Observed His Daughter

'What friends!?' The little girl's disgruntlement was not visible to the elders.

Yvonne did not consider either of those girls to be her friend and hence she was not willing to accept the words that her mother had just spoken.

"The three of them looked so good together!" Raylene gushed as she began narrating how they had met outside the cafe and had even followed her inside.

'Here it comes!' Yvonne braced herself for when her mother would come to the part about the interaction between herself and Baron MacIntyre.

Rutherford was all smiles as he heard about his child mingling with the other girls in high society.

He had always felt that when compared with the other noble girls, his daughter was more reserved and reclusive.

Therefore, he was happy to hear that she had friends even when she didn't venture outside the mansion as the other girls did.
