My heart palpitated heavily against my ribcage due to the adrenaline rush as I sat up on the grass, staring at the gory scene before us.
On the bench where Phoebe and I had been sitting lay the dead body of a young lady.
And it wasn't just any 'young lady' too.
"Ahhhh!" Phoebe suddenly let out a shrill scream, her hands flying to her mouth as she tried to control herself.
Her eyes flashed with terror when she got a clearer view of the girl on the bench.
Miranda... Her maid.
"Sir!" Just then, Lyra rushed toward us with some guards in black suits.
They surrounded the premises, helping me and Phoebe up while searching around to see if the culprit was still lurking around.
However, after the guards had helped me up, I brushed their hands aside, walking to the dead body with a frown on my face.
Now that I was close to the body, I had a better view of it and could make a clearer picture in my head of what happened.
