Arranged by one of the previous servants he had dismissed earlier in the morning.He strolled towards the wardrobe where the box was meant to be and pulled the doors open. And just as he had predicted it would be, the wooden box was there, forgotten. Noah wasted no time and carried out the box, then dropped it on the bed.

Come on!.” Lola cried in a low, scared voice. She suddenly thought that coming in here with Josh was a bad idea.. maybe she should have sat it out or listened to Aria and stayed back at home for lunch.“Stop shouting okay? I’m doing my best!.” Aria snapped back at the scared Lola before turning back to the book in her hands, but even her hands were shaky and would not keep still.Josh saw this and took the book from Aria. “Don’t worry, let me do this.” He said and turned the book over, shaking it till a small metal key fell from it.
