Charles led Alice inside, the atmosphere of the Butler School was unique, everyone here had the word "Etiquette" written on their bodies.
Along the way, Alice still could not remember how many times she lowered her head and bent her waist towards strangers.
Indeed, the longer she stayed in the Cullen Family, the more polite she became. Even without special education, the environment had a huge impact on a person.
"Miss Alice, this is the place."
Charles led Alice to a small independent apartment.
"This is my foster father's dorm?" Alice was a little surprised, it was luxurious, she said:
"Then I will go in, you guys wait outside."
"Miss Alice, this isn't really appropriate, is it?"
"He's my foster father, what's wrong with that?"
With that, Alice took the flowers in Charles's arms and pressed the doorbell.
A few minutes later, the door was opened. Daniel was standing at the door, wearing a shirt and vest.
"Foster father."
Alice smiled and greeted him.
"Alice?"
Seeing her, Daniel's face became anxious for a moment, but he quickly recovered his composure and revealed a smile: "Alice, why are you here, what's wrong with your face?"
He saw the gauze on her face.
"I fell, it's nothing." Alice passed the bouquet to him, "I came to see you."
Saying that, Alice walked inside, although the apartment was small, it was exquisite, the decorations were beautiful too, and she could not help but say: "It is also a school, but the difference is too big."
Back when she was in school, her dorm room was squeezed with several girls.
"This place is a school to produce butlers for the wealth. The facilities are definitely better." Daniel smiled and said, he placed the flower away, "I haven't tidied up my room, why don't we go out to eat?"
"No need. I brought some dishes with me. I'm worried that you won't eat well enough here and I kept them for you. But now, it seems that I've worried too much."
With that, Alice walked up the stairs to visit Daniel's dorm room. She entered room, and saw a tablet and a pile of books on the desk.
It turned out that his foster father had been studying.
Alice walked over and saw a map. Suddenly, Daniel walked out from behind her and closed the computer. Seeing him like this, Alice detected a trace of unease in his eyes and asked: "Are you alright?"
"What can be wrong?" Daniel said, "Come, take a seat first, I'll go make you some tea."
"Alright."
Alice was a little suspicious, but she did not think much about it. She quietly found a chair and sat down, then told Daniel about what had happened in Cullen Family.
"In other words, young master's condition is getting better and better." Daniel brought a teacup over and handed it to her.
"Yeah." Alice smiled and nodded, "I made him suffer so much, and now I can finally make him become better and better."
Daniel sat down opposite of her, basking in the sunlight, then looked at her and said, "But you also sacrificed a lot."
Alice smiled.
"From the very beginning, Young Master said that you are a person who especially yearned for freedom. But now, you have sacrificed your freedom and your gallery for the sake of Young Master, and even want to stay in Cullen Family, you don't like those at all, do you? " Daniel understood Alice very well.
If she had a choice, she would rather have a gallery, that's all.
Alice smiled, "Isn't being together means sacrificing our lives for the sake of the other? William has sacrificed too much for me, so doing all this is nothing." Compared to what William had done for her, what she had done was not even worth mentioning. At least, she had not lost track of herself.
Hearing these words, Daniel could only sigh helplessly.
After staying in Daniel's dorm for a while, Alice prepared to leave. She put all the dishes she brought in the fridge.
"Foster father, I put the dishes in the fridge for you. You'd better not eat the frozen ones, only eat them when there are no fresh ones."
Alice said as she placed the dishes into the fridge.
"Okay. Don't send me off anymore, I can buy everything here." Daniel said while standing at the side as his fingers clenched into a fist.
"I'm in England anyway. I'll come and see you when I have time."
As Alice said this, she closed the refrigerator door, and a "bam, bam, bam" sound came into her ears, as if it was the sound of something hitting the wall.
What a strange sound.
"What is that sound?"
Alice looked at Daniel doubtfully.
Daniel stood there calmly, with a face full of confusion, "What sound? Why didn't I hear it?
Was she hallucinating?
Alice was a little lost, and it sounded like it was gone. Maybe there was something wrong with her ears, Alice thought as she bid farewell to Daniel and turned to leave.
She hadn't even taken two steps before the "bam bam" sound rang out again. It was louder than before.
Alice looked at Daniel and this time, she saw nervousness on his face.
"Alice, I'll send you out."
Daniel said as he pulled her away.
Alice quickly pushed his hands away and ran towards the origin of the voice. She ran to a door and pushed it. It was locked.
"Alice, what are you doing?"
Daniel walked over and stopped her.
"Open the door, foster father." This was, she was sure, where the voice came from.
"This is a junk room."
"Open the door, foster father!" Alice's tone became especially serious as she stared at Daniel, "Please open the door, or I'll tell William that you have done something special again."
Hearing this, Daniel knew that he could no longer hide it, with a face full of exhaustion, he looked at her and said, "Then Alice, don't be too shocked when you see it."
""
Hearing that, Alice started to feel uneasy, she looked at Daniel and bit her lips. Daniel took out his key and opened the door.
The room door slowly opened, and then, Alice saw a person she hadn't seen in a long time: Mona.
Mona's entire body was tied to a chair, her hair was in disarray and tape was sealed around her mouth. At this moment, she was sitting on the chair, leaning towards the wall, knocking her head against it.
It was most likely because she heard sound outside that she tried to call for help. Seeing Alice, Mona's eyes were filled with astonishment.
Alice looked at Mona in shock and was unable to recover from her shock for a long time.
Daniel kidnapped Mona.
She turned to look at Daniel, who stood there looking haggard and exhausted, and asked in disbelief, "Father, why do you act so inappropriately now?"
Kidnapping.
It's the Lady of Lancaster. Was he crazy?
Alice blurted out her accusation, causing an awkward expression to surface on his face.
Daniel smiled, and said bitterly, "I am a butler, and have always listened to my master's orders. Right now, my young master becomes not like himself, the reason was because of this woman, I cannot get his orders, so I can only act on my own will."
"Father, why didn't you discuss this with me first?"
Alice was anxious and angry. She only knew that Daniel was keeping an eye on Mona's whereabouts, but she never expected that he would directly kidnap Mona and bring her here.
Without the protection of William and the Cullen Family, Daniel would very quickly be exposed. Who knew what would happen then?
"I don't want to involve you."
Daniel said while standing at the door.
"It's useless to say this now. Tell me, what do you want to do?" Alice asked.
After thinking for a bit, Daniel walked forward and tore off the tape covering Mona's mouth. Mona was a young lady from a large clan, and her expression didn't change too much upon encountering such a kidnap.
Mona looked at Alice and spoke in a relatively calm manner, "Your butler is crazy.
If he tries to kill me, Lancaster will not let him go."
They should know how powerful Lancaster was.
Alice stood there and looked at Mona. The hatred in her heart surged again, nearly engulfing her.
But now was not the time for hatred.
Mona sat on the chair and was tied up tightly, her body was already numb. Seeing that Alice did not speak, Mona continued, "I heard your conversation, it seems that neither William nor the Cullen Family knew about this kidnapping, it was only Daniel acting on his own. If you let me go, I'll pretend nothing had happened."
"Impossible."
Before Alice could say anything, Daniel said resolutely.
"Foster father!"
Alice frowned as she looked at Daniel.
Daniel smiled at her, "Alice, I have told you before that Young Master has done me a great favor. For the sake of Young Master, I can do anything, and I don't care about anything at all."
"But when I told you, you comforted me."
Alice said. She thought Daniel was mature and wouldn't do something so impulsive.
"Yes. If you hate this woman, how could I not? I did not want you to do anything impulsive." Daniel said, and sighed, he did not expect to be discovered.
Alice felt a wave of discomfort in her heart.
He was afraid that she would do something impulsive under her hatred, but the one who ended up doing it was him.
"Alice, I told you before that you can't make her completely despair with those videos." Daniel slowly walked in front of Mona, lowered his eyes and looked at her, "Only when one dies would one completely despair."
"You want to kill me?" Mona looked at Daniel coldly, "Do you dare? I am the Lady of Lancaster!"
"Why would I not dare?" Daniel smiled gently, "I'm already at this age, wouldn't it be worth it to exchange my life for the life of a noble lady?"
"You!"
Mona stared at him, speechless.
Alice went up to pull him. Unknowingly, a blade appeared in Daniel's hand, and the tip of the blade had touched Mona's face.
Mona's expression immediately changed greatly as she glared at Alice, "Alice, don't you guys have deep feelings for each other? I'm telling you, If I am really dead, he's not going to live another week, I'm sure of it."
