last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56
Anastasia gave a worried glance to Alistair. The room was in chaos right now. Senior Philip keep on throwing a tantrums, Nicholas keep on asking questions while Lord Gilbert was complaining nonstop. The only one who was calmed as ever was Madame Leticia.

After the shocking revelation awhile ago, they decided to go back on the living room to have a proper talk. The Earl and Senior Philip decided to changed their clothes first before coming back–so they are fully dry now.

But as soon as everyone was settled on their seats, the chaos started.

"You–the both of you. I know you're the one who's responsible from all of this. Do something and take us out of this place." Lord Gilbert said while pointing at Anastasia and Alistair in accusation.

"What do you mean Lord Gilbert?" Earl Nicholas asked.

Anastasia was about to stop him when Madame Leticia did it for her.

"I think you need to stop right there, Lord Gilbert. You wouldn't want the consequences once you spilled everything that you know."
