Chapter 673 - Greetings, Masters Favored Pupil

Chapter 673 - Greetings, Master's Favored Pupil

With everyone's eyes fixed on the carriage whose door was opened once again.

Raylene and Trisha, along with the two butlers were waiting to see who it was but Yvonne had already realized who it could be.

The moment those doors were pushed open, an aura she had recognized was exactly what she had felt.

However, there was another with which she had never come in contact before.

While they gazed at the carriage, two figures finally made their appearance.

One pounced onto the ground while the other flew right into the sky.

Yvonne's eyes first fell on the figure on the ground, a slim figure covered in thick and bushy red fur came into sight.

"Hello, Rouge." She smiled at the red fox she had met in the past.

When she had visited the Tanner mansion in the past, this was the etcher she had met there, the one fated to the heir of the Tanner family.

Rouge's golden foxy eyes gazed at her before a smile formed on the etcher's face.

'Ah!' Yvonne squealed in her heart as she loved to see the smiling face of this little fox.

Rouge was still young and had not yet grown up entirely, thus she appeared like a cute little stuffed toy, characterizing a cheerful red fox when she smiled.

Yvonne, particularly, loved this smile of Rouge's and had wished to see more of it but had not gotten the chance to meet the etcher too often in past times.

Therefore, seeing Rouge here today was a blessing in disguise.

However, this pleasant sight wasn't too pleasing to someone, and that someone was none other than Demon who seemed to be burning in hot lava of jealousy as he watched his Master smiling at the other etcher.

Etchers by nature were possessive and right now, Demon was feeling the full extent of their innate nature.

'Master, the intruder!' He reminded her that she was being too friendly with the intruder.

This warning made Yvonne chuckle as Rouge wasn't the intruder at all.

"Demon, Fryght, meet Rouge. She's Young Master Topher's etcher so be civil." She introduced and warned them at the same time.

Fryght scoffed at her as he did not have to pay heed to her words as his only job was to keep her safe in the absence of his master.

Other matters, he did not have to listen to her orders so he chose to continue being hostile and ignore the words of the little girl.

On the other hand, Demon could never do such a thing.

Thus, disgruntled as he was, he nodded his head in answer to her words, promising to abide by them.

Rouge familiarized herself with the two etchers before she stepped towards her master and stood by his side.

Now that introductions were done, Yvonne finally recalled that a second figure had come out of the carriage earlier.

'Who was that?' She frowned and glanced around to find where it had gone.

'Master, behind you.' Demon came to her aid as he revealed the location of the second figure that had appeared.

Following his words, Yvonne turned around, and what she found widened her eyes.

Behind her stood the man who had spent the last two hours nagging her to no end.

However, her attention wasn't on the Marquess but the figure seated on his shoulder.

"Greetings, Master's favorite pupil." A cute voice was heard coming from the same figure.

Yvonne's widened eyes leaped in surprise while the two ladies gushed over how adorable the voice sounded.

"Isn't she the smartest?" Marquess Samed's proud voice broke them from their enamored trance, making them look at him.

Yvonne rolled her eyes at the smug look on her tutor's face before focusing on the source of the earlier voice.

"Meet my etcher, Keira." He introduced the identity of the figure on his shoulder.

The little girl's jaw dropped in shock that her tutor had finally found his fated etcher.

"A Raven?" She muttered while gazing at the bird perched on him.

A thick black beak which was the same shade as the dark feathers that covered the bird's body was what she found.

However, while the entire body was covered in black, Keira, the raven's eyes were a beautiful shade of pink, resembling exquisite diamonds of the same hue.

"That's right, Master's favored pupil. Keira is a raven from the Corvid family of birds." The etcher spoke, but not in her mind through the link between two etchers.

Keira's voice was loud and clear, heard by everyone present here.

Looking for an explanation for this strange yet marvelous feat, the little child gazed at her tutor.

"Keira imitates what she hears and learns at a much faster pace than a child." Marquess Samed revealed the brilliant ability of the etcher who was fated to him.

Yvonne and the ladies were stunned as every etcher they had met until now did not have the ability to talk out loud but this one had.

"Why does she keep calling me that?" The child inquired, unhappy with the name being used to address her.

"You are Master's favored pupil so I will call you what my Master sees fit." Keira was the one who replied to Yvonne's query, making the others chuckle at her witty response.

Marquess Samed gave his nod of approval, proud and pleased with his etcher whom he had finally found after such a long time.

Yvonne rolled her eyes at the bird who, in the next moment, imitated her and rolled her pink eyes right back at her.

Jax and Topher let out a chortle at this sight which did not go unnoticed by the little girl.

Glaring at her butler, she managed to silence him but could not do the same to Topher who did not care about her glare as it did not affect him in the least bit.

However, he could not continue laughing at her and hence stopped soon after.

"Miss Yvonne, shall we take a walk?" Topher proposed while looking at her.

Yvonne did not answer him right away but scanned his expressions to examine what he was trying to achieve here.

Earlier, she had assumed that he was here to deliver the Duchess's letter to her mother but soon realized that this task could have been handed over to any servant and they would have done the same.

The heir of the Tanner family did not have to come all the way here just to pass a letter to the Countess.

This made Yvonne believe that he had some other motive for making an appearance here in her estate.

Curious to know what it was, the child glanced at her mother who smiled at her, indicating her acquiescence.

Only then did the little girl nod at the young heir, agreeing to the proposal he had made.

However, before she could leave, Marquess Samed, the other person here, had something to say.

"I will stick around till you get back." He announced before the two children could leave.

His nephew's arrival had piqued his interest and he was curious to see what that sly child was up to.

Thus, without waiting for an invitation, the shameless Marquess revealed that he would be waiting for them to return.

Countess Raylene could not send him away right after he had made his intentions known to them so she nodded with a smile, officially asking him to stay back for lunch with the rest of the family.

"Howie should be back with the boys so why don't we all have lunch together?" She added and Marquess Samed was more than happy to oblige.

Topher shook his head at his uncle's wayward ways before gratefully accepting the Countess's kind gesture.

On the other hand, Yvonne shot a scornful gaze at her tutor who was only doing so to obtain some gossip from them.

However, she too did not object to it as she was more than eager to know everything about Keira and how she had met this foolish tutor of hers.

Thus, once the Countess's plans had been accepted by everyone, the rest returned to the mansion while Topher stood before the little girl and the young butler who remained there with them.

Demon and Fryght were there too, indicating that they would not let the child go anywhere without them.

"Shall we?" Topher asked as he had no issue with the two beasts accompanying them on their walk.
