The guard brought Rebecca inside the manor and seated her in the living room.
"Just wait here for a few seconds, my lady. I'll find the maid so that she can inform Lady Laura about your visit," he said.
"Thank you," Rebecca replied.
The guard went to the kitchen.
Then a maid exited the kitchen and climbed the stairs.
Rebecca roamed her eyes around the living room. The spacious place was adorned with antique furniture in every corner. She marveled with awe at the beautiful chandelier hanging at the ceiling. Then her eyes drifted to the grand staircase, leading to the second floor.
On the second floor.
The maid walked into the hallway and knocked at the door of Laura's room. "Lady Laura, you have a visitor!" she said.
Inside the room.
Laura and her mother Rosa looked at each other.
"Daughter, you had a visitor?" Rosa said.
Laura's brows furrowed. "W-who could it be?" she asked, confused.
"Let's go downstairs and find out," Rosa said.
