Charlotte Bronte Novels & Stories

I joked making Bronte giggle. " Yeah, it will be super awkward. Now, come on and follow me to Charlotte's room. She has got this journal in her closet full of her fantasies, her dream wedding and everything. I think you should look into it and surprise her by making all those come true." Bronte suggests " So, are you up for it?" " For Charlotte and making her happy I am up for anything." I replied hwen Asheron's phone rang on the table flashing Charlotte's name."

… yes… .... Of course.... She knows him.... .... Perfect! I pack my briefcase with the files and notes I'm going to need for my meeting, slot in my laptop, then making sure Charlotte's occupied elsewhere, place a folder on my desk. I'm ready to go. Charlotte is settled onto the rug by the fire, coffee in hand and reading. Taking a moment for myself, I watch her.... Intent on her reading, her flaming hair spills over a light summery dress, contrasting against her porcelain skin. Lips parted a little to sip her drink, she's clearly lost in a good book.

I swallow the witch's brew and wait for him to continue. He downs half a cup in two swallows. "Charlotte is hard-working, concentrates on her education, uses all the gifts nature has given her to the best of her ability. She is.... terrifyingly courageous.... and as for money...." He swings his head and polishes off the cup, then stoops to refill. ".... it's of no interest to her at all, beyond the basic means to live. Getting her to spend on clothes or jewellery or the other trinkets most women want is pointless. Give her a library and a quiet spot and she's in heaven."
