“This was our place,” Ariana stated as they neared a smaller villa behind the main structure.

She led him inside.
The layout remained unchanged, yet everything was coated in a thick layer of dust.
As they walked through the villa, Ariana pointed to various rooms, saying, “This was the game room. And over here was the kitchen where Judy used to cook-she was incredible.”

She took Holden from room to room, describing their previous uses and the activities they had enjoyed there, adding in stories from their life together.
These memories were vivid for her, with each minor detail bringing back a distinct memory.
As Holden listened, a smile spread across his face.
They then arrived at what used to be Holden’s room. With a playful smile, Ariana said, “Your room and study were always off-limits. I remember sneaking into your study once and you chased me out so fiercely.”
Holden, taken aback, blinked and asked, “Was I really that bad?”
“You were,” Ariana teased, giving him a playful look. “You used to be grumpy and sharp-tongued.”
She pushed open the door to his room and suddenly paused in astonishment.
His room was spotless, as though someone had recently cleaned it.
Ariana stood frozen, her eyes wide, taking in the immaculate room.
Amidst their exploration of the rest of the mansion, this particular room appeared conspicuously pristine, starkly contrasting with the rest.
Despite the mansion’s general dusty odor, this room emitted a pleasant fragrance, and the bedding appeared recently washed. It gave the impression of not having been vacant for an extended period. The desk, too, bore no signs of dust, hinting at regular maintenance.

“What’s happening here?” Holden and Ariana asked simultaneously, their bewilderment palpable.
They exchanged a puzzled look, and after a momentary pause, Holden inquired, “Could there be any surveillance cameras?”
“It appears this place has been abandoned for years. Even if there were cameras, they’d Likely be non-functional by now,” Ariana replied, shaking her head.
They lapsed into silence once more, left speechless by the impeccably clean room.
They entered the room and searched for any potential clues left behind by the person who had cleaned it.
They meticulously combed through the room but discovered nothing noteworthy. Everything remained exactly as Holden had left it-no items missing or added, just remarkably tidy.
Failing to find any leads in this room, they proceeded to investigate other parts of the mansion, hoping to find cleaned rooms that could provide clues.
They headed up to the fourth floor, to what used to be Marley’s room.
As she approached the door, Ariana’s stomach tightened. Observing Holden’s movement towards it, she debated internally whether to steer him in another direction. Yet, she hesitated, concerned that any unusual behavior might attract unwanted attention.
