"That's a gift for you, and it belongs to you now. You can do as you please with it," he replied calmly.

Oriana's instructed the butler to pack the portrait, and she carried it with her to the Verner's mansion, where Philip was said to be seated in the garden. Before seeking him out, she inquired about his well-being.

"How has he been, Ana?" Oriana asked as she made her way towards the garden.

"He is fine. He just finished his afternoon meal and wished to enjoy the sunlight in garden," Ana replied.

"Did he inquire about me?"

"No, Your Highness."
