Chapter 1055: Chapter 1055: What Does Brother Baron Like? Chapter 1055: Chapter 1055: What Does Brother Baron Like? Enna Clark listened intently.
Scarlett, however, couldnāt concentrate and was absent-mindedly browsing through a few locations when she suddenly interrupted the housekeeper and, with twinkling big eyes, said, āIām more interested in hearing about Brother Baronās childhood. Can you tell me about it?ā
Brother Baronā¦
Enna Clark furrowed her brow slightly.
The housekeeper also felt it was impolite of her to interrupt others so abruptly, but considering her status as a distinguished guest, he replied politely, āYour Highness, what would you like to know about the young masterās childhood?ā
With sparkling eyes full of excitement, Scarlett said, āAnything about Brother Baron would be great. I want to hear it all.ā
She spoke with such direct warmth that the housekeeper couldnāt help but frown, but he quickly masked it and said, āThe young master was a loner as a child and didnāt have any particular stories to tell.ā
His evasive answer was essentially a veiled refusal to Scarlett. But the highborn princess seemed not to notice the housekeeperās prevarication and rejection at all. Her red lips curled into a smile, and her eyes also bent like crescents, revealing her heightened interest as she continued to inquire, āSo Brother Baron was a loner since childhood, no wonder⦠But did he have anything he liked? I heard that Brother Baron enjoys collecting red wine, but it seemed he didnāt like the gift I brought. Since my visit is a rare occasion, I would like to give Brother Baron a greeting gift he truly likes.ā
The young masterās likesā¦
The housekeeper glanced at Enna Clark standing beside him.
It seemed as though the young master had never shown any particular interest in anything; collecting red wine was, at most, just a hobby.
Speaking of likes, the young master seemed to have shown this emotion towards Ms. Clark.
A particularly strong liking, that is.
Surely the princess couldnāt possibly consider offering Ms. Clark to the young master as a greeting gift.
Thinking this, he couldnāt possibly say it out loud. He lowered his gaze, avoiding Scarlettās coquettish eyes, and answered in a straightforward manner, āIām sorry, Your Highness, but I do not know what the young master likes.ā
āIs that soā¦ā Disappointment was hard to hide in Scarlettās eyes, but she quickly put on a smile and generously stated, āNever mind, Iāll think of something myself. Iām sure I can come up with a gift that Brother Baron will like.ā
The housekeeper remained noncommittal, leading her to continue the tour at the front.
When they approached the garden, she suddenly stopped, blinked her large, expressive eyes, pointed toward the rockery, and said, āWhatās inside the rockery? It looks nice, I want to go over there and take a look.ā
āInside thereās a small flower garden. If Your Highness wishes to see it, I will accompany you there,ā said the housekeeper, who hadnāt anticipated her interest in the rockery and was prepared to walk that way.
To his surprise, Scarlett stopped him, āNo need, you are older, and those small stone paths are too slippery; it would be bad if you were to trip and fall.ā
āButā¦ā the housekeeper said, troubled.
Before he could finish speaking, Scarlett unexpectedly wrapped her arm around Enna Clarkās and said intimately, āIsnāt Sister here? She can take me for a stroll just as well.ā
āRight?ā
Enna Clark looked into those beautiful large eyes staring at her, unsure why she had suddenly made such an intimate gesture.
She distinctly felt the princessās hostility towards her, yet in the blink of an eye, it was as if she had become a different person.
Could it be that the hostility she had sensed earlier was all a misunderstanding?
