Chapitre 87: The Marchioness' Request

Elara walked unhurriedly toward her mother, Lady Marianne, who was sitting in the gazebo, drinking tea and overlooking the well-manicured garden. The afternoon sun cast a warm golden glow, and a gentle breeze rustled the leaves of the surrounding trees.

"Mother," Elara greeted with a small smile as she approached the gazebo. She had been busy with her return and had finally found a moment to spend with her.

Lady Marianne looked up from her tea, her eyes lighting up as she saw her daughter. "Elara, my dear, come and join me. It's such a lovely day."

Elara gracefully took a seat across from her mother and accepted a cup of tea from the nearby tray. "Indeed, Mother, it's a perfect day to relax in the garden."

They sipped their tea in comfortable silence for a while, enjoying the serenity of the moment.

"Where is sister Rowena?" Elara inquired, curious about the whereabouts of her elder sibling.
