The guard swiftly clamped a hand over his mouth.
Marion heard the sound and wrapped an arm around Debra’s waist. She glanced down at his hand, her eyebrows knitting together.
“What are you doing?”
“Nothing. Just make sure you don’t fall.
Debra brushed his hand away. “Behave yourself.”
Marion smiled, “Anything you say.”
On their way back, Debra examined the key in her hand, her fingers tracing the intricate craftsmanship. It was clearly an antique, the lock’s shape rare

“Let’s go to the old house. I want to check the ancestral hall.”
“Ralph mentioned there was nothing valuable there, or perhaps the value lies

“Since my father valued the ancestral hall so much when he was alive, there must be something important hidden there. Ralph might not have found it

Debra recalled her visits to the ancestral hall when she was a child. She remembered her initial curiosity, but beyond that, she hadn’t given the hall much thought.
Seeing her furrowed brow, Marion gently tapped her forehead..
“Hey, don’t overthink it. We have the key now. We’ll find out what’s inside eventually.”
“I’m doing this for you, and now you’re telling me not to think too much?”
“You’re right, as always.”
