Amelia stayed in the room next to Lila. As it was time for lunch, going to the hot spring was delayed until the afternoon.
The room was a suite. Lila sat on the couch in the living hall and watched Kieran deal with the stuff inside the luggage. When he took out her undergarments, she jumped up. "I can deal with my belongings."
Kieran chuckled. "I'll have to unpack your luggage in the future too. You should get used to it soon."
Although he said that, he still allowed Lila to take away her stuff. After she was done, he asked, "Should we have lunch alone later or have it together with other people?"
"I'll see if Ame is done unpacking. Even though she was invited by Landon and is familiar with other people, if we're around, she'll probably stay with us. But just in case, I should ask her."
Lila got up and was about to walk out of the room. The room they stayed in happened to be a corner. When she got out of the room, she heard a few familiar voices.
"Let me say this again. Know your status. Stop caring about what I do. If you tell the family, you're doomed! Stop annoying me and get lost!"
Lila frowned. When she heard that, she noticed that it seemed to be Andy's voice. The argument was happening in the other corner. It seemed that Andy was arguing with Faith.
Lila halted in her footsteps but didn't walk toward there. Instead, she turned and knocked on Amelia's room door. When the door opened, the argument was still happening.
"I'm not caring about your interests. Uncle Harrison told me to tell you to go back." Faith's voice wasn't loud, but it was cold.
"Why do you obey him so much? If he tells you to die, will you die?"
"I'm the next head of the Moore family. If you want to please anyone, you should please me instead of those old people at home. Do you understand? Now, move aside!"
Thus, Andy could argue with Faith in public, and Harrison could reprimand her however he wanted. Andy glared at her, warning her.
After that, Andy walked over to Amelia's room. He still remembered Kieran's five glasses of alcohol clearly.
"Open the door. Lila, open the door! Do you think you'll be fine if you hide inside? You came out alone today, so you can't act arrogantly? Why are you hiding upon seeing me?"
Faith came over and pulled Andy away. "Can you calm down? Do you not understand Mr. Morgan's warning?"
"Kieran isn't around today. Stop annoying me! I'll make her pay the price for humiliating me that day!"
Faith had a headache. If Kieran wasn't around, would he not find out about it? What an idiot! What did the Moore family see in Andy?
