Chapter 40 (1/2)

After Miss Eliza left, Mr. Gorman also went out, and he would not tell them where he went.

Anna stood back where she had been.

Mr. prokhov picked up his things and began to do things as usual. I can see he's in a good mood.

Anna increasingly felt a connection between Mr. prokhov and Mr. Gorman. For example, Mr. prokhov just said that, but Mr. Gorman seems to fully understand that there is no need for the latter to explain more. Or perhaps, Mr. prokhov believed Mr. Gorman from the bottom of his heart, which was really moving.

However, Anna is also a little bit unable to restrain her curiosity.

She asked, ”Mr. prokhov, may I have a question for you?”

”Of course, Pasha.” Said Mr. prokhov, smiling, taking a nickname for Anna.

Anna ignored the nickname and directly asked, ”I think you and Mr. Gorman have a really good relationship.” She said in a subtle way.

”Not so good.” Mr. prokhov scratched his hair. ”But I know he is a good man. It may not be that easy to get along with, but believe me, Pasha, he's really a good man

Anna felt that prokhov had misunderstood him. She didn't ask for her own sake. However, Anna looked at each other again, and finally decided to swallow those words back.

When she was about to leave work, Anna arranged some things in the shop and found a handbag.

”It seems to be Miss Eliza's Anna showed prokhov something.

”It must be sent to her. Miss Eliza is a big customer for us Prokhov frowned and said that he still had something on hand and had to check today's accounts.

”I'll go.” Anna noticed prokhov's worries, so she told herself.

”Thank you very much. You can go straight home later. I'll talk to Mr. Gorman when he comes back.”

”OK.”

Anna picked up the coat, because it was too conspicuous to hold such a beautiful handbag as she was now, so she wrapped it with a piece of cloth.

Prokhov and Anna said the address.

According to her address, she crossed three blocks. It's not very far away. After all, as Miss Eliza is, she will naturally choose the downtown area.

Anna rang the doorbell. The guard was a thin man, not tall and powerful.

Anna didn't like this kind of person the least, so she said directly and succinctly, ”I'm here to deliver the bag Miss Eliza left in our store.”

She gave the name of Mr. Gorman's tailor's shop.

The guard instantly changed a kind of expression.

When he opened the door, he said to Anna flatteringly, ”Hey, young man, please tell me something to Mr. Gorman. I gave you a convenience today. If I go to your place to order clothes, can you give me a little cheaper?”

Anna replied with a fake smile: ”ah, of course, I'll tell Mr. Gorman.”

The guard listened and happily let Anna in.

A housekeeper like woman told Anna to wait on the soft chair in the hall, and then she went up to the second floor to inform Miss Eliza.

Anna looked at the residence of the senior social flower in Petersburg and found that it was very gorgeous, but from those decorations, we can see that the master's character has a very girl's side. Therefore, even if it is very expensive, so that some rustic furnishings, will also make people feel very cute.

About five minutes later, Miss Eliza came down.

She changed to a pink dress because of her narrow shoulders, which only made her look too thin. But she was still a beautiful woman.

”Miss Eliza, you left your handbag in our shop.”

”Thank you very much, because I like your clothes so much that I didn't notice. I was going to have my maid pick it up in your shop Said Miss Eliza in a low voice, with beautiful pear whirlpools on either side of her mouth when she was smiling.

This young lady can even use the honorific title to Anna's status. She is really more polite than the ordinary noble lady. Anna thought.

”You are welcome, Miss Eliza. It's in your hands, and I'll go first. ” Anna was about to get up to leave, but miss Eliza said, ”you are leaving so soon.”

She seemed surprised and Anna was stunned.

Miss Eyre said shyly, ”you haven't had tea yet.”

”You don't have to worry about it...”

”Mr. Grachev, if you don't go for a cup of tea, it will seem that I have neglected you.” Miss Eliza said sweetly, while the housekeeper brought up the tea.

”If you don't eat, it's wasted.” Said Miss Eliza, with a little charm.

Anna now felt that this miss Eliza could become a popular social figure in Petersburg, not just by her face.Anna confirmed this again in the next tea conversation.

Miss Eliza had a good character and a mellow voice. She was very good at echoing her people and was not easily disgusted.

In short, Miss Eliza should be the dream of all men. Whether you are a pauper or a billionaire, you will feel like the king of the world in front of her.

Fortunately, Anna is not a real man, otherwise she would be in the air.
