Scarlet Mansion, Ocien.
"Is something the matter?" The Scarlet Lord asked as he raised his head to look at Erina standing in front of him.
"I went looking for mom, but she is not in the chamber. I heard from the servants that she has been moved to a different place," Erina spoke with a serious look on her face.
"It hasn't even been a day since your return. Shouldn't you be resting first?" The Scarlet Lord calmly stated.
"I am fine, I want to meet mom," Erina replied before further asking, "Where is she?"
"Go and rest for now. I will send someone to take you there tomorrow." Scarlet Lord waved his hand.
"But.."
"No buts…leave now. I have important matters to tend to." Scarlet Lord didn't allow her to speak anymore.
Erina could only look at him in disappointment before leaving.
When she left, Scarlet Lord raised his head to look at the door for a few seconds before continuing to do his work.
