"Milady, you slipped off the stairs and tumbled down before falling unconscious." Reyna's reply did not affect Irene much and she gave her a thoughtful stare.
'Hmm, something huge and disastrous must have happened with Sylvaine. Otherwise, there was no way she would have remained unconscious for five days.' With that thought, she started walking again, her focus fixed on her notions rather than the beautiful surroundings around her. Reyna followed her quietly, confused by her Lady's behavior. However, she did not say a word about it.
'Will I be able to return home if I were to fall off the staircase again?' Irene wondered and just the thought of experiencing the pain of falling from such height made her shiver in fright. She shook her head at once. 'No way. I can't do it. I am not that brave. What if this plan backfires and I end up with broken bones and a wounded face? Will I have to live a life with a scarred face? Never.'
