Maidservant Ann...has passed

As the king was in between thinking about what Callum said and remembering the past, a guard announced;

"Maidservant Ann is here."

The door was opened and the king raised his head to see Maidservant Ann walking in. His eyes raised and he stood up immediately without thinking.

Maidservant Ann stopped at the front, carrying a tray in her hand and she gave a deep bow before looking up.

The king gulped and said in anticipation, "You finally came to see me." Seeing how she just stood there with the tray in her hand, he quickly sat down and motioned with his hand to the small cushion at the side. "Please, sit."

Maidservant Ann gave a bow again and turned to her left before setting the tray down and taking her seat. She raised the small kettle that was in the tray and as she poured into the cup, she said, "I made the tea you always loved."
