“Oh.” Ethan glanced at his documents and gave Caleb a nod without saying much else. He sounded like his regular self—he didn’t seem affected by the news at all. Caleb eyed him speechlessly.

Is that all Mr. Knight is going to say? Mr. Rowland has already gone over to the Wolands to propose marriage to Mrs. Knight, yet Mr. Knight is acting as if everything is normal. Is it normal for Mr. Knight to act like this?

“What did you just say?” As questions popped into Caleb’s mind, Ethan questioned Caleb once more. This time, he sounded rather different. He was no longer as calm as before—the peace in the air was replaced by a bone-chilling aura. “The Rowlands have gone over to the Woland Residence to propose a marriage,” Caleb repeated himself.

Just the sound of Ethan’s breath was enough to make Caleb’s legs tremble with fear. Caleb knew that whatever was about to happen would

Alice arrived at Woland Residence only to have Amelia greet her with ‘warmth’. “Alice, you’re finally back! It’s good to have you back. We can’t have Old Mr. Rowland waiting forever.
