What dilemma did you get yourselves into this time? Doctor Goldman asked directing piercing eyes at Rolland who was standing with his hands akimbo.

“I have no idea, he won't share or say anything to me, you know how he is. Rolland replied.”

How is he coming? Rolland asked.

“I have removed the bullet, but the wound unfortunately has been infected. It will take a while to heal but I have it under control.” Doctor Goldman said looking at Mills who was lying on the bed shirtless and sweating profusely.

He had to be moved into his father's chambers when they brought him in yestarnight because Gabby occupied his room, and god forbid they let the good lady get a glimpse of blood and probably suffer through trauma and seizures.

“I'll be away now to let him rest and be back every other hour to check the progress.”

“ Have a maid be at his side every moment just in case my attention is needed.” Doctor Goldman instructed Rolland before exiting the room.

    “There’s no one here sir, I searched every corner,” one of the guards announced.“Good for you son, but who is to say that you weren’t being followed here?

    It's Andrew, open up”, Andrew whispered from behind the door. Gabby walked over to the door smoothly and opened it swiftly. What's going on?” she asked wide-eyed at him.Andrew was fidgeting and unstable, he looked scared.“I have to get you out of here, if he finds you here, you're as good as dead. Come on,” a panicking Andrew said, trying to keep a bold demeanor.He grabbed her on her wrist and just as they were about to run down the stairs, the fast racing footsteps coming towards them on the stairs stopped them in their tracks. There was no way to bypass them. It was just a long hallway that led directly to the stairs.“Go, go, go back inside, hide but don't lock the door,” he said, shoving her back into the room.Gabby frantically removed everything in the room that may be a giveaway that she was in the room into the wardrobe before thinking of where to hide. She could hear arguments going on in the hallway and the voice of a crying girl. She heard the door next to hers open and

    It was late by the time Walter decided he had soothed his inner child enough and was ready to stop torturing everyone and go back to the mansion.Gabby was a mess, she was famished, tired, dirty, and hungry but she had just had the very best day of her entire life. On their way back to the mansion, she walked closer to Walter. As a person who could count the number of times she had smiled in her life, Walter had made her not just smile but laugh till her ribs hurt. Even now while they walked home with nothing but their torch to light the narrow way back to the mansion, he was still making dry jokes in the hopes of getting a chuckle or giggle out of her.“You have been so silent Andrew, are my jokes that dry? Why can't you be like the good lady Gabby over here and fake a smile or two, doctors say it is good for your health. Sometimes I think you should pay me for bringing some kind of color into your life,” Walter said to Andrew who held the torch ahead of Gabby while he followed car

    “When are we going to get there? Is it still a long way?”Gabby asked in a Walter who was matching effortlessly in front of her.“If you want, I can carry you on my shoulder or I’ll make Andrew do it,” Walter stopped in his tracks and turned to Gabby to tease her with a smile.“No thank you, I can walk very well on my own,” Gabby replied squinting her eyebrow at Walter and folding her arms across her bosom as a barrier to deter Walter from making do with his threat.“Hmm, I see you don’t like to be carried, but don’t ever say I didn’t do anything for you.” He said before he turned around and resumed on his way with Gabby behind him and Andrew following behind Gabby. They walked through a hilly path covered by tall green trees and bushes, birds could be heard chirping away on each of their sides, and the sun was beginning to sneak its way out of the sky but even Andrew began to grumble despite the serenity of their surroundings.“Ahh, look, we are here! Walter exclaimed, pointing down

    You must be starving,” Walter said as he noticed the way Gabby was downing the food.Gabby was embarrassed by his comment, thinking she must have been eating ravenously because that was how she normally ate until the whole etiquette thing with Mr Shepherd's maids started.“Am sorry, was I chewing loudly?”She asked, wiping her mouth with a tissue paper.It was just the both of them on the dining, Andrew was eating on one of the large chairs in the sitting room.“I mean, it’s not ladylike to chew like that, I get that you might be hungry so it okay,” Walter said chewing his food and smiling.Gabby became nervous and conscious of how she ate the remaining food and wondered why these rich men always wanted everything to be so controlled.“Am done eating, I feel heavy-eyed and would like to go to bed,” Gabby announced after she was done with her food.“So soon? Walter protested. “Come on stay a little while longer, I promise not to bore you at all, there’s this scary movie I like to watch
