Evelyn had attempted to wipe the tears from her blue eyes, but the tears would return as rapidly as they were wiped. When she felt distressed, upset, or anxious, she would usually push some of her blonde locks behind her ear. However, due to how her hair was braided, there weren't many attempts to do so. The whites of her eyes would soon fade to a slight red due to her tears irritating them.<br/><br/>At the manor, Jocelyn had noticed the change in Samuel's demeanor as she told her story. She knew it was evident by seeing the way he gripped his cane, and the harshness to his voice. She knew her father was insane, but no matter how insane he was, she still needed to show him respect. After all, he is her father, or rather, former father. He did disown her after all.<br/><br/>Although, Samuel was correct in saying that she would be better off without her father in her life. It was then that he had wrapped a blanket around her. It caused a small blush to creep onto her cheeks. He certainly seemed to be a gentleman with his actions. It was the words he spoke next that shocked her. He had offered her a job as one of his staff. While it wasn't midwife work, she wouldn't be homeless and she would have food. She wouldn't have to suffer in the harsh winter nights. However, there was only one condition to be had, and she was about to mention it.<br/><br/>"While I do appreciate the offer, I can only accept on the terms that Hunter stays too," she replied, "He can stay in my room and I'll make sure he isn't a bother to you or the other staffers. I couldn't bear to send him away, and the fact that he would attempt to sneak back into the manor would also be an issue I'm afraid." she remained as professional about this as she possibly could. Hunter was her family after all, even if he was simply a dog. Hunter looked up at Samuel with his large, brown eyes and begun to wag his tail.
