25. Chapter XXVII

"Caroline, I've got it all in order according to what you said!"

Caroline? Don't even call Miss? When did you guys chat?

Darcy didn't have to look in the mirror to know what his expression was like now, because Charles on the side had grown up and wanted to go out of his body.

Caroline was embarrassed for a moment, and hurriedly walked out of the dining table and saw Baron Hall who was put in, "Sir, why did you come so early?" โ€

Baddeley raised an eyebrow, "Aren't you looking forward to it?" I'm looking forward to seeing you and Mr. Charles Bingley! โ€

Caroline: Why are the words so strange coming out of your mouth_(:ะทใ‚โˆ )_

Darcy said with a dark face, "Baron Badley Hall, long time no see. โ€

A certain baron looked surprised, he blinked, and looked at Caroline again, "Caroline, is Mr. Darcy living with you now?" Can I come and stay too? โ€

Caroline: "...... I refuse. โ€

"Good morning, Mr. Darcy." Baddeley smirked, the image that had been sorted out early in the morning was a little loose because of the bumps in the carriage on the road, and the hair was gently drooping, hanging down from the corners of his eyes but very chic.

Darcy couldn't help twitching the corners of his eyes, he had already said that he didn't like this baron, and he felt uncomfortable even seeing it, not because of anything else, but because of this person's style and character, which made Darcy, a strict person, feel nothing.

Charles also walked out of the cafeteria, "I heard my name, it shouldn't be a delusion, right?" - Oh, Baron Hall, welcome! I can't wait to meet you! โ€

"What a coincidence, Mr. Bingley, I expect a lot from you." Baddeley laughed too.

Darcy frowned as he watched the two of them play dumb riddles, a little impatient, "Excuse me, what's going on?" โ€

Seeing this, Caroline hurriedly invited Baron Hall to have breakfast together, "Why don't you eat together?" I just said it at the dinner table, I want to come early in the morning, sir, you don't have breakfast, right? โ€

"Of course, with such a beautiful invitation from Miss Caroline, I naturally would not decline."

It is unprecedented to have such a twist and turn in a breakfast.

Darcy listened to the explanations of several people before he understood, "I see, is it cooperation?" โ€

"Something concrete, uh...... I don't know if I can say it to my husband. Caroline was a little embarrassed, she didn't really understand the provisions of the law at this time, whether the content of the contract could be known by unrelated people, so she looked at Baddeley for help.

The other party obviously enjoyed the look, "Oh, if I can work with Mr. Darcy, I'll explain it to him." โ€

That's a refusal?

Darcy was silent, and continued to drink tea with his head down, the Bentley cook's heart had always been deep.

Charles replied with a smile, "I think this building is great, if you can, it would be nice if the cooperation of other industries could also be with Baron Hall." โ€

Baddeley made a surprised expression, "Then I'm too welcome!" Mr. Charles, I swear that our cooperation will not end here. โ€

"Hahaha, Mr. Baddeley, you're not bad either!"

Caroline: ...... Hehe, so soon to call a brother? Charles, you're so good.

After the meal, Baddeley Hall declared that he had something to do next, and left first.

Charles and Caroline said that they would welcome him as a guest in the future, of course, Caroline was forced, she didn't want this gentleman to come again, and she felt uncomfortable when she saw him.

You think, whoever is treated as fish and meat, the other party is still a knife, you can't be happy, right?

Caroline took a deep breath and turned her head, only to meet a pair of dark eyes, and her breath was stuck in her throat.

"Mr. Darcy......

"Miss Caroline." The other person asked, "May I ask you to answer a question for me?" โ€

Caroline nodded confusedly, "Of course, sir, do you have any questions for me?" โ€

"Yes, miss, I wonder if you have agreed to Baron Hall's courtship?"

Caroline: Huh? Sir, why is your brain hole as big as ever?

###

Bentley house, living room.

Charles was out, so there were only two people in the house, except for the servants, Caroline and Darcy.

Darcy sat on the leather couch of their house and licked his dry lips, the box in his hand still not being delivered, because it had been interrupted by the arrival of Baron Hall.

Caroline is also in a state of confusion at the moment, she really doesn't understand why Mr. Darcy thinks that Baron Hall has courted her, she is not a heartthrob, and Mr. Hall's appearance is obviously something else!

But Caroline forgot about it, and sometimes, only when one person fell in love with another, everyone in the world would be regarded as a rival in love.

Darcy always felt that Miss Caroline was very good, so it was only natural that Baron Hall would be attracted.

- Where did the fallacy come from!

"Ahem, miss, this is the gift I chose for you." Darcy finally spoke first, he was afraid that if he didn't speak, he would have no courage, which is not what a gentleman should be afraid of.

Caroline nodded blankly and took the small box, "Can I open it?" โ€

"Of course, I hope you like it."

Unpack the beautifully packaged box, inside is a crescent white ribbon, lace pattern, very chic, in the interface with a gradient color, the pattern is Rococo style, very gorgeous.

This is not quite in line with Meliton's painting style, to be honest, so Caroline was a little surprised, "This is beautiful, how did Mr. find it?" โ€

Darcy was slightly relieved to see that she really liked it, "There is a sentence I must agree with Charles, there are still some things that can be accepted in the country, I bought this from Miss Jenny, the white of the crescent moon is very flattering to your complexion." โ€

Miss Jenny? Caroline paused for a moment, she remembered that when she was in Merryton in the town, several very chic little shops attracted her attention, and there was actually Miss Jenny's shop, which was said to have been hand-sewn by Miss Jenny.

In this era when large machines have become a trend, it is already a rare thing to use manual production instead of machines, after all, people who open stores always want to be convenient and fast, and using machines is always more time, money and effort than manpower.

"Really? Thank you. Caroline thanked her softly, and to be honest, the atmosphere suddenly became awkward, making her even more overwhelmed.

So I could only lower my head, play with the ribbon, and then put it on my arm. Maybe it's because she is watched, and she operates with one hand, and the final knot is always badly tied.

Caroline shuddered as she saw the handsome gentleman kneeling on one knee, earnestly knotting the ribbon in her hand.

His tall nose shadowed the side of his face, his thick eyelashes fluttered slightly, and he pursed his lips tightly, as if he were dealing with the most precious thing in the world.

Caroline was in a trance, and suddenly withdrew her hand, and her face suddenly burned.

The other party paused, and then slowly lowered his hand, Darcy kept kneeling on one knee and pursed his lower lip, "I'm sorry, I was reckless." โ€

Then he stood up, sat down across from Caroline, took a disguised sip of tea from his cup.

Caroline was speechless for a moment, she looked at her wrist, a perfect bow had been tied, she looked up and saw that Darcy was actually looking at herself, and quickly looked away.

Fuck Mr. Darcy is too fucking handsome, isn't it......

While frantic in her heart, while trying to suppress her subtle thoughts, Caroline's cheeks were pink and tender, and she looked like an ordinary bosom. Spring girls make no difference.

Her EQ and IQ are not low, as a woman in the new century, if it was in her own era that she encountered what happened just now, a man helped her tie a bracelet, she might just speed up her hormone secretion, and she would not be narcissistic enough to say that this person likes herself, at best, she will feel that maybe this person is going to make an appointment with you or something.

But this was in the nineteenth century, and it was Mr. Darcy! I'm still on one knee!

Sir, you can't let me think too much, hey!

Mr. Darcy, I can't bear you if you don't follow the script, what do you mean by flirting with me now? Okay, I'm just your friend's sister? I won't be able to control you like this!

Even if you tell yourself over and over again in your heart, you are not the heroine, you have no halo on you, even if you are close to the water, it is impossible to get the only moon.

However, Caroline couldn't help but wonder what Mr. Darcy meant.

Sometimes women are very strange, men's behavior has already told you what he thinks, but you just let him say it, tell you that he cares about you, and what he thinks about is you.

Caroline was no exception, and at that moment she suddenly understood whether Mr. Darcy was interested in herself, but in her heart she was at war with heaven and man, saying yes on one hand, and not stupidly on the other, just a gift.

So, she wanted to listen to Mr. Darcy's explanation, but she had a desire to escape, could she pretend that she didn't know anything?

However, Mr. Darcy did not give her a chance to hesitate, and he simply said to her:

"Miss Caroline Bingley, I want to tell you something."

Caroline: "Huh? โ€

"I hope I don't offend you, because I'm driven crazy by jealousy!" Darcy suddenly lowered his voice, and his dark eyes swelled with unknown love, "Miss Caroline, you once asked me,
