Veronica was in a dilemma about how she should act in front of Arthur. She had never fought with Catherine before, so she had no idea how to ignore a friend when she was mad at one. At that time, she heard someone speaking outside the tent she was in, "Miss Veronica, are you busy? May I come inside?"
"Sir Felix?" Veronica stood up and moved the curtain a little to make sure that it was indeed him. "What makes you come here at this hour?"
Felix said, "I have something to talk about. May I please come in?"
"Sure," Veronica let him in. "Please sit anywhere you want."
Nothing in there was suitable for people to sit except for the bed. Thus, Felix declined her offer, "No, it's fine. I'll just stand. I don't have much to talk about."
