Violet thought she had misheard, but he had already stood and started walking ahead, prompting her to follow quickly. Her room was just a few steps away, hardly requiring any escort.

Lucius opened the door for her when they arrived.

Lucius lingered instead of departing, entering Violet’s room with her. “You seem quite adept at caregiving. Have you done this before?”

Too weary to think clearly, Violet responded with a simple nod, “Yes, for a year.”

“For a man?”

“Yes.”

With that, Lucius abruptly left, slamming the door behind him.

Violet sensed something amiss. Did her admission of caring for a man stir up memories of Agatha’s

disloyalty? Was it necessary for him to throw a tantrum?

By then, Lucius had already gone.

That evening, when she arrived to take over Lucius’s shift, he exited without sparing her a glance.

Violet, touching her neck thoughtfully, refrained from speculating further and focused on caring for Regina, moisturizing the old lady’s lips with cotton to keep them from drying out.

Regina, despite her serious illness, still bore remnants of her past beauty–notably her lips, much like Lucius’s.
