"SO WHAT do you think of Ruto?" Neoma asked Lewis while they were in her room. "He looks like a good child, doesn't he?"
Right now, she was sitting on the sofa as her son stood behind her.
They were waiting for two things.
First, she asked Alphen to fetch a potion from Madam Hammock. She asked the Healing Sage for a potion that would make her hair longer. It was the same one that she often uses every time she was disguised as Miss Ramsay.
Second, she asked Stephanie to prepare a simple outfit for her. After all, she was going to face Ruto as a lady-in-waiting trainee.
"He's ugly."
She almost choked on her saliva when she heard what Lewis said. When she turned to her son, she was even more surprised to see him scowling. "What did you say, Lewis?"
"Chef Ruston Stroganoff is ugly," Lewis said coldly. "I don't like him."
"Son, what did I say about poking one's appearance? Yes, it's bad," she scolded him. "Plus, Ruto isn't ugly."
