Chapter 188: An angry mother
Things were rather peaceful without Cedric. At least Abrielle didn’t have to move on eggshells with him gone. She has been busy these days managing the household during the winter.
The job was more tasking than she had imagined. Cedric owned a couple of businesses that were profitable if Eleanor was not being a pain in the ass.
Abrielle did her best to stay positive, carrying her task and avoiding every invitation to the castle with the excuse she was recovering due to her miscarriage health issues
The miscarriage ended up being more advantageous than she had imagined it to be. It helped her get out of a lot of sticky situations.
That aside, she had also been improving her spells. It turned out Zoltana was able to get a book, more like steal a book about Heliosian magic from the temple that detailed some training spells which she had been using to teach the princess, and they have been making steady progress.
There was a light knock on the door, drawing Abrielle’s attention from the paperwork she was handling. It was regarding some fabrics she had ordered to improve the clothing store’s collection.
"The door is open," she answered, dropping the quill pen in the ink bottle while her attention was drawn to the door. The door was pushed open and Jubilee stepped in.
"Good afternoon, your Highness; I am sorry to interrupt, but there is a letter from Vesper," Jubilee informed Abrielle. The princess’s eyes immediately sparkled thinking it was a letter from Cedric. But it was a bit early. Did he rush the trip to arrive at Vesper?
Abrielle was confused, it would take at least a month for Cedric to arrive at Vesper and his letter back to her. Regardless, she still accepted the letter, and Jubilee stood by her side.
