章節 330: Closing wounds- Part 2

When Catherine heard about James visiting her, her joy knew no boundaries. She was ecstatic that he had finally returned to her and all her worries had been swept away. Getting ready and making sure she looked pretty, she walked out of her room to meet James in the parlour room where he was waiting for her. 

"James!" Catherine exclaimed, dropping the honorifics, "I am so glad to see you here! I have been worried!" James stood up, something he was used to doing as a sign of respect which was when Catherine put her hands around him. But he didn't put his hands around Catherine, not making an effort to hug her. 

"I told papa to speak to the King to ask him to clear your name. I knew it wasn't you, and you couldn't have done it!" Catherine had pulled away from James, taking a step back while a hint of blush covered her cheeks, "Forgive me for my forwardness. I wasn't able to contain myself when I saw you."
