Lyra's face flushed with embarrassment as she apologized, "I'm so sorry for forgetting I'm no longer in the supernatural realm where I could feast on deer." Her tone was laced with regret, and Camilla's kind reassurance only slightly eased her discomfort. "It's okay, Lyra, I'll prepare something else for you. Don't worry about it," Camilla said with a warm smile before exiting the room with a solemn expression.
The atmosphere in the room shifted, and the air seemed to vibrate with tension as Orpheus turned his attention to Raymond. His voice was firm and commanding, "Raymond, find another housekeeper." The weight of his words hung heavy, and Raymond was momentarily speechless. Without thinking, he blurted out, "Why?" The question lingered, and Orpheus' icy stare fixed on him, making Raymond regret his lack of tact.
