By the time I arrived at the dining table, everyone except father had arrived. Cardin quietly trailed behind me and took his seat on the right-hand side of father's chair at the table, while mother was on the left side. Seeing me, she smiled, and I returned it as I sat in my seat.
'When I returned to the mansion two days ago, we had a talk and resolved all misunderstandings. It's good to know we're both in the same boat.'
Though the initial doubts I had towards mother have now planted a seed of wariness in my mind. After all, I still don't know who targeted my business. All I have now as a suspect is this mysterious magic guild Henry is currently looking into.
That's a matter for another day because right now, I'm curious as to why father has called for this family dinner. As I completely settled in my seat, my eyes travelled to Olivia, who still looked angry, to Paisley, whose head was facing down, then to Madam Ashley, who sat beside mother.
