The Whispering Verses Chapter 2360: Maid’s Responsibilities
Chapter 2360 The Responsibility of the Maid
"Ahem."
Shad and Mr. Albert, who had just arrived at the door of the barn yard, happened to hear these last few words. The coroner showed no expression on his face, while Shad coughed:
"Although it's wrong for us to leave you here alone, you don't have to 'retaliate' against me like this, right?"
Mr. Bernhardt immediately turned his head and saw that both of them had returned safely, and then asked with a smile:
"Is it solved?"
"It's solved. That thing won't appear in Moon Bay for hundreds of years. No matter the Marquis, the captain or Mrs. Jude, they are all safe."
"Look."
Then Mr. Bernhardt turned to Mrs. Jude and said:
"Just tell us whether we can help you."
Xia De saw the lady's mouth trembled.
But Mrs. Jude was actually not that angry at Shade's cruelty just now. The evidence is that although she had been complaining to Mr. Bernhardt, when Shade appeared, she said nothing more.
Of course, there are reasons why they did solve the problem. As for whether he was grateful to them or afraid of them, Shade didn't know.
Mr. Bernhardt probably told her in detail about the characteristics of [Richard's Notes] just now, but she still asked Shade and Mr. Albert. After confirming that the thing really wouldn't come back, she patted her chest with an exaggerated gesture, and then solemnly thanked Shade for saving her.
But Shade still asked the question:
"Didn't you promise Miss Rice not to carry out your little hobby in the recent period?"
The four of them returned to the barn together, and the child was still sleeping soundly on the table. Mr. Bernhardt walked over and touched her neck. Mrs. Jude first said:
"She was just hypnotized by me and is now having a good dream."
Then he hesitated and said something that no one could understand, and finally bowed his head and admitted his mistake to the three of them:
"I won't hold you accountable for what you did to me tonight. How can I tell Miss Rice about this?"
The three looked at each other:
"This is not equivalence. The three of us have been in Yuewan recently, and we may visit your orphanage from time to time. If you suddenly visit one night and find that one or two people are missing from the children's beds, you will Don’t expect us to keep your secrets.”
"I understand that you three men are really boring, don't you know how to have mercy on me?"
No one of the three of them spoke, they just looked at her. Mrs. Jude bravely looked at them for a while, then nodded and lowered her head.
Anyway, the busy day that started this morning is finally over. Shade didn't even rush to find "Desire". After returning to the city, he said goodbye to Mr. Bernhardt and Mr. Albert, and then returned to Belindel Manor.
Because they were worried that Shade hadn't eaten yet, the girls in the manor were waiting for him to come back. The night was already very dark, so almost everyone was there, Miss Belindel, Luvia, Miss Elise, Miss Aurora, Miss Swift, Tifa, Miss Matilda, Emilia , Agelina.
Seeing Shade's tired look, they didn't rush to ask him what happened tonight.
"Go take a shower first, and have a hot meal after the shower. The supper will be ready soon. You can go and eat by yourself, let Matilda and Tifa serve you, and others will not disturb you."
The countess said softly, and Luvia gently hugged the cat that was acting coquettishly at Shade's feet:
"You must be exhausted this day, I will take care of little Mia first."
As she spoke, she handed it to Agelina who was standing aside. The little princess blinked, wondering what Luvia’s taking care of this cat had to do with her.
"After you finish eating, you can go home or rest here."
Miss Aurora also said, taking the long sword from Shade’s hand:
"Go take a shower and eat, have a good night's rest, and tell us what happened tomorrow."
After running around all day, Shade finally got a chance to rest. After taking a shower, a sumptuous dinner was already served in the restaurant. After Tifa and Miss Matilda placed the food, they did not disturb Shade anymore, but stood outside the ajar door of the restaurant.
Only Sha De is left at the long table covered with white tablecloth. Although it looks very deserted, it is just enough for Sha De to think carefully about what he did today and plan what consequences this matter will have. .
"He seemed troubled."
Two maid ladies in black and white maid skirts looked at Shade outside the door. Seeing that Shade was still frowning in thought even though he was eating, Miss Matilda said softly to Tifa.
Tifa pursed her lips and nodded:
"He is always like this, and it was the same when he was in Tobesk. He hides many things in his heart, and will not tell the ladies until they are really resolved."
After speaking, she looked at the blond maid aside. Matilda blinked doubtfully, and then heard the northern maid in front of her say seriously:
"When the master is troubled, just standing aside and sighing is not what a maid should do."
"So what should we do?"
She asked the head maid of the Duchess of the North.
"Can you lend me your card temporarily?"
"Of course."
After taking Matilda's hairpin, Tifa also took off her own hairpin, then opened the door and walked into the restaurant, then smoothly restored the door to a state where only a crack was left.
Xia De looked at the dark-haired girl with a good figure in confusion, not knowing what she was going to do. Then, he saw Tifa walking towards this side, using those hairpins to tie all her long black hair back, and even the hair on the side of her face was gathered up.
"What are you"
"Please continue eating, I just want to make you happy."
She squatted down slightly next to Shade, and then got under the table under the white tablecloth. Shade wanted to stop him but it was too late. He wanted to pull back the tablecloth and look down, but his hand was opened by the hand under the table:
"Please wait, me"
His face was flushed, and he was restlessly sitting at the dining table with his left hand holding a knife in his right hand, but at least the troubled and sad expression on his face was really gone.
Probably because his attention was distracted, Shade did not notice that his eyes never left the crack in the door. The blond maid from the South, who thought she could learn new "knowledge", grabbed the hem of her apron with nervous hands and looked at the scene in the restaurant with her eyes wide open and her face flushed:
"Oh, she, she actually"
In short, although the girls in the manor were very curious about how Shade's mood suddenly improved after eating a midnight snack, as long as he stopped worrying, the girls would not worry.
The night was already dark, and Xia De did not stay here longer. After tonight, it will be the Flower Moon of August. The arrival of the new January means that the black time key can be used again.
Long-haired Luvia reminded that Miss Isabella and the doomsday power from the past could be the key to facing the **** who swallowed the dragon. But Shade needs to make Miss Isabella accept the effect of the "Sting of Love", and he also needs to find a way to make Miss Isabella come to the "real world" again.
He has not yet thought about how to fulfill these two requirements, so the key is not suitable for use yet. Although he now has "Witch Reverberation: The Last Speaker - Isabella", the problem is that "she" said that the nature of this reverberation is special, and Shade cannot use the words of low-level sublimation to "space and time" The echo shook the sleeping power" and called her out.
"Why are you frowning again?"
After "dinner", when the ladies were saying goodbye to Shade, Luvia asked worriedly, Shade immediately shook his head:
"It's nothing. I can solve some minor problems myself."
"He's always like this."
Miss Aurora shook her head and was curious why the two head maids didn't come to say goodbye to Shade.
"Then I'll go back first and come here around nine or ten tomorrow morning."
He stood in the foyer of the manor house, turned the cat into a toy and put it away. After waving goodbye to them with a smile, he threw the glass slipper and disappeared.
The girls who came to say goodbye to Shade returned upstairs together, and they also wanted to rest. At the corner of the corridor on the first floor, the black-haired maid with her hands on her chest was being questioned by the manor's blonde head maid:
"Servit, how could you do this?"
"He is Duke Carina's future husband, and I am Duke Carina's head maid. Isn't it common for maids to do this kind of thing with their male masters?"
The black-haired maid had an inquiring expression in her eyes. Miss Matilda was speechless for a moment and nervously played with the hair beside her ear:
"But, but him."
She bit her lip, not knowing what to say.
On the other side, when Shade returned home and walked down from the attic, he saw the lights on downstairs and felt warm in his heart for no reason.
[Maybe there is no need to worry about calling Adele Isabella. 】
"She" said suddenly.
"Why?"
[Although the normal low-level words of sublimation cannot call her, if the "Philosopher's Stone" is added.]
Xia De raised his eyebrows:
"But I still lack a specific venue with time ritual standards."
"She" chuckled in Shade's ear:
【Can you really not find it? 】
"That counts?"
【Why doesn't it count? 】
Xia De thought for a while and felt that it would be better to get a second layer of insurance.
Changing the toy back into a real cat and letting it run and play on the stairs by itself, Shade opened his arms and hugged Miss Carina and Dorothy who came to greet him:
"It's been such a long day, you can't imagine what I've done."
"Really, why are you coming home so late?"
The red-haired duchess also complained:
"Where have you been 'hanging out' today?"
"Horse racing in the morning, cards in the afternoon, and a private meeting in the barn with a wealthy businessman's widow in the evening. She doesn't like my binding very much."
Xia De answered with a smile, and then was patted gently by Miss Writer:
"Are you serious? It's been another busy day? Didn't Luvia and the others do something for you?"
"There are some things that only I can do. Oh, it's already so late. Are you waiting for me, so you haven't slept? It's time to rest. I don't want to be awake to welcome the arrival of the Flower Moon. ”
As he said that, he and Dorothy walked side by side towards the second floor, with Miss Carina following them with a smile - three people could not stand side by side on the stairs.
However, the Duchess suddenly sniffed lightly, and she always felt that there was a very, very light and familiar smell on Shade. But considering there were so many girls in Belindle Manor, she didn't care.
