Chương 217: Remember Us Like This

      Ms. Bird and Harris came to help Delaney and Vincent dress for the royal court.  Everyone knew the danger that the nobles were in so no one spoke much.  The old maid's eyes were glistening though as she helped her mistress get dressed, worrying this might be the last time.

      Delaney hadn't bothered to pick what dress she would wear today and had left it up to Ms. Bird and Harris to decide on for the Duke and Duchess.  Because of this, Delaney was pleasantly surprised when she found herself wearing a royal blue gown with a deep neckline.  Vincent was wearing a vest that had a pattern but the same blue was part of.

      Ms. Bird did her hair into an intricate design before generously sprinkling it with diamond-studded hairpins.  She then clasped a diamond-laden choker onto Delaney's elegant neck and stood back to admire her work.
