Chapter 34 Catherine's Promise

Not only did Pannis look unexpectedly frustrated by the failed plan, but even Catherine herself suddenly raised her head and exclaimed, "Grandpa Snape, how come you..."

The Old Marquis leaned weakly against the chair, looked up blankly at the ceiling, and after a long while he sighed and said, "I am a merchant, I never undertake things that are bound to fail. Just like now, I really want to urge you not to go, but what's the point? The character of three generations of your family is too similar, once you decide that something must be done, it's useless for anyone to say anything; you'll do it anyway, no matter what. So why should I bother persuading you."
