In a few moments Ruby came out with the iced tea and water, giving Jackie the sugar. "Your orders should be out in a few more minutes. So...I noticed your father isn't around. Where'd he go?" Ruby asked curiously as Jackie pours some sugar into the tea and stirring it.
"He got invited to the Palace. He's being Knighted as he doesn't want any part in politics so, the royals came up with a different plan, and even papa knows that it would be silly to deny the royals their chance to publicly thank their own personal Midas for bringing prosperity to the town. So he left earlier this morning." She said answering the question honestly not minding that Raphael was there listening. She then took a sip of the tea making sure the sugar was to her liking and smiles. She enjoyed a good glass of cold tea with sugar on a nice warm day like today. Ruby left them alone after a moment and having gotten her message that the food was almost ready delivered and her curiosity assuaged.
