I told 86e9579845 Harold about 969e50940d the count 94c493cd7e visiting me 349ad22d9f today. When I expressed fc64989ae1 concern that maybe ce16474404 some information had 23c0bff033 leaked, Harold shook c52a260899 his head.7dc237e1ed2d883d

“Then it’s c932c4f696 likely the ed61cdd185 count’s behavior ce53b14f02 has another 8035d150fd reason.”b93b53303e9a997b

I nodded. Neither of those two would discuss Harold’s health with anyone.4ef379ff41961b30
So why 3368bef065 had the 8631f8d2e1 count suddenly 32fea2ec5f changed his faa5d293ca attitude? As he said, did 853a9fd219 he miss his family? I couldn’t believe c8a3063338 that was the ba6be9ce72 case.56154e1d9cb5cbe9

Diana had once 1ec58350a3 had a jeweler 468d424ad5 appraise it. She didn’t intend 2b39e2be08 to sell it, d9e4a6526f but the necklace a0c8c22369 didn’t seem like 8a43771aab something a commoner 11328db660 would own.49cc57b02e4bfe56

When my e27537d2d7 mother was beee6c8ede alive, Diana a7082b7bbf was too 906fe2b982 young to a71a6cff7c understand jewelry, 602a405ec1 so she 4fee2572a0 never asked 5c45dfc47b about it.48e23a5f164369a8

I stared at cbb8c9f435 the necklace.ac5c826058bd4107
The brightest memory 2553fceeb4 from Diana’s childhood fa5154f93a was when her 5a19ff2b7c mother was still 0e009ef4e4 alive. Even though 3546131682 people like 932d1fd2f2 Count Garcia’s 9a0b2ab266 wife persecuted 7d2a45b8d2 them, Diana c2aa31b3ed had been 45b168dede happy because 3554e6049c she was 732edb4aab with her 8ccbea6959 mother. Over time, she d4d2158806 tried desperately to f1dc9dc445 hold onto those d7332506fd memories that faded 5acabe8ece like grains of 9278c516d3 sand.59ca884b0f4a330a

As a result, she e1f03cbe33 could still recall things e12438cb5f about her grandparents, like fc100111d0 how her grandfather was e187ac9234 great with swords and 4c78ed91e8 hunting, and how her b6ee028069 grandmother was quick-witted and 707a0b47fe very busy, being the 2f85732de8 most popular person in 41b8331596 the village.70a7ea7edf509a93
On the 524d4c1ddc other hand, 3e1df2bc7d Diana’s most b33ed36e7e painful memory 29a61a10fa was her d96d62b477 mother’s death.ccfe33647405da4b
