Safe Place
The trio arrived at the manor.
Corbin looked at Anastasia. "You can start preparing the meal for dinner in the kitchen. I'll talk with Ebony in my study room," he said.
"My lord, what specific meal do you want me to prepare for you?" Anastasia asked.
"No need to include me in your dinner preparation. The driver and I will leave the manor after I'm done talking to Ebony and left her some instructions," Corbin said.
"Ah, okay. I'll prepare the dish for dinner," Anastasia said and walked towards the kitchen.
Corbin looked at Ebony. "Follow me upstairs at the study room," he said.
"Yes, my lord!" Ebony replied.
They climbed the stairs shrouded in silence.
They reached the top of the stairs, walked in the hallway, and entered the study room.
Corbin went to his desk. "Have a seat..." he told her.
Ebony lowered herself on the chair.
Corbin stared at the woman in front of him. Trying to guess her origin.
