In a largely decorated room sat an old woman on a couch, her back leaning against the chair while the servant behind her gently massaged her head.
Peony, on the other hand, was kneeling and holding the ends of the woman's dress firmly. She was crying ever since she entered the room and was pleading for the woman's forgiveness.
If she had gone to Leif immediately, she would have been doomed but this grandma was the intermediary between her and Leif. If ever they got into a fight, she was the one to settle it for them.
"Your action this time cannot be pardoned" The woman huffed firmly as she sat up straight, the servant went away to bring her the jasmine tea, which she always had after her massage like this.
