"You should return now. We'll need time to discuss some… important matters," The black-haired woman spoke softly to Eris's maid.
Then she turned to Lucian with a warm smile, "Please, come inside."
Lucian had a smirk on his handsome face as he said to Eris's maid, "Go back, and tell mother-in-law that I will see her tomorrow."
Despite her reluctance, Eris's maid could only bow deeply as the door closed quietly behind them.
As Lucian entered, he noticed that the interior was decorated with luxurious furnitures. There were paintings of mountains and Spiritual Beasts on the walls.
Incense burned in a corner, filling the air with the scent of sandalwood.
"So what do you want to talk about, Sixth Highness? Is it related to the Fifth Prince?" Lucian asked directly.
She stood in the middle of the room, her back facing him.
She didn't say anything, just stared at the wall ahead where a painting of a fierce dragon soared through clouds.
