My Present
Adeline insisted on changing herself. She would be absolutely mortified if the maids found her lack of underwear was the reason why she needed a new outfit. Afterward changing faster than the speed of light, she practically rushed down the hallways, startling passing servants.
Elias was nowhere to be found, but she didn't mind. Her thoughts were occupied by Lydia Claymore and the joy of seeing her friend almost everyday. In the Marden Estate, Adeline was solely forbidden to see Lydia Claymore.
"Liddy!" Adeline gushed the second the guards opened the door for her.
Lydia Claymore was pacing in circles, nibbling at her nails, when she heard the ecstatic call of her friend. Her heart was heavy with even more guilt. Adeline looked happier than a child on Christmas morning, ready to open presents. Her eyes were glued upon Adeline's bright smile and the shimmer of her gaze.
