*******
I had kept silent in my bedroom.
Sir Vitor had quietly offered his hand to walk me inside. And I could tell he was intending to stay with me inside until Paige came around. But she timely arrived with the awaited tea that was not necessary anymore.
She was confused to see me at my door, but taking advantage of her confusion, I asked her in my notes to leave the tea inside and instead made sure Vitor was alright since… Theressa had acted violently against him.
[ I am sorry, Sir Vitor. For making you experience this. ] — I had written to him in apology for what had happened.
"... Go calmly, Lady Marianne." — It was all he said... Yet I felt grateful somehow at his wording.
In the end, I went inside alone since Paige followed my request. I heard her tell Sir Vitor to let her see his face and, even though they were little scratches and some hits he received, I was really glad that she still went to get things to treat it, as little as it was.
