the Surton’s residence.
Maggie asked Reynald to stay for lunch, and he didn’t refuse. She went to the kitchen to cook, seemingly intentionally leaving the living room space for the two of them, and occasionally paying attention to the sounds coming from the living room.
Reynald took a sip of tea and noticed Charlotte’s absent–mindedness. He smiled and said, “Don’t worry, if they come looking for trouble with you and your alum again, you can always come to me
She came to her senses, But this is too much trouble for you.”
Why would it be troublesome, Reynald set down the teacup, Your matters are never considered troublesome.”
Charlotte fel a bit uncomfortable.
