                    Once I was ready, Mason and I went to the living room, but Delilah wasn't there.
"Grandma's probably in the backyard. Let's go," Mason said.
"Okay," I said.
We went out the back door to the yard, and sure enough, Delilah was watering a row of plants.
It was my first time in the backyard. The small yard was all neat and organized, split into little sections with at least a dozen different plants growing in them.
The plants Delilah was watering were pothos. Next to them were cacti, ivy and spider plants.
Behind her was a fancy greenhouse shaped like a castle. Its frame was all titanium alloy. It was strong but super expensive.
The walls and roof of the greenhouse were glass, polished so clearly that they sparkled. Through the glass, you could see it was full of colorful geraniums, petunias, lavender and more.
Such a lush, lively sight.
It made me feel good just looking at it. I ran over. "Morning, Delilah. Let me help."
Delilah said, "Oh, Kate, you're up so early? Why not sleep more? Young folks need their rest. No need to get up this early."
Nice as that sounded, I couldn't take it seriously. I smiled and said nothing, turning around to find something to do but not knowing where to start.
"Morning, Grandma," Mason said as he came over, smoothly taking the watering can from Delilah to water another small patch.
Delilah said, "Oh, stop that. I just watered that spot. You two don't need to bother. You'll only mess things up."
I let out a laugh. With how serious he looked, I thought he did this all the time. Turns out he was faking it. Though he did a pretty good job of it.
Delilah said, "Come on, let's head back. They should be coming down soon."
We got back to the living room and sure enough, Martin, Helen, Richard, and Joey were all there.
We said good morning in order of age. Joey pointedly skipped me, clearly still mad.
Delilah's face clouded over, about to scold her when Helen pinched Joey and said, "You silly girl, always so careless. Did you say good morning to Kate?"
Joey started to argue but saw Delilah looking unhappy. She reluctantly said to me, "Morning, Kate."
"Morning, Joey," I said.
I didn't ask her what time she got back last night, where she'd been, or how she returned. I just let yesterday's stuff go, pretended it never happened, and let it stay in the past.
I already have two tough enemies in the Knight family, and Joey was different from them. Even if I couldn't be friends with her, there was no need for me to make her an enemy.
We all went to the dining room for breakfast. Regular meals weren't like family dinners. They stuck to the "no talking at the table" rule. There were plenty of people, but not a sound was made.
After breakfast, I wanted to head back to my room to catch up on sleep.
It was the third day of our marriage, and I thought about going back to Gordon Villa.
But the Gordon family was all abroad, and none of them came to my wedding. Seems like there was no point in going.
I did want to go to Lane Villa to see my real parents. Ever since Richard almost found out what was going on last time, Mason had sent the whole Lane family away. I hadn't seen them since then.
But Mason never told me where he sent them. I asked twice, but he wouldn't say.
Of course, even if I knew where they lived, I wouldn't dare go over. I'd have to wait until everything was out in the open before I could go back for real.
So I had nothing to do today. I figured it'd be super laid-back.
I was just about to go upstairs to my room when Delilah called me. "Kate, wait. I need to talk to you." Helen was asked to stay too.
