This morning, when Ruth came into 'the grea manor', she was surprised to see Thea there.
"Good morning Sunshine!" She hugged Ruth as soon as she saw her coming her way.
"Good morning Mrs Welby. I see someone is in a great mood today. May I know the reason?" Ruth asked, pulling away from her.
Thea had a mischievous smile on her face. "That is a surprise for you!" She winked.
"Come now." Thea dragged Ruth towards the parlour where everyone was already present.
Ruth was confused, but by the way Thea was bouncing in joy, she hoped that it was a piece of good news.
Her eyes then finally met with a pair of cerulean blue orbs. He was already staring at her. As usual, his face did not give away his thoughts.
Unlike before, Ruth smiled this time. He replied with a subtle nod of his head, that she would have found arrogant of him if she did not know him well. The man lack in the department of expressing himself.
