Mysterious male escort is a mogul novel Chapter 2176

q“Okay.”

The maid took a candle and led Francesca to Robin's room.

The entire castle felt grim.

There was no water, no electricity, and no gas. During the day, they only had water, bread, and biscuits to fill themselves. At night, they could only keep themselves warm with candles.

However, food and water in the castle were scarce now, so they had gone through the past seven days with barely-filled stomachs.

The week was toughest for the injured ones.

In fact, Robin's wounds started getting inflamed after he finished the medicine.

Thankfully, Francesca was prepared with a backpack full of supplies.

Upon seeing the unconscious Robin on the bed, she fed him some medicine and cleaned his wound.

Meanwhile, Dominic distributed the food and water in his backpack to the others as he reminded them, “We could only bring so much since we didn't want to attract attention. Share this among yourselves first. We'll find a way soon.”

“Thank you. Thank you.”

They were all very grateful. To them, food and medicine were not the only things Francesca and Dominic brought; the two also gave them hope.

Francesca asked for some wet towels to apply to Robin's skin. After treating him with acupuncture, she gave out the medicine in her backpack to the others. She had brought limited supplies that were only enough to temporarily suppress the poison in them. Nevertheless, it was good enough considering their circumstances.

The group then started telling her about the things that had happened in the past few days.

After Francesca escaped, William was taken away. Before Robin could think of a way to leave the castle, it was locked down.

Then, someone arrived and announced that Charlie would take over the investigation of the poisoning. As it was suspected that the staff in the castle had something to do with the incident, the castle was closed off. No one was allowed to enter or leave.

When they heard the orders, everyone was shocked.

They all knew Charlie was the cousin who loved to bully William. As a matter of fact, William even suspected the former to be the culprit. It was ridiculous that the suspect was put in charge to look into the matter.
