Chapter 681
Reaching the Adams' mansion, they stepped out of the carriage where the men and women wore expensive gowns that made the simple soiree look grand like a ball was going to be held in the time of evening . With the clouds that had come to hover in front of the sun, blocking any possible sunrays that could touch any living or non-living thing on the lands of Bonelake .
Penny walked through the entrance of the mansion as she placed her hand in Damien's hand, walking through the marble floor which was not carpeted . As the atmosphere was dark outside, candles had to be lit to spread light around the corridors and the other parts of the mansion that stood tall and alone .
Entering the room that was filled with guests in it, Penny found the girl named Belle who wore a lilac dress with a ribbon that was tied around her neck . She was conversing with two of the guests who stood in front of her and upon seeing Gerald Quinn, the young girl excused herself to greet him .
"Good morning, Uncle Gerald . I am glad you came for the soiree," her voice was pleasant as she spoke to him .
"I am glad to be here too," Senior Quinn responded back to her .
Penny saw them converse and she heard Damien whisper to her, "Belle's father used to help my father with his work," she gave him a nod of understanding . She could tell that Damien's father had a soft spot for the girl as he spoke to her .
While they were still conversing, Penny caught sight of the butler who arrived with the maids who carried treats and tea in the trays that they held . She stared at the butler for the longest time as he greeted the guests with smiles and polite words that he had to offer to them as he moved around the room .
Penny felt a sense of familiarity as she watched the man walk around the room . She had met him only once here in this very mansion, yet there was this feeling as if she had met him before . For a moment Penny had come as far as to question if he resembled her father before she shook the thought out of her head . No, she remembered her father's face and he looked older than the butler while the butler appeared to look like a young man .
She could feel a slight amount of headache form in her head and this usually happened when it was her erased memory coming to pass through the block that was made by her mother .
Caitlin who stood on the other side of her noticed Penny scrunching her face, "Are you alright?" she asked her .
"Just a little bit of a headache," Penny murmured and Damien picked up the glass of water from one of the servants who was walking by to hand it to Penny . Her ever-attentive master thought Penny while taking sips of water from her glass .
The hour went by as Penny and the others tried to get to know each other, "When are you getting married?" asked one of the men who stood in the crowd, "We heard you both are engaged," word did spread from the land of Valeria to the land of Bonelake .
