Kapitel 309: Chapter 309

The hours of the party went well as Rose wanted without any more distractions or interruptions. Catherine had picked well since Rose enjoyed the women's company and even Mary who didn't frequently attend such social gatherings seemed to enjoy herself. 

Along with making friends for herself, Rose wanted friends who would get along well with Mary since Rose did not have any plans of ending her friendship. Mary was to be respected as Rose was to be respected. Mary was one of her first friends so Rose would not stop meeting with her all because she didn't fit the kind of friend a lady should have.

Rose stayed by the front door to see the women off one by one. She made plans to send gifts to Margaret and Julia for their children and then to find something to send to Emilia so she wouldn't be left out.
