The Woman From Hell

Petra ordered someone to serve pastries. Soon, the masseuse arrived.

She was a woman who loved dressing up, and since the Louises' residence was huge, she transformed a room into a beauty parlor. I plopped down on the bed after going in with her, enjoying the relaxing sensation from every part of my body. I soon fell asleep.

When I woke up, the masseuse had left. I lay on the bed and stretched comfortably.

Petra walked in with a glass of juice, asking with a smile, "Did you sleep well?"

"Very well."

I got up and put on my clothes. My body felt extraordinarily comfortable.

Petra smiled slightly. "You must be hungry. Eat something first. I'll go make something later. Munchkin has been telling me that he's craving roasted chicken. That greedy look on his face nearly got me crying from laughing too hard. Both of you weren't around the last few days, so it was fortunate that he was here to accompany us or it would've been so boring."

"It must not have been easy for you to take care of him."

"We're a family, so don't say things like that."

Petra helplessly smiled and stuffed the glass into my hands.

I was not surprised to see Theo downstairs.

He knew I had come to the Louises' residence and would definitely come to look for me when he had time.

When I saw him playing chess with Grayson, I did not interrupt him and walked quickly into the kitchen.

Petra was already bustling about in the kitchen. When she saw me coming in, she said, "Go sit down in the living room. I don't need help here. Besides, I'll be done soon."

I nodded and yawned, asking, "When did Theo arrive?"

"An hour ago." She glanced at me. "I heard that you guys plan to go to Limbia."
