Belle Adams' Butler Chapter 128

Advertisement

By the time Belle and Lucas had returned back to the mansion at the time of the evening, they found two of the servants who stood waiting for them. Lucas handed the bags to the servant to keep it in Belle's room.

"Sir Lucas," spoke the maid named Cassie, "There was an incident this noon."

"What is it?" asked Lucas, he helped Belle out of the coat that she wore.

"One of the maids was cleaning on the left side of the wing of the mansion when the bucket of water fell on the floor. She said it was the rabbit's doing," said the maid with her brows knitted together.

Belle who heard this frowned before she realized which rabbit it was.

"Rabbit?" asked Lucas as if he were unaware of what the maid was talking about.

The maid quickly nodded her head, she said, "Ah, I mean Miss Belle's toy. Mr. Fluffs. It seems she saw the rabbit standing near the bucket. She told the rabbit might be possessed as she didn't touch the bucket and it fell with the rabbit next to it. Also that the rabbit was not there earlier when she had gone to clean it. We check with the other servants but none of them had gone up there except for her."

Barron, thought Lucas in his mind with his eyes that slightly narrowed. He had told to look for the culprit not to scare the servants in the mansion. If the reaper was going to cost a maid he would have Barron clean the house.

"Where is the toy now?" he asked the maid, "Did any of you find such strange behaviour with it?"

"Not so far, Sir. We put a cloth around it and locked it in one of the rooms. Also, she's running a fever so we don't know if she was imagining it," said the maid named Cassie.

Belle herself didn't know who to react to it. The Grim reaper sure did try to cause trouble, it reminded her of the time when she went chasing it around when Barron didn't know that she knew about him.

"We'll take a look at it. Ghosts and phantoms don't exist," said Lucas so that the maids and the other servants wouldn't worry about it. Lucas knew ghosts existed and so did the phantom of shows that often settled somewhere in the dark.

The maid bowed her head, "Dinner has been prepared. Would you like to eat now?" she asked.

"Get it to the dining room. Miss Belle can go change herself to something more comfortable," he ordered and the maid turned around and left them. Belle seeing the maid leave she turned to Lucas who appeared to have a grim expression on his face.

Barron was in the room who had been rolled and tied in a sheet of cloth by the servants to make sure if the doll was truly possessed, it wouldn't be walking around the mansion and try to bring any evil. When the door was unlocked, Barron who had been swaying back and forth out of pure boredom suddenly sat still not wanting to make matters worse.

The door clicked to be locked and the whole cloth was taken away from his face where he could see Lucas and Belle who didn't look pleased.

"It wasn't me," Barron stated, not wanting them to point out mischief he didn't commit. Lucas took a deep breath while Belle helped Barron by unwrapping the cloth and letting him free.

"Please explain what happened before I throw you into the fire to actually have you exorcised so that the hellhounds can smell and eat you," said Lucas as Barron was supposed to be undercover reaper instead of showing everyone that he could walk and talk.

"I was only following your words!" Barron wiggled himself, touching one of his ears as if to smoothen the fur on it, "You told me to go find the culprit so that's exactly what I did. I was right there when I saw something invisible tilt the bucket and the water fell. It was just an unfortunate moment and timing that I was there and the maid thought it was me," huffed Barron.

"What do you mean invisible?" asked Belle.

Barron turned to look at his saviour who had unwrapped him, "There was nothing there. The maid didn't touch the bucket and I," Barron placed his small hand on his chest, "Didn't have anything to do with it."

"You're telling me the bucket fell by itself," Lucas stated to have Barron nod quickly.

"That's right! Just like that. Swoosh," Barron moved both his hands in a pushing action.

Belle turned to Lucas and said, "I don't think there are any ghosts in here," at least not with what she remembered.

Lucas sighed and then asked Barron, "The maids want you to be exorcised."

"I am no ghost. I am a reaper. The Fourth Grim. I am not doing anything like that!" Barron spoke stubbornly. It was like every day his reputation was going further and further under the ground.

As Belle had said, Lucas himself had not noticed anything unusual in the mansion until now. Ghosts and Souls were different. Souls were the essence of a person that moved from one realm to another after death but ghosts, it could be anything.

A ghost was mostly a memory, a memory of pasts that often lingered in some places or things.

"We can probably have someone come home and make the maids believe that there is no ghost here," suggested Belle as it appeared that the servants were worried about what happened. All thanks to the reaper.

"Yes, that's one way to go about it. Go get yourself changed, Belle," he asked Belle who gave him a nod and then went up to her room.

"I told you it was not me," Barron complained over the false accusation, "Why would I go near a bucket of water?!" bucket and water equalled to him being pushed and picked up over and over until one of these two had felt he was clean enough in the past.
