Chapter 193: Stranger in my bed (1)
"I did not get to see him off," said Selene.
"He was busy speaking to his guest from the court. Isaac, the man who attended your wedding. I’m sure Lord Blackthorn didn’t want to trouble you again. He was at your side all morning until you woke up," Agnes said, trying to cheer up Selene. "You were asleep longer than usual."
"We had a long day yesterday but it was good. I don’t mind that I woke up late since I would love to be more active at night when the maids are at their busiest time. Was Isaac happy with this visit? He is always trying to get away from Xavier," Selene said, curious about how their talk went.
Would Isaac want to work for Xavier?
"He might have been happy since I have not heard of any arguments from the maids. There were fruits delivered this morning. Should I cut you a few?" Agnes asked.
"Not right now. I am thinking of what I can do with some of them. Should I try to bake? Do you think Xavier would like it if I baked for him? He doesn’t care for human food," Selene said, worried about that part.
"I think you could hand Lord Blackthorn a bowl of dirty fruits and he would smile since it is for you," Agnes replied.
Selene laughed at the repeated answer. "Just because he would accept it doesn’t mean my gifts for him should be simple. I should bake again. I started so well."
Agnes wanted Selene to take up the hobby again since she got to eat a lot of dessert when Selene baked. "Is there a special reason why?"
