章 727: Cutting the strings- Part 2

Samuel had been waiting for Lucy to arrive at the room as she seemed to have disappeared on one of her walks. Since the last few days, Lucy had been extremely quiet, and he couldn't help but wonder if something had happened. 

He still needed her to get information in the castle to continue looking for the dark angel. Noticing Madeline's presence, he put the loving husband's facade on his face and stepped forward to greet Lucy, which was when her handkerchief slipped from her hand, and she bent down to pick it up. 

Before Samuel could say something, Lucy decided to spin a lie, "Lady Madeline and I were going out. And I came here to change my clothes." 

For a moment, Madeline was confused if they had a conversation on it but seeing Lucy turn around to her, she decided to go along and nodded her head. 

"Yes," Madeline replied with a smile, "I needed something for the wedding and Lady Lucy was kind enough to spare her time for me."
