After putting Sophia and John’s suitcases in the trunk, Zack got in the passenger seat while Mrs. Constance and Isabelle were still standing next to their sedan.

When she moved out of the Constance Residence, she thought that she would never return, but look at how quickly things changed.

 

The car kept on going until they entered the front yard of the Constance Residence, which was situated halfway up a hill; the surrounding area was extremely quiet.

Behind the Constance Residence was a bamboo forest. It was very well managed and it made the environment feel quiet and peaceful.
