There were secret passages in the mansion, so none of them understood why the maid was found.
Before Orion and Valencia could comprehend the situation, Tyler was already standing before the maid.
“Everyone was gathered in the yard, so where were you going?” he asked.
The maid kneeled on the ground, panicking. “I… I…”
“Speak up.” Tyler narrowed his eyes sharply.
The maid trembled under his glare and glanced at Orion and Valencia for help.
Tyler instantly caught onto the look she directed at the couple and glanced at Harry, who immediately stepped
forward to stop the maid from looking at Orion and Valencia.

but steady, so everyone could hear him. “Missus Hart has gone missing right now, and if Mister Hart finds out that
someone knows Missus Hart’s whereabouts yet fails to report it…do you really need me to spell out the
consequences for you? Naturally, if you come clean now, I can ask Mister Hart to show you mercy, but if you refuse
to speak and we end up finding Missus Hart here, well…” He scanned every face around him and said, “No one
here can escape punishment!”
Orion and Valencia were Tyler’s biological parents, and he might not do anything to them. However, the remaining
people were just servants, and Tyler would not think twice before punishing mere servants.
Moreover, they were all in Stoneford City, not Molivia, and Orion and Valencia were in no position to flaunt their
power. Going against Tyler and kidnapping his wife would be a suicide attempt.
Before Valencia and Orion could issue a warning, the maid panicked and spoke hastily, “I’ll talk… Mister and Missus
Hart instructed me to transfer Ms. Shaw to another location, but I hadn’t entered the secret passage when Mister
Tyler’s men arrived. I thought I could hide and head to the basement when no one was looking, but I was
discovered before I could do so…”
As they listened to the maid’s confession, Valencia and Orion were so enraged that they almost fainted.
“Where is the basement? Take us there,” Harry said.
The bodyguards immediately lifted the maid by the arms and pushed her along to find Vicky.
Valencia and Orion’s expressions instantly darkened.
…
Though Vicky could sustain herself for a few more days with the food and water she was given, the basement was
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcold and damp, and her body alternated between chills and fevers, so she soon developed a high fever.
Her consciousness gradually grew hazy, and she had a dream that she never had before.
She was brought to a vast building by the maid who had slapped her but also helped her; It resembled the
architecture of ancient palaces.
They walked for a very long time until the maid stopped in front of a courtyard and said casually, “Here we are.”
Vicky glanced at her and entered the serene and elegant courtyard.
The courtyard was filled with all sorts of exotic flowers and plants that Vicky had seen before, and she knew that
each of these plants was valued in the thousands. The worth of the plants in the courtyard alone amounted to
millions.
Even the Shaws, one of the top noble families in Stoneford City, could not possibly afford such extravagance.
As Vicky walked closer to the garden, she heard the sound of women talking and soft laughter
