Chapter 353

The first light of dawn appeared on the horizon.

With the return visit on her mind, Nyx woke up earlier than usual, groggily sitting on the edge of the bed while her mid helped her wash up and freshen her face.

"Why don't you sleep a little longer?" Erik asked, seeing how tired she looked. He felt a pang of pity in his heart and couldn't resist reaching out to gently stroke her temple

Nyx caught his hand and leaned into his embrace. "Well, I'm already awake. If I sleep more, it won't be reuful. Better to go early and return carly"

When there was something she didn't want to do but had to, it was better to get it done and over with early, so weigh on her mind and affect her mood.

The maids exchanged knowing glances as they watched the affectionate exchange between the master and mistress, silently chuckling to themselves.

They thought, Ever since the lady of the house arrived, the young master seems to have softened, even giving us all extra rewards and telling us to take good care of the mistress,'

"When the master becomes easier to get along with and there is more money to be had, who wouldn't be happy?

The servants were grateful for the benefits Nyx had brought them. Each one was more attentive than the last, their words sweet as they praised her.

After all, when they praised Nyx, Erik was pleased.

Though Erik never said much, the steady stream of rewards revealed his true feelings.

After washing up and having breakfast, several servants brought in seven or eight new sets of fine clothing and displayed them for Nyx to choose from.

Nyx selected a simple, understated set. With the maids' help, she changed into it and looked in the mirror, feeling it fit her perfectly.

She turned to Erik, opening her arms and asking for his opinion. "What do you think?"

Though the outfit was simple in color, the fabric was exquisite, and the embroidery had clearly been done with great care. Even someone who didn't know much about fashion could tell it was of exceptional quality.

"Looks like I'll have to maintain my figure and not get fat," Nyx joked, "It would be such a waste if I could only wear this

once."

The other outfits were equally well made, and if she didn't wear them at all, they would no longer fit, which would be a real pity.

Erik had been staring at her absentmindedly, but when he heard her, he snapped back to attention and frowned, countering. "It's just one outfit. What's the big deal?"
