The day went by and Stella didn't get to see Adam, not even at lunch and dinner. She wanted to ask the old butler but thought that it would be a bit awkward after what he had witnessed earlier in the day.
As if sensing her hesitation while having her dinner, the old butler politely said, "He had some work to do during lunch, so he had it in his room. As for now, he sends his apologies to you, he asked me to inform you that he had a video conference to attend with some overseas company."
"Oh! Thank you." She replied, giving him a polite smile. After getting done with her dinner, she headed upstairs to her room. She wanted to talk to him but decided to do it later thinking that he might still be busy with the meeting.
