"I need to go out on urgent work and won't be back until the day after tomorrow morning. I heard that you wanted to go shopping," said Warren making her wonder when she had said that. Warren then continued, "But unfortunately due to work, I won't be here. I could ask Lord Nicholas to lend his butler for that duration if you don't mind, after all, you are new to this land."
"I think so?" she said going along with what he said.
"That's wonderful," Warren smiled, "And I was wondering, if it would be alright I would like to have dinner with you." Were they not having dinner together all this time?
"I mean just you and I, at one of the patios in the mansion." It took her a while to understand that he was waiting for her reply.
"Ah-yes. I would like that," she answered.
"I'm glad to hear that." he said before his smile faltered and he looked behind her and then at her again, "Please see that it doesn't get infected. Have a good time in the town."
