From a distance, Rosalie let out a sigh of relief.
She walked over slowly, and said, Sorry, a friend called me. We haven’t been in touch for a long time, so the conversation took a while. I see you two are having a great time chatting.
Yes, Miss Yancey is a very witty person. Talking to her has made me feel much more at ease, Sebastian replied.
Rosalie sat down next to Sebastian. Seeing him looking so cheerful, she felt that arranging for Lily and him to spend time alone together was indeed a good thing.
Clearly, being with someone he liked made him different; he was very relaxed around Lily. Rosalie felt that they were a good match.
Throughout the meal, Rosalie frequently went to the restroom or stepped outside, leaving most of the time for Sebastian and Lily to be alone together. Consequently, the dinner lasted quite a while.
After the meal, Rosalie didn’t urge Lily to go home. Instead, she continued to chat with Lily.
She would occasionally bring up topics for conversation, while she herself stayed quiet and unobtrusive.
Regardless of whether Sebastian genuinely enjoyed talking with Lily or was just being considerate of Rosalie’s feelings, he talked with her for a long time.
Rosalie was happy. She looked at Lily, and thought that Lily didn’t seem like someone who would decisively reject Sebastian. Lily seemed to like Sebastian, too. Rosalie wondered if there was some misunderstanding.
Soon, night had fallen. Lily suddenly realized how long she had been talking with Sebastian, especially with his wife still present. It was a bit absurd that this situation was intentionally created by Sebastian’s wife.
She glanced at the time. It’s getting late. I should head back.
Are you leaving already? Rosalie didn’t want Lily to go, as she assumed that Sebastian was having a good time chatting with Lily.
Yes, it’s already quite late. I’ll head back now, Lily said.
Okay. Rosalie checked the time as well. It really is late. I’m really sorry for keeping you so long.
It’s alright. I had a great time.
Rosalie smiled, and suddenly thought of something. How about this? You stay here tonight, and I’ll have someone take you home first thing in the morning.
That might not be a good idea. I’d rather go back now.
It’s no problem. We have a spare room here, and everything is new. If you need anything, I’ll have someone get it for you. It’s quite late, and it would be too late by the time you get home, Rosalie said.
Lily was about to decline further, but Sebastian stood up. Miss Yancey, why don’t you listen to Rose? Just stay here tonight.
Um…
Lily hesitated, but Rosalie had already walked up to her and linked arms with her enthusiastically. I’ll show you to your room.
Lily reluctantly agreed, and followed Rosalie. She glanced back at Sebastian, who gave her a reassuring look.
Rosalie led Lily to the guest room, which was quite spacious. Miss Yancey, you’ll stay here tonight. All the supplies are clean and new, so you can use them without any worries.
She then went to the wardrobe and brought out some underwear and sleepwear for Lily. These are all new and clean. You can use them. Any clothes you change out of will be sent for cleaning and returned to you by tomorrow morning.
Thank you. Lily took the sleepwear from Rosalie with both hands.
You’re welcome. I should be the one to thank you, actually, Rosalie said, glancing outside the door to make sure no one was around before continuing, I feel like you and Seb had a great conversation. You really seem to get along well.
