In the mansion of house Faldia a lady in her 40s could be seen taking a sip from her cup of coffee. One could say that she was having a calm day enjoying the beauty of silence.
But that wasn't the case. Amelia was worried about Lucifer, and seeing their mother in such a state John and Alicia had decided to join her for a family tea time.
They too were worried about lucifer but they couldn't show it on their face, afraid that it would worry their mother even more.
Unaware of their thoughts Amelia was engrossed in thinking hard about what to do.
Soon Lucifer would be leaving the house to join the academy. And thinking about his behavior towards others, she was worried that he may cause trouble for himself.
But still the thought of Victoria being in the same academy was the only calming point for her.
She was the vice president of the academy, so she was more than capable enough to deal with any sort of problems concerning her son.
Suddenly the voice of John brought her to her senses.
"Don't you think brother has changed a lot recently. I mean he seems a little too distant, but the fact that he has started his training again is a little worrisome."
Hearing something like this from John's mouth who respected and admired Lucifer more than anyone in the house was shocking for both Alicia and Amelia.
Masking her shock Amelia asked in a neutral tone, "Why do you think so? Isn't training his body important for him as the next heir to the house."
" Yeah, I know it's important for him, but I think the reason behind his sudden change is something different.
Honestly speaking I just feel that he is insecure about his position, due to sister Victoria pilling up her achievements one after the another. And that incident which occurred a few months ago.
Duke Wizer's only daughter Selena had tried to poison her elder brother for the position of Heir.
I know these are just baseless rumor because Selena wouldn't do something like this, but after hearing these rumors, brother would have thought the same about Victoria harming or maybe even....cough...cough....
I am sorry, I just got carried away.'' John said with an apologetic tone after seeing the pale face of his mother.
He really regretted putting his inner thoughts into words, and that to in front of his mother.
Alicia too could connect the dots and understand the recent change in her brother's attitude up to some extent. But she could see that hearing something like this about her children might have worried her mother even more than before.
She glared at John for his stupidity and then changed the topic of discussion," Mother let's go shopping tomorrow, we haven't gone out together for months!" Alicia pouted.
Amelia could clearly see her daughter's attempt to cheer her up, so without complaining she too went with the flow and the entire direction of their conversation changed.
Outside the room a girl in white hairs was listening to their conversation.
Hearing what John had said Victoria was at a loss.
She couldn't understand what she could do to clear this misunderstanding with Lucifer.
At the end of the day she decided to settle everything at the academy, away from her family.
