He definitely understood her perfectly, drained by that conversation with the arrogant noble. Odette, finally after months, she felt like a weight had been lifted off her shoulders as her eyes became glossy from joy, needing a moment to calm herself as she closed her eyes. He took her hand into his, content to see her relieved and for once she did not flinch at the touch. Quite on the contrary, she returned it by giving his hand a squeeze. Happy to see her in such state, he said they should return home but she stopped him, asking for just one more day in Ishgard as she was still homesick and she wanted to enjoy it some more, adding that she had a craving for Ishgardian tea. He laughed but agreed and the two of them went to the Forgotten Knight. As they awaited their tea, Odette would warm up her frozen hands by the fireplace, joking that she had gotten spoiled by Thanalan weather. [[Tiamos Loren]] joined her by the fire and they got talking on a deeper level. She expressed her undying gratitude to him, calling him her guardian angel as he was always there for her no matter what and he never wanted anything in exchange. He explained that he always sought to do good no matter what, which is what he did all the time until he changed places, clearly suggesting that he wasn’t going to stay in Eorzea. It saddened her and she admitted that she did not wish to see him gone to which he replied that she would be long gone by the time he would leave. It shocked her to hear that as Elezen were one of the longest living races and it made no sense to her but she decided not to ask further. Instead, she pitied him, saying that it had to be hard to live on while loved ones grew old and withered away. He agreed and it was evident it hurt him as the man would begin to shed tears. She was quick to comfort him, hands moving to his shoulders, saying that she did treasure their friendship to matter if it was only a blink for him. He reassured her that she was not a blink to him, saying that she shone just as brightly as the other stars in his sky. It took her aback but she appreciated his words greatly. During this heartfelt conversation, he did say that he would not mind if she wanted to offer him more than just mere friendship. This statement hit her hard as she had never looked at him, or anyone for that matter, in a romantic way and it was a novelty to her. He did not pressure her, saying it was her decision but he was patient and willing to wait. He had always been anything but kind and supportive of her and she truly valued their friendship, but actually perceiving the man as a romantic interest was not easy but she wasn’t opposed to the idea, willing to open her mind and perhaps try a different approach. The two spent the rest of the evening sat by the fire, sat closely together as they both relaxed after the long and eventful day.

The next day, Odette did ask him to return home first as she did not want to arouse suspicions at the gates when leaving the city. She arrived alone and so did he; seeing them together could arouse suspicions. Especially if Zeauraut could be observing him without their knowledge. Although not content with the idea, he agreed and departed the city, leaving Odette alone to enjoy her one day at home. As Odette strolled down the streets of Ishgard alone, she felt nostalgic and perhaps a bit home sick, but she did enjoy the walk, taking in the sights and feeling like a child anew. Her feet brought her before the Forgotten Knight again and while she pondered whether to go in or not, she spotted a familiar and very unexpected face sitting by the fountain, immediately recognizing [[Sini'to Shadar]] after the events at the Sagolii Desert. The two exchanged a few words when man then spoke to them, making fun of Miqo'te behinds. Odette held back a laughter but as the two men continued their discussion, she couldn't hold back no more and burst into merry laughter. After some odd tug-o-war, they all went inside the Forgotten Knight to get away from the cold. Once inside, the Elezen man introduced himself as [[Valentin Vulaire]] and Odette introduced herself, leaving the last name out, and also her Miqo'te friend. [[Sini'to Shadar]] offered to get them all drinks and he soon came back with a large teapot and a few cups. As they all talked, enjoying the warmth compared to the freezing cold outside, another familiar face appeared, [[Maetiwyb Abylwaen]]. Odette greeted her warmly and urged her to join them at the table. She offered her cup to the woman, wanting to be cordial, and went over to the bar area to get herself a new one and there she met [[Simeon Sibaruse]], a fellow Highborn. While not very chatty, she invited him to join their table and he gladly obliged. His attention got quickly snatched by [[Sini'to Shadar]] as the two would engage in deep theology talks about Halone as well as the reasons behind the Miqo'te's decision to become a priest of the Fury. The discussion was rather hard and Odette merely listened, not wanting to intervene as they both appeared rather passionate about their beliefs. Odette went outside, cup in hand, wanting to check the weather. She slipped her gloves and hat back on and upon opening the door, she was still met with snow. She was about to go back inside but then [[Valentin Vulaire]] seemed to have followed her, so she stayed and they two exchanged a few words. He was quick to annoy her as he slid her hat over her eyes, and she decided to put it away, feeling that he would only do it again. Among the talk, he asked her why she no longer seemed to live in Ishgard, as she was definitely a Highborn; an element which was evident at mere glance. She wasn't about to talk openly about it on the streets of said city, and with a stranger, although he made it quite clear that he had no interest whatsoever of causing her issues. Putting her hat back on, she asked him to follow her and they moved to the walls of the Brume. With no one there, they could talk freely. She didn't go into the details but she did mention that she left her family for private matters, but that she came back because she heard her father was ill. But she was unable to approach the mansion, aware that the guards would recognize her immediately and that would've been a big problem. He seemed to feel for her and even offered assistance but she thanked him, aware that nothing could be done. Despite his kind-nature, he seemed to have some need to annoy people, or perhaps just her. [[Valentin Vulaire]] would get much too close to her, alarm bells going off in her head as he'd toy around with her, his fingers tracing along her chin and being dangerously close but she stood her ground. It got her absolutely flustered and he appeared to enjoy seeing her in such torment. Between the horrible teasing and earning a nickname 'petal' from him, he mentioned that he too was seeking to return to Thanalan so the two of them agreed to return together the following morning.

She arrived alone and so did he; seeing them together could arouse suspicions. Especially if Zeauraut could be observing him without their knowledge. Although not content with the idea, he agreed and departed the city, leaving Odette alone to enjoy her one day at home. As Odette strolled down the streets of Ishgard alone, she felt nostalgic and perhaps a bit home sick, but she did enjoy the walk, taking in the sights and feeling like a child anew. Wanting to somehow assist her family, she decided to have a look at the Atheneum Arcaneum and check if anyone knew anything more there. Luckily, no one recognized her but many faces were familiar to her, all apart from one. A lone man sat by the table, seemingly sucked in completely by a book he had laying before him. She took advantage of the fact that he was a stranger, aware that he would not recognize her identity. He ignored her completely but it was evident he knew something of the state of her father and she demanded to know. As he kept his answers brief and cold, she lost her nerves and gave away her name to the man, wanting to justify the reason why she wanted and needed to know the current state of her father. The man definitely did not appreciate the interruption and instead, he asked her how much she knew of aether manipulation. The query came as a shock but she confessed that she studied the arcane and so he put her to work with a book, asking her to copy all the lines referring to ice elemental aether. Odette has no words but feeling absolutely defeated she obliged and did as he instructed, transcribing the text. Once done, she gave it back to him and then he finally confessed that he was hired to assist in curing her father and that was what he was working on currently. It opened her eyes greatly and she immediately felt horrible for her reaction from before. She apologized to him and he added that her father was safe, informing her that he was going to get better. Ecstatic, she thanked him and asked for his name and he introduced himself as [[Cesar Boulon]]. Relieved, Odette left the place and her feet brought her before the Forgotten Knight again and while she pondered whether to go in or not, she spotted a familiar and very unexpected face sitting by the fountain, immediately recognizing [[Sini'to Shadar]] after the events at the Sagolii Desert.

Morning came and as agreed, she met with [[Valentin Vulaire]], the two heading towards the chocobo stables where they got a chocobo to share. They decided to have her take the lead and that they's switch halfway. All the time she could hear some loud metal clanking in his bag and when she asked him, he wouldn't answer, letting her guess but no matter what she said, it did not seem to be it. As they climbed onto the bird and made their way towards The Steps of Faith, Odette's enthusiasm dissipated and she explained to the man, recalling the night prior, that the guards cannot know who she really is. He just pat her shoulder, telling her t leave it to him. Sighing, she had little choice and agreed and they stepped forth. Two guards stopped them, one checking the chocobo while the other asked for their identities as well as their reason for leaving. [[Valentin Vulaire]] was quick to explain, stating that they were a married couple, presenting Odette as Odessa, and then he even recognized the guard, calling him Henry. Odette remained absolutely silent and shocked, not expecting that excuse, but it was a very good one she had to admit. Her 'husband' and Henry talked away, the guard asking him if he just got married to which he nodded, hugging Odette from behind to show the little affections that couples would share. She wanted nothing more than to slap him but she played along, remaining silent. The guard was quick to let them go and once they were at a safe distance, she did question [[Valentin Vulaire]]'s relationship with the guard. He explained that they used to study together but that he deemed the guy an imbecile. During the ride across Coerthas, he would tease her here and there and she somehow managed to survive that as eventually his focus turned elsewhere, to some sort of bronze statue he was carrying with him. As they reached the Shroud, out of nowhere he seemed to get some idea about the statue and in the fervor of the moment, he kissed her cheek, hopping off the chocobo to run to a nearby pond. She was absolutely perplexed and she parked the bird, quickly following him in worry. As she observed, he first dipped the statue into the water as it almost froze around him. He noticed it did no good so he took out a pan from his bag and then placed the statue in it before setting it on fire. Odette just gawked absolutely speechless and confused by the entire scene but she did not interfere. The statue changed appearance into that of Thal, the ruler of the underworld. The Elezen then explained that he was investigation a cult which was interested in summoning primals and that this statue was a thing of theirs. As he would try to pick up the statue, he burned himself a bit so Odette scooted the figurine into the cold watered with her boot, getting it out only once it had cooled down sufficiently. [[Valentin Vulaire]] would pat her head, perhaps thankful, while at the same time scratching at his bear, clearly annoyed by it. She chuckled and handed him a small pair of scissors and a pocket mirror of hers, and more jokes and teasing ensued as he tended to himself, later gluing himself to her and kissing her neck. When asked what he was doing, he simply stated that he was annoying her. He returned the scissors and mirror to her, mounting the chocobo as she would sit behind him, making certain to not fall off wrapping her arms around him. She was quick to doze off, lulled by his humming and the swaying of the bird as it ran across the forest. She came to once they reached Thanalan and she noticed a cut upon his cheek. Using her magicks, she healed the cut, content to be of some sort of help at least once. The teasing resumed regardless and she had to do her best to survive it until they would reach Ul'dah.

General

Odette Aveline Geneviève Celestria de Veaureaux, commonly referred to simply as "Odette", is a highborn noblewoman hailing from The Hole See of Ishgard.

With family roots stemming back millennia to form a very devoted household to the Theocracy, as well as being very traditional in it's beliefs, she lead a very secluded and controlled lifestyle. She followed her family in their wishes, having truly no choice in anything in her life. Years of being groomed to carry on the noble title with dignity while being the embodiment of a lady, she remained silent, unaware of the lands outside nor what freedom they offered. As her hand was given in marriage to a complete stranger from another noble house, she would slowly start to notice the cracks in her supposedly perfect lifestyle. As the doubts grew, so did her yearning to break away from her restrained lifestyle and family. It was then that a group of adventurers from Ul'dah assisted her in her escape.

In Ul'dah, with nowhere to go and confused by the completely new lands, she joined Aurora Eorzea, where they took great care of her, as well as sheltering her from her family who, no doubt, was searching for her. Her cooperation did not last long as she met a fellow Ishgardian nobleman who immediately gave her a deeper purpose in his company, wanting her to assist in the infirmary as well as healing the wounded at Raven's Heart. It came with a sense of home to serve under another Highborn and she took his offer gladly.

Personality

Genteel, calm and serene, Odette is the pillar of composure, grace and beauty. She always has something nice to say to everyone and will do it with utmost class, style and dignity, displaying her strict noble upbringing at all times as it is not something she can hide. Highly educated and always polite, she always refers to others on a formal basis, unless said person requests otherwise. Odette is extremely friendly to anyone and usually won't ever avoid people, unless given good reason to. She is unable to use slang words or curse words; a thing which simply doesn't click with her due to her childhood. She does not mind if others use slang or shorter versions of words, but heavy curse words will always ruffle up her feathers and she shuns such individuals. She is always very eloquent and elegant with her words as well as her mannerisms; an absolute lady in every aspect. She struggles to be more casual as well as to adapt to normal Eorzean life but she is willing to push herself to be able to mingle better with others.

She isn't one for violence and shall avoid it at all costs, always pushing for peace via diplomacy. Very articulate and smooth-spoken, she is able to often calm down situations as long as they do not require brute force. If there is some uproar or ruckus in the vicinity, she is one to avoid it, preferring not to even be involved.

Despite all her advantages, she is very easy to be lied to, as she is very trusting of strangers due to a naive nature. She is not used to teasing, flirting or even jokes and they always send her for a spin, unknowing how to react to them. She often blushes in embarrassment and would try to diffuse the situation, but most often she would end up merely embarrassing herself even further. She has no experience at all with normal interactions with others and she struggles to understand at times the meanings behind peoples' actions. Fretted by the touch of a butterfly's wing, ready to faint at the sound of a beetle or the rattling of a window pane at night, she is a very skittish person, easily startled if approached out of nowhere.

Appearance

Odetteappearance.png

Odette is a woman of absolute beauty and exemplar refinement, which is impossible to go unnoticed.

She has gorgeous golden blond locks, semi-tied into a braid reaching to her mid-back; only at times pinned up into a tight bun. A pair of stunning and brilliant big icy-blue eyes. At simple glance anyone can say that she is a noblewoman, her fingers untouched by manual labour and her skin unexposed to the sun, white almost like porcelain or the freshest milk.. She takes great care of her looks, often spending hours by the mirror, making sure that she is presentable for the day. As most her kind, she is fairly tall, however among her own people she would not be considered the tallest, standing at a good average height among Elezen. A slender and delicate build, she is the embodiment of feminine charm and elegance.

Being a noblewoman, she tends to wear long garbs or gowns, often decorated intricately with embroidery or gemstones which came to the floor. While most nolewomen wore colourful fabrics, her favourite dress is a simply pale blue Ishgardian gown, void of any elaborateness but padded from the inside with fur to keep her warm. Not one for jewelry, she only wears simple crystal earrings, not wanting any bracelets or necklaces as she feels they get too much in the way. With some attire, she also wears a pair of sheer-white gloves, most commonly used when meeting people and not doing anything which would entail dirtying her hands. For footwear, she always wears her favourite pair of white, thigh-high Ishgardian boots. Odette was not one to wear headpieces but when cold, she would wear a pale blue cap with a small veil at the back which she would often keep at the front to shield her face.

Lately she started to try and dress much more casual and common, pairing her own attire with some more everyday pieces of clothing. Trousers started to make way into her wardrobe as well as simpler blouses and shirts. But no matter what she wore, her noble upbringing was always evident at first glance, if not even just by how much care she took of herself.

Occupation

Astrologyodette.png

Being a noble and the youngest of the family, Odette had no job or occupation, other than studying. She is very highly educated, especially in all sorts of literature and teachings. Manners and etiquette were of prime importance, including how to curtsy and how to mix with the greatest nobles in Ishgard. Time would be spent learning how to dance and ride. Some housewifely duties such as preserving fruits, sewing, embroidery and household management were also taught, to prepare her for her duties as a married woman. Expecting her to run the household in the possibility of the absence of her husband to be, it was imperative that she be literate and have reasonable mathematical skills so that she might run these with efficiency and be able to check whether her household costings seemed reasonable. She was taught to read, write, tell stories, read romances and judge the merits of poetry. Her favourite were leisure romances and poems as well as holy scriptures. She often undertook singing lessons and was instructed in multiple musical instruments. Her spiritual education was critical being Ishgardian, and she would be extremely devout to Halone like most noble families.

Aside from her noble upbringing, she also learned the art of astromancy which came at a very early age, as her parents would send her daily to the Atheneum Arcaneum to study with the elders. They only saw fit that she learned to channel her Aether in a useful way, and being a trouble-maker as a child, it was a good activity to keep her mind busy from all her other studies which were dull to her. Odette enjoyed greatly reading the night sky and its constellations, and was an ace student. She mastered the skill of foresight and would learn to wield the magicks of the stars in her hands as she got to hold her very first star globe. She has never applied her skills in combat and has no experience outside of normal use as she specialized in healing magicks. At the behest of Corvinoix Heinsrich, she was put in charge of tending to the wounded during missions as well as afterwards in the infirmary. She made it her priority, making certain that they were stocked up on all medical supplies and she even took pride in her newly found job, wanting to assist people as best as she could.

Combat

Odette has absolutely no experience in battle, only having been exposed once to a mission and she did not enjoy it one bit.

Being a noblewoman, she has no endurance or stamina to show for, nor strength for that matter. While not a fighter, she does offer a supportive role as a healer and helper to her companions, putting their safety and needs above her own at times. She utilizes her natural Duskwight assets of a very acute sense of hearing as well as her eyesight in the dark.

She was offered to be taught the ways of the dragoon by Corvinoix Heinsrich but she rejected it, unable to bring herself to hurt another person no matter the circumstance. She prefers to offer succor to people, and not inflict pain. he respected her decision; however, she did turn towards firearms after burying one off Varriz Relanah. As a young lady back in Ishgard she was taught to use them, as the Skysteel Manufactory was renowned and the family deemed it a fitting weapon, elegant and not requiring physical confrontation.

However, when put under extreme pressure or when someone is in danger, she can surprise all those around her, even herself, by showing incredible bravery, most likely fueled through adrenaline. On one occasion needing to reach a device at the bottom of a crate filled with poison oozing-worms; she took off her shirt and wrapped her arm in it to reach inside and obtain the device to complete the mission. Her devotion is unquestionable and even if she does not enjoy being on the front-lines, she is definitely an asset to any team.

Family

Asoix Veaureaux (57)

The head of the family and father of Odette and Clauvort. A powerful man of high standing, not taking 'no' for an answer under no circumstances. He was never close to anyone in his family as he was more of a leader than a father or husband; distant and unattainable to anyone. Odette never saw him as more than the leader of their family and never had any relationship with the man.

Jucette Veaureaux (53)

Jucette is Odette's mother; a kind and genteel woman, much like her. Everyone would say that Odette was the exact copy of her mother, only younger. Odette was always a mother's girl and she adored spending time with her, until slowly noble life would catch up and duties called as well as her studies and the two drifted apart fairly quickly. Her mother wanted to see nothing more but to have Odette grow into a beautiful and distinguished woman, at the same time, ignoring the girl's happiness.

Clauvort Veaureaux (29)

Odette's older brother and future head of the Veaureaux family. He is head-strong and has all the characteristics to be a marvelous leader, however, he lacks open-mindedness and treats things as they are seen, which she sees as a great fault. He is confident, at times even arrogant about his position, but he was always protective of his baby sister and the two grew up together to bond very closely despite their different ideals. After the disappearance of Odette, he was the most worried and would search for her frantically no matter what.

Zeauraut Traideux (29)

Her fiancee and betrothed whom she never had even met or seen. She had no desire to meet the man and instead she left Ishgard as their first meeting was to be at the altar during their marriage ceremony. Even if he might have been a good man, she did not want to take the risk. She did meet the man indirectly after she let Ishgard but getting to know his nature, she knew she made the right decision to leave. Prideful, arrogant and stuck-up, all qualities she despised.


Love Interests

Ferroux Quilmont (26)

A chance meeting at the Quicksand and this young but endearing fellow Ishgardian made a lasting impression on her. Workaholic and neglectful of himself, she did try to somehow ease it up on him but he seemed to be overworking himself to cover up his loneliness. When she expressed the desire to help him, he said that all he wanted was friends. It made her quite happy and she immediately offered her friendship to the man. While the two would have many odd and awkward moments, it was clear they got along perfectly. Despite only ever meeting twice, on the second encounter, he asked her out. Finding his charm irresistible and also relating to him on many levels, she agreed.

Valentin Vulaire (35)

Needing to return to Ishgard for private matters, she met the man at the Forgotten Knight together with some other familiar faces. The two separated from the group to talk in private and agreed to return to Thanalan the following day together. Odette quickly learned that she had to remain on her toes as the man was clearly trying to get on her nerves every chance he got. However when not being an arrogant pig, he was quite tender and kind to her, and this quality did warm her heart to him. While she may be feeling infatuation towards him, she is aware that he is not the right person for her. She tries to keep their interactions innocent, not wanting to convince herself that more can be of such a relation.

Varriz Relanah (??)

Visiting Ul'dah for some down-time, she ran into this Moonkeeper at the restaurant area at the airship landing. A chance meeting but the two seemed to get along quite well despite his teasing and constant compliments which would get her rather embarrassed. He expressed great interest in showing her around Thanalan once he learned that she was a foreigner and she gladly took him up on the offer. His silver tongue and outgoing personality definitely piqued her interest.


Friends

Corvinoix Heinsrich (44)

Fellow Highborn Ishgardian she met while attending a meet-up at The Sharlayan Institutional Team of Gridania. After a most pleasant talk, she soon got to join his company as a nurse and healer to the wounded at his behest; unable to turn down a fellow Ishgardian. While finding the man absolutely dashing and the walking epitome of a Highborn gentleman, it also worked against her feelings for the man as she refused to get herself involved with another noble. She remained at his side through thick and thin, truly grateful for his help and seeing him almost as an older brother figure which she missed.

Tiamos Loren (28)

A most peculiar man that she ran into at the Aurora Eorzea bar. The two continued to run into each other and even took part in combat together, always supporting one another. Despite finding the man odd and very secretive, she does value his support and friendship as well as his help. He assisted her in her times of need and would even watch over her when she was not aware of it like a guardian angel. During her trip to Ishgard, he did express his genuine interest in her while still being respectful and giving her all the time she needed to adjust. While not against it, Odette definitely is taking her time.

K'alayah Xiaan (??)

The main leader of Aurora Eorzea. K'alayah was always very caring and giving towards the Elezen, including making sure she was safe from her past during her stay at the residence. Odette was always confused by the Sunkeeper woman, as this one always expressed great interest in her, which ventured beyond mere friendship. Perplexed with the natures of flirting and even intimacy, Odette always struggled to keep up with her pace. The two women bonded very closely regardless. Over time however, the advances started to sour the entire atmosphere and Odette left, although still treasuring her friendship with the woman.

Vildola Fyth (??)

A Viera woman who also became a new member of Aurora Eorzea a few days after Odette joined. The two would converse together by the fire and they immediately noticed they had a lot in common, mostly the fact that both were foreigners in a completely new land. They joined forces, intent to learn as much as possible together and to adapt quickly to their new surroundings while at the same time becoming the closest of friends. As Odette decided to leave Aurora Eorzea, Vildola joined her and the two remained together no matter what was thrown at them.

Malrinn Nures (24)

Odette met this Au Ra at the Sharlayan Institute in the Lavender Beds and the two ladies did get along but it wasn't until two days later where they really got to bond at another outing. Despite their differences, they found lots of common ground and their friendship cemented even further as Malrinn discovered that Odette had never drank in her life and the night took a horrible turn, needing to escort the Elezen back home. While the night ended on a bad note, the chemistry was clear and Odette is very happy to call the woman her friend.


Acquaintances

Taluh'to Lanbatal (??)

Friendly Moonkeeper fellow who works as a hunter and chef at the Aurora Eorzea. She met him upon her first visit to the establishment and while they haven't spoken much, he always seemed to be very polite and understanding. Eager to learn about all the different races, she would at times ask him about Miqo'te's and he was always glad to offer assistance and explanations. The two grew closer as he even told her of his past and she did appreciate it.

Taahir Al-Nazar (??)

A merchant hailing from the Thanalan desert as well as the Captain of the navy belonging to Aurora Eorzea. He appeared to quite enjoy her presence and the two bonded some more over further talks, including him asking her on a dinner date. Never having been on one, she agreed, however, she had no intentions of getting romantically involved with anyone at the time. Despite the nice talks, and he even suggested that she offered her services in the infirmary, she still remained kind and close to the man.

Reyza Blackwater (??)

Meeting her at a small outing to the Mists at a restaurant, Odette was truly impressed by this Miqo'te, especially her eloquent and beautiful speech pattern. It quickly became apparent that the feeling was mutual and the two women got to talk quite a lot that night, genuinely enjoying each other's company as they both clearly stuck out from the crowds.

Kaida Higashikaze (??)

Foreigner much like herself but from the East, most likely a samurai. While he was very distant and quiet at first, he quickly warmed up to her presence ant the two enjoyed a very lively talk which at some point became a bit too personal for Odette and the man quickly apologized to her. Despite this, she still enjoys his company and is looking forward to meeting more often.

Arthain Garon (33)

Upon joining Raven's Heart, the Au Ra was the very first person she met there and the two of them discovered that they had more in common than they had thought despite their historical differences. They were both healers and they looked forward to working alongside each other in the coming days; as well as reading books as that was a love they shared.

Pishrero Junerero (32)

Shrewd businessman originating from Ul'dah whom she met at the Quicksand. Direct but spot-on, the man could make out anyone within a matter of seconds, able to identify their needs and goals as well as educate them if necessary. She was truly amazed and admired this quality in the man although at the same time she found it rather intimidating. It was clear that he was into forming business relationships, thus, he saw no particular benefit in befriending her and she understood it.

Cesar Boulon (??)


Enemies
