Diana was grateful she'd had the mind to tell her family what she'd gone through yesterday before news broke throughout town about the incident she and Melody had been involved in. True to her assumptions, she knew they'd be upset that she'd made contact with Melody, however, Diana pointed out that she could have hardly helped it seeing as it was not pre-planned (it wasn't) and their arguments fell rather flat. Besides, Allegra had been receiving owls all day from relatives asking about Diana and Diana knew that Allegra thought this was only good seeing as it didn't paint Diana in too negative of a light.

She'd escaped danger there, but apparently it wasn't over yet. While in the drawing-room working on her embroidery their butler had come to tell her she had a visitor. Diana blinked, perplexed at show could be calling for her as opposed to contacting her mother, and so she followed Maxwell to the parlor. The fact that Maxwell stayed at the door as she entered gave her some clue as to who was calling.

Nevertheless, she was delightfully surprised to see a familiar figure waiting for her. "Mr. Abbott!" She exclaimed, knowing that Maxwell was simply waiting at the door until Mrs. Wellington arrived for her. "What a delightful and unexpected surprise." She knew Will knew his calling wasn't exactly proper, but that wasn't the worst transgression that had occurred in this house, so she knew the servants wouldn't balk too much.
