Dr. Bishop had Mr. Slade over for discussion of the condition of one of his “associates” and giving suggestions of surgeons in the Mayfair area. 

Helena walked in to see who was the guest. After a nod, she took a seat beside her father. He moved a package over to her so she can see what is in the package any who is it from.

"You got a package for me?" She asked her father and Mr. Slade. Reuben Slade

DECISIONS OUT OF FEAR.
ONLY OUT OF SPITE.

There were not many that Slade would count among his closest friends but those that he did consider as such, he was completely devoted to . . . as they were to him. One of his friends had gotten injured and fortunately for them, it was not the kind that would arouse suspicion. It had been an accident but one that required immediate assistance.

Though Slade supposed that it perhaps was easier to blame someone . . . for then he could avenge them. But on the other hand, it spared his friend from the risk of an investigation so for that, they could be grateful and his dear friend could recover in peace. Slade had quickly learned that Bishop was a popular choice of physicians among the ton, having heard positive feedback about him. After all, Rueben would not hire just anyone to heal someone he cared about. He wanted nothing but the best.

Rueben listened and easily committed to memory the names that Bishop had offered to him in the way of skilled surgeons. Slade would have to do his quick research to find out which was the best. At that moment, a woman entered the room and seated herself next to her father. Raised a gentleman, Slade of course knew the expectation to rise when a woman entered their presence. However, he did not. And many did not question it for all it took was a single glance of his cane for them to immediately understand, and silently assure him that he need not trouble himself.

Rueben loathed sympathy gained for his permanent limp . . . but in situations such as these where he could not be bothered to stand, it worked well in his favour. He did give a short nod of acknowledgement to her, looking at her as she questioned the package. "Payment," he explained. "For your father's services." It was far more than the expected amount, but Rueben spared no expense when it came to the care of his dearest friends. And he did presume that this was Bishop's daughter. In Slade's research of the man he had learned that Bishop had but one daughter . . . she must be it.

Helena noticed Mr. Slade’s cane. A part of her want to ask how it came
about. One glance of him indicates it’s not a good idea to ask. The man has a mysterious aura that is both dangerous and amusing.

She gave a quick nod back giving her father a kiss on the cheek. 

“I’m going to take a small walk around town. I won’t be home too late, Papa.” With that, Helena gave one more nod to Mr. Slade and head into nearby Regent’s Park. Reuben Slade
