— What a…! Only the gods will help me to talk sense into that girl!
— Darling, don't be angry,» Obelia Windsor handed her husband a glass of water, «Why make such a fuss this morning?
— Ha! Because I'm running out of patience!
The former marquis and now ruler of the Empire Oberon was in his study — and he tore in annoyance the first available documents. All this unrest would sooner or later drive him to his grave.
Following the water, Aubelia also served him some valerian. Rodrigue drank the whole shot in one gulp.
— Tell me, what have we got such a daughter for? — the Marquis lamented.
Obelia snorted.
— Didn't you raise her like that? I remember that even as a child you did not forbid her anything.
— It was when she was a child! Why doesn't her character change with age?
Both husband and wife sighed. That had been their main problem lately.
