Chapter 7 I put on the dress Rose bought for me. Truthfully, it was beautiful. I loved its gold colour and they way it fit my body. I tried to talk her out of buying it for me, but she was incredibly stubborn. It was incredibly expensive, and I was more than okay with something cheaper, however, she wasn't having it.
I had been living with the Kensingtons for the past week and to be honest, it wasn't bad at all. I was at the guest house most of the time, but I did have dinner with them two times, I was glad that they were givingthe privacy 1 needed. I applied the final touches to my makeup and made my way to the main mansion. I was pretty nervous because I didn't know what to expect from everybody once they heard the news 1. up. 1 A maid opened the door for me, and I walked inside the house. I sat on the big couch in the living room and waited for any of them to show u wasn't used to attending such events because Mr Harolds didn't use to take me. I was barely known "Hi, sweetheart.

She bought it when we were shopping together and I knew that it looked perfect on her, but in looked way better now Soon, Julian and his dad cdownstairs. When Julian saw me, he stopped for a moment, eyeing me. I didn't know if he was going to throw a rude remark or not, but I didn't really have it into bicker with him. My nerves were already all over the place.
"Emily, you look absolutely amazing, Uncle Steven said as he approached me. He askedto call him that on my second day here when I called him Mr. Kensington.
"Thank you" I blushed, not used to that amount of compliments.
"You can ride with Julian tonight. You two must be seen together all the time. This is your first official appearance, okay?" he said and I nodded, then my eyes met Julian's.
He looked handsin his dark blue suit and white shirt. How could a colour of a suit bring out the blue of someone's eyes? Everything about him. was on point and his brown hair was perfectly styled.
"Let's go." That was all he said before marching towards the front door. I was about to follow him, but Rose heldback.

"You do not leave her like that, and she's not supposed to follow you. She walks first and you walk behind her. I believe I taught you better than this. I dont expect you to treat her like that "Sorry." He looked down, then he lifted his face and looked at me. "Shall we go?" I nodded and walked in front of him, and he followed behind.
The car ride was full of silence. I had nothing to say to him and he probably didn't have anything to say to me. I wanted to get to know him. I wanted to make our lives easier, but I couldn't just do that on my own and I had a feeling that he wasn't going to letbreak any b 115 When we arrived, Julian put on the act of a gentleman. He opened the door forand didn't let go of my hand as we walked together towards the entrance. My heartbeats accelerated the moment I saw the amount of people inside. The fact that many eyes fell on us did no "Breathe in," he whispered, standing in front ofonce we reached our table. He acted like he was fixing my hair, and I was glad that he was blocking my view.

I don't expect my future wife to embarrass my family" Gone was the man who had just nursedthrough the mini panic attack I was about to suffer from. Soon, Rose and Uncle Steven arrived.
I didn't want to be here. That was a huge show I didn't want to participate in, but I didn't have a choice.
"Mr. Kensington, it's a pleasure that you're here. A man with grey hair approached Uncle Steven and shook his hands, then welcomed all of us Uncle Seven called him Mr. Williams. I didn't know who he was "Who is this pretty lady?" he asked, looking at me.
"This is Emily Harolds, Julian's fiancé, Uncle Steven answered. Mr. Williams was surprised upon hearing that. "Wow, you've got yourself a fine lady. Congratulations!" Mr. Williams said.
I felt him wrap his arm around my waist and I tensed as I wasn't used to his touch. "A very line and gorgeous lady indeed." He kissed my cheek and I managed to draw a small smile on my lips.
