This side of the manor was in complete chaos, while on the other side, with the barriers of the past entirely gone, Ronald Loman and Annie Taylor were like newlyweds, exceptionally sweet for a moment, inseparably glued together all day.
Ronald Loman hadn't rushed to return, worried that going back might just lead to another storm.
Additionally, he'd recently heard from Old Six of the Moss Family that Lucas was getting along well with the old man, becoming his number one follower, which made him ponder letting the grandfather and grandson build some affection first, making things easier when the time comes.
Besides that, he was waiting for the affair between Victoria Lee and Sam Fish to ferment, knowing that news needs a few days of heat to become the focus, to gradually dig out more dirt, regardless of whether it's true or false, eventually forcing the old man to agree to his divorce with Victoria Lee, even though he knows Ronald orchestrated the whole thing!
