Oliver
My heart thumped in anger as I made my way to the Viscount’s office.
I was just about to head to bed when I heard Rachel chatting away with her lady’s maid Mrs. Abarca about her supposed engagement. Not only did this confuse me but it also boiled my blood that a man would propose to my sister without consulting me first. I was her older brother for heaven’s sake. I had to be addressed first about his intentions.
But my anger only increased when I heard her say the Viscount’s name.
That man had proposed to my sister without talking to me? Under the same roof I was in? He had passed me and talked to me several times throughout the week and even today at the tea party! I didn’t care if we were in his house.. rules were rules.
When I reached his office I didn’t even bother knockin
