“I know that my father tried to convince you to forget about our betrothal.” Catching his eyes widening, she smiled softly. “It does not come as a surprise to me to hear that he did such a thing – but to learn that you would not be convinced to end our betrothal has turned my heart towards you all the more. It is the first time that someone has ever seen me for who I truly am, the first time that someone has valued me for more than how I appear outwardly. I cannot help but love you. I cannot help but find my heart drawing itself to yours, longing to be close to you forever.”
Lord Foster dropped his head and kissed her long and hard. Alice leaned into him all the more, his arms around her and her hands around his neck, brushing the edge of his hair. Between their lips came a promise of happiness that they both knew would endure for the rest of their days.
Best wishes for Lord Foster and Alice! They went through so many obstacles to recover his fortune and be together forever!
