Thea reached 'the great manor', dressed in a nice yellow dress with a little touch of make-up. Rees met her at the entrance, and as they walked inside, he leaned down to murmur compliments in her ear that made her blush.
She had brought their wedding cards with her. Thea was a little nervous as they walked to meet Lord Augustus and Theodora first. She had never encountered both of them and had heard many things about them from Rees and Ruth.
"Do not worry and let me do all the talking. Okay?" Rees assured her.
Thea nodded her head. She was surprised to see Fannie standing beside Theodora. Thea wondered if she was fine now, but did not ask her anything.
"My Lord, My Lady!" Rees bowed in respect, drawing the couple's attention.
Thea also bowed along with Rees. The moment her eyes met Theodora's hazel ones, she shifted her weight uncomfortably on her other foot.
"Rees?" She said.
Augustus watched at the two with his grey eyes with avoiding the face.
