Chapter 68 - Find the Spy (Part 3) (2/2)

Do you remember that we could only see each other from afar? Please don't be so sad, my dear, I know you remember. Though Callum kidnapping you and shoving you into my room was not part of my plans, I swear, he did it because he wanted, and he was grateful to me. Not because I insinuated your name every day of my enclosure.

Well, then that week made me think deeply and meditate for a few hours every day, mostly in my bed and hugging that plush toy you gifted me on my birthday. Sigh… darling, you always know what I like the most. Though, right now, I will really like to hug you… more…

*Blushes*

Well, then everything started that week, the golden fish was thrown into the pond and at the same time, something happened. I got a clue.

You may ask what kind of hint and on what, well, I was investigating a case, a terrifying case of a ghost story. You will ask something like 'How on earth a ghost exists in this world? Is the smartest girl in the world, and my beautiful bride going crazy? Anyway, I love her and adore her like the goddess she is.'

”…”

Well, my dear, they do exist. Some of them just need a blanket with two holes as eyes to start their journey. You can ask Victor for the details later.

Anyway, the hint about my ghost research came unexpectedly, I received a note in my pocket. A golden letter with beautifully handwritten words.

The one signing the letter only put one letter to not reveal his identity, he was a spy, and he was relying on me to help him find this ghost. Or more like, the ghost story.

Well, hehehe… only if you give me a kiss… *sound of a kiss*

*cough*

Great, you are doing great. Well, there was no much in the first letter, of course, there was no more than a few letters. He was a spy, after all, and he needed to be careful in how to reveal his info.

I don't have the letters with me, darling. For our safety, I had to burn them down, what if someone finds them and looks for fingerprints or DNA, we can't let that happen.

What is DNA? Oh, that… is… never mind. I will explain later.

Anyway, the content was not that important as they only had a few words, just some hints like a name, a place, a year. Even a drawing.

I started my research with Callum, of course, as my main helper.

That man was training Moira and so the two of them joined the research, so it was a good thing for Moira. They were very discreet, though.

”…”

Okay, okay, I can't forget the time they almost burned to the ashes the tower of the kitchen staff and the kitchen on the new building and my tower's kitchen. I punished them that time though. No one makes my dear Chef Hugo cry, or they will suffer the consequences.

Oh no, please don't be jealous, it is just that… just that… the fruit tarts… I can't let them suffer.

What? Why are you asking me that? Do you want me to see me cry? How can you ask me to choose between you or my fruit tarts? Of course, I will choose you covered in fruit tarts…

*blushes*

Anyway… that is not the thing, but the results of the research. It seemed that a ghost really existed. Callum found traces of him in the north.

I know you want to know the details, but… well… I guess you know what happened at my mom's birthday that time, right?

Yes, that idiot Thomas had to… well, you know. If he were not my cousin and the elder brother of Collin, then I would already send him to Moira's kitchen to be tortured for eternity. Muahahaha

”…”

Well, now you can figure out how to convince Thomas to spill the beans and tell me the exact location of the ghost. According to Callum's research, Thomas knew exactly the place.

However, that boy… he had to cheat and gave us the wrong info. Do you remember?
