Chapter 470

After Rupert left, Sylvia leaned weakly against a column, her soul lost, her face as pale as the snow swirling

outside.

She steadied herself and walked forward, the bright red ribbons overhead fluttering in the wind. They danced

with life-unlike her, who felt utterly lifeless.

Back in the guest room, Sylvia collapsed on the bed, her whole body aching. The crisp, clean sheets brought her

no comfort. Eventually, her eyes drifted closed in a haze of exhaustion.

Rupert sat on the living room couch, his fingers pressed to his forehead, long lashes half-shuttered, hiding any

hint of emotion.

"Mr. Rupert, you're back!" Reese's voice was bright as she hurried over. She noticed his coat tossed over the sofa

and quickly picked it up, smoothing out the sleeves.

"I've organized the closet. Wantto hang this up for you?"

"Yeah," Rupert replied distractedly.

Suddenly, he froze mid-thought, then shot up and headed upstairs.

Reese blinked in confusion and hustled after him, breathless. "Mr. Rupert, wait! | can't keep up!"

They reached the walk-in closet, where Rupert was already searching through the shelves.

"What's wrong?" Reese asked.

“Where's the red scarf?" Rupert's voice was sharper than he realized.

Reese flinched, then explained, "It was getting old, so | asked the maids to box it up for storage. Wait, | think

they might have taken the boxes out to the trash-I'll go-"

She didn't finish. Rupert was already gone, disappearing down the stairs.

He found two housekeepers by the garbage cans outside, setting a fire.

"Ugh, | don't want to touch anything she's had her hands on. Smells cheap," one sneered.

"Keep your voice down," the other muttered.

"Con, Tristan's said as much about her. You think he's wrong?"

They laughed, tossing the red scarf onto the flames. Without thinking, Rupert plunged his hand into the fire,

pulling the scarf out-burning his skin, but saving most of the fabric. One corner was already singed.

He glared at the women, his face blank but his eyes cold and dangerous. "You're fired."

"Mr. Rupert, please " The maid's face went white, but he cut her off.

"Get out."

Clutching the damaged scarf, Rupert turned and walked away.

Later, Reese spotted Rupert's

reddened hand and rushed over,

anxious. "Mr. Rupert, are you alright?

It's just a scarf! If you like, | can

buy

you a dozen more."

He pulled his hand away, voice icy. "I don't like people messing with my things."

Reese froze, her heart aching. She bit her lip. "I'm sorry."

"Mm."

He wasn't angry, but Reese saw something in his eyes that was worse than anger -something that sent a shiver

down her spine.

Rupert brushed past her and hung the now-scorched scarf back in the closet, right next to the one his mother

had knitted for him. As he closed the closet doors, a tube of ointment on the dresser caught his eye. sWw

"Are you feeling sick?" he asked.

Reese perked up. He still cared,

didn't he? She picked up the

But Sylvia wasn't allergic to jasmine. He knew that.

His eyes darkened, unreadable.

Reese, seeing him lost in thought, tried to step closer, but Rupert snatched up the ointment.

"I'm going to see Edwin anyway. I'll take it to her myself."

Before Reese could say another word, Rupert was gone.
