Stench of peace

Lilian cast her gaze at Prudence. The proposition that Prudence put forth really did the work of showing the girl her place but unfortunately, it had the opposite effect of what Lilian was planning to do.

"Oh no, Lady Prudence," Lilian was quick to stop her, "I'm sure there won't be any problem since you are here with me. His Grace will understand."
