However, the maid didnt notice and asked, Miss, why are you here?
Alice hadnt expected someone would suddenly appear. Her eyes darkened as she put her hand in her pocket and felt the cold steel of a folded knife.
Miss, are you unable to speak? The maid frowned in discontent.
Alice wanted to take out the knife and stab the maid. But before she could act on it, she heard footsteps. Someone was coming towards them.
Alice quickly took out her hand from the pocket and said, Sorry, wrong room. Then, she quickly turned around and left.
Within moments, Alice disappeared from the maids view.
The maid muttered in confusion, Wrong room? Why did she take so long to say that? The maid shrugged and turned to knock on the door.
Miss Bennet? She tried the handle and found unlocked. The maid was perplexed to find no one in the room. Instantly, the expression on her face changed. Miss Bennet is missing!
The maid turned around to go and look for Rachel but saw her standing in front of her. She was startled.
Miss Bennet, where were you? Why didnt I see you?
I just went out for a while.
The maid widened her eyes.
You went out? But didnt you say.
Yes, but I couldnt fall asleep. The fireworks are too noisy. So I decided to go to the deck to watch. But I came back because I forgot to take my phone, Rachel explained as she picked up her phone from the table.
The maid was relieved.

Rachel checked the time on her phone. It was nearing nine oclock.
Okay, lets go, Rachel said in a low voice.
Rachel put her phone in her pocket, and they both left the room.
Alice, who had been hiding in the dark all this time, came out and stared in the direction Rachel went. She clenched the knife in her hand.
Rachel Bennet. Alice spoke with hatred.
On the deck, the fireworks display was nearing an end.
The colorful fireworks exploded in the night sky while the sea reflected it.
The salty sea breeze and the cool late autumn breeze mixed and gently blew over everyone.
Rachel looked up at the colorful fireworks and was lost in her own thoughts. The maid exclaimed, Miss Bennet, isnt it pretty?
