I did not receive any messages after spending a few days at the Yard household. I also had no idea what was happening outside now.
I lay on the bed, overcome with boredom. I played with a doll and sighed again. “Just when will I be able to get out?”
The door opened at this moment.
I quickly sat up and watched as two people entered my room. "Miss, the old master has asked us to move you into another room.”
“Another room?” Why would he want to switch me to another room out of nowhere? “Why? What happened?”
“We’re uncertain. We’re just following orders. This way, Miss.”
Both of their expressions were blank. They truly might be unaware of the reason, so I did not press any further and followed them out of the room.
This was my first step stepping out of this door after so long.
They led me to Silas’ study.
There were two doors to his study, and the room inside was likely used for rest. They let me into this room.
“The old master asked you to wait here for a moment. We’ll lead you back to your room later.”
Wait here for a bit before leading me back?
I had just taken a step in when they closed the door behind me. “Hey, aren’t you guys being too unexpected?” I leaned beside the door and heard the sound of the door closing outside. I knew then that they had left.
Why did they suddenly change my room but then said that I would only remain here for a while?
Could someone be visiting the Yards?
Could Shannon and Ty have come looking for me?
I was delighted. However, I was in another room now, not to mention it was through the second door of the study. They definitely would not be able to find me so deep inside. They could not search through the Yard household thoroughly.
Bitting my finger, I fell into contemplation.
