They had the feeling that a dream came true.
Christine was the only one upset to see Laura, the servants were super excited at Laura's arrival and there was a joyful atmosphere in the house.
Flowers in the vase were replaced with fresh new ones.
The floor was extra clean.
And they made a feast for their big guest.
The cook made the food taste better with her own secret ingredients.
Christine was unconscious of these changes, but Laura did.
When she and Max went to the garden, a young maid shyly asked for her autograph.
Because she was young, clean, and practical, Christine always kept her by her side.
She was responsible for some lighter tasks every day, such as cleaning Christine's room and organizing her cloakroom.
Laura looked at her and gave her the autograph.
Then she asked, "Don't you all hate me?"
The young maid paused at her words and immediately shook her head.
"Of course not, we all like you very much. I've seen every TV show you've ever been on. And you look stunning on TV."
Laura couldn't help but laugh outright.
"So I'm not stunning in real life?"
Hearing Laura's words, the young maid shook her head for fear that Laura would misunderstand her.
"No, you even look prettier in real life. It's true!"
The young maid nodded vigorously for fear that Laura wouldn't believe her words.
Laura made a joke, but she took it seriously. So she gave a chuckle of delight.
"Well, I was kidding! Thank you for your support."
Relieved, she left happily with Laura Davies's autograph.
Seeing this, Max felt a little jealous.
"Look, before you came, I was the center of their attention. Now, everything's changed. They like you more than me."
Laura raised her eyebrows and snorted, "Yeah! If I were not so likable, how would you, a playboy, marry me out of love?"
Max grinned wickedly, "Yes, you are right. No one can resist my pretty wife's charm.
While they were goofing around, Rowan came.
"Max! Laura!"
When they turned around, they saw Rowan standing behind them.
Laura blushed at the thought of what she just said.
"Rowan, right? Why are you here?"
Rowan smiled and scratched her hair awkwardly.
She looked at Laura with a smile, "I heard you were here with Max, so I came."
Then she paused for a moment and continued, "Laura, I love seeing you on TV! Can you take a picture with me and give me an autograph."
Laura was stunned.
She never thought this would happen.
Then she looked at Max in surprise.
"Of course," said Laura.
