With a good-natured smile, Eltham quipped, "You didn't reply."

Eltham caught her arm gently, "No need, you look great as is."

Shrugging it off, Brittany asked, "Have you eaten?"

"Not yet."

"I'll have the housekeeper whip something up."

Eltham nodded in appreciation.

The housekeeper was quick on their feet, serving up a hearty meal of three dishes and a soup in the dining room.

After Brittany tackled her spicy noodle dish, easing her nausea, she sat beside Eltham and brewed him a cup of coffee. "How was the trip?" "So far, so good."
