Something strange occurred when Mary Ann served tea to her and her brother—Rosalyn Lockhart could have sworn that her older brother stared at Mary Ann far longer than what was appropriate. Her cook bowed and fled the drawing room due to shyness or possibility from the intensity of his looks.
It was enough to make the Queen of Hearts realize one thing.
The Lord of the Lockhart House, Reinhard Lockhart, was still unmarried. And if it weren't for the occurrence in their family a few years back… he would surely be a bachelor that many would vie for—a position in the Lockhart family and immediately the wife of the Head of the House?
There weren't more important roles that one can get than that.
"There seems to be something on your mind, Rosalyn?" he asked. The Lord said after he sipped his tea and gave her a small bow, "I pay compliments to the tea, it is… sweet."
