beauty trap.He is such a good friend... Charles really deserved to die in this life!

No matter how naive and ignorant Caroline is, at this time she really has no way to continue to praise Wickham against her will to deliberately anger Mr. Darcy.She wrung her fingers and said earnestly, "Mr. Darcy, I know you are a good man."

Hearing the words "good man", Darcy felt his scalp tighten.

"But you have done enough in this matter, I believe you have driven that Mr. Wickham out of Blue Gate? So this has solved my worries to a certain extent, and I can also Let me just say something here, I really won't see him again in the future. So..."

So... Darcy suddenly wanted to cover his ears.

"My unspeakable secret actually has nothing to do with you, doesn't it... Of course, I definitely don't mean that you are meddling in your own business!"

Georgiana looked at her brother's back through the gap in the closet, and suddenly felt very sympathetic...

"It's just my reason for doing this. It's really inconvenient to say it. Please forgive me."

Darcy was silent.He stared at his fingers crossed on his lap, wondering what to think.

And he was silent for a long time. Caroline sneaked a glance at the not-so-spacious wardrobe, always feeling that Georgiana would fall out of it in the next moment, and all the cover-ups she had done before would become a joke.

She felt like she was sitting on pins and needles, but the person opposite her seemed to be in a state of tranquility.

There was no other way, Caroline could only gently evict the guest: "You, do you have anything else to say?"

Mr. Darcy looked up suddenly, and there was something startling in his eyes, and Caroline felt her heart pounding just by looking at it.

"Do you really think that your business has nothing to do with me?"

Georgiana covered her heart. If she didn't remember that she must not show up at this time, she would have rushed out to stop Caroline's next words.She has already seen it completely, her brother seems to like Caroline, but unfortunately the lady on the opposite side who looks soft and soft, with a clear and understanding mind, is actually a bit dull and very good at saying hurtful words!

She felt that her brother's mind had been torn apart, what has nothing to do with you, what you are not as good as Wickham... these words are too cruel, okay?

Georgiana felt more and more guilty at this time. The disaster caused by her seemed to affect the people she never wanted to hurt, but unfortunately she was powerless against all of this...

Although Caroline is dull, she is not hard-hearted after all.Because Mr. Darcy's appearance at this time is really abnormal, the rare pleading and fragility in his eyes... Caroline suddenly closed her eyes.

"If you have nothing else, I want to rest for a while." She whispered: "I'm sorry."

The cure for grief is not only time, but other people's gossip and other people's sorrow can also save. Georgiana just witnessed these two, so she can no longer cry for others at this time.

Crawling out of the closet somewhat indecently, she ran to Caroline's side in two steps.At this time, the man who was full of presence before was no longer in the room. Even the sofa he was sitting on had been smoothed away before leaving. When the door was closed, it was as if he had never appeared before.

Caroline leaned on the sofa with her knees hugged, her chin resting on her knees, her eyes were straight, and she didn't know where she was looking.

Everything Georgiana wanted to say was stuck in her mouth.

In fact, she might not have been touched, right?After all, my brother is such a person, and today's mood is so strange, it's almost a confession.But why didn't he express his feelings?

Georgiana tilted her head in confusion.

Just as she could see that Caroline was obviously restless at this time, she felt that if her brother confessed, the relationship between the two of them would definitely go further, or become clearer faster.No one would dislike brother, right?Georgiana thought very proudly, but when her eyes fell on Caroline, she was a little uncertain again.

After all, my brother doesn't even have confidence in himself!This is really strange.

Georgiana wanted to say a few good words for Mr. Darcy, but she vaguely felt that it was better for outsiders to interfere in this matter, so as not to be self-defeating, so she suppressed her feelings very impatiently, and wanted to keep such a secret alone .It was really hard for her to die!

Caroline stayed another day at Blue Gate, and Mr. Darcy left early that afternoon.

I should have breathed a sigh of relief. After all, the previous atmosphere was a bit awkward and weird. I am afraid that they will not be able to quickly return to the way nothing happened before, but he just left. The strange thing is that Carlo Lin felt a little lost in her heart.

But on the day of leaving, not long after she parted ways with Georgiana, she heard the sound of horseshoes approaching behind her.She didn't take it seriously at first, but her carriage gradually slowed down, and then Neil reported outside: "Miss, it's Mr. Darcy."

Caroline was very surprised. She opened the car window and saw that Mr. Darcy and Isaiah were approaching very quickly one by one. Miss Lorraine, if you don't mind, we can accompany you back to London, okay?"

He didn't know where he came from, but Caroline had a guess in her heart. Maybe he had been waiting for her outside of Blue Gate?

How ridiculously self-indulgent this is, but she couldn't suppress this conjecture no matter what.

So Caroline's attitude towards him was naturally much softer, and she even thought of his previous injury very quickly: "Of course it's the best, Mr. Darcy, do you want to take a carriage... I mean, Has your wound healed?"

"It's all right now." He nodded his thanks, "I'll just ride a horse, thank you for your kindness!"

Caroline was slightly embarrassed, she felt that she was getting more and more hypocritical.

The carriage quickly continued on the road. For some unknown reason, she didn't close the glass windows completely, and then drove forward for an unknown amount of time. She finally heard the chatter between Neil and Axel.

"Sir and I went to Rosen Town earlier, where there is the Darcy family's farm. I didn't expect such a coincidence to meet you on the way back." Aisel said briskly.

After that, all the way to London, the number of times Caroline talked with Mr. Darcy can be counted on the fingers.
