The real Amanda III

Emiliano sees his brother and makes a gesture so that he can ask if he wants to, to which Enrique commented

Enrique: I only have one question Amanda and I want you to be as honest as you have never been in your life -while he paused he asks- Do you think Matthew wants to marry Laura out of pity?

Amanda who was about to answer hears her father repeat the word -be honest- she bites her lips and says

Amanda: Yes, I know it is out of pity... since I know that Orchid told young Matthew about Laura's illness so that he would decide once and for all.

Enrique sees his daughter Orquídea and says to the surprise of those present: it is true that Orquídea told him and I know it too, but what you don't know is that Matthew himself asked her after hearing her and Laureano talk about Laura.

To which Amanda in her defense said that it could be a lie from her, to which he told her that 3 people could not be wrong, since Florence also copied Florence to Lord Matthew and Florence's letter was the last one to reach his hands.

Orchid raised her face a little and looked at her aunt who was nodding her head and Orchid in a whisper said: "thank you aunt".

Enrique decided not to ask any more questions and let his brother make the decision, but the King knew that it was not an easy decision and had to go to consult what measures could be taken, while everyone was waiting Florence approached the King and commented

Florence: If you allow me, Majesty, I can give you an idea.

The councilors wanted to protest but with a slight raise of hand they remained mute while the King said: I am all ears.

Florence who with respect looked at the King and then looked at her "sister and niece" and then saw an Orchid and a devastated Laura together with her brother-in-law all downcast commented

Florence: in my country, France, there is a school exclusively for young ladies, as you well know majesty I know that France has changed many things, but their discipline has been impeccable and more with the young ladies.

As if she expected everyone to ask to know the rest, a counselor of about 63 years old with elegant clothes and looking at her out of the corner of his eye asks

Counselor: What kind of school would Lady Florence be?

This one who omits a slight smile comments: I will explain, this school is almost a boarding school, there they take the girls who have behavioral problems and do not know how to socialize.

As if that was a bucket of cold water for Amanda and Frida, they both commented in unison.

Amanda and Frida: You are crazy!

As if that was the trigger for the real Amanda to make herself known, Emiliano rolls his eyes and the counselors cover their mouths when they hear such vulgarity and decide to meet among themselves and support Lady Florence's idea.

Councilor: Majesty, with all due respect, we support the idea of Lady Florence and if you wish, it can be executed right now.

This one who looks at them firmly says with a tone of order: Amanda you will be taken to the boarding school in France and you will not leave until you are really a lady -while he pauses he looks at Frida and says- and Lady Frida for the little respect I have left I exile her from Spain and England, just like Amanda who will not be able to set foot in England.

The advisors who saw it difficult but not impossible decided to help the King to process the letters so that they would arrive if possible that same day.
