Chapter 32
The butler was walking around the mansion completing his errands while trying to avoid the possible wrath of his master, Damien Quinn as he had failed to follow the orders . When he reached the kitchen he heard the maids were speaking quite loudly which they never did as they were always tuned to hushed whispers . The butler couldn't help himself from his eyes widening at the word of five thousand gold coins .
He had heard that this girl was bought for a thousand by the maids themselves who had, in turn, heard it from the coachman who had been there in the market to pick master Damien . But five thousand? Was this girl worth so much? Was she made of gold herself?! asked Falcon to himself before taking a look at the girl who was the dirtiest among everyone in the room . The shock on the servant's faces reflected on his own before he composed and stepped inside the kitchen resuming the role of his being the butler of the mansion .
"Dirting the floor where the food is prepared," he said gaining the girl's attention .
Penny bowed her head, ready to leave the kitchen so that she could make her way back to the room when the butler stopped her, "Where do you think you are going like that?"
Penny raised her hand to indicate where she was going to see a frown on his face, "Do you want your neck ripped apart? Go to the servant's quarters and take a bath there . Now . "
But didn't Damien tell her to come from behind? "But he said-"
"You don't have the permission to step inside the kitchen either looking this unsightly . Until you don't wash don't step back inside," the butler was strict with the duties not being partial to anyone and only following his duties .
"Master Damien asked me to-"
"Do you want me to report you for disobedience in this household?" Falcon asked, his bright eyes trained on hers .
"How come she isn't getting punished . Don't tell me she gets special treatment," Penny could hear the maid behind her whisper to the one next to her and she finally gave up seeing the butler not budge . Going back outside the mansion from where she got in, she walked towards the servant's quarters which was rather dark and quiet as most of the servants were in the mansion right now .
The walls were made of grey stones with scarce light making her watch her footsteps .
Penny shivered in cold . The dungeons were apparently much colder than outside where even her rubbing her hands against her arms didn't help . When the light ended, she wasn't sure if this was the servant's quarters . Did she get it right or had she entered a place where she wasn't supposed to be? But then knowing there was no other place where she had caught sight of she walked in the dark until she bumped into someone, a gasp escaping from her lips .
"Who is there?" asked Penny startled to hear a chuckle from someone which was manly . Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
"I should ask you that," came the voice of the man, "Don't you know, the Quinn's don't take intruders . Run while you still have time before someone notices you lurking here . "
"I am not an intruder . Why is there no light?" she asked as she felt blind not knowing the path from here, feeling the walls .
"There was one here but the oil must have extinguished by itself . Where are you?" she heard him ask before his hand touched her .
