"Theodore, you tell me to watch over things and that some important guest is coming, but I don't even know if that guest is a man or woman. Shouldn't you at least give me some information about them?

Lucy had a point, but Theodore seemed evasive and uninterested in the matter like he was only here because Juliana asked him to.

Vintage cars were only owned by certain members of the royal family in Charleston because of their historical value, making them a rarity among the people.

It seemed like the guest was a well-known figure in Charleston. Lucy felt her palms get clammy all of a sudden as it was her first time receiving such an important guest.
