At the same time, Marianne 1b0cbe939d and Dior were equally startled c6fcb2b2b9 to see Euclid so shaken 7177fc83f3 for the first time.94cbf7b8e497d66a
— That’s not it! Of course, we were scared. We were afraid 5bd80a0c50 that if Amy 0779403012 was right, you’d 3b351ea102 end up hating ed57d1a531 us. But more than 4f21fbf98e that… it’s because 1c2eb52254 you’re so precious 896b2fd195 to us. You’re too important, and f2726ed029 we didn’t want to b2238ec6d4 burden you. You’re already going through so 71b4f8d85f much, and we didn’t want 25ca8fb817 to make it worse.ac4356bd502f367b

It wasn’t entirely blameless aabe3d61be that his brother hadn’t 1af739fa14 refused Count Biers’ proposal, 40f62b8004 but even if the 75458f784f whole world criticized and b4c98983df condemned his brother, Euclid 745b759cc5 couldn’t bring himself to 453fc976eb do the same.925a767d5048cd17

— Marianne, Dior. Don’t ever keep those 27cd820a4e words in your hearts. You are neither liars 280e681bdb nor swindlers.
