Away from the eyes

I tried to keep my composure calm at the mention of Fang. There was this feeling in the corner of my heart and it was somehow confirmed by my to be mother-in-law's words that Fang was the one who had matched this wedding. I could only smile, as my mind was slowly understanding what exactly must have been going through Fang's mind. 

My mother called the maids, "bring the guest's luggage outside the castle. Use the east gate, not the main doors" She turned back to my in-laws and with a smile and explained, "There would be people near the main gates, and you had asked for a rather low exit" 

My eyes shifted between the two older ladies that stood in the room. I did not see the reason for them to leave in a hidden manner if the feast was arranged for them, unless the feast was over and the after-party was all that remained.
