Bab 499: Dark Substance

One hour ago,

Rothley Estate, Wugari

"You are here?" Rosalind was taken aback when she learned that Lachlan Blaize and Josephine had come to visit. The earthquake had just subsided about an hour ago, so she was genuinely curious why they were here instead of assessing the earthquake's aftermath.

"Josephine has something to discuss," Lachlan promptly stated. As always, he did not beat around the bush and got straight to the point. But Rosalind could easily discern that he appeared troubled, conflicted, perhaps even a tad angry.

"Did something happen?" Rosalind shifted her gaze toward the woman sitting next to Lachlan, who had been staring at her since she walked in. "Magda, please serve them more refreshments," Rosalind instructed, noticing that the food in front of the two had disappeared. She knew it was Josephine, but she did not dwell on it too much, as the woman seemed to have a penchant for eating.
