“Why are you here?” Lucian questioned expressionlessly after pulling Aubree to the edge of the planting site.

Upon hearing that, Aubree gazed at the little girl in her embrace with concern. “I was worried about Essie, so I came over to check on things. Don’t worry. I won’t make things difficult for all of you.”

As soon as she said that, Lucian’s stern voice rang out again. “Well, you’ve seen everything now. Essie’s adapting well. If there’s nothing else, you may leave.”

Aubree’s expression stiffened. “Lucian, I traveled all the way here. Surely you won’t let me go back just like that without a meal?”

With that, she hung her head guiltily and mumbled, “I know. You still blame me for hurting Essie last time, but I swear I didn’t do it on purpose. I’ve been regarding Essie as my own for so many

years. How would I bear to harm her? Besides, you’ve already punished me for that, and I know what I’ve done wrong. Please, just forgive me, will you?”
