The Man's Decree

Hugging the girl, Winona asked, “How have you been, Heidi?”

“I’ve been quite well, Aunt Winona. If it weren’t for my father telling me about your return, I wouldn’t even have known you were back. He’s truly a scoundrel. How could he have arranged for you to stay in such a place? I must confront him about this later!” Heidi huffed after taking a glance at the surroundings.

“Your father had his reasons. Besides, hadn’t he already asked you to arrange some other place for me?” Winona coaxed.

“That’s true. I’ve kept your courtyard house just as it was and have been sending someone to clean it. I’ll take you there right now, Aunt Winona!” Heidi said, nodding in affirmation.

“Hold on. I still have a few friends. Bring them along, too!”

After Winona had said that, she called Catina and Feenix out. Following that, Jared and Viola also stepped out of their room.

Seeing such a crowd, Heidi appeared somewhat shy.

“Ms. Flowers, this is my niece, Heidi Zeever,” Winona said to Catina, making the introductions.

Then, Winona turned to Heidi and explained, “Heidi, I’d been living in Imperial Fox City all these years, and it was all thanks to Ms. Flowers for taking me in.”

“I’m Heidi Zeever. Thank you for taking my aunt in,” Heidi said to Catina politely.
