Chapter 437: Grandmother's help (2)

"Grandmother!" Annalise called as she knocked on Celeste's door. 

The house was dark which would be a sign to anyone that Celeste was not home, but Annalise knew her grandmother liked to keep her home dark sometimes to act like she wasn't around to send away guests.

"Why have you come to bother me, child?" Celeste questioned, lighting a lantern to reveal herself inside. 

"Grandmother, you can simply send away your guests if you don't want to speak instead of pretending that you are not home. There is much for everyone to see with the knights so you won't have anyone coming to bother you. Are you not happy to see me?" Annalise asked, opening her arms wide for a hug when Celeste opened the door.

"I sent the two of you off to do something and you failed me. Come inside quickly before someone sees that you are here and tries coming to speak," Celeste said, leaving the door open for them to enter.
