THE dining room was just as exquisite as the other rooms in the mansion. Its tastefully decorated walls featured subtle touches of luxury, such as fine wood paneling and discreet gold accents. Soft ambient lighting created a warm and inviting atmosphere, enhancing the room's serene ambiance.
A long, impeccably crafted wooden table sits at the center, complemented by plush upholstered chairs that offer comfort without compromising style. The table was adorned with sleek white dishes, shiny silver utensils, and clear glass cups, creating an atmosphere of understated luxury.
The servants were lined up on the side, ready to deliver the dinner prepared for this evening.
The duke was sitting at the head of the table. Thomas was sitting on his right while Cassius was sitting on his left. Nicol was supposed to sit beside his father, but he insisted on sitting beside Astrid. So the kid ended up sitting between Astrid and Cassius. Which forced Ellis to sit beside Thomas.
