When Roman returned to the manor, the main door was opened by the Moltenore's family's butler. Compared to how things were when he had first come to live with his father and the rest of the family, people's behaviour towards him had changed in many ways.
"Welcome back home, Master Roman," greeted the butler with a bow. The man's hair had turned completely grey, his skin slightly wrinkled. He stepped behind Roman, helping the young master remove his coat, and hanged it on the stand. "Was Mr. Trosney not at his place?" asked the butler in a polite tone.
"He had guests to entertain. I will visit him later," said Roman and made his way inside the manor.
The butler closely followed his young master from behind while keeping a good distance as he was only a servant who served Lord Moltenore's family, while the boy was the Lord's son.
