Adeline was beginning to sweat even in the cold night. The more steps she took, the more nervous she got. Not just nervous but also excited at the same time.
She was nervous thinking about what she was supposed to say to him if he said that he didn't remember her. And she was excited thinking what kind of reaction he would have if he did remember her. Would he also be excited to see her? Or would he be indifferent? Or even angry at her?
Adeline kept on walking further ahead thinking of all sorts of possible scenarios.
She finally reached the common room that was dimly lit with a chandelier full of candles. She was stunned to see that it was not some scary and cold cave but it was a hidden mansion. She darted her eyes around in awe and thought, "I don't think this is his hideout… this is even grander than our Palace. Who is he anyway?"
Adeline was amazed by everything that she was seeing, from stunning furniture to the sleek wooden floors.
