Chapter 1192 Beginning the Counterattack

Arya went to open the door and found it locked. Just as she was about to blow a fuse, Annika showed up just in time to chill her out and asked, all puzzled, "How the heck is this door locked from the outside?" "Right? I just stepped away for a sec, and when I came back, the door was jammed." Arya, who was always straight-up, declared, "Someone's definitely messing with us."

"Maybe you accidentally locked it when you went out," the maid next to Amanda chimed in.

"What are you saying? That we locked ourselves out?" Arya snapped back, fuming.

"You were the ones outside, so who else could've done it?" the maid shot back, all smug.

"You..." Arya was about to clap back when Annika stopped her. Annika turned to the maid. "Could you please open the door?"

"You're much more polite." The maid gave Arya a cold look, opened the door, and then respectfully greeted Sadie, "Ms. James, thanks for your hard work!" "Joe's asleep, don't wake him." Sadie instructed and then bounced.

Just then, Amanda came out of the library with the kids and called out to Sadie from downstairs, "Sadie, join us for lunch?"

"Sure, I'll just change and be right down." Sadie responded with a smile, cool as a cucumber.

Behind her, the two maids watched and finally let out a sigh of relief.
