Now after Emily came back from her friend's ball, the days come and go as usual. She wasn't particularly bothered by it too much. In fact, she felt much better that way. Except that she had an ominous feeling about today. While she was busy sewing clothes for her customer, several knocks came to her door. "Coming." She answered before walking towards the door.Thinking that it was another customer demanding for their dress. What she did not expect is Mr Barrington standing in front of her. "Mr Barrington." She breathed. "It's a pleasure seeing you again. How may I help you?"

"No,the pleasure is all mine Miss Hamilton." He gave her his most charming smile that would make any girl swoon over him but not Emily. She wasn't interested in falling in love again. "May I come in?" He asked. "Sure." She said calmly and moved away from the door to allow him in.

When Alfred entered the house, the first thought that conjured in his mind was this white house is a little too small. He moved in to inspect further but stopped when Emily turned to face him. " Do you need anything? Maybe you need me to make you a waistcoat? Or-"She stop talking when he raised up his hand.

"I do not need anything, I just come here to pay you a visit. How are you today?" He grinned. Somehow, when he smiled she felt like she had seen him before somewhere long time ago but brushed it off not wanting to recollect  the past. "Fine thank you." She gave him a reluctant smile as she does not like people coming into her house while she was working. "If you need anything else, find me in my working room. As you can see.." She gestured towards her pale peach dress. Her hair was pinned messily and beads of perspiration can be seen on her forehead. Though the house was fill with a range of clothes and clothing materials,  but it was still tidy as everything were arranged orderly.

"I am busy working here. Mrs Dudson has been asking me for her dress. She needed it urgently for her friend's upcoming event." She stated bluntly.

"I see.. I'm sorry for interrupting you. I'll be leaving now and see you again." He smiled. "Have a good day Mr Barrington." He stopped short of opening the brass doorknob halfway and he turned to his back. "Call me Alfred. I don't like my friends calling me that way."

"I see...Well then, have a nice day...Alfred."She hesitated calling his name because she felt she is not really that close with him. She don't even know who he really is. "Good." He gave her a small smile before moving away and got into his carriage. She sighed and continue her work.

Darren's mood has grown darker than before. He actually wanted to see Emily today but he stopped when he saw a man stood before Emily's door with a longing look. Not wanting to stand there any longer, he stomped away with Gerard trailing behind him.Gerard glance at his master's direction just now and saw a man and a woman exchanging pleasantries. He was confused with his master's action but he remained quiet all the way back home to his mansion.

"Gerard!" He shouted angrily. "Yes milord." He hurriedly moved closer to his master's side. "I need you to prepare a carriage for me later in the night. To Lorelei."  The instant he heard the name of the place, he knew exactly his master is in need to satisfy a man's urge. Especially a person like him, a rake would love to go there most of the time. "Yes milord." He said before walking away from his master.
