The Rocky Gorge Incident (3)

Sometime later in the evening...

Nina and Eve were at the Staples estate, where Shelby had brought them moments ago after arriving at the Fuller family home.

Nina had found it strange when her teacher had shown up on her doorstep earlier that evening. But after hearing from Eve that Vice would be busy for the night and that he had authorized her to come to her teacher's house, she had easily accepted the situation.

As smart as she was, Nina was still a child. She was naturally happy when she had the opportunity to spend the night with one of the people she loved most outside of her family.

After arriving at the estate earlier, she had played with her teacher and then had dinner.

Now, she was looking at Shelby's library while Eve and the local noblewoman sat around a table in the study area of her residence.

They watched Nina flip through the books while drinking tea and talking in low voices, even though Nina was deaf.
