Then, when morning came, after Howland received news that Aslan might be seen at Duke Aamon's residence, a maid informed him that Rosie had woken up.
No one else in the meeting room moved apart from Duchess Coby, who immediately got up to see Rosie's condition.
Duke Coby apologized to Yvonne.
"Forgive my wife's rudeness. She feels sympathy because … she has been through the same incident before," said Duke Coby, but Yvonne ignored it.
Yvonne chose to read the book that was on her lap again, while Howland also followed his aunt without asking his mother's permission first. After he arrived, he just stood at the door while looking at Rosie, who looked paler and thinner than before.
Rosie turned and smiled at him. "Howland," the girl called in a hoarse voice.
"Yeah?"
"I… want to tell you something," she said in a very weak voice.
