When Delphine came downstairs, Sylvester Cloud was chatting with the old butler. The man was dressed in a dark green sweater, his figure slender, his features handsome and refined. His words were witty and charming, making the room full of servants flush with spring-like excitement.
In an instant, the oppressive atmosphere that once hung over the Leclair estate had dissipated.
Sylvester's sharp eyes quickly spotted Delphine descending. Rising to his full height of six foot three, his presence was commanding as he smiled with a charming elegance and said, "The other day, my sister fell into the lake and accidentally bumped into Miss Gu. Today, I'm here to offer my apologies."
Two days had passed since the Cloud Family's banquet of gratitude, and this matter had already been long forgotten. Why would Sylvester think to visit the Leclair estate now?
Delphine maintained a polite smile and softly replied, "Mr. Cloud, you're too kind."
