The Spencer Estate.
In less than an hour, Riley had fully moved in. The house had everything she could possibly need. Daphne had already prepared a complete wardrobe for both her and Alora, so she barely had to pack anything from The Grand Regency.
Daphne was in the nursery, eagerly learning how to coax Alora to sleep. She declared that from now on, she and Mrs. Gable would share the joy of taking care of the baby.
Since Winona usually stayed in the dorms at school, the moment she heard Riley had moved in, she immediately had her driver bring her home. Clinging to Riley's arm, she announced, "I'm not staying at school anymore. I'm moving back home to be with you."
Riley smiled. "Your school is so far away. Commuting every day will be exhausting. Just come home occasionally. Your studies should be your priority. We have plenty of time ahead of us."
"Fine, I guess."
The two sisters chatted for a long time before Winona finally went back to her room.
During the move, Sebastian had called, but Riley had been too busy to talk and quickly hung up. Now that she finally had a moment, she dialed his number. "Are you moved in?"
The man's deep, unmistakable voice resonated through the phone.
"Yeah. It's around 10 AM where you are, right? Are you busy?"
"I always have time to take your call. Why the sudden move?"
Riley gave him a brief rundown of Beatrice's unexpected visit. "...It's just safer to stay here."
"Good call. Did everything go smoothly in Riverport?"
"Very smoothly. I've got the new registration papers. I'll find time tomorrow to go to the police station and legally change my name."
"Good."
"When are you coming back?"
"Miss me?"
Riley openly admitted it. "Yeah, I miss you."
A low, pleasant chuckle came through the line. "Tomorrow."

Update please...
Its better when the female lead is strong. Nothing worse then reading a story with a weak main character...
