It was hard for Julian to refuse such hospitality. Julian knew he couldn’t let down the Jarvis family, so he continued to accompany Frederick for a while.

Sue noticed they were getting along well, and her mood improved even more. She brought more food, clearly hinting that Julian should stay the night.
