"Richard," Mrs. Wilson said softly. "I'm happy to see you again… I didn't expect you to become this tall. And now Queen Lilith will become your wife."
"I suppose I've been blessed with good fortune since birth," Richard replied.
"Hahaha, that's true… You really are blessed. How about coming inside? I've cooked for you," Mrs. Wilson said.
