When Ian returned to his mansion, he asked after Mina, which had become his new routine. He liked to know when she was safe in her room. Likewise, he hated when she was out with anyone other than himself. He was shocked when he was told that Mina was having her dinner in the dining room.
For days Mina had been taking her meals alone, and Ian was curious as to what could have lured her out from hiding. Something told him that it was due to his absence, but he did not think Mina cared enough to put so much effort into avoiding him.
Ian almost did not bother to go look, but his butler's expression told him that he wanted to say more, so Ian went to the dining room anyway.
