She watched as the princess hummed and she had hoped for a moment that she would fall for her excuse and that she would be able to see her own reasoning for what she had done.
However the princess only chuckled as she shook her head at her in response.
"I know that isn't true. So how about you try again and maybe this time you can make more of an effort by trying to tell me the truth." The princess said to her and she couldn't help but let out a sigh form her lips as she slouched her shoulders and lowered her head slightly at her words.
"look I know that it would be nice for me to try to entertain some of the suitors but truly that isn't what I want. I don't want any of that attention. I have one job and that is for me to stay in servitude to you until you no longer need me. I can't allow my interests to waver." she said to her.
The princess was touched by her words and sentiment. But she couldn't help but feel bad for her.
She had been suspicious of the fact and she had thought that the reason that she was doing everything was because of her and now she was serving to confirm that for her.
She didn't want her to feel as though she was indebted to her. she wanted her to be able to live her own life and be able to go through her own experienced and she knew for a fact that this wasn't fare on any of them.
"I know that you want to please me and that you want to do anything that you can in order for you to ensure that I am happy. But I can't be happy until you are happy and that means that want you to meet someone. someone that will sweep you off your feet and that will make you happy effortlessly. I don't want you to have to settle for less because of me." She said to her firmly.
She watched as something flickered within her gaze before she let out. A sigh and she nodded her head at her slowly.
"I know that you want the best for me and that is why I am so determined to serve you because I want to do anything and everything that I can in order to please you." She said to her eagerly as she plastered a smile on her face.
Brittany nodded her head at her in response before letting out a sigh from her lips. She looked the fact that she wanted her to be happy and that she was interested in her own happiness. "And that is why I am telling you this. I want you to be happy. I know that there are some of the suitors that don't mean you well and are only trying to use you but that isn't the case for all of them. Some of them come with odd intentions and they do in fact want to court you. But you turning them down is not good. You are known for your good heart and that isn't seeming to be the case at the moment. The best way for you to make me happy is by you allowing yourself to also experience some form of happiness of your own." She said to her.
Brittany nodded her head at her in response before letting out a sigh from her lips. She looked the fact that she wanted her to be happy and that she was interested in her own happiness. And that was one of the things that made her love the princess even more.
It was the fact that she was so selfless and it was one of the reasons that she didn't feel anything when it came to her laying her life down and allowing herself to be in full servitude to the princess.
She knew that no matter what she would do for the princess it would be nothing compared to what the princess had done for her and that was why she was intent on continuing to serve her no matter what.
She had grown up as a maid and she was used to being treated as a servant. freew ebnov el
It had been engrained in her that she was supposed to serve her master and never ask questions. Her own feelings as well as her opinions would always come first and so to hear princess carol say that she wanted to know how she felt and that she was interested in her own perspective of things was something that was new to her.
It wasn't like a switch in her mind that she would be able to turn on and off on a whim and it would take some time for her to get used I to it.
"I am sorry princess. I didn't think about it that way. But you know this is what I have been taught and it will take some time for me to get used to not having everything controlled for me." she said to her honestly.
She watched as the princess looked towards her with a pointed look on her face as though she was expecting for her to say something more.
"And because of what it is doing to you and to the men I will do my best to accept some of the gifts more." She said to her after a moment and she watched ads her face turned into a smile after a moment.
She let out a. sigh of relief from her lips as she realized that the princess had no longer looked towards her with anger.
The last thing that she needed or wanted was for her to make her upset.
She wasn't used to being able to control her own life and to make decisions for herself that didn't directly impact the person that she was serving.
She was only supposed to care about her master and she only made decisions on orders that she was given.
It would take her some time fort her to get used to everything but since the princess had insisted on her doing so she knew that she would have to try. Even if she wasn't going to do it for herself she knew that she would have to do it for her.
"Look I don't want to force you into doing something that you don't want to but I am only trying to do what is best for you. I know that you are a loyal servant but you have allowed your loyalty to cloud you and you don't think about yourself. You only think about me and I don't like that. I don't want you to have to live for me. I want you to do it because you want to and it is something that you are interested in not because you want to make me happy." She said to Brittany honestly. She sighed nodding her head at her in response.
She would agree to her words now but she knew that it would take a lot more than that for her to come around.
It may have seemed simple enough to the princess but for her it was much harder than that and it was hard for her to break free of the rules that had been engrained into her from a young age.
Brittany didn't answer the princess after that and she only gave her a smile and a head nod. The princess let out a sigh as she turned to look away from her.
Although she had tried her best in order to show her that it wase okay she knew that it would take much more than that for her to be able to suede Brittany on the matter.
It was then that she realized just how bad things were for the people.
Although Zach had preached about equality and the fact that workers were to be treated as equals and that they were not to be treated like slaves something like that was harder to implement.
There were a few of the Smiths that were yet to treat the servants as equals and for the servants they found it strange or they found it uncomfortable for them to be treated as equals to the people that they worked for. fre(e)webno(v)el
Some of them thought that it was a trick and they tried to revert to the old ways but Zach was adamant.
However Zach could only give out orders and he couldn't inertly change the workings of the brains of the people around. however he could try.
But despite that fact and everything else that was going on things were going to be much harder for him and he would have to work harder in order for him to ensure that the people felt content and safe with him.
It wasn't an overnight thing for people to break free of the bonds that had been placed on them for such a long time and carol knew that too,.
She knew that Brittany wouldn't give into her word immediately but she was content in the knowledge that she would find reason to listen to her soon enough.
It was just about her finding a way for her to convince her sop.
Most of the servants were yet to get accustomed to the new workings pf things and they were still trying to figure their way around it.
Although they were loyal to Zach and they knew that he was a good person and that whatever he was doing was what was best for them but they were still trying to wrap their heads around everything.
Carol however could see clearly how everything was panning out and she was instructed to do Zach's favor.
