Chapter 143

 The next day, Rose travelled in a carriage with Anna, Zayne, and Anna's maid. The first few hours of her day were occupied with the dressmaker showing her fine dresses and then eating snacks brought by the butler.

Rose looked out the carriage window, taking in the sight of the lands around them. It was quiet here compared to where she had travelled before since it was all Victor's land and many weren't welcome to travel across it without permission.

"It is too hot," Anna muttered, fanning herself. She regretted the decision to come along for the family ride. "Father should tend to his business another day. The aunts will not leave."

"What are they like?" Rose asked.
