Lily stared daggers at Welma. She was holding a tray with just a jug of water and a cup. "Where are you coming from?" she asked. Lily didn't even try to hide the accusation in her tone.
Welma's eyes flickered to the tray before she responded. "Rose's room," Welma said with an unwavering smile. "The crown prince gave me orders. I don't think I should disclose exactly what those orders are."
Lily didn't believe her words, but there was no way to confirm if the woman was lying or not. "Very well," Lily answered coldly and stepped to the side to continue her journey.
Welma stepped to the side with her, blocking Lily's path, her smile still on her face. "What about you?" she said sweetly, glancing down at the tray again. "What are you doing with that? I don't think it's time for lunch just yet."
Lily gripped the tray tightly as she watched Welma look around. Lily knew exactly what Welma was doing. Not only was she questioning her, but Welma was also asking why she was alone.
