章 526: Ending feuds (1)

"I don't want to meet with anyone else today. I am tired and just want to rest. Alfred," Alessandra greeted Alfred, who like always, was waiting at the door. "I always wonder how you are able to tell when we are returning home. Do you come to the door regularly to check the gates?"

"That is part of it, but other times I just get a feeling that you might be there. I am used to predicting when Edgar will return home. How was the palace?" Alfred asked, helping Alessandra out of her coat. 

"It was fun. It is good to meet with friends and let your guard down. Did they finish painting the room?" Alessandra asked because she wanted to see what was done to the child's room in her absence. It would help take her mind off what was discussed with her mother.
