Are you having an affair with my lady-in-waiting?

Aries didn't probe anymore about how Curtis recovered overnight. It was strange, but she gave him the benefit of the doubt that it was because his will to recover brought his voice back. It was a lame excuse, but Curtis had been trying to call her name with great difficulty.

Moreover, she didn't have the time to investigate or interrogate him since she couldn't delay the build-up she created last night. The plan must go on and Aries needed to be there since she was the one who was holding the steer. 

So, after several minutes, Gertrude arrived in Curtis' room to fetch Aries and prepare her for the day. Abel had already told her about how Gertrude stood up to Joaquin last night, forbidding him from entering the room. 

"Thank you, Gertrude." Aries smiled subtly as Gertrude brush her hair while the crown princess was sitting on the stool in front of the vanity mirror. "Abel told me what you did last night. It must've scared you."
