Sister, look at him!

Chapter 384 When the Rose Withers 7

After two days of rest, Carol was finally almost recovered and could get out of bed. After changing her clothes, she sat in the courtyard and read the newspapers of the past few days. Strangely, there was no news about the strange disease in the East District.

She and Edwin were attacked on the edge of the East End, and this was not reported?

It was normal that she was new here and no one knew her, but did no one know Edwin either? Or did someone suppress the news?

Thinking of this, Carol couldn't help but worry about Edwin again.

"Annie? Annie?" she called out to Annie, who had brought her tea.

"Miss, I'm here!" Annie quickly put down the things in her hands and asked worriedly, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Carol shook her head. "I'm just worried about Edwin, Anne. Do you know how he is now?"

She never knew much about Edwin's condition, but she heard from George that the Capet family no longer received any guests, claiming that they wanted to give their youngest son Edwin a good resting environment.

After hearing about the current situation of the Capet family, Carol became more worried about Edwin's health. "Can you find a way to visit him?" She knew that this question was unrealistic, but it was really the only thought in her mind at the moment.

Anne shook her head somewhat embarrassedly.

After all, the Capet family is a duke's house, and their two families are not equal in status. It takes a lot of effort to invite them to a tea party. At this time, under such circumstances, if they visit under such circumstances, it would be a honor for the other party to give a reply.

Is there really no other way?

Carol's face was pale, her violet eyes were full of melancholy, and her light golden hair became dull.

"Miss Carol..."

Anne felt endless heartache when she saw Carol like this.

Carol forced a smile, "I'm fine, Annie, I just feel a little cold. Can you get me a shawl?"

Anne nodded repeatedly and trotted back to get the shawl.

Carol picked up a book from the tea tray that Anne had just brought her, Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet.

A small stone flew past her and fell to the ground. Carol was startled and looked up in the direction where the stone came from.

Serinda, wearing a top hat, half of her head was exposed on the wall. She raised one hand high and pointed to the other side of the wall. That wall was not a high stone wall, but an exquisitely carved guardrail.

Carol understood what she meant. She put down the book in her hand, looked around, and after confirming that there was no one around, she tiptoed cautiously like a thief and walked to the carved railing.

After waiting for a while, Serinda appeared.

"Do you want to see Mr. Capet?" Serinda asked Carol in a low voice.

Although Carol was a little excited, she still kept her wits about her shoulders. "What does Miss Dodge mean?"

Serinda never liked those beating around the bush, so she said directly, "I have a way for you to meet Mr. Capet."

Hearing this, Carol calmed down even more, "Why are you helping me?"

Serinda laughed. She was very beautiful, the kind of beauty that was very aggressive. Her laugh was like a provocation. "You helped me once before. I'll help you back this time. Now we're even."

"How can you help me?" Carol asked her.

Serinda didn't say much, just told her to wait at home, and then she left quickly.

Carol had no choice but to return to her chair and wait patiently for Serinda's help.

Carol was wearing a red dress today, and the shawl Anne brought could also be matched with a white shawl. She came directly behind Carol, carefully tidied her hair, and put on the shawl.

Before I was done, another maid came over quickly, "Miss, Miss Dodge is here."

Serinda?

Carol stood up subconsciously, "Where?"

……

On the carriage.

Serinda and Carol were huddled together.

Carol felt a little uncomfortable because of the squeezing, but she couldn't say anything because she was sitting in someone else's carriage.

Serinda was also feeling very squeezed. This was her carriage, so she couldn't say anything. Her cheeks just felt a little hot.

"Elena is out today..." So she could only use this little carriage.

Serinda didn't say the last sentence, but Carol understood it. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart that the two Dodge sisters really didn't get along!

As if she saw something in Carol's eyes, Serinda suddenly spoke in a very low voice, "We had a good relationship before."

But later, for some reason, Elena started to bully her, ignore her, and speak ill of her.

Serinda suddenly said this, and although her voice was low, Carol was so close to her that she could still hear it clearly. She didn't know what to say, so she could only change the subject dryly, "What? I didn't hear it clearly just now."

Serinda seemed relieved and said easily, "Nothing."

There was a long silence.

The carriage stopped at the back door of the Capet family. The young man driving the carriage jumped out and knocked on the back door. He said a few words to the maid who stuck her head out, and the maid opened the back door.

Serinda nudged Carol and said, "I've asked around. The Duke and Duchess of Capet went out early this morning. Mr. Capet is also often not at home. Little Mr. Capet should be the only one at home now. Remember to hurry. I'll be waiting for you here."

Is this the solution?

It was the first time that Carol sneaked into someone else's house through the back door, and she couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed. But she was more worried about Edwin's situation, which made her choose to abandon her shame.

A figure nimbly slipped in through the back door, and Carol was led by the maid to a courtyard. "The master is upstairs."

The maid lowered her voice and pointed to the only closed window.

Carol nodded, lifted her skirt, tiptoed, and walked lightly up the stairs to the door of Edwin's room.

There was someone guarding the door, and that person's eyes widened when he saw Carol.

Carol quickly raised her index finger to her lips.

The man swallowed the exclamation that was about to come out of his mouth, and lowered his voice, "Miss Crane, why are you here?"

After asking, Parker didn't expect Carol to reply, but opened the door, "The master is inside."

Parker is the person who takes care of Edwin and is also Edwin's groom. Carol is quite familiar with him.

Parker is the person closest to Edwin, so he naturally knows that Edwin cares about Carol very much. At this moment, not only will he not stop Carol, he will also help keep watch!

Glancing at Parker with gratitude, Carol quickly walked into the room.

Parker also quickly closed the door and looked around vigilantly.

He was from the Duke's Mansion, so he naturally knew that the Duke's Mansion was not seeing guests these days. So the way Miss Clan came in was definitely not aboveboard.

We will talk about the safety of the Duke's Mansion later. The current priority is to protect Miss Clan from being discovered by other people in the Duke's Mansion.
