The servants glanced at each other, visibly worried due to the tense atmosphere but they bowed and left. Only the Head Maid stayed with Elder Satara.
[Why does Mother look so pale? I have never seen her this intimidated by anyone before even when Lobelius was engulfed in wars. And what is with these overwhelming presences? It's like there were more than a thousand of Mother in this room when she was still at her peak. Is this from the Emperor? Is this why Mother looks so nervous?]
Arabella's gaze turned to the Head Maid when she heard such thoughts from her.
'Why is she calling Elder Satara as Mother? And what did she mean when Lobelius was engulfed in wars?'
As far as Arabella knew, Lobelius had not been engaged in wars for a while. And Elder Satara only had one child. It was Laurence the current Duke of Fraxinus Dukedom.
