"You mean only the two of us will live in this big house?" Iris asked in disbelief.
"Yes. But don't worry. Some servants and chefs will come in the morning to clean the house and cook for you daily. They live in a cabin in the woods behind the house. You can't see them; a magic barrier seals the house. You might see their cabin if you gain the ability of your divine eyes," Xavier patiently explained.

At times, she couldn't help but wonder if Xavier had some involvement in preventing Lucian from giving her assignments.
