You look worried.” She asked.“When will the young master leave the house?” I had asked with the hope of leaving for the hospital where Liam, my brother , is kept. Madam Joan looked at the direction of the door before answering “He will be living in the next few minutes, his driver is here already”She felt relieved. His absence would make it easier for her to leave the mansion.“Can I trust you to cover up for me in my absence?”“I will cover for you, young madam”I was suddenly overwhelmed by emotions.
