Chapter 187

e sank to the bottom of the pool startling the fish into a frenzy.
“Mrs. Wellington! What happened to you?” A maid passing by the corridor was terrified and shouted for help.

Behind the pool was a flower bed, along with stone tables and chairs for chess, flower viewing, and fish watching. Nothing seemed out of place.
What exactly had happened just now?
Sining by the pebbled edge of the pool, dripping wet, she couldn’t figure it out
“Mrs. Wellington, how did you fall into the pool?”
Seeing that she looked alright, the maid sighed in relief. If anything had happened to her, they would all be in serious trouble
