Arielle's POV.
I returned to my room, troubled by numerous questions in my head. I had always thought of Cecilia as someone I could confide in. I thought there was no bad blood between us.
She had always been kind to me but today… The fire in her eyes was nothing close to kindness. It was a threat and it was cruel.
The way she looked at me today, it was as if I had stolen something important from her.
I stopped at the door to my room and turned back to Baron. "Wait outside, I want to freshen up and I will return outside to continue with the children."
"Yes, my lady."
I closed the door behind me and I wasn't surprised to meet Riley in the room. She was folding clothes into the wardrobe and from the scent, I could tell it was new.
"How's our lady doing?" Riley dropped the clothes she folded and approached me.
