Belle Adams' Butler Chapter 129
Advertisement
After hearing Barron speak about ghosts, Belle wondered if there was something in this mansion which she had never noticed before but then Lucas didn't know about it too. When dinner was done, the servants went back to their quarters as usual and Belle, Lucas and Barron walked in the corridors of the mansion that was quiet and empty except for them.
Both Lucas and Belle carried a latern each in their hands as they walked towards the corridor where the incident had taken place.
"This is the place Mr. and Mrs. Adams had locked before I arrived here," said Lucas when they reached the spot.
"Did they say why they locked it?" Belle asked him. The Adams mansion, Belle had lived here for more than seventeen years now but in those years, her parents had kept this place locked or more like the rooms and the corridors of this place.
"It is because people often ended up dying here," said Lucas. Both Belle and Barron turned their head to look at Lucas.
How did Belle never come to hear about this before?
"Since when?" asked Belle.
"Before I came here. There were many butlers who died by the hands of the scavengers and most of the butlers were often found dead here and it has been happening for some years. Before your grandparents and parents acquired this mansion," said Lucas something which her parents had tried to keep away from her, "I thought it was strange how everyone was scared to walk through this place."
Belle remembered once how she had sleepwalked through these very corridors to find herself awake in the middle of the night. The temperature in this mansion varied. Though most of the places were cold because of the weather of the Bonelake, this side was colder.

When she had asked about it to her parents, her parents had told her as it was just three of them, there was no need to be using all of them.
"Was it just the butlers?" Belle questioned.
"Butlers are the only ones who often walk by themselves through the corridor at the time of night. It is easy access for the scavengers who want to feed on someone. An easy midnight snack," Lucas raised his hand with the lantern and walked through the corridor that had the other two follow him, "Some were found dead while some, some died because they had no more soul left in them. Your soul just happened to be something they treasured. Wanting to savour and eat," he said to her.
They walked through the corridor with light in their hand but everything appeared to be normal right now, "My parents never tried to exorcise the mansion?" Bella asked him.
"I believe it was your parents who did it but there was nothing more to be found or removed," answered Lucas. Barron walked forward, trying to find what had pushed the bucket because right now he was the demon bunny rabbit in the eyes of the servants of the mansion, "Do you feel the coldness, Barron?"
"It's colder than the realm of the dead. There must be something here," replied Barron but he could find nothing.
It seemed like this mansion was indeed a special one. According to her relatives, this mansion was supposed to have riches or it was hidden somewhere but she doubted anyone had come to walk here especially with the death that had taken place, turning it to be ominous.
Lucas had tried to find out about it after hearing Mr. and Mrs. Adams speak about it in the beginning years of him being a butler here but he had never found anything out of order.

"I saw the bucket fall as if someone kicked it but there wasn't anyone there. Someone just pushed it," muttered the rabbit walking back to the place where the incident had taken place.
"It might be the ghosts," on hearing Lucas say this Belle gave him a questionable look, "Not the kind of ghosts you think. Memories. Strong memories that often get captured in a place. Like a memory taking place over and over again, "This mansion has been passed by one family to another so we don't know where the memory got spilt and by whom. It must be nothing serious."
"I will have everyone know not to come to this side of the mansion. Maybe a little farther away to be sure," Belle said looking at the dark corridor that stood in front of them.
She was curious to hear more about this ghost as it sounded interesting. The three of them started to walk back from where they came when Belle who had been walking suddenly felt as if someone in front of her appeared with a stick in hand and she raised both her arms as if to stop it but nothing happened.
"Belle?" asked Lucas seeing how Belle had frozen in her spot.
"I thought I saw someone in front of me," she put her hands down and said, "I am okay."
When she got to her room, she said, "I think I know someone who I can ask about the house. Not my relatives, but I heard an old maid once tell that there was a keeper of this mansion who looked after the mansion. I don't know if it is before or after my grandparents arrived."
"We can possibly look for that and try to solve this mystery of where the rumour of this house containing richness got created," Lucas responded back.
As the morning arrived, Sister Isabell was called to the mansion to provide a fake ritual for the sake of servants and this included Mr. Fluffs who was covered around with smoke and finally given back to Belle.
After Isabell left, Belle along with the two, this time carrying Barron along with them so that he wouldn't cause unnecessary fear by his movements was taken to the man's house who once used to look after the Adams' mansion.
