Roman couldn't remember saying no to Violet. So when she asked him to join them for lunch with that brave smile on her, he didn't have the heart to say no.
Somewhere on the plantation was a two-storey house for the family of three and a few servants who were loyal to Princess Violet. While they were waiting for the food, Violet led Roman to the sitting room while the children rest in their rooms.
Roman gazed down at the tea in front of him after she slid it towards him. When he raised his eyes, he caught the subtle smile on her face before she poured herself a cup of tea.
"I was taken aback when I saw you, but I was glad I noticed you were there before you left." Violet placed the teapot to the side and flashed him a kind smile. "You're always like that, Your Highness. Even in the past, you always leave without a word."
