Lilian was cleaning the dining table when she heard evident footsteps that reached the dining-room door. Behaving as if she didn't hear it, she continued to clean the surface of the table spotless, and she heard the person speak,

"Do you have a family here?"

Her hand paused, turning her head. She saw it was Mr. Donovan at the door. She shook her head before she said, "No."

"Does it mean that they are dead or you ran away from your home, when you were younger?" questioned Donovan. "After I left the inn, I went to meet a man to discuss something, and the name of the Blackburn family came up. Lilian Lena Blackburn."

Lilian's hand gripped on the cloth, and she asked, "Is there something you would like to speak about, Mr. Donovan? I have work to complete."
