Predestined Marriage

Jessica glanced at them up and down quietly, as if she was watching a play.

Molly was young. Since she was Carl's cousin, her peers, both boys and girls, honored her. Therefore, she had many friends.

Her friends were well-off and they had grown up in upper class. Weighing the pros and cons and calculating the gain were two required courses for them. But they were always irritable because they were young with little experience.

Christopher was different from those irritable boys. He was reserved, calm, and tolerant, as if everything was under his control.

He had the charm of a mature man precipitated from time, which was different from boys at Molly’s age.

Gentleness and shrewdness, two contradictory characteristics, were displayed by Christopher in a very harmonious manner.

Molly didn't like Christopher because he had chased after Jessica's clout. But she didn't hate him.
