Chapter 253 - Found Sleeping Beauty (4) (1/2)

”I think this is the safest place,” I stared at the tall bush blocking the view from the other side.

”Maybe the garden is the best place,” Sienna saw how our improvised bed was perfectly hidden.

The only problem was how each of us was going to sneak out into the garden without getting noticed. In a sense, this was harder than going to the second floor. I sighed as we also needed to get rid of the bed once it was near lunchtime.

”We should go back to Henry and decide who's going to take the first turn,” I carefully watched if anyone was inside the garden.

”The back entrance is locked,” Sienna frowned.

I moped with her as it meant we would have to get back through the front entrance. I dusted off the leaves that got on my dress as I hoped Alice and Ben wouldn't notice us passing through. Unfortunately, Alice smiled like she was wondering why we were re-entering the banquet hall when we were near the end of the line.

”Alice will be too busy greeting the other guests,” Sienna comforted me.

”What brings you to our event?” Alice asked us why we were outside the ballroom when we were in front of the line.

”The garden is really beautiful!” Sienna pretended to admire the garden.

”In fact, we weren't the only ones there,” I bluffed.

”Should we also visit the garden?” the partner behind us wondered.

”It must be better than the banquet hall,” the people behind them agreed.

Both Alice and Ben froze as some people in the line left to visit the garden instead. Nobody bothered to decorate the garden as everyone focused on making the ballroom perfect for the guests. It was just an ordinary garden that was well-maintained by the servants like any other household.

The situation seemed to turn for the worst as half of the long line left to join the others. I immediately messaged Luke to call some waiters to the garden. Not a second passed as I got a message back that the servants were placed everywhere around the garden to serve the drinks. Although it created a mess, it was the perfect excuse for going to the garden often now.
