Drawing in a deep breath, I kept my expression plain, holding up my dress as I came down the stairs.
"I merely went for a stroll, dear husband. I hope his lordship doesn't mind?" I asked, my voice oozing sarcasm as I finally got to the dining table.
I drew out a chair and sat but before I could even get comfortable, Kaelos, who'd been standing all this while, walked up to me slowly, his footsteps echoing.
I tensed up, wondering what he was up to. I couldn't help but glance at Caroline who stood at the side, her head lowered meekly.
Anyway, when Kaelos finally got to my seat, he didn't say anything but simply grabbed my wrist.
I gasped silently but before I could even say anything, he dragged me to the seat at the left side of the head of the table at the other side.
He placed me on the seat before sitting on the chair at the head of the table, his expression plain as he adjusted his tie before he began eating.
