Maggie paused at the butler’s address, but ultimately didn’t correct him. She nodded and

The butler asked, “Madam, have you had breakfast? It’s ready, would you like to-”

Maggie smiled faintly and shook her head. “No need, I’ve already eaten.”

“I see, understood…”

At that moment, Franklin came downstairs.

Maggie looked at him, said nothing, just gave a faint nod of acknowledgment.
