Capítulo 262: Penelope's Yearning.

Once Hal was outside the Baron's residence he stopped and looked up at the night sky littered with twinkling stars and the silver moon and sighed deeply.

He had come here with Eva's carriage and did not expect her to be coming out to order him to be taken back anytime soon, so he considered walking back to the Hotel.

The distance was not too far for him to traverse and he quite preferred the option to have to ask one of the Carriage men to take him back.

Even if he could make use of Eva's name.

He was still thinking about this when a carriage stopped right in front of him and the one Lady Penelope thrust her head out of the window, 

"Want a ride?" She asked him with a smile.

Hal grinned and shrugged, 

"I'm not averse to that" he said just as the carriage doors opened and he stepped inside to sit opposite Penelope and beside her guard.

The guard glared at him so Hal decided to make use of it as the perfect excuse.
