After finishing their breakfast at 'Bakers' Delight, Edwin took Ruth directly to the site of the dockyard. People gathered to meet Edwin when they got the news. Now that the news of Edwin surrendering all his authority to Elsie had reached not only the Vincardine but also beyond its boundaries. And thus, workers wanted to know about their present and future.
As soon as Edwin's carriage came to a halt, Rees and Kevin walked toward it, ready to protect Edwin and Ruth from any unforeseen danger.
People were expecting only Edwin, but when they saw Ruth accompanying him, they hesitated to go near the couple. They didn't know if it was the right time to ask their queries.
"Good morning, My Lord! Luna!" Both Rees and Kevin greeted with a short bow.
"Good morning Rees, Kevin!" Ruth smiled at them.
But Edwin was distracted by the murmuring crowd.
"What is going on there?" He asked instead of replying to the men's greetings.
