She sat down beside Harlan, extending her delicate ankle, indicating for him to
fasten the anklet.
Harlan’s expression remained unyielding. An anklet?
He knew women liked to wear ornaments on their necks and wrists, but tying
something around an ankle was new to him.
He found it baffling and somewhat distasteful.
“Why do you want me to do that?”
Blushing, Mavis elaborated.
“Because if you fasten the anklet around my ankle yourself, it means you've
trapped me, and I'm yours. You can only like me.”
ANGELA'SLIBRARY
Just when Mavis thought she had succeeded, Harlan stood up, his face stern,
threw the red rope at her, and stalked to the balcony.
“I won't do it. I don’t have any interest in women. Don’t make me do such peculiar
things. And don’t come here anymore. Even if you do, I won't have the servants
open the door for you.”
The red rope brushed across Mavis’ face, causing a slight sting. But what truly
ached was her heart, and her eyes reddened.
“You're lying. You said you don't like any woman, but you Like Miss Brown.”
Suddenly, Harlan spun around, his eyes fierce.
“Shut up!”
Mavis dared not say another word and lowered her head.
When Harlan turned back around, she had already gone. He retrieved the gun
from under the pillow and resumed his cleaning.
After departing Peninsula Villa, Mavis wandered along the road. Out of nowhere,
she heard footsteps behind her. As she turned, a sack was thrust over her head.
In a damp, forsaken house, Mavis was backed into a moldy corner.
“What... What are you doing? I don't know you at all.”
Aman wielded a gleaming dagger, pressing it to her.
“Tell me, what did you see in Peninsula Villa?"
