Chapter 439: A day of surprises (1)
After a chaotic night with the knights passing through the house to collect their dinner, a new day came over the border.
Annalise, Heidi, Siena, and Giselle woke up early to get dressed for a day of walking around while Rafael got up early to find where he would take Annalise tonight.
Unfortunately, Phillip had wanted to speak to Rafael about nothing after dinner and kept him busy so Rafael was unable to meet with Annalise later in the night. It gave him a little more time to plan how he was going to propose to her.
"Where are you going to do it?" Rafael heard Phillip’s voice from behind him.
At first, Rafael liked that Phillip was a little bit more welcoming of him this time around, but now it was starting to feel like he was being stalked. If Annalise wasn’t around, Phillip wouldn’t leave him alone.
"I do not know yet," Rafael replied, turning around to face Phillip.
"What do you mean you don’t know? You had a long night to think about it. Do you need to use my house since you don’t have one?" Phillip asked.
Rafael didn’t miss the jab Phillip threw in there. How was he to have a house at the border for him and Annalise when this was his second time here? He doubted that if he asked to buy any of the empty homes here, Phillip would let him.
"The new manor will be going up soon. She won’t be without a roof over her head for long," Rafael replied, turning away from Phillip and hoping the man would disappear.
