The boy who entered appeared to be about the same age as Evelyn, although that wasn't much of a surprise. What did surprise her was that she knew who this boy was.
Evelyn hadn't expected to meet anyone she knew on this journey, aside from her own group. This was because she couldn't possibly know of any younger children among the commoners, and the ones in ancient families were all mostly older than her.
But if she recalled correctly, this boy had been in the same area as Cecilia, before the girl had dragged her away.
She had just assumed he was either a servant or an attendant to the older looking boy, but apparently that wasn't quite the case.
She hadn't been able to talk to any of the others that day, but considering that Cecilia told her the others were badmouthing her during the ceremony, she did not have high expectations from any of them anyway.
