Laura wakes up the next day feeling excited to go to church. She was sure that Graven will come to his senses and appear in the church today to apologize to her for insulting her the other night.
She was looking forward to seeing him again!
She joined the father and son in the dining room for breakfast. She looked at her future father-in-law. "Father, can I go to church with Neeza today, after lunch?" she asked for his permission.
Nicholas glanced at her. "Yes, of course!" he replied with a smile. He looked at his son. "Cooper, why don't you go to church with Laura?" he asked him.
"Father, I have some other business to take care of today. I will accompany Laura to the church some other time," Cooper declined.
"Okay, I'll instruct the servant to ready the carriage..." Nicholas said.
"Thank you, Father," Laura said.
"Don't mention it," Nicholas murmured.
They finished breakfast half hour later.
Hours went by.
Lunchtime comes.
