Chapter 23

"What?" Lily belched in shock at what Mr Bamak had just said. She peeped at Harold, wondering if he was as embarrassed as she was, yet he only nodded at his dad.

"Definitely" he responded with good cheer. Lily winked at him in approval. Unlike her, who had almost dropped dead at the statement, he was graceful, and replied to his dad accordingly. But what did she expect really? Of a man that was a decade older than her. Of course, he would meander adequately.

Mr Bamak could not be any more pleased at these two. He smiled to show his satisfaction while he made himself comfortable. He had come to observe their union, and make it better for them to the best of his ability.

Harold and Lily went into the bedroom. When they were safely indoors, Dave, the butler, came in, to rid the bed of all the blankets that were there and left only one for Lily and Harold to share.

Mr Bamak stood at the door of their room, giving orders to Dave.
