Chapter 137: LIKABLE ARISTIA
"Goodbye, great grandma and great grandpa. Goodbye, grand-aunt Rulia and grand-uncle Carter. Goodbye uncle Ross and aunt Vasily." Aristia waved goodbye.
Aristia and her family and the Antons were returning to the capital and were bidding goodbye to the family.
Ross and Vasily lived in the capital but would stay for some more days with Ross’s parents so it was only Aristia’s family and the Antons that were making the journey back to the capital.
"Goodbye. Have a safe journey, all of you." They replied as the carriages departed.
The carriage rocked gently as it rolled along the snow-dusted road, carrying Aristia, Lauren, Liam, Alaric and Lilith. The children were all in one carriage with a personal maid, Adeline. Adeline occasionally glanced out the window to ensure everything was in order.
The adults were in another carriage and there were three carriages carrying the servants they had brought along and luggages.
"I’ll miss the North," Lauren said wistfully, her gaze fixed on the passing wintry landscape across Aristia beside her who was sitting beside the window. "It was so much fun here."
Aristia only nodded in agreement, then leaned on the window with a sigh and continued, "I cannot believe a new month has arrived."
They had entered the month of March. They had stayed in the Hemsworth Fief for the whole of the month of February. She had actually spent one month away from the capital and their mansion.
"Time seems to be flying by." Liam muttered. It felt like it was just yesterday that they arrived at the Hemsworth Fief in the north.
"I’ll miss the snow," Lilith chimed in, "It’s so pretty."
