Undressed By the Earl
“Lord Lanfordshire was at his left, and Lady Lanfordshire sat on the other side of her husband. He’d already spoken to the baron, prior to the dinner, and now he intended to see if Margaret was willing to pursue a marriage with him.
He’d rehearsed his speech in his head, and everything sounded reasonable. He had several prosperous estates and a title that any lady would welcome. A daughter, whom Margaret could bring up to be a young lady. And although Miss Andrews had been on the shelf for a... few years, he suspected that she still wanted a titled gentleman for a husband.
Even so, he could almost imagine Katherine warning him: No. This isn’t the right woman for you.
Margaret Andrews might not be the right woman, but he believed she was the best choice. She had the knowledge necessary for Christine, and her demeanor suggested that she would keep a strict eye upon his daughter. Miss Harrow would be inclined to let Christine do as she pleased.MoreLess
