Chapter 286
*******
I had kept silent in my bedroom.
Sir Vitor had quietly offered his hand to walk me inside. And I could tell he was intending to stay with me inside until Paige came around. But she timely arrived with the awaited tea that was not necessary anymore.
She was confused to see me at my door, but taking advantage of her confusion, I asked her in my notes to leave the tea inside and instead made sure Vitor was alright since... Theressa had acted violently against him.
[ I am sorry, Sir Vitor. For making you experience this. ] — I had written to him in apology for what had happened.
"... Go calmly, Lady Marianne." — It was all he said... Yet I felt grateful somehow at his wording.
In the end, I went inside alone since Paige followed my request. I heard her tell Sir Vitor to let her see his face and, even though they were little scratches and some hits he received, I was really glad that she still went to get things to treat it, as little as it was.
He still wouldn’t move from my door. And I feel guilty from feeling relieved he did so.
The tea was left inside but I simply went to seat on the chair that had stayed placed unlike the table thanks to the Crown Prince and... I think a while passed of us staring blankly in ponder after that.
Kind of going through every little detail of what had occurred so recently at our door like a broken record, I simply seated there dumbfounded. Really not thinking of anything as I revived some sensations we felt during the chaos.
