Chapter 129
Fortunately, not long after my motion sickness kicked in, we arrived at the estate in the capital.
I used the nausea as an excuse to skip dinner. If I tried to force anything into my stomach, I felt like I would throw it up on the spot.
I headed straight to my room and collapsed onto the bed. Jane followed me in and began unpacking my things into the wardrobe.
“My lady, please change your clothes before you sleep.”
“Mm, Jane... you did well. Go ahead and rest.”
“Yes, my lady. Have a good night.”
With a quiet word of thanks to Jane, who had worked even while traveling, I pulled the blanket all the way up to my chin.
The only sound in the quiet room was my own breathing.
As I lay there, listening to it and nothing else, someone suddenly knocked on the door.
Who could it be? My brother? Mother? Or... maybe Ian? Did someone hear I wasn’t feeling well?
“Come in.”
Whoever it was, there was no reason to turn them away.
