After a considerable knock, the door finally opened from inside.
The handsome and aloof face of Aidan Lucas appeared behind the door.
"Sir... Mister..." Ellie was so scared by Aidan Lucas's gloomy gaze that she felt weak in the knees.
For the sake of Young Lady's health, she bravely stated, "Dinner...dinner's ready... Young Lady is pregnant, she can't go hungry..."
After Ellie had stammered out her sentence, she didn't dare to look him in the eye.
Contrary to her fears, the expected anger did not occur. Aidan Lucas just lightly acknowledged with a 'Hmm'.
Then he turned back into the room.
Ellie waited outside the door, not daring to go in, and unsure what Lucas was up to.
Why did he open the door only to go back in?
Just as she was wondering, she saw Aidan Lucas come out again.
This time, he was carrying someone.
Aidan Lucas came out holding the dainty Lily Gray, his face still as cold as ever.
