NovelEnglishChapter 192 Clenching her teeth, Carissa said to Lilly, "Starting tonight, I want you to teachembroidery. I need to make a perfect handkerchief." Mistakes made in youth must be corrected.
Carissa could accept her own imperfections, but she could not accept that she had handed out subpar work to everyone.

There was a fleeting thought that she couldn't quite grasp. Did Rafael have a fondness for unattractive things? What peculiar taste he had! As the two senior maids organized the storeroom, Frederick took the opportunity to tell Carissa that Jason had sorted out the account books and wanted her to review triem. *Alright, leave them in the study. I look them over tonight," Carissa said Frederick nodded. 'The accounts for the farms and shops have also been organized. Jason has summarized the totals and provided detailed breakdowns. I glanced through them and found them to be well done. The people Mr. Sinclair hired are indeed reliable." The accountant had been recommended by Solomon, and since the Sinclair family did well in business, Solomon's recommendation was trustworthy.
Lulu, Pearl, and the others were arranging outfits for Carissa. With so many people expected at tomorrow's event, Carissa needed to stand out.
Just then, Luke arrived to ask if Carissa would be attending Eleanor's birthday banquet the next day, so she went out to personally respond.
"Please inform His Highness that I will be attending." Luke nodded. "Understood, my lady." Knowing Rafael had sent Luke over to gauge her intentions, Carissa added, "Tell His Highness that if he doesn't wish to attend, he needn't worry about it. I can handle things on my own." Luke chuckled. "My lady, you misunderstood. The reason His Highness sentto ask was to inquire about what gift you'll be bringing if you attend." Carissa looked at the plump, kindly steward and replied, "A painting- one painted by my senior, Kyle Spencer." "Oh!" Luke's voice was filled with a mix of emotions, tinged with regret. "Then... I see..." Kyle's paintings were rare and valuable. To give one to someone like Eleanor, who was known for her pretentious taste, seemed like such a waste. Luke was visibly distressed by the thought of such a precious artwork being squandered.
Carissa noticed his pained expression and smiled. "My senior's works include both his proud masterpieces and she casually discarded. I'm a bit of a hoarder, so I've collected both his treasures and his cast-offs. If you'd like, I can give you one of his masterpieces.
Luke's expression brightened instantly, and he waved his hands vigorously. "No! I wouldn't dare take a masterpiece. I'd be very grateful for one of the cast-offs you mentioned, though. I promise to treasure it." "Very well," Carissa agreed without hesitation.

Back in the estate, Lulu had selected se ral outfits, but they were all quite plain. Due to her period of mourning, Garissa rarely wore bright colors. The pink outfit she had worn previously was the only exception. It was the only relatively vibrant outfit she had worn recently.
Lulu was worried. How could such plain attire possibly showcase m Carissa's stunning beauty to its fullest? "Perhaps the moonlight white blouse and pleated skirt will do," Carissa suggested.
The sheer pink outfit would remain unworn. It was a keepsake her m her ing mother had made for her wedding, tucked away and never worn at Valor Estate. For Eleanor's birthday banquet, something plain and simple would suffice.
