"Well… erm…"
"You learnt how to steal from Lord Ruyika's brother?"
"No… wait what?"
"Everyone knows that man is an expert in stealing. Have you been taking private lessons from him?"
"Oh course not! Why would you think about that Maribeth?"
"Well, who won't, when he has placed an eye on you for years now. Don't you know that Lord Ruyika stole you from his grips and married you before that bastard could?"
Maribeth's tone made Vin curious, "Did he do anything to you?"
"No! But always remember Lord Ruyika warned us about getting in contact with his family members. A single sighting and you would be taken as the wife?"
"I don't get it" Vin walked into the room, ready to hear Maribeth out. He never planned this to happen, but he couldn't help.
