Calden Castle.
Lanercoast.
"I don't understand why you told Lady Sera to stay longer at Calden Castle," said Arabelle.
Arabelle walked out from inside the castle, stepping closer to the pavilion where Quentin was alone.
The woman came wearing a beautiful long black dress that somehow now seemed to suit her.
Quentin, sipping a warm green tea, immediately looked back, realizing his wife was walking towards him in a dress that made her beautiful as always.
"Lord Caspian and Lady Grace are off to Castlebourne. Let her stay a few days until they return," Quentin said, siping the green tea.
"Am I to guess that you have a special plan for why Lady Sera stayed here for more than a day?" asked Arabelle, trying to make sure.
Arabelle sat on the pavilion chair, pouring the teapot of warm water into the glass set up on the pavilion table for her. Now, she was fully seated directly before Quentin.
