It will be easier for the servants to arrange the place if she is there with them," replied Rolando with ease.
As soon as Lilian's doubts disappeared, Harper walked in and saw them sitting down. "I'm sorry to keep you waiting!" she said
apologetically.
"Aunt, I didn't expect you to sleep as peacefully as you did in a place you haven't been to," Lilian remarked. "Come join us. Let's

Right after that, Rolando picked a piece of cake for Lilian, which flattered her. This was the first time he had ever picked up food for her, and
