Nettie's eyes widened a touch. "There's a library? Oh both would be delightful. But I shouldn't be greedy with your time." She smiled towards him as he seemed so very kind and Maxim was very handsome. His smile seemed to constantly reach his eyes.

She gave him a polite nod when he opened the door and stepped in. The place did smell delicious and she put a hand to her cheek. "Oh, I am so weak to tarts." She did have a slight sweet tooth. The display was mouth watering. When she looked to the voice, her smile faded a bit as the man there seemed to have something going on. She hoped his business was going well. Had his troubles been unrelated, she hoped things turned out for the best.

"Ah!" She blushed and shook her head quickly. "We've just met. Thank you though!" Her head turned to her new friend and she apologized quickly. "Anything would be fine. It all looks so good."
