I feel relieved upon meeting Baron Pierre on the next day, which means that Alessandra will not be dealing with me anymore.
"You may move into this headquarter tomorrow, Miss Lillian," the Baron started before taking a sip from his cup of coffee.
Earlier, he has invited me to converse for a while in his office. It's as opulent as Alessandra's room, but a bit huger. A tray of tea and coffee was also served on the table between us.
"Thank you, Baron Pierre. However, I would like to ask to stay in the inn for another week. The truth is, I already made a deposit for the rent the other day, but they told me it's non-refundable. I don't want to waste the money so I just decided to make use of it until then," I explained, earning a smile from him.
"I find it interesting that you're so thrifty and careful with money, Miss Lillian. Your mother taught you well."
I'm glad that the Baron is a principled man.
