"That is right. Still, I saw him in passing and couldn't help thinking he was a scary man. Zayne also seems to be afraid of him. I must get used to a warden also looking so scary. He must be different when he is with family," said Iris.
"He isn't. He seems to think that we should always be afraid of him so we don't speak of him being soft and let others stop fearing him. After a while, you'll get used to it. I had no other choice," said Olivia.
"I see," Iris responded, still uncertain. "I will concern myself with only what you think of me. And your husband, of course."
"Don't concern yourself with my husband. As long as I am happy, he will accept you. You appear to be a very quiet and polite young lady. Then you are related to Damien's wife. It is all wonderful," Olivia said, pleased that the two families now had a true tie.
"I once thought that Zayne was courting me so he could truly be family with Lord Hawthorne," Iris confessed.
