Chapter: 141

Mrs. Puares nodded lightly, smiled and said to Aurora:

"Looking forward to the gift you bring back from Trier, where the fashion trend always makes me yearn."

"I hope I can give you a surprise." Although Aurora didn't know if he would be able to return to Kordu Village in his lifetime, he still had to make a statement.

Mrs. Puares led the sister and brother to the door with her personal maid, Cassie, and watched them get into the box-style four-seater carriage.

The heavyset coachman with dark brown whiskers, dressed in crimson, yellow trousers, and a waxed hat, was almost like a professional coachman in the city, except he didn't wear a tie.

This is the mandatory requirement of the Administrator, Beorst.

"I'm sorry to trouble you." Before closing the door, Aurora said politely to the driver.

The driver's name is Sewell, and he has the most common blue eyes in the Republic of Intis.

He was delighted by the respect of this beautiful lady, Aurora, and looked forward to the tip that he would definitely get after arriving in Daliege, and said enthusiastically:

"Ma'am, sir, sit down."

He raised his whip and let the horses move from slow to fast.

When the carriage passed through the village of Kordu, it stopped suddenly.

Although he knew that the road to leave would never be smooth and easy, Lumian couldn't help but thump.

"What's the matter?" He asked the driver outside across the carriage.

Sewell said:

"Madam promised to send Naroka to Junac Village yesterday. I was worried that it would be too late to go back to Darliege, so I thought I would pick her up on the way. Don't worry, I won't delay your time."

Junac Village is closer to Daliege than Kordu Village, and going there first really doesn't affect the time for Orol and Lumian to reach their destination.

Because it was someone else's carriage, and she had no right to stop it, so Auror did not raise any objections.

Lumian cared more about Naroka—in the last cycle, Naroka died suddenly, suspected of being murdered by relatives, and was related to the church priest and the group.

Sewell got out of the carriage, entered Naroka's house, and then led the lady out.

Naroka was different from usual, she changed into a long black dress with delicate patterns, and wore a dark soft hat that old ladies liked, her thin and pale hair was obviously carefully combed.

"Hey, my little cabbage, where are you going?" Naroka got into the carriage and was very happy to see Aurora.

Her blotchy and wrinkled face was filled with unconcealable joy, and her eyes, which were usually slightly cloudy, seemed to be brighter.

"I went to Trier to attend a writer's salon, and I took Lumian to inspect the university there." Aurora spoke the absolute truth.

She asked instead:

"Naroka, are you here as a guest?"

Although it is normal for Naroka to wear black as a widow, she only wears this dress for festivals, banquets and the anniversary of the death of her husband.

Naroka showed an expectant expression:

"Yeah, go meet some people."

Lumian didn't speak, and quietly observed Naroka, to see if he could see something from her.
