"My Lady? My Lady, should I show you to your room?"
Delaney turned and found the housekeeper, Mrs. Crouch, watching her with a warm smile on her wrinkled face. She'd been the housekeeper at Edgewood Manor as long as Delaney could remember.
"Of course," Delaney agreed, trying to pull herself together, "Thank you, Mrs. Crouch. I'm glad to see you're still taking good care of Edgewood."
"Oh," the grey-haired woman chuckled, pleased at being noticed, "I manage to keep things running smoothly enough. I will say it was easy these last few years with no one here to look after but I'm so happy you and his Lordship have finally come so the house can be a home again."
Delaney swallowed. She was afraid she and Vincent were going to be a great disappointment.
