Chapter 247
Catherine didn’t have her mind made up on Rose yet. What she needed was to speak to Zayne to understand why he got married in such a rush.
How did he go from wanting to put it off to marrying to then marrying when he was out at war?
It wasn’t like him to get distracted when he had a duty to do.
"You must be tired," Catherine said as she made Rose walk around the estate. "You should be resting with him. The trip to get here was long so it is wrong of me to keep you walking with me. I will wait around for when Zayne wakes up. There is much to do," she said, looking at the walls.
"I don’t need to rest yet. I didn’t do much on the trip here. I’d be happy to help you if you are looking to decorate already. Zayne says I will want to make it look like a woman now lives here," said Rose.
Catherine couldn’t agree more. "You should. Add a little touch to it to make it feel like home."
"Does that mean you accept me?" Rose asked, needing to know how Catherine felt.
"I don’t know what I feel about you. It hasn’t been long since we met and I haven’t spoken to my son to hear his side of how this happened, but fear not. Whether anyone accepts you or not, Zayne was never one to be concerned about our opinions," Catherine replied.
"I don’t dislike you but I am a little concerned about the men in the palace who are hard on him using you as a weakness. You will need to be strong if you want to survive here. You’re a Hamilton now so naturally, you will grow to be able to handle the pressure," Catherine assured Rose.
