"I can't sleep." Alice said lightly, "I feel like that William's birthday is going to be terrible. I obviously didn't want such an arrangement, so why did it turn out like this?"
Now, William still wanted to rush over the matters of the Brown Family.
He didn't even seem to feel the joy of his birthday.
"This has nothing to do with the Miss Alice, you picked this up." Daniel stood behind her and said with a somewhat aged voice, as he comforted her, "Furthermore, I believe that with Young Master's wisdom,something will be fine very soon."
"I believe him too."
Alice nodded, she raised her head and looked at the sun in the sky, "Steward Daniel, my father will probably be back by dusk."
"Yes, Miss Alice."
Daniel said.
"Father still hasn't eaten a good meal with William. When we return, we will sit together and have a good meal together." Alice said, her eyes were pierced by the blazing sunlight, but she was still unwilling to turn her head.
"Alright, I'll cook." Daniel said with a smile, as he folded his hands on his body.
Hearing that, Alice said, "Then my father will definitely be very surprised, how can there be a perfect person like the Steward Daniel in this world, he might even let you come down here to do something."
"Then I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint Mr.Brown. I won't betray Young Master."
Daniel joked.
Alice also laughed, but her smile could not reach her eyes, her clear black and white eyes reflected her worry and sorrow.
She hadn't possess her home for a long, long time.
She was going to have it all the time.
Things always came one after another, and no matter how calm a person was, he would be disrupted. He was at a loss of what to do.
That night, William and Patrick only sent a bit of news that their father was temporarily safe, and as for the specifics, they didn't know anything while they stayed in the main room.
Alice sat on the bed, wearing her pajamas and leaning on the back of the bed. In her hand was a book, but she could not read a single word.
William told her to rest well.
She said that things would be settled as soon as she woke up. If she didn't sleep, then her father wouldn't be able to come back before she woke up.
Thinking this way, Alice laid down on the bed, placed the book aside and closed her eyes, forcing herself to sleep. She believed in Patrick, and believed even more so in William.
One sheep, two sheep, three sheep.
Alice silently counted in her heart. Suddenly, she heard the sound of something shattering outside, which was a little far away.
Alice opened her eyes wide in doubt, and then heard Mary's excited and panicked screams.
Mary's character was now extremely easy to be frightened of,and she could even cry out from fright if she dropped something after smashing a cup.
Alice pulled away from the bed and casually tied up her long hair. After that, she walked out and heard Mary's terrified voice, "Aunt, don't scare me, Aunt. Are you alright? I'm so scared, don't be like this."
Auntie?
Mother!
Alice's eyes suddenly widened, and ran towards Beverly's bedroom without hesitation. Her feet were not wearing shoes, and when she stepped on the ground, she would still feel pain from her injured feet.
Alice ran into Beverly's bedroom only to see Mary squatting on the floor in fright, her entire body shivering, and a tray and cup dropping onto the floor. Milk was spilled all over the floor.
She turned her head and Beverly sat on the bedside. Her back was also trembling ...
"Mother!"
Alice immediately walked towards Beverly, but when she walked closer, she realized that Beverly's face was extremely pale, her lips stained with blood, and there were blood stains on the floor.
"Mother, what happened to you? Are you all right?"
Alice's eyelashes trembled as she looked at Beverly carefully.
Why was her mouth full of blood?
Beverly sat on the side of the bed and raised her head to look at Alice. Her eyes were filled with pain, fury, sadness, and bloodshot.
"Mother? I'll call the doctor. " Alice said and was about to walk out.
Her hand was held by Beverly.
Beverly held her, "Cough."
There was blood in her throat, and Beverly couldn't even speak clearly before coughing up another mouthful.
Only now did Alice know that the blood was spat out by Beverly. She suddenly felt dizzy.
"Mary, what's going on?"
