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

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

"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.
