“Oh, indeed?” Alick nodded, gesturing towards Brayden as he addressed Lydia.
“So, is he your chosen groom?”

Hannah sneered, “It’s none of your concern and you can rest easy.

Alick exuded confidence.
“Miss Moore, you’re astute.
However, the intricacies of the Phillips family dynamics might elude you now but Iprehend them fully.
I have other matters to attend to, so I must take my leave now.
Miss Moore, I trust you can assist in convincing her,” Alick concluded, snuffing out his cigarette as he passed by Hannah.
