Chapter 109 (1/2)
At night, the Caritas.
In the mansion built of purple tiles and white stone bricks, people walk around. The dim candle light is replaced by a new candle by a servant, which is more and brighter.
”Where's the first lady, chief chambermaid? We have an urgent report
A middle-aged steward asked anxiously. There were many people standing in the brightly lit hall, including the steward of the chamber of Commerce headquarters, the workshop owner, the guard captain, and many other people who came to report.
The business scope of the chamber of commerce is very wide, and it is easy to receive all kinds of information and notices. Although the establishment time of caritus is shorter than other chambers, it has attracted a group of people with interests as a link in recent years.
After discovering the abnormality of the other three, these small chambers of Commerce or individuals who usually make friends with Carites have news.
No one expected that in this happy night full of festival atmosphere, the other party would suddenly make trouble, and it was at night, which really disturbed many people's hearts.
At present, the headquarters of caritis chamber of Commerce has already been mobilized. Those who came home from work or slept before were called up again and gathered in the courtyard. The door of the chamber of Commerce was closed and no one was allowed to enter or leave at will.
However, since the owner of the family was not present, and Angus and Ray had no other family members, no one made a decision on how to deal with them
”I'm sorry, the first lady said she wanted to go shopping and see the night market. She's already out and not at home.”
”Is the young lady accompanied by guards?” Another steward asked anxiously.
”No,” he said The maid answered concisely.
”What can we do? We can't get in touch with the first lady now. In case something happens to her, what should we do for caritus...”
Several stewards walked anxiously around, sighing from time to time.
Although some of the people in the hall were restless and some sighed, the maid was still standing quietly in the middle, like a bridge pillar in a turbulent River, motionless and self-conscious, and didn't seem to worry about Lacey's safety.
And the performance of this senior member of the chamber of commerce also made the people in the hall a little more stable and gained some psychological comfort. Sometimes no news is not bad news.
Chelsea's own strength is probably around the third in the series. Although there is no room for improvement, the victory lies in rich experience.
In fact, she didn't know the real strength of her eldest daughter, but it was certain that Lacey must be better than her, which came from the careful observation in her life.
Lacey's breathing rate is extremely stable at ordinary times. Although the first lady doesn't have to do heavy work, she can't breathe all day long even when she visits the workshop of the chamber of Commerce. She usually walks with light feet. She never has instability or mistakes. This kind of thing is easy to maintain in one or two days, but it's extraordinary if she hasn't made a mistake in a whole few months.
As long as the young lady has the ability of self-protection and keen observation, she will come back when she finds something wrong in the city. Chelsea have great confidence in this.
”Report, my Lord. The emissary of the Hollis family has come. The official document with seal on his hand should be true.”
A valet trotted into the hall and announced the news.
The five major chambers of Commerce infiltrate each other. At this critical moment, it is difficult to win the trust of others by just one person's message. When we hear that there are official documents, all the people present will pay attention to them.
”Bring the messenger in.”
