Aveline touched her face. "Really? Well, in that case, I won't have to go on a diet."

"You aren't disturbing us," Aveline interjected.

For some reason, she suddenly wanted Gernard to stay, to hear what was to be discussed next. It felt as if having him around provided a sense of security. This feeling was strange, catching her off guard, but she had already spoken. Gernard decided not to leave. "Very well, I will be there at court tomorrow too, so don't worry."

"Alright." Aveline nodded.
