Chapter 11: Let the face slapping begin.
When Sigrid looked at her maids, they appeared to be worried. Lama looked like she was ready to faint from the great horror of Oliver Ye visiting the manor.
Obviously, this had something to do with her reputation, after all, an ex-fiance visiting before her wedding would get the tongues of their society wagging.
"My lady, you must not be alone with him." Lama said.
Lanai nodded, "Do not even smile in his direction lest a scandal shall follow."
Scandal! is anything on Eldoria really scandal free for women? Sigrid asked herself.
If you are unmarried and smile at a man in a way that appears intimate: scandal.
If you hold hands with a man in public without a chaperone or good reason: scandal.
If you talk to a man for more than an hour without a chaperone: scandal.
If you walk with a man in the absence of a chaperone: scandal.
If you dare to pick up a sword as a woman: scandal and prison!!!
"Oh for heavens sake!" Sigrid exclaimed and rolled her eyes.
