Chapter 178: She’s Run Away!

Music Recommendation: The Way Things Were- Nathan Barr

--

Eve wondered what had happened to Rosetta, that made the maid look worried. She saw Lady Aurora walk towards the maid and heard her question in a low voice,

"Where is Rosetta?"

"Milady, I am not able to find her in her room or anywhere in her room or other possible places. No one has seen her since she returned here after visiting the Wright's mansion," Blythe informed her mistress in a fearful voice.

Lady Aurora glared at her maid and scolded her, "You had the same suspicion about this human, and look she was here all along. She must be sulking in some corner of this mansion for not being able to attain Vincent's attention."

But noticing Blythe's worried look, even Eve turned a little concerned. There was no way Rosetta had run away after she had advised her not to do anything like that. The Marchioness turned to look at Eve as if gauging her expression and she then ordered her maid, "Tell everyone to search for Rosetta in the mansion."

"Yes, milady," Blythe bowed and quickly left the place in haste.

"What did you tell my daughter?" Lady Aurora demanded from Eve. "Did you put some ideas in her head? To make it seem that she finally likes Vincent so that I don't pay attention to her and she escapes from here?"

Eve stayed quiet for a second, and she then said, "I believe that Rosetta has not run away. I don't know about your daughter, but the friend I know wouldn't do such a thing."

Lady Aurora glared at the human and left the room to find her daughter. Eve sighed as the tension in her shoulders left. She then turned to Allie and apologised,

"I am sorry for not accompanying you earlier today through your studies, Allie."

The small vampiress shook her head, "I was practising a song. I shall play it in the soiree... Would you like to hear it now?" Asked the little one with excitement, and Eve nodded.

"Of course, let us hear you play," Eve replied with a smile, and an excited Allie hopped towards the piano, taking her seat on the bench.

Allie started to press her small fingers on the black and white keys, and soon the instrument started creating beautiful music tunes. In her mind, Eve hoped that Rosetta hadn't really run away. While far away from the piano room, Lady Aurora stood with her arms crossed at the beginning of the bottom flight of stairs, waiting to see her daughter before she returned to the Wright's mansion.

Soon servants started to search for Hooke's daughter, but she was nowhere. Lady Annalise, who caught sight of the maids moving back and forth in the corridor, appeared at the stairs and questioned,

"Is everything alright?"<novelnext> </novelnext>

"It will be when I find my daughter," Lady Aurora's eyes narrowed as anger started to bubble up in her mind. "Where is Rosetta, Lady Annalise?"

Lady Annalise made her way down the stairs and replied, "I thought she was with you, Lady Aurora. I haven't seen her since this morning."

The Marchioness's eyes slightly narrowed. Did that mean Rosetta didn't return after it? No, Blythe said she did. What if her daughter had made it appear as if she had returned, only to escape from here? But at the same time, Rosetta had no money and would need lots of money if she travelled somewhere. If the governess had helped her daughter with money, it would only be little, so it couldn't be the governess.

"Where is Vincent?" Lady Aurora demanded from Lady Annalise.

"He has gone out, and must be in Darthmore on some work, Marchioness," Lady Annalise answered, and Lady Aurora's question made her wonder if Vincent had done something to the young Hooke.

Blythe once again came back and informed her mistress, "Milady, Lady Rosetta is nowhere to be seen."

Lady Aurora glared hard at her maid and slapped the maid across her face. Blythe shook in fear, her hand now covering her cheek whilst she looked at the ground. The Marchioness said,

"I told you to take care of Rosetta." She turned to look at Lady Annalise, "I warned your family to follow through the conditions and not try anything. If not in this mansion, where is my daughter, Lady Annalise?"

Lady Annalise furrowed her eyebrows and said firmly, "Isn't it possible that she went to visit her friend, or she went shopping by herself? I don't think it is good for our future relationship, if you are so willing to put the blame on my family."

"My daughter has no friends. Nor does she have any money on her to spend. My daughter is used to buying the most expensive things. Be it either clothes, jewels or even food," Lady Aurora responded and she said, "Let me go question your son in the Council." Saying it, the woman turned on her heel and walked away from there, while being followed by her personal maid.

Alfie appeared at the scene. He bowed and turned to look at Lady Annalise, who held a grim expression. She questioned him,

"When was the last time you heard about Rosetta here?"

"When I heard that she returned, I sent a glass of blood tea to her room. But it has been left untouched and cold until now, milady," Alfie dutifully answered the lady of the mansion.

Lady Annalise sighed. Many weeks ago, she had believed that the Hookes would be the perfect family match when Lady Camille Wright brought up how she was looking for a groom for her niece. But right now, she couldn't believe the trouble the Hookes were bringing them.

Alfie watched Lady Annalise walk up the stairs, while he wondered if Rosetta Hooke really ran away to avoid marrying his master. It seemed like the vampiress was trying to rebel against her parent's decision. But where did she go?

With all the commotions going on In the Moriarty mansion, away from the front side of the mansion, on the above floor and in one of the corridors where people didn't often walk, inside one of the many dark rooms, an unconscious Rosetta now lay on the floor. And next to her stood Eugene, who was very much awake.
