Chapter 858
After entering the library, he rummaged through the shelves. However, he could not find what he was looking for.
“Where is it?” He murmured.
Standing in the middle of the library, he scanned his surroundings. Then, he noticed a straw mat.
He walked over to the mat apd sat down on it. Focusing his gaze in front of him, he looked straight ahead.
As if he had suddenly realized something, he immediately sprang to his feet and walked toward the shelf in front of him. Once he stood in front of the shelf, he looked at the ground.
Sure enough, there were traces of the shelf being moved.
He gently pushed the shelf. With an almost inaudible click, a secret door revealed itself.
The man’s lips curled in delight. He briskly walked over to the door and opened it. There was a black box behind the door.
Upon opening the box, he found an ancient scroll within.
A painting of a bamboo grove was revealed when he unfurled the scroll.
“The Moonlit Bamboos on Cliffside’s Edge...”
The man let out a quiet chuckle. He then put the painting back into the box, returned it to its original spot, and pushed the shelf back.
Then, he made an uneventful exit from the place.
Once Thea returned to the hotel, she peeled off the human mask on her face and changed out of her clothes. Just as she was about to leave, Thomas walked into the room.
“Sir Caden.”
She hurriedly gave him a respectful bow.
“Mhm."
Thomas gave her a slight nod of acknowledgment and said impassionately, “There’s no need to concern yourself with the rest.Return to Cansington for now.”
