I finished reading The Scorsolini Marriage Bargain, and it contains an element in it which I always get very frustrated reading about: a couple not understanding each other, not being honest with each other, and getting what they say and do taken out of context by each other almost all the time, and this usually goes on for a long time in most stories. Bummer.
Even though I dislike the frustrations I get from these kind of situations, the ending is always very satisfying. As with this book The Scorsolini Marriage Bargain, I got the prince shedding tears for this wife. This is sooooo satisfying.
Men like Claudio did not cry. Not ever.
Yea right.
Well then, now to the sweetest moment for me: It's the part where King Vincente (poor man in hospital because he just had a heart attack), reminds Therese to call him Papa instead of, well, King Vincente (and I have no idea how to pronounce this name).
And I have to add, in a conversation at the ending (second last line actually), Therese refers to King Vincente as Papa (without reminders from the King). I just find it very signifinant and suitable for this word to be brought up at the end. It feels to me that Therese is now very comfortable (and happy) with her life and had accepted herself with no doubts as being part of the family. And again, a satisfying thought.
Wow, a "Papa" moment made me weep instead of the "I love you" moment. Rare.
