When morning finally came, the departure of Baron Hugh and his family was a prompt one.
It was accompanied with the nursing of some drunken headaches, but it was an overall good affair made in good spirits.
"We shall see each other again, quite soon." Baron Hugh exchanged words with Count Inanis, Lord Asher and everyone else.
"That is true." Count Inanis nodded.
"Well, I do not think Viscountess Blackshield made it, though." Baron Hugh laughed. "Ah, she went drinking hard last night, so please give my regards to her when she does leave."
"I am sure that she would be here if she held herself back," Lucius chuckled.
"Indeed. Haha, she truly does not hold back. But ah, time is so limited. I wish to share a word with Benjamin and Lily in private."
"Of course, Baron Hugh."
Baron Hugh addressed his children as well, and in an act of fatherly nature, he reached out and pulled the two of them together into a hug.
