Chapter 256
Catherine feared she got a little ahead of herself. "Do not think about it now. Your husband is stuck in the palace so it is not a good time for you to have your head in a book unless you need a distraction. Luckily for us, Zayne intends to keep you away from where there will be a lot of attention."
That gave Catherine time to help Rose.
Had Rose been thrown right into the palace they would have needed to move fast.
"I still need a distraction. I am good at overthinking so I might think the worst about where Zayne is now," Rose replied.
"Then I will distract you. You haven’t added your touch to the estate from what I have seen so far. It screams that only a man lives here. There aren’t any flowers to liven up the place. Then there is your dress," Catherine said, inspecting the dress that Rose wore now.
Rose looked down at the dress she knew came from Charlotte. She thought it was beautiful. "What is wrong with my dress?"
"It is beautiful but the styles of the kingdom are different. If you want to stand out, you should keep them but if you want to blend in I know where you can get plenty of lovely dresses. It is up to you," Catherine gave Rose the choice.
"My dresses were made by special friends at home and Zayne gifted me many as a wedding gift. It was never my intention to stand out. I am just grateful for what Zayne and my friends have given me. I will not get rid of my dresses but I do not mind getting a few in the future to match what the ladies wear here," Rose answered.
Catherine smiled. "That was a wonderful response. You were calm and firm with what you wanted while also pleasing me by being open to our styles. The potential is there and you seem willing to learn. All hope is not lost."
