Chapter 8: Trouble In The Alleyway (1)
"Where did she run off to??" Roland angrily yelled at the men that were lined up at the front of his home. He stopped his back and forth pace and casted them a death glare.
He had assigned these useless wrenches a simple task, and that was to restrict Madeline from leaving the house~ it was a very simple task and still they failed to get the job done.
"What are you doing standing here like the fools that you are, go! Search every corner of Carmarthen till you find her! She mustn’t leave Carmarthen or else, all of you should be ready to face dire consequences for letting her leave in the first place. Get out of my sight!"
"Yes sir!" They said in unison, bowing their heads before taking their leave to go find her.
The housekeepers instantly hide themselves before Roland drags his acrimonious attention towards them. He was a different person once his temper was messed with, and the veins in his forehead were popping out.
"You never seem to learn Madeline," he spoke through gritted teeth, realizing he might have made a mistake by underestimating her actions. How could he forget the quiet ones were the most dangerous ones to deal with?? He mistook her quietness for weakness and looked where it landed him.
Apart from that, the news about his broken window dampened his mood, and the only thing capable of stopping him from strangling Madeline to death was by thinking about her inheritance.
"They better find her." He stepped into his house, shutting the door with a bang.
