The Woman From Hell

"Hello, I'm looking for Mr. Zeke."

I took out some free time and went looking for Gareth.

The housekeeper looked at me carefully and recognized me before slowly responding, "I'm sorry. Miss Lane but Mr. Zeke is on a business trip and won't be around for a few days. I'm afraid you will have to come back in two days."

"How unfortunate, then I'll come back another day." I thanked the housekeeper and turned to leave. I bumped into a woman who had flowers in her hand when I reached an intersection. "I'm sorry, are you all right?" "It's okay."

She had a nice voice and looked to be in her early forties.

Gareth's household was the only one here. Could she have also come to look for him?

"Did you also come for Mr. Zeke? He went on a business trip," I informed her.

The woman looked up at me and froze.

I could clearly see the shock in her eyes and she proceeded to stare at me for a long time.

Her increasingly warm gaze made me a little uncomfortable and I stepped back. "I'm sorry. I'll be leaving now."

However, she then reached her hand out and stopped me. "Young lady, do you know Gareth?"
