Navigating the sprawling corridors of the mansion, Jade's heart beat with a mix of excitement and anxiety.
The grandeur of the house seemed even more impressive in the quiet of the morning, the polished marble floors and elaborate decorations a stark contrast to the utilitarian environment she had known before.
She moved carefully, balancing the tray as she made her way to Clark's bedroom.
Arriving at the door, she hesitated for a moment, her mind racing with thoughts of how this morning might unfold. She took a deep breath, trying to steady her nerves.
"Master Clark, are you awake?" she called softly, her voice carrying a note of hopeful anticipation. She stood still, listening for any response, her heart pounding as she waited.
If there was no answer, Jade would assume her master was still fast asleep. In that case, she planned to return to the kitchen, where she would have her own breakfast and wait for Clark to emerge.
