"I do not know why this had happened!" the Baroness sighed and ran her hands through her hair as she paced in the main hall of the mansion.
"I was certain we had a week left! I was certain!"
Aella looked up at Bane who was standing next to her as he stared at her mother.
After she had saved him from unleashing his powers, it took quite some time before Lord Mandeur was persuaded to leave with the huge trunk of golden coins that Bane had handed to him.
Even though his son, Jren, had tried to stop him because he was adamant about marrying her instead of the money, the greedy Lord had taken it anyways.
Her mother, sister and Bane were in the main hall as they all stood without saying a word after the scene that had happened outside.
Aella didn't know how to thank Bane for what he had done today. If it wasn't for him, they would have been kicked out of the mansion mercilessly as per Lord Mandeur's order but he had saved them in time.
