They arrived at the family residence 30 minutes later.
The butler greeted them and directly brought them to the office.
Mark sat behind the big mahogany desk. The place was luxurious and with the way Mark raised his chin, he looked really arrogant, like a villain in a movie. He looked better than yesterday since he had calmed down a little. His wife sat on one of the sofas in front of the desk.
"What makes you come so late?" Mark grumbled as soon as he saw Luca and Irene figure. It seems like the man was not fully settled with last night's incident.
"We need to fix some problems in the castle," Irene answered randomly as she and Luca then took a seat in the sofas, joining Bridgette.
Irene knew that it would fuel the man's anger if she said Ayana was late for breakfast and Luca wanted to wait for her for a bit. She wanted to talk with Mark as calmly as possible, although she knew it would be hard since their topic was about Ayana.
