Not like my mother

'Radulf left early in the morning and didn't even talk to me. Is it because how I stopped him last night?' Melissa thought while looking at the list in her hand.

"Luna, should I approve the list of the goods?" Pia asked humbly.

"Yes, do it," Melissa replied, handing back the list to her. "Where did Radulf leave early in the morning? Did he not say anything?"

Pia refused and shook her head. Before she could tell Melissa to relax, Nina's voice came through and they glanced in her direction.

"Melissa, is Radulf in the office or in the chamber?" Nina asked, looking quite cheerful.

"Radulf is not in the mansion. Did something happen? And why were you coming from outside?" Melissa inquired with curiosity. Pia excused herself to carry out the work, leaving the two ladies alone in the living room.

Nina sat across from her. "Melissa, I won't be living here anymore," she revealed.
