Aveline initially thought she wouldn't be able to sleep at the Tudor residence, but she fell into a deep slumber as soon as she lay down. When she woke, it was already the next morning.

Aveline paused and replied, "No, thanks. I'm running late for work."

Lucas remarked, "You have nothing urgent at work right now, so why rush?"
