Chapter 57 Madison wants to escape
Emery’s POV
They turned to me sharply with furrowed eyebrows. With the idea I have now, I’m sure that girl is definitely going to be beheaded by The Master.
“What plan are you talking about Emery? The last plan you executed got us into so much trouble, and I wouldn’t like that to repeat itself again” Rodolfo snapped at me, and I rolled my eyes.
“Come on Rodolfo, do you think I’m some kind of nonentity? With the plan I have now, I’m sure that the master is no never going to blame us. Who would even know that we are the one that did it? You have nothing to worry about, I have my neck on my shoulders” I scoffed at them.
“Emery, would you mind telling us about your plans? I don’t know, but I feel kind of off with your plans. I know how much you hate that girl, and I know that you would like to get her out of your way no matter what. But you should also consider the fact that you might get yourself into trouble all in the name of getting that girl out of your way” Maria cut in sharply.
“Why do you guys not trust me? Was it because the last plan that we executed didn’t work? Come on Rodolfo, this is going to help you because if I lose my place, I’m sure you are also going to lose your place. Have you forgotten how I persuaded the Master to turn you from a slave to a guard? I know you understand what I’m saying, and I want you to know that if I’m going down, then I’m going down with each one of you” I snorted, and they gulped hard.
“And if you’re getting punished, we are getting punished alongside you because we will all be seen as your allies. I don’t want to get into trouble Emery. The Master is short-tempered, and having you hanged to death won’t be a big deal for him” Maria said those words with fear, and that angered me the most.
“You’re just a coward Maria. I don’t know why you have to become my best friend. If you don’t help me out with the plans I have right now, then you can as well forget your position as my personal maid. You have to go back to being a slave, I can get someone suitable for my job” I yelled at her, and she exhaled deeply.
“That’s what you’re threatening me with all the time, but I keep on getting into trouble each time I want to do what you tell me to do. Why don’t you tell us about your plan? I need to know if it is something that I can involve myself in” Maria spoke softly, and I eyed her with anger burning through me. I turned my gaze to Rodolfo with raised eyebrows.
“Are you with me or against me Rodolfo?” I asked, and he nodded his head in agreement.
“I’m with you Emery” He replied, and I smirked mischievously. It’s time to make that slave realize her place.
Madison’s POV
I paced around the room in so much worry. Does this mean that I’ll be here in this castle forever? I can’t even leave this place.
I thought of the conversation I had with Axel. Furthermore, I had pleaded with him to help me give the letter, but he told me that it was impossible.
Just then, I felt someone’s presence inside the room. I quickly turned around and saw Mona with a plate containing some food.
“Hey Mady! Don’t you want to have something?” She asked dropping the food on the stool. I can’t let her notice that something like that is actually bothering me.
“You don’t look okay Madison. I know you’re trying hard to hide this from me, but it’s too obvious that I can’t even decide to keep mute. Tell me, what’s the issue?” Mona asked, and I forced a smile at her.
“Issue? What are you talking about Mona? I don’t have any issue, and I don’t understand what you’re saying” I pretended, and she stared at me for a while.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
“How is the master’s daughter? The rumor is spreading all over the Castle that you are on his daughter’s new nanny. Is there any truth in that?” Mona asked with her eyebrows raised, and I nodded my head with a pout.
“What? I thought he said he needed to give you punishment, so the punishment you got from him was taking care of his daughter?” Mona freaked out. I nodded my head in agreement, and she scoffed.
“I heard his daughter is a very difficult little girl. How are you supposed to get through with that? If anything happens to that girl, the master is definitely going to skin you alive. How could he make such an offer to you? I’m really scared Madison, because this is not good for you, I know how risky this punishment can be” Mona cried out.
“You have nothing to worry about Mona. Unlike everything you heard, Zara is a nice girl. From the little time we spent with each other, I can tell that she’s not troublesome” I said, and she nodded her head with sarcasm.
“I hope so” She replied.
“Uhm… Mona, do you know any exit from the Castle that is not that too guided?” I summoned courage to ask, and she turned to me with arched eyebrows.
“Huh? Why do you ask? I hope you don’t have any intentions of escaping from the Castle? That is not the best option girlfriend. The people who tried that are all dead” Mona said, and I gulped nervously.
Beads of sweats rolled down my face the moment she told me that none of them are alive. Should I really escape from here to see my little brother? Will I be caught and killed? How would I know all these if I don’t try it out at least. What do I do?
