When going downstairs, lunch was already prepared, but those big boys hadn't had enough of playing and said they would eat later, leaving Elise Don with nothing to do and going for a stroll in the courtyard.
Coincidentally enough, Raydeep was also sitting under the shade of a tree, facing the distant mountains, alone, with a pot of tea, drinking by himself.
Elise Don felt a thump in her heart, she hadn't expected to bump into him here.
To Elise Don, Nathan Perry was like a father-in-law, and Raydeep was too; but for the latter, she might need to show even more respect.
Because Oliver Bloom cared.
Therefore, pretending not to see him and walking away seemed inappropriate. After a bit of mental struggle, Elise Don went over and asked, "Coach, would you like some more tea?"
Raydeep took off his sunglasses and squinted, evidently not quite at ease.
"Hmm... no need."
Alright then.
