“Aaron,” Marilla gazed at the man, her doe eyes sparkling like they were washed with spring water.
The sight of Aaron, with his unexpected presence, instantly dissolved her anxiety. Beside Aaron stood an elegant and proud woman, Suri, Aaron’s mother.
Marilla’s heart leaped into her throat. Mr. Bartley, a seasoned politician, was known for his diplomatic prowess, something Marilla had overheard from her mother Elspeth.
