Her Story: Rise Of Tiffany

Chapter 419

Under the cover of night, there was complete silence in the Harper family's manor.

Suddenly, the door to the guest room opened. Melody slipped quietly down the stairs, careful not to make a sound. Seeing no one around, she took advantage of the moonlight to sneak into the manor's back garden. A few days earlier, Melody had begged Kenneth to agree to a 10-day arrangement, using a final farewell as her excuse to stay with the Harper family.

Now, with the 10 days nearly up, the box Felix had instructed her to find was still nowhere to be seen.

But Melody had searched everywhere.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

'Where on earth can the box possibly be?' she thought.

Melody's anxiety was growing by the second.

Melody knew that if she could not find the box, Felix would not let her off.

Therefore, she had to continue searching.

As Melody walked toward the back of the manor, in her peripheral vision, she caught a glimpse of the main courtyard, which still had its lights on. An idea struck her.

Melody had searched every corner of the manor under the pretense of cleaning, including Kenneth's room and even the quarters of the elderly Harper couple.

The only place she had not been was Romeo's private quarters.

Melody wondered if it was possible that the box was at Romeo's

However, Romeo was notoriously strict and traditional, and he clearly disapproved of her. If Romeo found out she had sneaked into his quarters, he would likely chase her out immediately.

'It's risky, but I still have to go!' Melody thought.

Melody gritted her teeth and, under the cover of moonlight, quietly slipped toward Romeo's quarters.

There were hardly any servants in Romeo's courtyard. He disliked anyone hovering under his nose, so even the daytime cleaning was done by the butler himself.

This made it even more likely that the box could be hidden in his quarters.

'But where could it be?' Melody thought.

Melody mulled it over and decided to take a risk. She decided that while Romeo's place still had the lights on, she would sneak over and peer through the window. 'Who knows what I'll find there?' she thought. Melody crept closer, moving quietly.

Unexpectedly, Alexia happened to pass by and when she spotted Melody creeping around in the dead of night, she called out to Melody, "Hey! What are you trying to do? Are you trying to steal something?" Upon hearing Alexia's voice, Melody froze.

Her back stiffened instantly.

This is bad. I've been discovered, Melody thought.

She turned back and smiled helplessly. "What are you talking about, Alexia? How could I possibly be trying to steal something? I merely ate too much for dinner and couldn't sleep, so I'm taking a stroll." "Taking a stroll?* Alexia asked.

She sneered. "If that is indeed the case, why were you acting so sneaky, like you were afraid of being caught? This seems like you have a guilty conscience. Now, tell me what you're really up to!" I'm telling the truth!" Melody insisted with an indignant tone. "Why won't you believe me?"

Alexia said, "Don't play games with me. My brother might fall for this, but I won't! You won't talk? Then I'll have to call for someone! Someone, come quick! Catch the thief! There's a thief here!" Melody clenched her fists in fury.

'Alexia is really hard to deal with!" she thought.

"Stop shouting, stop shouting!" Melody yelled.

She tried to stop Alexia, but it was too late.

Alexia's shouting had attracted Kenneth's attention.

"What's going on?" Kenneth asked.

Alexia said, "Kenneth, this woman has ulterior motives for staying in our home! I saw her sneaking around, and I could tell that she was up to no good! We should get rid of her as soon as possible. Just looking at this liar makes me feel nauseous!" Listening to her words, Kenneth frowned. "Alright, I'll handle this. You should hurry and get some sleep."

Hmph!

Alexia made a face and gave Melody a provocative look before leaving with her hands on her hips.

"Kenneth..."

Melody stepped forward, instinctively wanting to throw herself into Kenneth's arms, but Kenneth raised a hand to stop her. "What are you doing here so late at night?"

"I couldn't sleep, so I came out for a walk. Besides, what could I possibly be up to?" Melody gave a bitter smile. "I guess it's time for me to leave. After all, you're all treating me like a thief.

Kenneth did not say anything.

Melody bit her lip, trying to find a way out of the awkward situation herself.

"There are only a few days left in our agreement, and I don't want to leave with any regrets, so you can't chase me away, not until the end of our agreement," Melody said.

Melody knew Kenneth was someone who valued his promises deeply

Since Kenneth had already agreed to this arrangement, there was no way he would send her away now.

She was right.

Kenneth sighed. "Alright, this is the last thing I can do for you."

"Thank you," Melody said.

"Have an early rest."

After saying that, Kenneth turned around and left.

After Alexia's earlier shouts, several servants rushed over and looked around. "There's a thief? Where's the thief?"

Melody stared at them speechlessly.

'Tonight's search was in vain,' Melody thought.

Her expression darkened as she turned back toward her guest room.

100%

Sneaking around at night was not going to work. In that case, Melody thought that she had to come up with a legitimate excuse to search Romeo's courtyard during the day.

The next morning, Romeo had already gone out for his early morning exercise.

This was a routine he never missed.

Ryan had gone to the company, while Felicia had been invited out for a gathering. Alexia and Kenneth had also left for school.

In just a few days, Melody had figured out the habits of everyone in the Harper family.

Claiming health issues, Melody had not attended school for several days. Seeing that everyone had left the house, she picked up a feather duster and began dusting around, just like she had before.

A nearby servant said, "Miss, you can put that down. Let us handle these chores."

"It's fine. I have nothing to do anyway," Melody said.

She smiled sweetly. Melody's charming, lovely smile made it hard for people to dislike her.

Seeing that she could not dissuade Melody, the servant had no choice but to let her be.

Just then, another servant came in to call for help. "The butler has hurt his back, and we need to clean Mr. Harper's courtyard."

lit Melody's eyes

up, and she immediately said, "Let me help you with the cleaning. The manor is so large; it must be exhausting for you all."

""But..."

The servant shook her head and said, "It's better not to. Mr. Harper doesn't like outsiders entering his room." "It's okay, I'll just sweep the outside," Melody said.

Regardless of the servants' objections, Melody eagerly made her way over there.

She resembled a child who had found a captivating toy-innocent and completely free of ulterior motives.

The servant shook her head helplessly. There was no way to stop Melody, so she could only let her go.

When they arrived at Romeo's courtyard, Melody started sweeping the floor at the entrance, working diligently enough that

who saw her would have to compliment her effort.

Unfortunately, the Harper family had high standards. Merely doing household chores well was not enough to secure the position of a young mistress there.

The servants had varying thoughts as they quickly focused on their own cleaning, heads down.

Melody seized the opportunity and suddenly pointed at Romeo's bedroom, exclaiming, "Oh no, a rat just ran inside!"

"A rat?"

The servants were taken aback.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah," Melody said.

The Harper family's manor was so large that it was hardly surprising to spot the occasional rat.

"Quick, we must catch the rat before Mr. Harper returns!" the servants said.

"I'll help too."

Melody smiled and walked in openly.

The servants were indeed busy moving furniture and the large bed. Seizing this rare opportunity, Melody began to search everywhere.

After a thorough search, they did not find any rats, and the servants, sweating profusely, asked, "Did you perhaps see it wrongly?"

Melody did not answer.

As she rummaged under Romeo's wardrobe, she discovered a hidden compartment.

The compartment popped open automatically when "ed.

Melody was taken aback for a moment, then quickly brushed aside the clothes that were deliberately covering it. As expected, she found a box lying there! 'I've found it!' she thought excitedly,
