Chapter 134: Awaited confession (1)
"Welcome home, Milady. Shall I take your things?" Agnes asked as she walked out the front door to greet Selene.
Selene held the boxes tighter. "No. I will take these in myself. Is Xavier home?"
"I have not seen him or heard the servants speak of his return. Do you need me to send someone for him?" Agnes asked.
"No. It is good that he is not here yet. Come with me," Selene said, leading the way to her room.
Agnes glanced at Lucas before following Selene. What had the lady in such a rush? What was in the boxes she carried?
"I do not understand why we are rushing. Should he not see that you have bought many things?" Agnes asked, but it couldn’t be that. She had witnessed Xavier wanting to spoil Selene. "Lord Blackthorn would be delighted to see you have enjoyed yourself."
"I didn’t buy any of this. They were all gifts from Francesca," Selene replied.
Hearing this puzzled Agnes even more since there wasn’t a need to hide gifts from a friend. It made her curious about what was inside the box.
As they walked to the room, Selene wondered if it was a good idea to hide it in the very room Xavier would be in. There was another room she used when she wanted to be alone. It would be better to take what Francesca gave her there so they wouldn’t be troubled.
