Donald smiled, “Why, aunt, you’re being quite accommodating after learning that your husband was not the true laird and heir of the Kinnaird clan. Ye may be able tae stay even longer.”

Donald walked off, and William and Fiona whispered to one another. “I will speak to the parish minister. Would you please visit the Parker cottage on the morrow and see how they fare?” Fiona asked.

“Aye.” William rubbed his beard. “Lady Browne asked me to help with sending her belongings to the cottage along with her lady’s maid. I will go meself.”

Fiona smiled for a moment. “Did she? Well, she must put great faith in you, then. She is a lovely young woman.”

William’s mind seemed to be thinking of another subject, but he replied, “Aye,” before clearing his throat and changing the subject. “I will stay the night as well. The young bastard will not know of my presence. I donnae want tae leave ye alone.”

“Thank you, William. Good night. We will need our rest to find our vengeance.”
