Kapitel 183: The Tyranny Of Grief

Aideen carefully opened the door and walked into the empty room. The maids' quarters were silent, as it was already two in the morning and everyone was long asleep.

The emptiness of the room, which Bella and Safie used to share, held a heavy presence, and the princess couldn't help but feel somewhat unwelcome as she continued to take cautious steps toward the center of the room.

After Bella's death, Safie requested to be moved somewhere else because she couldn't bear staying in that room alone. Tillian didn't hesitate with his permission, and now Safie was sharing a room with Angela, the kitchen maid. Neither Duke Valentine nor his wife had the heart to start looking for someone else to replace the beloved head maid of the castle.
