Sophie did not expect that not only did her benefactor not show his face, he even refused to allow her to communicate with the outside world. She suddenly felt rather disappointed. 1
She asked tentatively, "Will you let me report my safety to my family? My grandfather must be very worried about the safety of my mother and I. We would just like to inform him that we are both safe..." 6
The woman shook her head and said seriously, "Sorry Ms. Schulz, our young master’s order was to not contact anyone from the outside, no matter who the other party is."
Although Sophie didn't understand thoroughly, she nodded her head slightly and thought to herself,' Although this arrangement looks as if my benefactor has placed me under house arrest, I believe he must have his reasons, and it must be a good and thoughtful intention.'
Therefore, she said, "I understand, thank you."
The lady immediately said, "You’re welcome, Ms. Schulz. If you and Mrs. Schulz need anything, just inform us. Including what you wish to eat or drink, what you want to wear, you can request anything from us. Our young master has left instructions for us, so let
us arrange everything for you." "Alright..." Sophie bowed slightly as she said gratefully, "Thank you!"
As soon as she finished her sentence, she realized that she was indeed feeling a little hungry. She then said, "That... In that case, can I trouble you to help purchase some breakfast for my mother and I?"
The lady said earnestly, "Definitely, Ms. Schulz. May I know what you would like to eat?"
Sophie quickly replied, "Anything is alright, as long as it's plain."
"Noted." The lady said, "Ms. Schulz, please return to your room and rest for the time being. I will inform the kitchen to prepare it now."
"Thank you!"
