Elara wiped her hands on a towel and moved to the table instead, dropping into the chair beside Emma. She slipped off her apron and hung it back up.
"Thanks," she murmured.
Emma sat back down, still watching Bernard work.
"Di you care for juice?" she asked, glancing at her.
Elara nodded.
Emma turned slightly. "Bernard… two glasses of moonberry nectar."
"Alright," he said and walked towards the refrigerator. Emma was still surprised and was more surprised because Elara did not notice anything different in his appearance. She ignored him totally and acted as if he did not exit as she engaged her in a conversation. It is quite unlike her. Elara is humble and she doesn't ignore or look down on my domestic workers. She wondered why she did not like Bernard.
