Chapter 783
Corentin went out to take care of certain matters in the afternoon and left Ashlynn alone in the mansion.
She was allowed to walk around, but would be stopped if she tried to touch telecommunication devices or acted oddly…
any
Ashlynn took a stroll around the mansion, hoping to find a chance to escape, but she could see a maid following her with every turn she made.
She made a turn around the small hill ahead and reached a cliff that had a coursing river at the bottom of it. She stared down and wondered if she could escape by jumping down, when she spotted a pair of predatory eyes emerging from the water.
She focused on those eyes and realized it was an alligator, and there was more than just one. She counted more than four gigantic alligators.
She stumbled backward in fear and asked the maid, “Why are there so many alligators?”
Alligators were predators and it was extremely dangerous to be kept in such close proximity.
“These are Mr. Lloyd’s pets.”
Ashlynn paled. “What?”
The maid was named Amy, and she was the same maid who tried to eavesdrop outside the door. When she saw the shocked expression on Ashlynn’s face, she said in contempt, ” What’s there to be so scared about? You are such a chicken.”
Ashlynn did not argue with her because she was the only one who knew how horrifying this was.
She would have not have given it a second thought if someone else had alligators as pets, but if Salvatore was keeping them, it was a different story and she knew that he did not keep the alligators simply for fun.
“What…do they usually eat?”
