“Lord Kendall, how...expected.” She grinned. A mostly white cat sidled up beside her and wound itself about her legs. He glanced at the animal.
“This is Simon,” she explained.
“Uh...” He ducked briefly then straightened. What the devil was he doing? Greeting the animal? Dear Lord, he was more addled than he realized.
“Oh he likes you.” The cat brushed against his trousers, no doubt leaving a trail of white hair upon them.
“How is my niece?”
“Uh...”
“She is still currently employed at your house is she not?”
He scowled. “You know about that?”
“I know lots of things.” She took his arm, giving him little opportunity to refuse. “Eleanor is through here, but she is a little delicate, hence why I am greeting you. I wanted to warn you.” She met his gaze. “Though you seem a kindly sort of a man. No doubt you shall do well with her.”
He let his frown deepen. Kindly? He could not recall ever being described as that before. This family was all mad. It was the only explanation.
