"So, you'll be leaving soon?" Noah asked.
"Yes. We can visit you, but we can't stay at the academy. Since you're doing perfectly fine, we can return home without worrying," his mother replied with a gentle smile.
"Yes, you're not just fine. You're looking way too happy," Nathan added with a chuckle.
"Well, I won't deny that..." Noah smiled before hesitating. "But... can't we at least have dinner together? Perhaps Lady Akari could join us."
Julian and Catelyn exchanged glances before looking back at their son.
"We'd certainly like to have dinner with her and have a long conversation," Julian replied. "However, I don't think this is the right time. It would be better to invite her to our estate for a few days. That way, we can get to know each other properly and have plenty of time to talk."
Noah's eyes widened slightly.
"Yes, you're right."
