Chapter 297
"So, what are your plans for the coming days? Are you planning to spend all your time with Rose?" Catherine asked.
"Would that be so wrong?" Zayne replied, his gaze fixed on the scenery outside the carriage.
Catherine and Zayne sat on opposite seats facing each other.
"It is not wrong. I do not know if she mentioned it to you but I am thinking of introducing her to young ladies and having her invite them to the estate for them to get to know her well. She needs friends. She cannot only have you since she will get bored no matter how exciting you are," said Catherine.
Zayne already knew that Rose would need friends. "I am not against her inviting anyone to our home. I have only stated not wanting her in the palace. There aren’t any rules for Rose. I do not see why you keep looking for my permission."
"Because you can be a grumpy man who doesn’t like anyone in his home and you are still her husband. It is quite normal to ask for your opinion. It is good that you are open to her making friends. Her time here will be better once she has friends to keep her busy. She has plenty of dresses to use but nowhere to go," Catherine said, hoping Zayne would be willing to attend parties.
"If you wish to have Rose accompany you somewhere then ask her. Why are you telling me? I am trusting that you aren’t planning to take her anywhere she would be questioned and not enjoy her time. Are you?" Zayne asked, turning to face his mother.
"Of course not. I wouldn’t do that to Paige so why Rose? I just want her to have fun and I am worried about her being at home so much. I just know she’ll be excited to plan a little gathering even if she doesn’t end up being friends with all the ladies. Does she know about all the deaths in the palace?" Catherine wondered.
"No. If you value your visits to my home, you will not bring it up," Zayne warned Catherine.
