Leila was surprised by the time Beatrice said it was. "Was it that late?" she thought as she massaged her temples, still feeling the throbbing pain in her head
She tossed the thought to the back of her mind. It did not matter anyway. "So?" she said still irritated, "I worked late yesterday, so I got too exhausted and slept a little over" she added
What work? Leila was mostly inside her room, what type of work could she possibly do? Beatrice thought to herself.
The only time she had seen Leila work on something was when she was repairing the lock for her secret room.
She saw Leila placing and adjusting a new eagle on the table and was screwing a few nuts in and nothing else.
"What-"
"Beatrice, why don't you go warm up the food? Leila must be famished, so do I" Mr Marvin said.
Leila turned to him surprised, but it was quick to leave her face as her headache made her frown.
