Chapter 273.2
Kasser was already coming up the stairs after having alighted from the carriage when Eugene opened the door to the manor’s porch. She felt a sudden rush of tickling sensations on her fingertips when she saw his eyes smile as their eyes met. She stood and watched as he walked over to her side while her hands slightly curled into a fist without her realizing it.
“Was everything alright?”
Eugene gave a nod instead of an answer as hearing his voice somehow made her nose tingle. It was strange how his words instantly turned her into a child who had a bad day, although she seemed just fine when she left the palace and even after seeing her mother’s face.
“How did you know I was here?”
“I just know.” Kasser grinned after giving her a rather vague answer. Eugene smiled back even broader as the mere sight of his face was enough to make her all smiles.
“Something interesting happened while I was at the palace. I’ll tell you later when we get home.” Eugene couldn’t wait to tell him about how she managed to control her Ramita, wholly at her will.
Dana, however, was quick to set forth her proposal as soon as she saw her daughter come back with her husband.
“Will you two stay for a meal today?”
Eugene could feel the silent pressure behind her mother’s smile which she dared not to disobey. She responded with a sheepish smile and told her mother that they would stay for the meal.
