Chapter 282.2
Flora had her last lucid dream two months ago. Normally, as her lucid dream recurred following a cyclical pattern of once every two months, it was now a high time for her to have another one. However, she was experiencing an unprecedented delay in her dream cycle despite more than two months having passed since the day she last dreamed.
The average cycle of her recurring dream is supposedly two months long. However, the cycle sometimes ranged in length as there were times where she would have her lucid dream a little ahead or after the normal two months period. But after having noticed some subtle changes in her last lucid dream, Flora couldn’t help but to grow restless when the due date had passed. In fact, she was having a hard time going about her days lately as all she could think about was the lucid dream.
“Have you all heard that a banquet is to be held in the Arse manor?”
“I wonder if it’s true as I’ve only heard it second hand.”
“No surprise, since people tend to exaggerate even the tiniest rumors concerning the Arse family.”
“Best way to get clarification would be to hear it first hand. Perhaps from Anika Jin, herself.”
The ladies, who have been exchanging words with each other, glanced at Flora askance all together. Flora couldn’t help but to feel aggravated as even with her attention diverted, her ears seemed to respond sensitively to the name ‘Anika Jin’. In fact, it almost felt like the efforts she’s put in to free herself from the name for the last three years were coming to naught at once.
“The rumor is true indeed.”
Flora hasn’t told anyone that she had already met with Jin in her last visit to the Arse manor as the last thing she wanted was to help spread the word about the banquet through her own mouth. But now that the words have already gotten all out, there was no point in her to keep quiet any longer. As a matter of fact, it would be a wiser move to flaunt her dominance of the information instead.
