Chapter 451 - Let's Go Back
'Tanner family never had a word written about them but in the vision, I saw him interacting with Yvonne.' The little girl continued her thoughts.
The more she mulled over what she had seen in her dream and that vision, the more she was sure that everything she had witnessed was related to the script.
'These might be the scenes that he cut from the script.' She speculated as this was the only explanation she could find.
The thought that she was somehow able to watch the live enactment of the deleted scenes from the script made her wonder what else she would discover through them.
'I hope this isn't a one-time thing!' She prayed as witnessing the scenes that Asmodeus deemed useless for the script and deleted them was something she could use against him.
While the little girl was plotting out how she would mock that god if he ever appeared before her, she was failing to see the gravity of the situation she was in.
The deleted scenes that she was eager to see more of were in fact, memories of the former Yvonne before the reset button had been hit on this entire world based on the script Asmodeus had written.
She was beginning to uncover secrets through these visions which she was calling 'deleted scenes' but will she be able to understand what they truly mean?
Only time would tell if she would figure out the truth behind these 'deleted scenes' or would continue to believe that they were harmless and did not matter to her well-being in this world.
Yvonne was hoping to find more such visions to appear before her while she stood in the same spot.
However, she did not find those visions but someone else had found her.
"Vonny?" A voice called out to her, making her turn around to see who it was.
Bowing before her were two young boys with their hands on their knees as they gasped to catch their breaths.
"Brother Roman? Brother Knox?" She muttered in confusion after recognizing them.
The elder twin straightened his back though his chest rose and fell, revealing that he was still short of breath while the younger continued to remain in the same position.
It was clear for her to see that they were struggling and she wondered what was wrong.
"I saw you walking into the woods." Roman explained why they were here between shallow breaths.
This statement displayed their concern and also the reason why they had followed after her to make sure that she was fine.
In the middle of the night, Roman had awoken from his slumber to use the washroom and when he was returning to his bed, his eyes fell to the window.
The sight outside almost made him shriek as what he saw was a pale white figure walking towards the woods.
His initial speculation of the white figure being a phantom was crossed out when he saw the stature of the supposed ghost.
He immediately thought of his little cousin and when he saw the huge horse following in the same direction she had left in, he was sure of his new theory.
Therefore, he rushed out of his room after putting on his coat and slippers.
Right outside, he found Knox who had awakened by the sounds of Roman's hurried steps and he too decided to follow his brother.
Thus, the two had arrived here at this early hour.
'I left quite a long time back.' Yvonne realized and looked at them with suspicious eyes, wondering what had taken them so long to reach her.
Roman and Knox had already recovered by now and feeling her gaze on them, they looked back at her without exhibiting any changes in their expressions.
'She can never know that we forgot the path to this place!' They had the same thought in mind.
How could they tell their little sister that for the last many minutes they had been running around in circles because they did not know which path would lead them to the pool?
Thus, when they finally reached her spot, they were sweaty, exhausted, and out of breath.
"Why were you here?" Roman diverted her attention, demanding an explanation as the woods weren't safe enough to be ventured alone.
He could see the etcher standing close by but he still wasn't relieved to know that she was here without any adult supervision.
Yvonne saw how the twins were on the same page, worried about her being here alone so she decided to ease their worries.
"I couldn't sleep and wanted to take a walk then I met Demon." She gave them her excuse for leaving the house and also for venturing into the woods.
As she alternated her gaze between them, she recalled what she had seen in the vision.
'One was polite and alienated and the other hit on me.' She cringed as she liked this current version of them better.
Given that Adult Yvonne and the twins did not know that they were related in the script, she still felt strange thinking about how Knox tried to flirt with her.
The boys sighed when they heard her innocent words and were at a loss of what to do.
They could not yell at her for that would hurt them more than her.
"No leaving the Mansion without telling anyone." Knox stepped forward and patted her head while teaching her what she should have done.
Yvonne nodded her head and bowed in apology for having disturbed their sleep.
"Let's go back now." Roman announced as the sun had already shown itself over the Valente fief.
The servants would soon appear at the Mansion and their absence would be noticed in no time.
Yvonne did not wish for anyone else to be worried due to her actions and walked along with them.
Along the way, Roman noticed her stained dress from when she had sat on the ground and wondered how they would explain it to the elders.
"My maids will not tell anyone, Brothers." She assured them that her maids were good at keeping secrets.
'But I will get an earful from Mrs. Jacinth.' She sighed as that was the price to pay for her reckless actions.
When they reached the entrance of the Mansion, Demon could no longer follow them and after bidding her goodbye, he went back to his stable.
Turning around, she smiled at her brothers who held worried expressions on their faces.
'She has been strange ever since she found that pool.' Roman realized that there was something about that place that had affected her.
Knox looked down and patted her head lovingly.
"You better get some rest, we have a lot to do today." He reminded her about their plans and watched her nod back with excitement.
The two brothers then watched as the little girl ran back inside the house and turned in the direction of her bedroom which was in the opposite direction of theirs.
As Yvonne entered her room, she shot a disgusted gaze at her bed and was not interested to sleep in it.
She once again changed into new clothes and was sure that her maids would find this odd.
She laid on the seat by the window and in no time, she fell asleep right there.
The next time that she woke up was after hearing the knock on the door.
Just as she had expected, Mrs. Jacinth found something wrong in no time and Yvonne had to give her an explanation for changing so many clothes.
She made up a story that managed to alleviate her maid's suspicions and then asked her to help her get dressed for breakfast.
The breakfast was silent among the children as three of them were trying to keep a secret and Howard, the only innocent one, was ignorant about what had taken place.
After breakfast, two carriages stood outside the mansion and everything was set for the short journey to reach the soap maker and his family.
Raylene, Trisha, and Grandpa Valente would stay back while the men and children would be setting off soon enough.
"You need to stay and watch over the Mansion." Yvonne spoke to her etcher who was disgruntled with her orders.
As Demon disliked being harnessed to the carriage and Yvonne could not ride her to their destination, it would be difficult to take him along.
Therefore, she had decided to let him stay behind and watch over the house.
'Hakka will be accompanying us so someone needs to stay here.' She thought after hearing this news from her uncle.
"You will do that for me, won't you?" She inquired and saw him nod even when he desperately wanted to follow her.
