moon-simmers: Clermont Manor, Brindlenton Bay 1783.Rosemary’s brother’s family left early, but Lord and Lady Redwood decided to stay for lunch with the young couple. Christobal was still trying to pretend not to be bored and disgusted by the visit of his in-laws, while Rosemary was still trying to be a little more gracious.The Redwoods continued to criticize every room they passed, they were now complaining about the delay of the food and the lack of silverware on the table. Rosemary was already reaching the edge of her patience until her mother said something that was the straw that broke the camel’s back.Lady Redwood: I don’t know how you intend to take care of two children in this place, you and your brother have had much more comfort than is expected from people like us.Rosemary: I will manage to avoid being a detached and unsuccessful mother like you. Is it not because of my lack of education that I have been disinherited as if I were a servant?Lady Redwood: Oh my Watcher, Rosemary.Lord Redwood: How dare you treat your mother like that?Rosemary: I have treated her better than you have been to me in a long time. I allowed you to see your grandchildren and my home trusting in your kindness but I regret it the minute you crossed the door. So, please excuse Cristobal and me. We ask you both to leave Clermont Manor.The Redwoods didn’t say a word. No one had ever treated them with so poor decorum. Rosemary trembled as she watched her parents walk out of her life again, but this time by her own choice. Cristobal said nothing either, but watched his wife’s voracious and strong character. -- source link
