The Runaway Groom Chapter 782
They opened the front doors to reveal a grand hall with a tall ceiling and two separate curved staircases on both ends—just like the castles one would see in movies.
There were up to eight Franconian servants, standing in a row and adding to the classical presence the castle carries.
“Mr.Jefferson,” Pierre greeted Isaac.
He was the butler, a tall and slender man dressed in a fine suit, and he appeared rather advanced in age.
Isaac introduced Irene.
“This is my wife.We will be staying here for a couple days.”
“Ma’am,” Pierre greeted her respectfully, while introducing the servants and what their job entailed.
“However, they would mostly stick to cleaning the building as it isn’t usually unoccupied.I’ll have them prepare your room.”
As Irene nodded in understanding, he deftly directed the other servants to work, novelebook since he knew best what they were good at and what tasks they were best suited for.
Naturally, the castle was kept flawlessly clean despite its size.
“I shall have a bath prepared for both of you, and dinner will be ready at seven.Would that be ideal?” Pierre asked.
“Sure,” Isaac replied and turned to Irene.
“Let’s go upstairs.” Irene nodded.
Soon, it became clear that Pierre knew the castle better than Isaac, and he was always waiting for new orders as he brought them ona tour.
After all, Isaac might find something satisfying or that it needed improvement.
Most of the second floor was a guest area.
To the left was a huge rectangular room with stained glass windows, decorated with towering curtains.
Rows of single-seat couches were arranged tidily in a U-shape arrangement, with square tables separating each couch.
The simplicity and the openness made it a good place for discussion and meetings.
There were also other visitor areas, along with the dining room and recreation rooms.
The bedrooms were on the third floor, and there were six of them, each having its own separate living area, bathroom, wardrobe, balcony, and stained glass.
It was a drawback that the castle was too huge, and it was quite a trip if one needed to do anything.
In fact, Irene was tired before they finished the tour.
