The Honor of My Family

Chapter 37

We then walked into the room together. I know the guys were looking at Elizabeth and think how amazing she looks. I am one lucky guy. She defiantly took my words out of my mouth. I was speechless when I saw her.

The night was going good. I danced with Elizabeth a few times. But she isn't forcing me to dance a lot because she knows I hate it. But I still danced with her a few times. I was talking with my cousin Fitzwilliam, Charles, and Joe.

"You are one lucky man." Joe said to me.

"I know. She is amazing." I said truthfully.

"So, are you ready for this?" My cousin asked me.

"Yes. I am ready for this." I told him.

"Okay. Now the big question is, are you in love with her?" Joe asked me.

Charles looked at me. He knows the real reason for this marriage and we agreed not to tell anyone the real reason. I then looked over to Elizabeth and smiled. I do love her. I started to love her at the first time I saw her. She was the most beautiful girl in the room. I then said,

"Yes."

Charles looked at me surprised. He never really knows my real feelings about her. I hide all my feelings for her. I acted like a jerk when I first meet her. Now I am trying to show her a different side of me. I am hoping she would start have feelings for me some day.

*Elizabeth's POV*

I was talking to everyone and walking the room meeting everyone. Georgianna was by my side most of the time. I was standing there with Georgianna, Jane, and Charlotte talking. Just then Caroline came over to me.

"Elizabeth, you look so pretty." Caroline said.

"Thank you, Caroline. You look really nice yourself." I said to her.

"Thank you. This is a really lovely ball." She said to me.

"Yes. Georgianna really did a lovely job on it. I truly thing I can't do anything like this myself." I told her truthfully.

"Oh, I think you could. But Georgianna is amazing job. She has a talent for it." She said.

"Thanks. It was fun doing it. I wanted to do something special for you and my brother." Georgianna said.

"It is something special. A really help for me. Mostly getting the awkward meetings out of the away." I told her.

"So, are you ready for this Elizabeth? You are giving up a lot." She asked me.

"Yes. I am ready. I am willing to do it." I told her truthfully.

"Do you love him?" Caroline asked me.

I looked at her surprised about the question. No one really asked me that question yet. Of course, it would be her who would ask that question.

"Of course, she loves him. You can just tell. Mostly when she looks at him." Georgianna said.

"Georgianna, is right. Why would Elizabeth not have feelings for her? We all know there is something there." Jane said.

"I am going to get some air." I told them.

I walked away from the ball. I just needed some air. The question Caroline asked was a lot to think about. Jane wasn't lying about my true feelings. There is something thing there. I just don't know what. I am seeing a different side of him.
