Mrs. Marsh's Revealed Identities novel (Jennifer and Ivan) novel Chapter 411

When Aubree returned to the living room, she didn’t see Pippa.

She peered out of the floor-to-ceiling window but failed to see the maid. Her heart performed a somersault. She asked, “Thomas, where is Pippa?”

The butler looked around, seemingly having no idea.

Jennifer answered, “Pippa went upstairs. Shall I call her?”

Aubree’s heart skipped a beat. She strode to the stairs, going upstairs immediately.

Jennifer watched her in surprise.

In the room of the locked door, Alfie and Diana tiptoed to cling their ears to it. They wondered who was behind the door.

“Pippa!”

The sudden voice shocked Pippa. She turned around and met Aubree’s gaze.

Pippa breathed a sigh of relief. “You scared me, Madam Aubree.”

“Why are you here?” Aubree walked toward her.

Pippa answered, “I still left something in this room. No one should have been here usually. Why is the door locked from the inside?”

Aubree asked, “What did you leave there? Anything important?”

“Not really.” Pippa checked the door in confusion. “Why is it locked?”

“I kept some bullion in a safe and moved it to this room,” Aubree made a random excuse.

Pippa nodded, not fully understanding. She gave up on entering the room. “Let’s go downstairs, Madam Aubree. It’s nothing important.”

“Ehn.”

Aubree turned around and walked to the stairs, followed by Pippa.

However, the latter still looked back from time to time, wondering what was in the room.

Aubree kept indifferent. Whether Pippa became suspicious, she wouldn’t let Pippa enter. Aubree decided to keep an eye on her.
