154 Broken vase- Part 5

After everyone fell asleep at the time of midnight in the Delcrov mansion except for three people- Lord Alexander, who was out in the garden with a cigar lit in his hand, the butler, Martin who walked through the floors like a ghost, Nicholas walked across the grassy gardened floors with his hands in his trousers. Alexander had never been fond of Nicholas before not that he was now. The man was cunning in every possible way due to which he usually didn't indulge in what the lord of Bonelake did. Lord Nicholas had not only helped him in the fight that took place in Mythweald against the witches but he had also made sure to keep tabs on his wife Katherine when she was sent to the South. He was grateful for it.

Alexander offered a fresh cigar from his pocket to hand it over to Nicholas. Nicholas lit it with the already burning cigar in front of him, "How long did Heidi stay in the establishment?"

"Close to an year in the beginning and a week later. Why do you ask?"
