Chapter 310
Zayne placed his shirt over Rose’s shoulders to cover her up since she was still concerned about anyone seeing her. He moved the pieces of grass from her hair and thought of putting a flower to see how it would look.
He was right that Rose would look even more beautiful while surrounded by flowers. When they called the painter to do their portraits, Zayne needed one for himself of Rose surrounded by the very same flowers in the garden. Perhaps the same ones Rose said they had ruined the innocence of.
"The garden looks good," he said.
Rose glared at Zayne for speaking of the garden’s beauty after what he had done. He should have noticed it before when she was outside with the gardeners, not now after what they had done. "We must never speak of this again. I feel like the flowers are aware and the servants certainly know."
"They do not," Zayne promised. "Telling them to stay in their quarters could mean anything. You weren’t so concerned a moment ago."
Rose didn’t have an excuse for it. She was too caught up in the moment to worry about anyone hearing or seeing them.
Zayne continued to fix her hair. "You looked beautiful among the flowers. Do you want new dresses with flower patterns on them? I see a lot of women wearing those kinds of dresses around spring or bright coloured dresses. We need to find you a good dressmaker."
"I have plenty of dresses. I have not worn many of the dresses I got as gifts and I intend to wear them more than once. I don’t need anymore yet," Rose replied.
"You will need more dresses and coats when winter comes then you will need new dresses when spring comes around. I am not short on money so don’t worry about the cost. There is still much you need and I have set aside money for you to use. I’m aware my mother had a talk with you," Zayne said, remembering his mother said she would change Rose not wanting to spend money.
