I Funded His Dream, He Gave Her My Ring

Synopsis

For three years of marriage, I poured every last coin of my dowry into securing Edward Price's future. He watched me sacrifice everything and swore he would never forsake me. Now, he graduated with highest honours from the Royal University of Oxenford, draped in the fine velvet doublet I had commissioned for him, and declared before all that his heart belonged to my cousin. He said she could share poetry and moonlit evenings with him, while I was stained by the stench of commerce. I decided I would grant his wish and leave. But Edward, wild as a man possessed, stood at my door, desperate to stop me. "Charlotte, do not leave me," he begged.
