When Aubree returned to the living room, she didn’t see Pippa.

She peered out of the floor-to-ceiling window but failed to see the maid. Her heart performed a somersault. She asked, “Thomas, where is Pippa?”

Aubree’s heart skipped a beat. She strode to the stairs, going upstairs immediately.

Jennifer watched her in surprise.

In the room of the locked door, Alfie and Diana tiptoed to cling their ears to it. They wondered who was behind the door.

“Pippa!”

The sudden voice shocked Pippa. She turned around and met Aubree’s gaze.

Pippa breathed a sigh of relief. “You scared me, Madam Aubree.” “Why are you here?” Aubree walked toward her.
