"I did not mean to hijack your carriage, I apologize, Sir Benjamin Stonia," Aaron said to Ben as they rode the same carriage with Emmeline towards their original destination. Since she had tired herself out and had a good fill, Kim Su Won had slept as soon as they took their seats in the carriage. Ben could not have let Aaron not sit in the carriage, unlike Anna who he had been able to throw out to sit with the coachman.

"It's alright, there was no other arrangement that could be done," Ben sulked a bit. There was actually ample space in here for four people. And right now, Emmeline who was fast asleep was leaning against Aaron's shoulder. There was a peace on her face that Ben had not seen before.
