Chapter 164 - Family meeting

Meanwhile nick was merely thankful that he managed to convince the crowd of how he was capable of such extreme feats. 'something tells me that isn't even the slightest bit true.' bellania thought to herself. after clearing up everything nick and bellania left the area heading further along the street until they reach the part of the city where the nobles resided. it was easy to tell where the area started since the building immediately improved in both quality and size. in the previous area the buildings were made mostly of wood or other inexpensive materials while in this area the buildings were made of precisely cut stone bricks and rare wood such as white oak. what surprised nick the most however was that unlike most large cities hes been to this one didn't have a wall between the noble area and the commoner areas meaning that anyone could go anywhere they wished in this city freely. nick and bellania continued through the noble area however unlike in the other areas nick noticed that the other noble all greeted bellania respectfully when they saw her which made him think she is actually more important than she let on.

Soon the two arrived at a gated Victorian style mansion where on the gate the hartfell family crest stood for all to see. the gate keeper opened the gate immediately when he noticed bellania allowing the two inside before closing the gate behind them "welcome back young lady bellania and greetings young sir mark it is a p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e for this servant to make your acquaintance." the gate keeper said respectfully. "likewise sir." nick responded politely. after that brief exchange nick and bellania walked to the front door of the mansion which was suddenly pushed open and a woman jumped out and clung to bellania who cried out in distress. "mom stop you're embarrassing me!" she said angrily. the woman ignored her daughters distressed complaints was she showered her in affection. nick felt a pang of heartache when watching this scene as he remembers the strong but kind woman who raised him in this world and how she was no longer around along with his stern but caring father. nick quickly hardened his heart and suppressed his heartache as it does him no good. the woman finally released bellania after a few moments before turning towards nick.

"You must be the mark my daughter has spoken about a p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e to meet you I'm her mother Victoria." the woman said with a slight curtsy. nick bowed as courtesy dictated "i am indeed mark though i am quite interested to know what your daughter has said about me if its not to much trouble." he said politely. bellania knew that if her mother told nick what she said that he was definitely going to set the record straight so she intervened. "mother could you be so kind as to have the kitchen prepare a nice lunch while i show mark around?" she asked sweetly. Victoria immediately forgot what nick said and smiled at her daughter "of course sweetie is there anything in particular they should prepare?" she asked with a gentle smile. bellania shook her head "have them surprise us." she said simply. victoria nodded before walking away while humming some tune nick didn't recognize.
