Novel Full 174 The Bird was Captured.
“Subhead Maid Edrea,” A maid called.
“Ughh?”
Edrea turned around, her lump shoulders and deep dark circles were honestly scary right now.
The maid gulped, she did not want to talk to this zombie-like subhead maid at all, however, she has to do her duty or else she will be fired.
“What is it?” Edrea questioned in a hoarse voice.
She still had a lot of work to do.
Lots and lots of work.
Too much work.
Ughh…
She wanted to die.
She was actually regretting offending Edda now…
The Subhead Maid position wasn’t that bad either.
“Subhead Maid E-Edrea… there is a letter for you…” The maid was even more creeped out when she heard Edrea’s voice, she quickly passed the envelope and ran away.
Edrea, who noticed the small red mark on the letter frowned, she then looked around and seeing that no one was there, she quickly opened the envelope and started reading.
‘The bird flew away,
However, since she had taken away your heart with her, I had no choice but to capture her.
The bird is with me now’
Edrea’s tired eyes brightened up!
This explains why Edda wasn’t back yet!
Marquees Alger captured her!
“Ha… Haha… HAHAHAHAHAHA!”
Suddenly, Edrea laughed out loud.
Then, the ring on her finger shined and a paper appeared in her hand.
This was the list of things Edda told her to do.
She then walked towards a lamp and burned the list.
“HAHAHAHAHA! You bitch! I finally got my hands on you!”
Edrea laughed like crazy, then, she returned to her room with an excited face and then started writing another letter.
‘To my one and only Love, Algerama,
So you captured the bird that I set free.
I don’t know what to feel about this, however,
I hope you will let me meet the bird again,
Please give me a date and time,
I would like to see you and my bird again,
Maybe this time, the bird will understand my feelings,
Maybe this time, the bird will finally understand me.’
Edrea’s eyes shined in delight as she put the letter in the envelope.
“You bitch! I have had enough of you!
Hahahaha! Soon! You will finally beg me to let you go!
Hahahaha! I am looking forward to seeing you beg in front of me!
I want you to kneel in front of me!
However, no matter what you do, I would never let you go away, I will torture you! I will make your life a living nightmare!
HAHAHAHA!”
Edrea laughed like crazy again.
She was really looking forward to meeting Edda again.
However, she will do that later.
For now…
She would like to sleep.
She was too tired…
Edrea then walked towards her bed and as soon as she lay down, she entered the dreamland.
…
2 days later, Edrea stood in front of Allura’s door and she knocked.
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
“Enter.” Allura’s voice was heard and Edrea entered her room.
“Did you summon me, Lady Allura?” Edrea questioned with a bow.
“Subhead Edrea, I have a question,” Allura muttered.
“Please ask, Lady Allura, I will try my best to answer you,” Edrea responded.
“Then I will come directly to the point, where is Edda?” Allura questioned as she squinted her eyes.
Edrea was taken aback by the question, she knew that Allura and Edda were talking with each other for the last few days, but she had no idea that they were close enough for Allura to personally call and interrogate her.
However, no matter what she was thinking inwardly, there were no traces of worry on her face and she answered,
“Lady Allura, I do not know where the head maid Edda is. The last I saw her was 3 days ago. She left the palace to meet someone, however, she didn’t return the next day.”
Edrea muttered, not revealing too much and acting ignorantly.
“Is that so?”
“Yes, Lady Allura.”
“Are you sure you don’t know anything else?” Allura questioned.
“Yes, Lady Allura.”
“Alright, you can leave.”
Allura nodded.
A small smile appeared on Edrea’s face as she bowed again,
“As you say, Lady Allura,”
Then, she turned around and left the room.
After she left, Allura turned her blue eyes towards the curtain of her room, a maid walked out from that direction, she was Leane, a maid who was very close to Allura.
Well, they were not that close, but she was closest compared to all other maids.
Leane’s has a good ‘information network’ she also knows most of the rumours going around the palace, which is also the reason why she is so close to Allura.
“Keep a close eye on her,” Suddenly, Allura ordered.
“Huh? Why?” Leane frowned and questioned.
“Don’t you find her suspicious?” Allura questioned back.
“Suspicious? Why?”
“Edda was bullying Edrea, have you seen that?”
“Of course I did, Lady Allura. However, many maids say that Head Maid Edda was just punishing Subhead Maid Edrea for something she has done.
She wasn’t bullying her.” Leane answered.
“That doesn’t matter, in the end, Edda was bullying her.”
“Yes, she was,” Leane nodded.
“And now, Edda is missing,” Allura commented.
“She i- wait…” Leane wasn’t stupid, she knew what Allura was trying to say.
“Lady Allura, are you saying that Edrea might be the reason wh-“
“It is just a speculation, I am not sure, however, there are high chances of that happening…” Allura answered.
“I understand.” Leane nodded.
Allura nodded.
Seeing that Allura had nothing else to say, Leane muttered,
“Lady Allura, then I will be taking my leave now,”
Allura nodded again.
Then, Leane quickly left the room with an excited smile on her face.
Heh.
Sure or not, what she learned was still something spicy.
She would be a fool if she did not spread it.
Allura, who saw her leaving, smiled.
She knew what type of girl Leane was.
Just like her, she liked rumours a lot.
However, rather than listen to rumours, she liked to spread the rumours.
And that is what she was going to do now,
And that is what,
Allura, Nux, and Edda wanted her to do now.
