Sitting in the chair, Lysander watched Elara go upstairs.

Lysander said calmly, "Not a bad thing. Without work, she will feel bored since I am away."

Elara went upstairs, turned on her computer, and sat down. Most of the time, she worked in the small study attached to the master bedroom while Lysander was in the large one outside the room. Elara began to read the news online...
