Chapter 45 Sudden Changes

• I was calm and composed. I had been given such a boost of confidence in the morning that meeting with relatives turned out to be a piece of cake, even despite the unpleasant conversation with my stepfather last night. Now I can breathe easier, knowing that Konstantin is on my side.
• I arrived at my parents' house a little early to talk to my sister and convince her to reconsider the upcoming marriage. If she decides to marry a man who is using her as a business deal " of course, I will support her, but at the same time, I will do everything possible from my side to ensure my sister's happiness."
• As it has always been our custom, I invaded the girl's territory without knocking or warning, catching her off guard. Our parents were not home, so I decided to take advantage of this great opportunity.
