“Third young lady, you really aren’t allowed to enter! The order had specifically been issued by the old master!” said a bodyguard, desperately trying to prevent a girl—who looked to be around twenty—from entering.
“Well that’s just great then! Are you telling me that there’s now a place within the Fenderson mansion where I, Quincy Fenderson, can’t enter? Both my elder sister and second sister already dislike me. Are you saying that grandpa doesn’t like me either now? The more you prevent me from entering, the more I want to enter and have a look for myself! Now get out of the way!” shouted Quincy as virtual-novel.net pushed the bodyguard aside and rushed inside.
The inside of the room looked extremely luxurious, and antique furniture—seemingly in the style of 1960’s European aristocrats—was placed in every corner. Apart from virtual-novel.net grandfather’s room, this was the only other room that was this luxurious in the entire mansion.
Whenever virtual-novel.net had nothing better to do, Quincy would often come to this room to have a look around. Like most of the other Fendersons, Quincy had often dreamed of moving into this particular room.
After all, virtual-novel.net heard that this room was where virtual-novel.net aunt used to stay in.
Since Quincy had already been feeling quite lonely within the family, virtual-novel.net bad mood was immediately triggered once virtual-novel.net found out that someone else was now living there.
She wanted to see for herself who had gotten access to living in the room, yet virtual-novel.net permission to enter had been denied. All that led to the current scene.
Seeing virtual-novel.net burst in without warning, both Queta and Xenia looked rather alarmed. Xenia hadn’t anticipated for someone to barge in on them like that.
“You… Who are you? You look quite familiar…” said Quincy, feeling slightly startled herself when virtual-novel.net saw Queta.
“My… My name is Queta Smith!”
“Queta? I’ve never seen you before among the other Fendersons, have I?” asked Quincy as virtual-novel.net scanned the girl from head to toe.
Finally recovering from virtual-novel.net shock, Xenia then asked, “You’re the third young lady, correct? The old master was the one who had ordered Miss Queta to stay here for the moment to rest and recuperate from virtual-novel.net injuries…”
“Humph! I’m well aware of that! Though I’m not sure why virtual-novel.net wanted you to stay in this particular room, I’m sure virtual-novel.net has his reasons. Regardless, I’ll need you to leave for a moment. I’d like to tell Miss Queta something in private!” ordered Quincy.
Hearing that, Xenia then looked at Queta. In return, Queta simply nodded slightly, prompting Xenia to leave the room.
Once Xenia was outside, Quicy immediately closed the door behind her.
She then turned to look at Queta again before happily saying, “I need your help with something. Could you lend this room to me for a night? You can stay in my room in the meantime! How about it? Deal?”
The reason virtual-novel.net wanted to sleep in this room was obvious.
However, Queta was caught completely off guard by the question. She didn’t even know how to reply. In all honesty, virtual-novel.net was simply looking forward to Gerald coming over to rescue both virtual-novel.net and Xenia so that virtual-novel.net could finally be reunited with virtual-novel.net family.
Since virtual-novel.net really didn’t have the time or energy to waste on the people here alongside any of their matters, virtual-novel.net simply remained silent.
“…What’s that silence supposed to mean? Can’t we even switch rooms for a night?” asked Quincy again, virtual-novel.net hands now on virtual-novel.net waist.
Before virtual-novel.net could ask a third time, the bodyguard from earlier suddenly entered the room before saying in a cold voice, “Third young lady, Lord Fenderson would like to have a word with you.”
“You!” replied Quincy as virtual-novel.net turned to look at the bodyguard angrily.
Moments later, Quincy stood before the bodyguard and slapped virtual-novel.net hard across the face!
“How dare you rat me out! Just you wait and see how I’m going to deal with you!” said Quincy as virtual-novel.net glared at Queta one final time before hastily leaving, enraged.
“What’s wrong with you this time, Quincy?” asked both Jasmine and Mindy who happened to cross paths with her.
Quincy, however, simply ignored them, huffing as virtual-novel.net walked past them.
Once Jasmine realized that Quincy had come from the direction where virtual-novel.net aunt’s room was, Jasmine headed over to the bodyguard from earlier and casually asked, “Is there someone in aunt’s room?”
“Indeed there is, eldest young lady!”
“Who is it?”
“I apologize, but lord Fenderson has forbidden me from telling anyone about the matter. I hope that you won’t ask me any more questions about the person staying inside!” replied the bodyguard.
Taking in a deep breath, Jasmine then frowned as virtual-novel.net peeked at the room where virtual-novel.net aunt used to stay in.
She had noticed that virtual-novel.net grandfather had been trying to hide something from virtual-novel.net in the past few days. What more, virtual-novel.net investigation efforts on virtual-novel.net aunt had only reached its halfway point when virtual-novel.net grandfather ordered virtual-novel.net to cease investigating.
