บท 181: Where the Rumors Began

Arabella continued working and in the afternoon, as promised, she tried the tea Raymond gifted her. It was labeled as Venus tea.

Carla and Irene prepared it for her.

She inhaled upon receiving the cup, "Mm. It's fragrant."

Arabella liked its scent. She then took a sip.

"And sweet."

She loved its sweet taste. It was one of the sweetest teas she ever had without having to add honey, milk, or sugar cubes. It was delicious just as it is.

And just a few minutes after drinking a cup, Arabella felt it. It was indeed effective in soothing a tired body.

It helped her relax and regain some energy. Thus, she was able to do some more reading before retiring for the night.

She only brought out a bit of every flavor for her taste-testing and kept the rest for when Ferdinand returned from the borders.

In a few days, she sent a letter to Raymond about her most preferred flavor.
