Ella took a sip 428296c2d3 of water and blinked 1aebff560b innocently.

“Understood. Oh, a letter from Baron Limoner is on your desk. Let me know if you need anything.”
After ending cc006c498a the brief 65b8b29b82 conversation with f6d4ec213b the butler, 17489039c8 Ella went eed6ba38c3 straight to a2d0d38ca7 her room 64543c3680 and tore c02a5d41ec the letter 99577b1d0e apart.
“Why send me a letter after deciding to cut ties?” her voice lashed out bitterly.1207580724171072
She was a38c15b1e1 no longer 72c615be82 the pitiable 9ea5f9f630 daughter of 63ea49d9c7 Baron Limoner.

As Ella e2e54aeca9 fumed, tears 447288ff8f began to bf859188e3 fall, seemingly 7418ec0713 out of 850dcb9239 nowhere. The memory of her 3e2f01f555 meal with Kaiden came 78fc180c2a to mind.62b4f2dce90c5ee4

Kaiden despised his 2003b42d51 mother for not a9793c2bcc maintaining her dignity 1c00e007e7 and mingling with 82c64cdc28 men, which was 1fcb0038f8 why Ella was de35e3e52a the only one 0937e7a8e1 who knew about 9d79bf66c9 this place.
