The maid hurried inside to notify Karen and Adah that Anthea had arrived.

As the door swung open, the maid accompanied Anthea into the grand foyer of the estate. With an air of formality, she announced, "Good day, Dr. Yeager. I'm the Christensen family's butler.

Thus, Pearl treated Anthea with utmost respect, not out of obligation, but genuine reverence.

Before meeting Anthea, Pearl had harbored doubts, wondering if Karen had been fooled.
