Bab 26: Brotherly affection

Music Recommendation: Mrs. Elton Arrives at Hartfield- Isobel Waller

During that week and one of the mornings, when Eve neared the entrance of the Moriarty's mansion, she caught sight of Lady Marceline standing outside with the guardsman. 

"Such a simple rule and you forgot to follow it?" Questioned Lady Marceline while glaring down at the maid, who held fear in her eyes and bowed her head. 

"Forgive me, Lady Marceline! I swear on my children to not repeat it again," the maid's words came out rushed, hoping her apology would be accepted and the young miss would not punish her. 

When the maid looked up to meet Marceline's eyes, the young miss sent a glare which was filled with anger. This made the maid quickly look at the ground, her shoulders slouched in fear and worry.
