Skye was annoyed by this statement.This lady is from a completely different circle from her, and Skye never imagined that he would be caught in such a routine one day.

The fact is that, generally speaking, the first is verbal sarcasm, but you have no room to argue for yourself, once she is not sarcastic to the fullest, you can say that there is something wrong with your tutor.Afterwards, she might recommend a relative of her own to Mr. Darcy, perhaps Miss Bingley.

Skye looked at Miss Bingley, who was sitting on the sofa with a stern face.

No, it shouldn't be.Although she looks bright, she has already been proposed by a rich man in the United States.She had no chance of starting over with Mr. Darcy.

So I just want to make fun of it, which is... boring enough.

Skye didn't bother to answer Lady Catherine's words.She sat beside Mr. Darcy, and spoke to Georgiana in a gentle tone: "I saw a nice coffee shop near where I live, maybe if you have time, you can go have a cup of coffee with me."

Georgiana's condition has not been very good.This may have something to do with her small social circle.Skye didn't want to say narcissistically that Anwen was an irreplaceable existence.

But maybe they have all realized that this is a fact.

"Miss Holt, I'm talking to you!"

Lady Catherine, who was ignored, was furious.She probably didn't meet the type of Skye who didn't answer.Sitting there blushed all of a sudden.However, winter has just passed, and she has no fan to fan the wind, so she can only pant and be speechless.

When Georgiana saw this scene, she looked at Mr. Darcy in a daze.Her brother frowned tightly, trying to suppress his displeasure.This leaves Georgiana wondering if she should answer Skye's invitation.

Skye saw their reactions all in his eyes.She wanted to smooth things over, after all, she was almost past the age where she could be willful.If it takes a long time for Aunt Catherine, it is not worth it in terms of benefits.

But Mr. Darcy, who was sitting on the side, spoke: "Skye is my fiancee, and she will be the hostess of Bloomberg in the future. This is something that cannot be changed, so I also hope that from now on, you will just take her As one's own family, Aunt Catherine."

"Then how much is Miss Holt's dowry?" After a short pause, Mrs. Catherine changed the entry point.

Skye has really struggled with this issue for a long time, and she is a little curious about how much is appropriate to bring.Especially when she was about to hand over the remaining assets to Elsie, Skye became more and more hesitant about how much money she wanted to leave in her name.

"My dowry . . . is somewhere between Miss Bingley and Miss Georgiana."

This was indeed Skye's plan, but speaking out on this occasion also meant to suppress Miss Bingley.

"You're not sure about the exact amount of your dowry? Do you need me to introduce you to a better lawyer? Don't think that you are like this one, and you don't know how to do things."

Lady Catherine was indeed very angry when she heard Darcy speak for Skye.But when she talked about the 'dowry' issue with Skye, she regarded Skye as Darcy's fiancée.Mr. Darcy could not interrupt his aunt again and again, so he could only listen to Skye's answer.

"My brother's death convinced me that life is fleeting. Maybe money is the same, there is no exact amount?"

Georgiana frowned. She heard Skye mention Anwen. This time, she ignored Miss Bingley holding her hand and said, "I think what Skye said has some truth." After all, she is Anwen. Wen's sister, just this one, Georgiana thinks, this is not bad.

"You...really..." Mrs. Catherine saw that Georgiana, who had always been well-behaved, was also on Skye's side, so there was really no need for her to stay here to humiliate herself.Since there is no way to change Mr. Darcy's decision... Mrs. Catherine stood up from the sofa at once, and she no longer gave Mr. Darcy any face, but said angrily: "I came here from my own manor , I want to see what kind of fiancee my nephew has chosen. Now that I have met... I may not be able to change your mind, but I just want to say that your mother may not have thought that her son would choose Such a wife."

Skye also stood up immediately, she didn't like it when someone said a harsh word to her, and then left without manners.Therefore, before Madam Catherine walked out of the living room, she replied decisively: "If my brother hadn't passed away, he would also have a title. I doubt if you are trying to use Fitzwilliam's memory of his mother to sway her." his opinion."

With her back to everyone, Mrs. Catherine, who had already walked to the door, stopped and listened to Skye's words.She was very angry with Skye, but she stood still for half a minute, and no one came up to smooth things over.Madam Catherine, who had never been treated like this, walked out of the living room resentfully.

"Did I say too much?" Skye looked at Miss Bingley, she turned the gun and pointed it directly at Miss Bingley who was sitting on the sofa with a complicated expression.

"No, I think you're right." Miss Bingley also stood up, she was a little embarrassed by Skye's gaze, and Skye's dead brother looked extremely aggressive.Miss Bingley said with a sigh: "I think . . . you were right all along."

Miss Bingley, too, soon took her leave.She walked quite neatly this time, as if she had finally bid farewell to the past.She did not look at Mr. Darcy again as she went away.Although Darcy has always been her ideal marriage partner, he has already made a choice, and her entanglement has become very sorry for her pride.

Skye is the one who can confidently reject Lady Catherine, and it will never be too useless.

Since Skye and Mr. Darcy were able to get together despite all difficulties, her giving up would not be very cheap.

Anwen's tombstone was chosen in an empty cemetery.Skye visited his grave one last time in the cemetery before leaving London.

Anwen's tombstone stands quietly on a piece of land with a quiet environment. There is a big tree not far from the tombstone. In summer, one can imagine the tombstone under the shade of the tree, protected from the scorching sun.

On the black marble-faced tombstone, a well-known author wrote an epitaph, in very beautiful handwriting, and it read--Let everything end here.

This was Anwen's best wish, and after his death, it was indeed fulfilled.

The weather in London is always unsatisfactory. Skye doesn't want to say that this is to heighten her sad mood, but holding a black umbrella and paying homage to the dead in the hazy rain is indeed something that fits the meaning of the title.

She presented a bouquet of beautiful roses for Anwen's grave.

Someone walked up behind Skye and broke the silence: "Does Anwen like roses very much?"

"No," Skye didn't turn her head. She heard Georgiana's voice and frowned slightly. She shouldn't be in this place, but she still explained: "It's just that I like it. The dead don't always have much choice gone."

Georgiana said nothing.She walked up to Skye and placed a bouquet of lilies on Anwen's grave.

"We won't see him for a long time." Georgiana looked at the bright red roses and pure white lilies. Both bouquets were matched with some baby's breath, and the red and white were very conspicuous.But the dew and rain on the petals meet and slowly drip down, like tears, which is shocking.

"It's all natural." Georgiana must have been a very qualified family member.Skye turned the umbrella handle absently.They didn't drink coffee together in any coffee shop afterwards.Georgiana can keep a distance from her. If she must investigate the reason, it is probably because she doesn't want to be seen by Anwen's sister?

"Aren't you sad?"

"It's useless to be sad, I will always remember him. But... Anwen is just a passer-by to you. You will meet a very good man in the future, and then he will walk out of your life."

"I hope there will be such a day." The person beside him said in a low voice.

Skye looked sideways. Georgiana had lowered the edge of her umbrella, but she still saw her crying.

"Of course. Fitzwilliam and I will help you."

They stood in the rain for a long time.Georgiana told Skye what happened in the corridor for the first time. She poured out a lot of her inner thoughts, but in the end, nothing happened.

"Can I be alone with Anwen for a while?" Georgiana looked at Skye with red eyes.Her skirt was all wet.Skye noticed that she was wearing a dark blue dress today.Georgiana can't wear black to commemorate something, such a color choice is a subtle way for her to express emotions.

"No. I think I should be the last to leave."

Skye sends away Georgiana, who still has regrets.

Because of Anwen's relationship, she will travel in black for the next few months.The black veil on the top hat covered most of Skye's face, and she looked at the tombstone with a vague expression.

After a while.A man with an umbrella came up to her.

"It's all over here." Skyhua used Anwen's epitaph, with a little more sarcasm in his tone.

"Afterwards is a new beginning." The man lowered his turned up collar, revealing his side face.A familiar face, unscathed, not a pile of coke, nor a handful of ashes.

He sighed and asked helplessly, "When did you find out?"
