The maids, seeing Thomas Shannon's sudden arrival, were overjoyed, and each of them tried to show their most charming side, "Good morning, Young Master!"
"All of you, get out."
The maids were stunned for a moment. "Young Master, you...?"
"Get out, all of you! Don't you understand?" The man's eyes were cold, his handsome face tight with grim fury.
The maids were so frightened that they immediately fell silent, bowed humbly, and retreated from the courtyard.
Arriving at the maniac's bedroom door, Thomas Shannon grabbed the handle with one hand and twisted it forcefully.
The bedroom door was pushed open. The maniac lying on the bed was still asleep.
After her first escape attempt through the window, it had been sealed shut from the outside, leaving the bedroom shrouded in darkness.
Only a faint sliver of light penetrated the room from the open doorway.
CLICK.
Thomas Shannon flicked on the light with one hand.
