Capítulo 60: Some day in the future

Eve stepped inside the house with her hands full, and Aunt Aubrey, who was sitting in her resting chair in the living room, caught sight of it. The older woman peered through her reading glasses and said, 

"I thought I heard the carriage stop in front of the house."

"Ah yes. I ran into someone whom I met last Sunday and she dropped me home," replied Eve, while placing the umbrella at the stand. 

"Must have been a nice person?" Aunt Aubrey asked and Eve gave a second before she nodded. "Was it the Moriarty's who handed these to you?" she asked, looking at Eve walk into the living room. 

"It was from Lady Marceline. Allie's elder sister gave it to me," replied Eve, carefully placing the gowns on one of the empty cushioned chairs. "She invited me for this upcoming  ball that is going to be held in the Moriarty mansion, two weeks from now. She said I might need these clothes."
