Michael, the groom her father had recently hired, emerged from one of the stalls and hurried toward them.
"I will see you at dinner, Chastity,” Sir Stirling said.
“I will tell cook," she replied stiffly.
He shook his head. “You and your father are coming to Kinlochie Castle tonight."
"What? I have never heard of Kinlochie Castle. Is there a ball there?”
“Kinlochie Castle is my home here in Inverness. The place isn’t so grand as to host large balls. Never fear, you may host large parties at my estate in Lossiemouth.”
“My father said nothing to me of us dining away from Gledstone."
He flashed a smile. "I spoke with him this morning, before I came looking for you."
Her heart sank. So, her father knew she left before Stirling arrived. What difference did it make? Sir Stirling had been late. She was not obligated to await his convenience.
