A Lady Of Rooksgrave Manor นิยาย & เรื่องราว

Perhaps, the news of my unladylike remarks on the old rags, gown rather, of that widow from yesterday was all over the headlines now, she thought. By then, her maid, Eloisa, appeared on the doorstep to take charge of her mistress. “My apology for being informed late. You may leave Lady Francesca on my care now,” the young lady’s maid said apologizing. She had run an errand this morning and got delayed on her way back home due to the throng of people outside. No one could possibly beat London on gossips intrigue since the stones of St. James’s Palace was piled up from mud into a castle.

Rose stopped the cab at The Manchester’s mansion and paid the taxi driver, grabbing her coat on the chair handle. Her legs made loud noises as she walked on the wet ground with splashes wetting her hard boot. It was a not too good weather for a woman of her type. The last time she had visited this mansion was twelve years ago when she was still in good terms with Sloane’s father. The citizens had been invited for the wedding between Ray Manchester and Nike Raymond, an extended family to Maxwell Manchester that was the first and last day she had entered the building.

It was the Sinclair Manor, ranked number three of the top ten biggest manors in Atlanta, thanks to its exquisite appearance as a modernized castle with its six tall peaking towers, all of which were coated white, surrounded with a large lawn almost three-quarters the size of a football field. Back in the kitchen, the woman had taken the kettle from the electric stove and went on to pour it into a tall cream china cup that had tiny multi-colored flower petals designed all around it. She clearly knew her way in what she was doing, moving quickly over to a large table where a plastic tray lay, on which she placed two croissants and a pouched egg in a tiny cup. Grabbing the tray, the woman quick

When she opened the door, she was blinded by the low-key luxurious decorations. She looked at the woman lazily walking down the stairs in loungewear and exclaimed, “Ruth, is your husband the richest man in Sommerset?!” “No...” “But isn’t this mansion owned by the head of the Blakewell family?” Ruth paused for a while. Then, she explained to Pearl that she bought it from the richest man through a friend. Pearl did not believe her and wanted to question her more, but Ruth did not give her a chance and went straight to the point. “Do you want to fight back and make DH give you a public apology?”

He made it sound like he despised the lady and I was eager to see her for myself. I was lucky enough to catch a back glimpse of the woman as she left the reception room. From her shape and dressing, I guessed she was not the young lady I had imagined her to be, she was a woman in her middle ages, probably around fifty or more. From her body movement, I could tell that she was walking away in disappointment. She turned back just as she was about to walk out the exit and looked towards the camera, almost like she knew it was there. Her face looked a bit familiar and I wondered if I had seen her before. Who is this lady and why does Mr. Blackwood hate her so much?

Standing proudly against the backdrop of dense trees and the fiery afternoon sky, the palatial mansion bathed in the golden glow of the waning daylight. Upon seeing a pair of vagrants coming toward the gate, a footman hurried out of his post. "Keep out, pair of you! We don't entertain beggars here! Go on, get lost!" Arabella gawked at the inhospitable welcome and bit back. "We are not beggars! I am Lady Arabella Grace Adrianne Winthrop, the niece of your mistress, Lady Virginia Winthrop." Startled at the mention of his employer, the footman staggered, but then squinted his eyes.

Then it all came rushing back. The manor. The study. William’s cold dismissive expression at dinner except when looking at Katherine and David. The word bride echoing in my ears reminding me of Lord Rathcliffe's declaration in his study. “Come in,” I said, my voice still thick with exhaustion. The door opened and an elderly woman stepped inside, closing it quietly behind her. She bowed her head respectfully. Her hair was neatly pinned beneath a modest cap, her brown eyes observant but kind. “I am Emma, ma'am. I will be attending to you.”

Well I remember him chuckling with Austin that night of the Conference so I’m not exactly wanting to be his friend either. He beckoned forward a keen-looking petite little woman. All brown hair and sharp eyes. “This is Etherly, she will be your ladies maid. Mina! Organise Miss Roxana the second palatial suite. She is to reside appropriately.” A tall blonde woman, presumably Mina ducked and bowed towards Zaw. She was plain enough, blonde hair scraped into a bun and big lips forced into a serious expression. “Roxana…Roxie?” she whispered as she took the rucksack from me.

Rose chuckled to herself at that thought, it would have to be one hell of a man. Arriving at the academy Rose saw Madame Blanchard talking with another lady by the main courtyard, this must be Madame Gruage. She was shocked to see this lady in what... breeches?! They made her look slimmer and showed off her shape more than any imagination needed. She had long raven black hair braided down her back and wore a blouse tucked into her pant-breeches with what looked like riding boots. Instantly Rose reconsidered her choice of attire, she was not at all dressed for riding! Now more nervous than ever, her carriage pulled up to deliver her to whatever awaited with this woman.

Roxanne sighed. This friend of hers was making her go crazy with questions. She sighed and pushed her away. Let's go Inside first.. The sky has began to weep.. *Dubois Manor* In the Mansion of Dubois.. The car pulled up in front of the mansion. It looked beautiful and dark...one could sense danger around this surrounding. The short - fat man got down and opened the door for his Boss's friend. What do you think...How can you describe that lady we saw, Master Zach? The Butler asked.
