The butler, like others in the household, typically worked from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. However, since they lived in the villa, they were available to work overtime if needed. The master of the house ensured they were well-compensated for any extra hours, and bonuses often exceeded their base salary, making the work worthwhile.
“Good morning, butler. I couldn’t sleep, so I thought I’d go for a walk. I’m not hungry yet, so I’ll have breakfast with your eldest young lady when she gets up,” Serenity said.
The butler smiled and reminded her, “Ma’am York, be sure to wear an extra coat. The morning dew is heavy, and it’s chilly outside.”
Serenity nodded, “I’ve got an extra coat on.”
“Please be careful during your walk, and come back when it gets light. Our eldest young lady usually wakes up at dawn.”
“I will,” Serenity assured him.
The butler saw her to the door, watching as she walked down the stairs before returning inside.
The villa was still quiet, with the street lights in the yard illuminating the early morning darkness. They would automatically switch off when daylight came. FC Manor was large, much like Wildridge Manor. Serenity had visited several times and was familiar with the grounds. She walked through the front yard and into the backyard.
There, she encountered Tim, who was out for his morning jog. He smiled as he greeted her, “Ms. York.”
“Tim, you’re up early for a jog!”
Tim nodded, “I start every day with a morning run. Afterward, I take a hot bath, have breakfast, and head to work.”

I like the fact that no longer how long a setting is dwelt on,still no character is forgotten in other plot and that there is closure on all the characters.Yes, a bit of inconsistencies but all in all, enthralling....
