"Sir Robert said everything is in its place now, and we are ready to go," Stella informed.
As a duchess's lady-in-waiting, Stella was not coerced into this political move by Ariana. She had the final say, and her willingness to participate stemmed from her genuine love for helping people.
Ariana nodded.
"Then, Stella, you go and enter the carriage first. I need to meet the Head Butler Smith for a moment."
Listening to that, Stella, without wasting time, understood the instructions and went to the intended carriage. She will share the carriage with Ariana later.
As soon as Stella is gone, Lily continues to whisper.
"Duchess... Is it okay to keep Stella in the dark like this?"
