Around half-past seven in the afternoon, people began to appear at the gate to the Black family mansion. As a good host, of course, Mister and Mrs. Black themselves welcomed them all.
They could let the servant welcomed them, but it was no longer a secret that Mister Old Black and his wife liked to engage with many people and welcome the guests themselves.
Mrs. Helena Black was a little surprised when she saw Victoria's face also standing next to her to welcome guests. She didn't like her husband's niece very much, but she still smiled at her.
"Honey, you forgot to tell me that your niece came here," whispered Mrs. Black to her husband after making sure no one heard her voice.
"She came suddenly. I didn't have time to tell you." Mr. Black also whispered to his wife without breaking his smile when welcoming one of his business partners. "By the way, from today, Jacob will stay with us."
