章 257: Relaxed (2)

The next day, Scarlet headed out early with Ian to explore the town. This time, Ian sat at the back of the carriage as one of his guards took his spot up front. 

Ian used this to make up for the time he wasted not being by Scarlet's side on the way here. He held her hand, rubbing it occasionally to warm her up. He made a mental note to buy Scarlet gloves. 

"Winter might be upon us sooner than we think. I do not mind as it will be the perfect weather to convince you to stay inside," said Ian.

"If you mean when we return to Lockwood then you are sadly mistaken. Winter brings many parties at my hotels so I will be busy making sure those customers get what they paid for. Winter brings many visitors as well. I only hope that this winter isn't so bad as to ruin my family reunion," Scarlet said, looking away from the carriage window to Ian.
