Bab 54: #54-They Are Allowed To Marry!

When Sarah told Penelope that Edmund was waiting in a small alley close to the Askary mansion, the woman immediately smiled broadly and hurriedly asked Sarah to accompany her to that place.

Because Penelope was sure that her father and big brother would interrogate her, Penelope decided to ask her mother for permission. The woman seemed to agree that she and Edmund would marry. Her mother also promised to talk to her father again so that the man would also give his permission to marry Edmund.

"Mother?"

Duchess Askary, who was drinking tea and eating sweets in the sideyard, turned her head. The woman smiled and waved her hand, telling Penelope to come closer.

"Am I bothering you, Mother?" Penelope asked cautiously. She smiled and bent down to kiss Duchess Askary on both cheeks.
