The following day, at the Heath residence.
After Charlotte and Cecelia had an early dinner, Charlotte dragged Cecelia to the dressing room and started to pick out her dress for the evening piano concert.
"Charlotte, thank you. You are so thoughtful. You know I like piano concerts, and booked a private box." Cecelia looked at Charlotte with tender eyes, "Seriously, I didn't even know that Strauss had come to the Capital. He's my favorite pianist."
"Mom, you're usually so busy, so of course you don't pay attention. I didn't arrange these, and a friend of mine did. He wants to see you tonight." Charlotte flashed a smile.
"A friend?" Cecelia asked, puzzled, "What friend?"
After Charlotte came to the Capital, she didn't have many friends, and Cecelia was worried that Charlotte's lack of interaction with the outside world would affect her emotions.
"I just can’t tell you now and you will find out when it’s time." Charlotte said mysteriously.
Cecelia's eyes widened slightly, but did not ask more questions.
"Mom, do you think this looks good on me?" Charlotte asked as she took a lake green gown out of her closet.
"It's too gaudy, and it's too tight at the waist. Charlotte, you're pregnant and you should find something loose to wear," Cecelia suggested.
"Oh." Charlotte looked slightly disappointed.
Loose clothes would not be able to show her figure. And if she could not wear the most beautiful dress, how could she show her noble beauty?
Cecelia found a suit from the cabinet and handed it to Charlotte, "How about you wear this one? The material is particularly comfortable."
"All right." Charlotte took the clothes in disgust.
It's a bit sad that she could not dress up, but getting things done was more important.
