Daphne’s eyes widened. “Oh!” she said, finally looking at Adelaide.

“Gamma Adelaide, you’re an inspiration to all of us women! I wish I could be like you… Ah, never mind. It’s too much work. I’d rather just eat, drink, and have fun. It’s much more comfortable.”

Adelaide laughed at her honesty.

Aldrich waved a hand in mock annoyance, but a smile was on his face.

After a few jokes, Daphne got serious. “My father sent me here. He said since Aldrich lives alone and his children aren’t around, if I could get him to like me, he’d listen to whatever I said.”
