Chương 98: 1-White Mansion

Somerset Village-Twenty years ago

A week had passed when Hawk last saw Cat. After that one great afternoon they spent in the festival together with the girl's father, the girl hadn't come out and played with them. He asked Doug about her and the boy only shrugged, not able to tell him anything.

Worried and curious, the young Hawk bravely went to the white mansion alone where he last saw Cat and her father went. Until then he wasn't sure whether his butler was right when he said they were the Hans as when he inquired about it with Dough—the boy who brought Cat to their group—he simply answered that he didn't know and that it was impossible for Cat to be and heiress because there was no heiress in their village.

When he reached the big metal gates of the white mansion, he peeked inside, hoping he could find any signs of Cat in the vast garden inside it. However before he could look further, a guard who was stationed beside the gate shooed him away.
